Asking permission from the daughter's parents is like stating that a guy's intention is honest and sincere.

[@omilet6658]

yes

[@rio.mizu716]

True🥰👍

[@dauntlessofficial6739]

​​​@@rio.mizu716 This is also an act of respect to the Girl parents, since mostly or sometimes the guy is going to girl house to fetch or visit the girl.

[@Nonono.one1]

Asking permission to court a girl from her parents doesn’t mean your going to marry her.

[@mayieogab]

I think "Ligaw" (including asking the parent's permission) culture exists because there's a mindset behind that "you date to marry." Meaning, "The purpose of dating someone is to eventually marry them." It's like, "Why would you date someone if you're not planning to marry them someday?" Filipinos are also very family-oriented (I think this is one of the major factor); family is the number one priority in their lives. So that's why families need to be involved in this kind of "serious" commitment haha. But seriously, this culture isn't as strict nowadays; you can make ligaw na without asking your gf/bf's parents permission. But you’ll need to introduce yourself to their parents eventually, especially once you’re in a relationship.

[@rio.mizu716]

Nice comment 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@ElleCampbell-b3m]

I know a Filipina who lives in Canada, and he told the Canadian that wanted to date her to ask her parents permission to go out with her

[@mmbatrider2]

For me date is just getting to know, build up relationship trust but it is not panliligaw because you can go date more than one you are the one holding your strainer who fits your criteria

[@darkseer7027]

its not really like a permission but more on introduction to the parents to let them know who you are with. You know you don't want your parents to worry about and worry about who you are with.

[@rio.mizu716]

Interesting 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@myspeakingmind4065]

indeed❤

[@marks4553]

Pinoy ako, pero I sometimes update my girlfriend & now wife with proof, not an obligation or a culture thing, she is doing the same din after I did that, it's a mutual thing so she wont worry too much where i am and who i am hanging out with.

[@rio.mizu716]

So sweet 🥰🥰🥰

[@se_amable001]

yeah. that's a form of respect

[@kayeaye2774]

It’s just not asking for parents’ permission but to also win the parents favor. If you win the parents trust and love it’s much easier to win the girl’s love and trust.

[@rio.mizu716]

Definitely 🥰🥰🥰

[@KAZUUUUMOM]

Do you know what crazy? Courting can even takes few years before you became official if the guy is really sincere he doesn't mind the wait because usually people in here would like to pursue their study first or dream before taking the next step and as the guy who are really sincere he would wait until you are ready Also meeting the other party parents is to show you can be trusted with their daughter and your serious about the relationship between you two I think personally it's sweet how determined they are to show they are serious about it Makes you feel more relief and secure about picking this person.

[@rio.mizu716]

😳😳😳😳

[@crushkita4534]

I think the "ligaw" part when a guy ask his girlfriend's family for permission is like showing sincerity and respect to them specially if the girl is still living with her parents.. its like saying their child is in a good hands.

[@rio.mizu716]

So sweet 🥰

You two are delightful to watch and listen.You discover good things about yourselves that reflect us about Pinoy culture I usually overlook or unnoticed. It makes me feel good that the country gave you much beautiful moments.

[@florentinojrvelasco9447]

The "asking parents for permission" is very tradional way that was used by the older generation of filipinos to show sincerity of the guy to the girl he is courting. But in todays generation it is not really a requirement and it is rarely use. But it is a great way to show your sincerty to a girl because it takes guts and effort to even ask permission to her parents.

[@rio.mizu716]

Sweet🥰🥰🥰

[@MoodyBabbles]

Filipina here, the photo thing is not really a requirement. But my husband does it because maybe he just wants me to feel assured. Because he does it so I do it too. But it really depends on you both. But it is always appreciated 😊

[@rio.mizu716]

That’s so sweet 💚💚💚

[@jurgen0312]

The reason why there is LIGAW in the Philippines is to show ur real intention sometimes or most of the time u have to introduce the guy to ur parents and the guy need to meet them to prove that the guy intention is pure thats why sometimes when they have family outing its an extended family outing because they include their bf and gf... For what i know korean use mbti and vlood type for compatibility i just dont get how they base it on it... Coz sometimes opposite attracts 😂😂

[@rio.mizu716]

That’s so nice culture 🥰🥰🥰👏

[@kycc00]

8:53 for me as a filipina (who recently was in a relationship with a filipino who migrated and kinda grew up in the US), i dont require my partner to send a selfie, like what juwonee said, just an update because we do it with friends and family too. sometimes its more of who is my partner with, like if i know them or theyre my friends too, makes me feel excited, happy they're hanging out, makes me feel included, not left out kinda way

[@rio.mizu716]

I like this comment 🥰

[@fars7346]

the perks I would say about asking family permission is when you got their approval, expect that filipino family will somehow considers to invite you on any occasions gathering. Something like that.

