naa gyud bitaw mayabang in nature. Labi na nang mamakak. Makaya pa cguro kung tinuod ang mga ginapagyabang. Unta naay makaexplain or makadiscover na genetically linked ang pagka mayabang.hehehe

[Kujaw]

Yes, naay mga pinoy mga hambugiro jud...pero dili lang bia mga pinoy.

ambot ha....sa diha pa ko, known dyud kita mga Cebuanos as "Frugal" Ba-sin taga Luzon or taga Bacolod/Ilo-ilo ba kaha na inyong gipa sabot.

I agree with the sayings of Illonggos nga "Ang kwarta ginapiko ginapala"Thats 100% true.Kung dili ka mo gamit piko og pala dili gyud ka kakwarta sa negros.Sugarcane cane industry baya ang Negros.That term was being mis interprete until now.Bisag asa lang gyud naa gyud hambog nga tawo.

Are Filipinos mayabang in nature? YES, we are. Its natural for human beings to be mayabang, but at different levels. The only sad thing about us, Filipinos is that we tend to brag about how stupid our country is... and that is really really stupid.

FILIPINOS ARE NOT MAYABANG IN NATURE. FILIPINOS ARE MADE MAYABANG BY INFLUENCE.

Still, statistics is needed to verify the extent of being mayabang, how mayabang, what, when, where...

I even think this will make a good dissertation to all those studying socio-political sciences out there. What do u think?

One big factor? Spanish culture of crab & colonial mentality- look! Rizal even mentioned this in his novel "Noli Me Tangere". and that was a century ago!
