americano o filipino???

^^ Why have such worries...? I humbly wonder what caused this to be of utmost concern for you? Be concerned with YOUR OWN LIFE'S HAPPINESS rather than be too concerned about others. Who one marries and Why, is their own business.

Again let me reiterate, and boldly I may add... For most cases, it is not only the man these women marry.. its is often the COUNTRY, THE LAND OF PLENTY, OF MILK AND HONEY and TO LIVE IN SUCH A COUNTRY that these women are marrying for. So let them be.

But if you're really really concerned about the lack of attention the world is giving Filipino Men.. then I suggest you stop worrying and strive to do something. What... hmmm.. there are two options that I could name for you right now.

BE A HERO, BE A WORLD HERO
Do something great, incredible, astounding... something utterly nearly superhuman.

Be an applauded sports champion, a world leader for peace and prosperity, an author of a worldwide blockbuster book of eternal influence, be a Living Saint of Humanity.. and then appreciatively say often and loudly about your country and your countrymen. Show the world what a True Filipino Man is, present to them the Blossom of Greatness whose seed they seen before in Jose Rizal. Show them what a rare and noble spirit that shines bright in a Filipino and that gem of a soul can only be mined in the Islands of the Philippines.

Or

BE A GOOD FATHER TO MANY, BE A TEACHER TO MOST
Good men are not born they are raised, taught and disciplined to Rightness.

If you think you understand the qualities what makes a Filipino outstanding in goodness then preach about it, teach about it. Strike them while its hot, take them when they're young. Even in our own soil Men have suffered a notoriety of being rapists, child abusers, wife-beaters and most commonly, Men who beds a girl makes her pregnant and goes on and beds another. (BUT TRUTHFULLY, THIS OCCURS EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD). So change this instead, make boys grow up to be Men of Respect and Responsibility. Teach them the right moral values, Discipline them to not submit to their instincts. Train them to critically evaluate and challenge themselves to achieve their full potential!

You could start when you have own sons... Be a father which a son can emulate, can look up to, can strive after to succeed over. My own father is truly someone like that. I know I will become a true success of a person, of a man, when I have succeeded where my father has failed, bested him at his best but I still have a long way to go.. its because he is a bar set very high.

But I tell you now Prince, I will not waste time worrying but working towards my own development, striving after my terrible purpose which I feel God has bestowed to me. So I humbly suggest you do the same. Start to focus on you, because sincerely no person is perfect but we should always strive for the ideal or accept we are just human and like the Beatles sing, let it be. Let things be.

Here's another thought you could ponder, coming from a Man... "He who is not Master of Himself cannot Hope to be the Master of the World." ~Confucious.

kung asa ka happy ug in love adto ka..

[dessay]

my personal preference is Pinoy.. maski pa daghan na mga titas/aunties ga advice nako to find myself a white guy kay mga filipino men are cheaters and users kuno. Sige lang, dili man tanan, naa man say tarong, wala palang ko kakita...nyaheeheee

[kiwiboy]

Filipina akoa...
wla pa ring tatalo sa kagandahan ng Filipna....

[chygurl]

way pili oi basta happy lang mo together

[omad]

if I were also a parent and that somebody courting my kid is either jobless, drug addict, didn't finish school or just a bum, I won't hesitate telling them to do the same: "marry a foreigner". I know it's not a guarantee that she'll be happy, she won't get abused, she'd live a comfortable life but with the options stated above, it's worth the gamble. marrying a Filipino who's got no ambitions in life for sure will have a known result: their kids will just end up suffering.

so Filipino men, this will serve as your challenge, prove your girl's parents wrong. :mrgreen:

Since I'm married to an American let me tell you guys a couple of things, mostly advantages:

1. They don't CHEAT, or scared to because of the following reasons:

----> Lahi ang pinay kaysa amerikana. Ganahan sila sa ato culture coz we value family, we cook, we clean, we respect the husband, we actually serve the family.

----> Mga amerikana if not sobraan ka liberated, ma iya-iyahon. My money is mine. But your money is mine too. Para nila dapat ang bana equal nila all the time. Dapat ang bana moluto pud, molaba, mobantay sa bata. While atong culture, although there are some filipina women who work and modern na ug pangutok, pero innate gyud na sa atong culture nga ang nanay gyud mangunay, moatiman sa pamilya, moatiman sa bana. In fact, the only time mohimo ang padre de pamilya ug chores kung nanganak or nasakit ang wife. Mga tatay maihap ra ang higayon nga manlaba, mangluto, manghugas sa plato. Of course except home ikatatays lahi na pud na. Pero diri tanan dapat FAIR.

Nya nahan mo ana mga guys? Kapuy pa mos trabaho then ig-abot nimo sa balay way limpyo, daghang labhanan, way luto.

----> Mao na. Nindot gyud ang pinoy wife. Then moingon ta nahan ranang mga foreigners magminyo ug pinay kay himuong maid. Well, mga milyonaryo ray naay maid diri, pangutan-a bisan kinsa... ato tanan diri. Mahal ang maid.

---> Tungod kay they understand the culture difference dili pud na sila mamugos nga magluto gyud, manglaba gyud, wala silay expectations ana nga aspect. Mao if ako mangluto, manglaba, nindot na kaayo na para sa ako bana. Jackpot!
Pero back home? Must ang KAMAO MANGLUTO, MANGLABA, sawayon ka sa imo mother-in-law basta gaya-ya lang ka. Except kung sobraan namo kadatu.

FACT: ALMOST ALL FILIPINO MEN CHEAT SOMETIME IN THEIR MARRIED LIFE

---> TINUOD. Tungod kay basta minyo naka dapat you stay together for the rest of your lives. Which means, ang wife magpaka martyr gyud. Pero diri? Magcheat gani ang husband, right sa wife labi na kwartahan ang bana to collect alimony then bayad pa gyud siya child support every month kung naay kids. Pwede pa divorcean. Bahala ka dyan!

All in all, diem, those women who are forced to marry americans for the citizenship... kinsay hayahay? Ilang mga anak. Mestizos, mestizas, uli sa pinas artista dayon . BUT ironically we think they're very gwapos and gwapas and we embrace them sa ato show business.

Ingon pa ni God the greatest sacrifice is when you lay your life for another. These women laid their lives for the sake of their poor family, ilang nanay ilang tatay nga ug mangatiguwang mangamatay nalang way hospitalay.

FACT: Filipino women who opt to marry foreigners to better their lives are mostly uneducated... and VERY poor, trabaho lang intawn ug manufacturing plants, they marry foreigners not just for themselves but for everybody in her family. Para sa mga educated women, nakagraduate ug college, and nindot ug trabaho, that option is desperate and kahiya-hiya.

Tungod ani nga rason, we filipinos should start opening our minds, our country is hopeless. The poor always stays poor. I don't blame very poor women who hardly have decent food in their tables nga mamahala nalang.

Ang kanindot sa pinoy diay in my perspective is... beauty ra gyud.

[splendid moonlight]

^ waaaa ne. beauty ra gyud?

pero if i do come to think of it, a number of guys i know have cheated on their gf/wife at one time or another. i guess there is now quite a number of our men who take our women for granted.

[cool]

asa inyong ganahan.kamoy magboot.
