Asking Filipinos the most Insane Filipino Stereotypes - TRUE or FALSE?

[@Kimberly67922]

not all filipino obsess with kpop, most filipino appreciate kpop and k-drama but not obsess.

[@grimdarkseid]

True.. me, i straight up don't watch korean dramas (only suspense or slice of life genre) and don't listen to any k-pop.. i only liked their food. 😁

[@theguywhoasked-r7e]

Nah they definitely like alot

[@AngryKittens]

Eating dogs isn't just Filipino. It's ancestral to the Austronesian people who lived on islands. So other Islander Southeast Asians (before most converted to Islam), Micronesians, Polynesians, Islander Melanesians, etc. But it was already disappearing during the colonial period. It is only really retained among the isolated Cordillerans of northern Luzon, hence why most incidents happen there, but nowhere else. Everywhere else in the Philippines, the tradition is long gone. And it's completely illegal nowadays (except for ritual purposes among Cordillerans).

[@HiItsMe-ip8cj]

GenZ the one who obsessed to kpop even though they can’t understand the language, eventually they force themselves to learn Korean language and Culture itself than their own Filipino Culture that’s terrible. It’s 100% accurate I’m not blind

[@snoozerelli]

Paul is so lucky he hadn't experienced anything relating to dogs being eaten here in the Philippines. I experienced it twice. I was a child and I saw drunk relatives chase our old dog with a steel bat and they cooked him as pulutan. I'm traumarized for life and a lot more protective of our pets. But there's another time when we helped a puppy get adopted.. But the puppy was adopted by a poor construction worker, and when the puppy grew up to be a beautiful dog, the dog was killed and cooked by the father of the one who adopted the dog. It's sad, but I have to understand the level of poverty some people have that lead them to do that. Some people.. Also, sex tourism here is real. There's even some documentaries about it/relating to it. I saw some about underage prostitutes in the Philippines.

[@janreyfilipinasabuan740]

"FILIPINOS OBSESSED ON KPOP!" LMAO! Not all Filipinos are obsessed! And now that we have PPOP many of us Filipinos are patronizing it!

[@diannecagadas5720]

It's illegal to eat dogs in the Philippines 😭

[@grimdarkseid]

Yes it's illegal, but sadly they still do it mostly in northern parts.. especially here in benguet or around CAR region. I grew here in baguio and personally i don't eat dog meat but sadly i knew a lot of people here who eats dog meat. I have seen it many times they grill it like letchon and chop it after grilling. 😢

[@TonkotsuTo]

Probably not in the far north though xD

Kind of refreshing to see someone else not like Jo Koy. He helped put us on stage but did it by enforcing stereotypes. He also encouraged American tourists to come “They speak English!”, so how many stupid fools are gonna go to the Ph expecting to be catered to?

[@AngryKittens]

The green card thing is kinda true, but also kinda false. The women are definitely marrying someone of better means. But in most cases, they are also genuinely attracted to their husbands (because of Filipino beauty standards). It's also not specifically for a green card. But for a good financial provider, hence the fact that it's not just American men and a lot of women don't even want to move abroad (or move back to the Philippines after a while). There are true gold-diggers though. And that's usually obvious when there's a huge age gap or a difference in attractiveness. But in most of the people I know in real life who married foreigners (most of them through online dating), the marriage is genuine.

[@alec187]

I think Jo Koy jokes about his personal experience and labels them “Filipino culture” assuming all Filipinos could relate to them.

[@jarredmillan3811]

I can definitely confirm the “Filipino time”. We scheduled a dinner at our house at around 5:30 but my relatives came at 8, to which their excuse was “time is simply a suggestion”.

[@ioannispolemarkhos7364]

"colonial mentality" is what happens when your country is the world's longest continually-operating colony, mixed with the fact that the "Filipino" identity is entirely synthetic and defined more by the people who conquered them and had put them under their cultural hedgemony rather than the typical process of ethnogenesis that the Japanese, the Koreans, the Chinese all underwent; there was no "Wars of Unification" in the Philippines before the Spanish because the geography lent a lot to the decentralization of identity into local geographic boundaries- you have Ilocanos, Cebuanos, etc. even when they declared independence, it wasn't the entire country at first, because Tagalogs were thinking of something different from the people who established the Negros Republic. To this day, Filipinos hadn't created an identity that would make them capable of actually competing with the Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans- instead they become their employees. You cannot have a Filipino historical drama because Filipinos had no history before the Spanish. All you had were external accounts. There was no Filipino historiography before the Spanish. The Philippines is fundamentally tied to its colonial past and therefore Spain- even Jose Rizal wanted the Philippines to be a part of Spain, instead of being "independent"- and sure enough after World War 2, when the Philippines was the richest country in Asia, since Japan was destroyed, Korea was destroyed, and China was destroyed- within 20 years, the Japanese had rocketed itself into an economic powerhouse, soon followed by the Koreans and the Chinese- while the Filipinos only justified Rizal's pessimism over the Filipino's inability to sensibly run their own independent country. These Filipino-Americans are fundamentally Americans. When they think, they think *in English* not Tagalog, and they can't do anything about it- they, as a people, have no power to do anything about it. All they can do is parrot what some academic from one of America's coastal areas say, and hope it'll achieve something.