The word "Ligaw" is a misspelled version of the spanish word "Ligar" which means the same thing. This culture of Ligaw has been observed during the colonial times and was passed down generations to generations

[@rio.mizu716]

I didn’t know that👏👏👏

[@diannehawes9829]

Rio you're so funny. Poor Rio , if you go to your home country, go up to people, make eye contact, smile and ask "What's your name?" you would freak them out. I can't imagine you avoiding eye contact and not smiling. I think your love language is caring - you make people feel comfortable by showing a sincere, genuine interest in them and truly wanting to hear their story. And in interviews, so many times you "rescue" others from embarrassment or feeling awkward by switching attention to you by being cute or acting silly, and then move on to something else. 💚💚💚💚

I think it would help to add a camera for the cameraman, and quickly switch over to him when he talks, so that it doesn't look like guests are talking to a friendly ghost. Just an idea. Anyway, this is a good interview. In fact, I think it's so good that people would enjoy watching the full conversation, even if it lasts for more than 397 hours.

[@Xela07727]

“Ligaw” or courtship is a practice that has been in the Philippines for centuries. Courtship is (YES) a permission and a respect to the woman & her family. Asking permission to court the daughter from her parents is a form of respect & also your introduction & proof that YOU have the means & the full package to be in a relationship & to be the husband that the daughter is looking for. Naiba na lang ang tingin sa “Ligaw” because we’re embracing the western idea of dating, we’re becoming liberal. But I really like the old ways of courtship, where the man have to fill the buckets with water from the well with 20 minutes walk from the girl’s house to the well, chop the woods, and ofcourse serenade.

[@rio.mizu716]

🇵🇭🇵🇭💚💚💚💚

[@lucyflores2846]

It's not an obligation to send photo but we do it ..with our own decision because we love selfie...we do it not only for bf/ gf but to family and friend also...

Yepp i see it as this way too

[@rio.mizu716]

[@philoyou26]

It's not in general. Juwonee is right. Maybe in suspicious relationship.

[@DomonCasuey]

I didn't expect there to be more episodes of the podcast with Juwonee 😆Yehey. Juwonee is truly 'Pinay na Pinay.' The courtship she describes is the traditional one here in the Philippines. Gen Z or some liberated girls living in Manila usually don't go through the courting stages. They are more open with their feelings and don't want to prolong the 'LIGAW' stages, or they just do the 'LIGAW' through text or messenger..😄😆 The challenging part is asking permission from the parents to court their daughter. In the CALABARZON area, you can only make 'LIGAW' at the girl's house, where you bring her gifts and gifts for her dad (usually wine or roosters for sabong). The trick is to win over her parents to help you win her heart

[@rio.mizu716]

Wowowoowow thank youuu 🥰🥰🥰 be happy everyday! I’m also single 🥰

[@joyram4813]

6:30 Filipina born in the Philippines but grew up in the US and married a Filipino who is born and raise in the Philippines. Regarding taking pictures of your ganap and location is for the safety of your love one to let them know who they with and where they are Incase of emergency. I learned this from my boyfriend then and husband now. 9:50 Growing up in the States. Dating is more of a to hookup with someone. it can be a fling, something just for fun or something for more serious relationship. Me being a Filipina. I’m not dating to just have a fling and have fun, but to be in a serious relationship and have fun. So I make sure if the guy that wants to date me is also serious about me is to pay respect to my parent and to show them their real intentions to their daughter.

In my point of view as a still mostly conservative Pinoy, 9:40 - Its a law of nature... even animals have their own style to win their mates. Its an exciting stage for both parties actually. So don't miss and don't waste those precious moments. It's where good memories thrive. 10:00 Its part of respect to the parents, You should also win their hearts to prove your sincerity. Their approval and blessings does make make it more meaningful and special. You know, Filo parents grieve also on their kids failed relationship... That's how it is here. More commonly in the provinces and country side but I don't think its still common in Manila....

6:47 It was actually not a duty to send your partner a picture when you hanging out with your friends. It was just Filipinos love taking a picture when getting together then sharing it with you partner is kinda sweet or thoughtful for us. BUT it was not a DUTY or a responsibility to the relationship. Sometimes saying who’s with you is enough.

