Do they eat dog? Yes! My friend told me so, he prefers the black dogs. I traded lunch, their Chicken Adobo is the bomb! Did I eat dog? Dog does not look like chicken, no Ive never eaten dog. To all my flip friends in Delano I love you.
Fair is fair, good is good, and true is true there's no room for anger or reason to be offended. There's nothing anyone can say to break my stride.

Racist!
*First of all before you go out with a filipina woman find out first her family background and how the way she raised up.
* if the woman open up about s*x the first time you talked then expect she's offering her body for the exchange of money.
* real people not afraid to showed u if they're lying or not..there's always a lot of way to find out the truth, and there's a lot of excuses for those liars and fake.
* don't become a victim, don't play either..knows who u are dealing with.
I a filipina too, and i never depend myself to anyone not even with my own family for a long time..it's so sad for me to read this..i know im not belong in that kind of person but the impact still hurt me because you people talking about my race. It's not only filipina living in this world..so not only filipina doing that stupidity..
Some say potehto, some say potahto.
It's sad that human beings have a moral inner world, and they have to subject all their opinions to fit into their own moral order. This is what causes the most strife.
Pilipina women, like all women and all men who live in poverty, are desperate, and have no chance in life, will use "immoral" means to get ahead. This is necessary for their survival and for them to propagate their DNA into the future.
Why be negative about this? Why be supportive and bleeding heart about this? It's life. This is how it is. Est.
We are all humans, and we behave remarkably the same way when we are put into any certain situation.
I helped a couple of them but without any interest just to help her.
It is very difficult to discover which of those beautiful young girls
are truly interested in you or in your money or as a Visa.
It looks that most of the philippinos like to use girls without any responsability so the country it is full of poverty. One of their best dreams it is find an American of any kind including a 99 years old
to support her and help their families. For me is is some way as a prostitution.
But at the end the ones who are responsable of that situation are the philippino males the govermen. that country it is Catholic so according their laws it is forbidden the divorce no matter how bad it is the husband a girl could get into the jail.
In brief most of the comments about the philippinas are true but not all
the basic problem it is due to the poverty
Indeed, i agree Canadians are the friendliest people in the world.
I think you are stereotyping, there are many Filipina who are successful in their own ways, very affectionate, passionate, trustworthy, honest, caring, considerate and most of all very loving.
Unlike some snotty stiff upper lipped Brits I happen to know; who are more than willing to exile their young 10 year old kids for months on end into some "public school" with it's housemasters, switchmasters and headmasters... (Known as private schools in Canada and the USA),
Filipinas are family oriented folks who look after their kids and families. Children are welcomed...not exiled. Filipinas are culturally different... and they work incredibly hard sending remittances and Balikabyan boxes full of goodies home to help feed their families and pay the rent. If you date one who is an expat, expect expect to accept and follow that cultural sensitivity
Sure there are some tough stories out there... I've been through a couple of them, including a failed attempt at a marriage of convenience (Mexican), and I presently have a Filipina as a close friend who works hard to support herself and her family.
She is nothing like your 'top ten' stereotype.
I am thinking he is referring to the desperate women that the Kuwaitis lure over to their country with promises of a safe and lucrative job, then systematically enslave, assault, rape, abuse, degrade and treat like chattel (er... null class citizens?) Those women have an awful enough life in poverty in the Philippians. Those who have not already endured years of abuses and just gone with the idea of prostituting themselves in order to have money, are determined to find a man who will commit to them so they can have a family and honor their cultural onus to care for their extended family.
However, yes, this post is racists and show very little empathy. Any woman interested in the men who posted to it should definitely consider their responses when examining their character. I certainly do!