[@RiceSquad]

Actually the 2 guests are not Filipino Americans. They were born and raised in the Philippines

[@ioannispolemarkhos7364]

@@RiceSquad Unless they lived in the rural areas, I assure you, the only real thing that keeps them from being Fil-Ams is citizenship. The same could be said about many other countries that have a strong dependence upon the United States. If tomorrow, the Philippines somehow became America's 51st State, it wouldn't be a large culture shock, anymore than if Hawaiians moved to, say, Texas. American culture is all-pervasive, and this is to the detriment of Filipinos because it's not just the entertainment, but the ideologies and all sorts of psychological baggages associated with American culture. For example, the idea of "stress" was something entirely foreign to Filipinos until expats started to introduce it to them, along with whatever is fashionable in American society at the time.

[@nicksantos7586]

totally agree with your first paragraph but I have to disagree with the second. Natutunan ko sa histo class ko sa Ateneo, na meron History ang Pilipinas bago pa dumating yung mga Kastila. Actually, kung babasahin mo din yung mga sulat ni Rizal bukod sa Noli at El Fili, napakarami niyang account tungkol sa kultura ng mga Pinoy bago dumating yung mga Kastila. Suggest ko basahin mo yung annotations ni Jose Rizal sa Morga's chronicle Sucesos de las Islas Filipinas. Can't say I know the topic by heart cause college histo classes and gradeschool/high school Araling Panlipunan classes were ages ago, but the Philippines DOES have history prior to the different colonial eras. But yes, great point on the first paragraph. That's actually why it's annoying that Bonifacio & Aguinaldo pushed for Philippine independence. They drove it from Rizal's message, but failed to see the bigger picture na hilaw pa yung Philippine identity kaya kahit naging mapayapa sila, naging very divided tayo (lalo na yung mindanao). Sad, pero agree, kaya tayo nagka colonial mentality.

[@albertunlayao783]

[@mirfam7505]

It seems they should really clarify about the dog eating thing in PH because most people who haven't live in PH for long kind a misunderstand it thinking it's a common thing in the whole country. To be honest, it's true that some and very few old tribes still existing in PH eat dogs perhaps for some kind of old ritual or traditions but eating dogs in general is illegal in PH. Also, it's not a common thing to eat dog in PH because it's mainly for pet and not for consumption. Most people when someone specially non-local and sometimes even local asks them "Why the meat taste good", tends to joke and tease (because it's a common misconception that PH people eat dogs in general) and say "It's good because it's dog meat" when in fact it's sometimes just combination of 2 or 3 meats in one dish most of the time beef and pork, or beef and pork and goat meat specially in some provinces. So yes, if you go to old tribes, you may see them eating dog meat as part of their tradition, ritual or something but the general majority like 95% of people in the whole country don't eat dog meat. Most of the time, they just make it a joke to scare people because other non-local people think PH love to eat dog meat. If you live long enough in PH, you'll know that PH people love some humor and smiles in life so they love to joke around things.

Sex tourism was prevalent during the 70s and the 80s when the US bases was still in the Philippines, and ships would also dock at the Manila bay. Thus, Manila would have brothels and nightclubs in Mabini Manila.

I have a sad truth, but there are, Ihave heard to my parents that they were forced to eat dog meat, but also that my grandparents ate dogs, but now adays there illegal, but in the provinces dog meat is much common, due to how less strict the policd are in the provinces,

[@manawari_corner989]

huh? just because your grandparents had a history of eating dogs does mean that it is common in provinces. No, it is not. I am from the province and I never witnessed anyone eating dog meat. How can one eat dog meat if there are a lot of seafoods in the provinces and pork as well?

I would say that during mid-80s - 90s "sex tourism" was very rampant in the Philippines. I can still remember cousin made a documentary for a school project about pedophiles and sex workers. Dog-eating is an old traditional sacred ritual up in the North. According to my grandpa's cousin during the war (WWII) is some part of the Philippines they eat whatever protein (bugs, snake, dogs, etc.) that is available. Also, the biggest contributor of the "dog-eating Filipinos" stereotype was tale of Human Zoo in Coney Island, NY back in 1905. Truman Hunt brought some Filipino tribes men to the US and fed them with dogs.
