Filipino stinks? - 5M's

[@web4cad]

I used to have a neighbor (here in the USA) who was a Filipina; she was always working very hard in the garden, but she never smelled bad. If anything, I think she went the extra mile to take excellent care of both herself and her husband... even to the point that it was sometimes annoying to her husband.😂

Hello Ate Jo, I hope that everything is going well for you. It is nice to know more about you! Take care of yourself and a big hug!

It's definitely a Filipina thing, but it's also a woman thing in general, regardless of what country she originates from. Other than this particular smelly issue, there's hygienic people & extremely un hygienic people in both sexes & in all countries. In my home Western country (for example) most people wear their outdoor shoes inside the house & most don't wash their hands after going to the bathroom/toilet. This includes chefs in restaurants...I know as I owned a restaurant for many years. Personally, it disgusts me how they can be so dirty, so un hygienic. So excellent infrastructure & education doesn't equal better hygiene.

[@keepitreal1547]

@PeterHD-hj6bi It's disgusting hey. We sacked our chefs after catching them not washing their hands.

Great idea for a series. Consider keeping the word onscreen with a phonetic breakdown throughout the discussion of its use.

[@filipinamindset]

This is noted, Dale! 👌🏼

[@LGR605]

I agree Dale. I have come across some other piñas (in the States I believe) that KZbin Tagalog. I believe Jo could do as well if her time allows.

[@hectorhernandez-zd8et]

Good to see you Ate Jo! A big hug and the best wishes to you and family! Salamat po Ate Jo!😊😊😊😊

[@hectorhernandez-zd8et]

Teach me tagalog! I'll try my best to learn, if you are a good teacher, I'll be a good student 🙂🙂🙂🙂😊😊😊😊

Learning a language includes learning about the culture and mindset of the people using the language. This is great content. Regarding "mabaho" - when living abroad I was told that people from Northern Europe often smell like milk (most of us are lactose tolerant), and many smell like somewhat pungent milk. I guess what we eat and drink contributes to what we smell like. Vinegary sounds ok. 😊

I have been married to my Filipina since 1981 and we speak taglish around the house. We both enjoyed this video. American men often ask me where did I find such a good wife. At the local stores we are known as " the cute couple".

[@filipinamindset]

Aww. Thankyou!😊

Hopefully you will make a tutorial part of every vlog. When I spent a year in Korea I was told that the Koreans smelled terrible. And, yes, they certainly did. Kind of spicy and pungent. But the Koreans said the Americans ( I was in the Army) smelled like sour milk. After my 2nd time getting food poisoning at the mess hall I switched to eating off base. After about 2 weeks I noticed I couldn't smell the Koreans anymore. But the Americans STUNK! Just like they said, sour milk. To the point that I tried to hold my breath as much as possible when around a large group of people. So I think "body odor" is largely dictated by diet and environment.

Mabuhay

[@ningayeti]

Mabuhay gwapa nga babaye, I hope to visit the Philippines next year and perhaps to eventually live there permanently. I have considered ALL of the following as potential places to live: Toledo Cebu, San Carlos Negros, Tagum Mindanao, Tres Martires Cavite, Bohol, Dumaguete Negros, and finally Legazpi Bicol. I plan to spend 6 months and visit all of thse places as well as several others, but I am 66 and don't want to learn multiple languages. Since I haven't decided on which of these places I will end up living permanently, in what language do you think that I should concentrate and become proficient in? I know that English is widely used, but Filipinos are often shy to use it and I don't want to cause the famous "nosebleeds." I have learned a "VERY LITTLE" Bisaya, Cebuano, Ilicano, and Tagalog. I have learned "NO" Bicol or Waray. Which single language do you feel would best help me to integrate with the biggest % of locals of the various provinces and to be understood when buying in a shop or market?