[@rio.mizu716]

👏👏👏👏👏💚

[@mizuhayt]

Back in the day, courting a girl includes doing "harana" or serenading a girl. You sing in front of the girl's house while she's watching below you from the balcony. If she likes it, she will come out and meet you. If not, she will pour a bucket of water over you or just simply ignore you lol

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤣💚💚💚💚💚

[@mariannebantog4569]

sending a photo is not a requirement or not part of the culture here in the philippines... maybe its just an assurance to someone who have a trust issue or sometimes the guy or the girl just want to update with a picture... because in now generation loves taking pictures and show it to many people example me, im in a relationship i really love updating my bf regarding hows my day to have a conversation with him, so i message him with a picture just to share my day instead of posting it to social media.

[@rio.mizu716]

[@Itjusthappened0]

That picture sending to your boyfriend is not a requirement or culture in Philippine dating. Personally, filipinos just LOVEs to take picture and SHARE experiences with their love ones but they do not do it as a requirement when in relationship. So, even if you dont send a picture to your bf/gf, its okay not unless if you're dating an obsessive person

Most of the time the "meeting the family stage" comes after the girl decides to go out with the guy officially since most filipino families respect the girl's decision on who she dates. 😊😊💚 And it's not like the family members will be the ones the guy would date 😂😂😂😂

Very fun and interesting interactive conversation topic! You and Juwonee have the same vibe to the point that I think you can be a couple… hmmm I grew up in the Philippines and went to migrate in the US as a young adult so basically I am well aware of the dating culture in the Philippines and the US. In the Philippines there is the introduction, courtship, confirmation stages. The introduction is where one gauge on how you feel the first time you see someone then if you don’t either of you feel positively attracted the same way then it is a no go. When you pass the intro stage you move to courtship / ligaw stage. Pinoys has a closed family orientation so in the process of the guy proving his sincerity to how he felt to the girl plus it is a casual situation given that the guy is not bringing his own parents to ask permission to make ligaw. It is just a guy being brave and honest asking the girl’s parents permission and most likely the girl already told her parents about the guy and how she felt about him. During the confirmation stage both the girl and guy need to be definitive about each other feelings. If the guy realized that he’s feeling for her is less than before the ligaw, then he can tell the girl but the guy will need to accept the risk that there is no going back. In the US, basically the dating culture is the same as in the Philippines minus the parents permission but the only added important factor is the compatibility in personality and sexually. If one of these factors is not met in compatibility then it is hard to move forward with a relationship. Again, you and Juwonee can make great couple because both of your screen presence jive neatly with each other. I will be your first loveteam fan. Painting!

[@sb19atinas]

As you know, Filipinos are family oriented. It's normal for us to have boyfriends and girlfriend to go on outings, hangout in the house, etc. When you present someone as your boyfriend, it doesn't mean to get married right away. It's more of giving a sign of respect to the family. They have to also trust you. Coz on dating you will have late nights out. Being together alone. The family should know that you are someone trustworthy to be with their daughter and you are not out to take advantage. It is more of sincerity. Good intentions. 😊

You know before if a guy wanted to 'akyat ligaw" they need to serenade the girl after dinner time. So you need a friend or you know someone who knows how to play a guitar, either you sings or a friend/s sing for the guy. Then the girls's family'will allow you to enter their homes for your introduction/start of courting.

Yeah, the photo thing isn't really "proof". It's more like "Look, I'm here, having fun." I'm a guy, I do it to guy friends too who ask where we are. It's easier than texting, it's fun, and chances are they'll decide to join in. It's more a friends thing, rather than a relationship thing. I mean the general chat of my friend group is FILLED with those pictures. The "proof" thing only happens when one of them is already suspicious of the other. Which is a red flag. It's more common among some MARRIED guys though, who go to inuman frequently. Their wives usually ask a lot of updates, and sending a photo will be the easiest way to make them stop asking. But in a normal relationship, it's not common.

the family permission is kinda fading though. however, i guess when it comes to marriage a lot of guys still asks for permission. but yeah its not as common as before but its still definitely there.

No no, sending photo with your partner is not mandatory. 😅 Most people i know would just send msg to update their partner, like me. I rarely send photos to my boyf unless im with a very close friend where we naturally take selfies. Then I have something to send. While my boyf, he likes sending random pics. Like if he's in the parking, he's in the office. We never really demanded anything to each other we just kinda do whichever we prefer. And yep we do send photos to our girl friends too. So its not really a trust issue thing, more like, just wanna share my day to the people im closest with..
