I agree with him. It’s a lost cause. Soldiers are not like agents, we are more physical because the state of mind we have is dying all the time. At war it’s a very high percentage that you will die and be forgotten. Agents just play tricks, unless you were an ex soldier. So soldiers have a type of communication that is always edgy, because if we don’t act right move right speak right we die. So it would be faster for two soldiers to marry than agents. Y’all don’t get married y’all cat and play pranks with each other; scams and crap. We pull cards hard, that’s why you couldn’t get around him, he was being serious and clear the whole way. No trick of the tongue, so you kept getting choked up. It means he is an upstanding man, and ex soldier with a good character that doesn’t play games. He’s rather go to Vietnam and die with his fellow fallen soldiers than play around with these new aged children. You guys are so one world government it’s a joke you pull flags like you are your own nation. These nations are all United and the same in the same evil, LGBTQ+. He’s telling me don’t do it, these whole world is selfish and self centered. Marriage is no longer honorable and it’s no one to fight for. It’s no one to defend that is honorable. No example of love to drive the youth anymore. Everyone wants to hurt each other with no reason at all. It’s not logical, just emotional. Innocent men minding their business get attacked instead of getting known. Filipina Pea wants to hurt him for the truth, but that’s an upstanding man and soldier that you can rely on to speak clear to you. He survived war where many of his fellow soldiers didn’t, so he won’t play around with his borrow led time. Either live life right and pure of heart or die and leave, that’s how we think. Y’all playing minority report with life. We don’t get along with civilians too well because of the difference of thought and intent. Filipina Pea thinks she has a an enemy to fight, and isn’t realizing she is her own enemy. Talking to me would be like that. Exposing how silly you are in the mind, and you need love.

[@ChristianClark]

This issue is Very, Very and Very common. I can connected with this because I have heard and seen this issue a whole lot over the years with the Women from the Philippines and Indonesia and Cambodia. Good Blessing that I have never experience it. The women assumed that American men are extremely rich as Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk, which is Very Not true. Most people around the world are not taught the difference of Currency value. That's why so many Filiphinas assumed that 100 USD is big money, which it is 5,730.21 PHP. It seems a whole of money but it is only pocket change, small amount of basic coins to flip with. Since I was in high school of the 1980's, It is said that Filipinas are attracted to American men because they assumed that the men has money. By the magazines and movies and series that they are watching. Hollywood movies of American life are totally stupid BUT the dear Filipinas think it's the real deal. When I was in high school, I had a Filipina pencil PenPal. 12 years before the internet came. I was in Western Pennsylvania and she was in Hong Kong with her parents. We wrote paper letters to each other, every monoth. After high school, her last letter that I got from her, she have said that she met a Japanese guy with big money and live as an American life style. Of course, I was heartbroken and sad but now, hopefully, I do hope that she is okay now. Maybe. One of my all time favorite movies is called, El Norte, year 1983. It's about a poor brother and sister in Guatemala who look at American magazines and they assumed that all Americans are super rich. The brother and sister had discover the very hard difficulties of living in the USA. The movie is about lost desires for a better life in USA, Sad Ending. I do Strongly Bellieve that so many Filipina fall into the DayDream as the movie, El Norte. To have a better life with an American man in the USA. The Amazing Great Anthony Bourdain had Great Love for the Philippines. He love the Filiphino a human among humans searching for actual, meaningful connection. He knew and seen the poverty but the people love Art and Music and Food and of course Singing. Filipinas have Amazing Culture....the women of the Philippines should focus on their culture and not try to be Americanized. If a Filipina really love an American guy. It's great and amazing but don't try to fit in and try to be "rich and famous". There's always a downfall when you step out of something really special and a Blessing. Always happens.

Before I hooked up with my Filipina, she knew full well that by American standards I was poor. She was great about that. I helped her through nursing school. She earns her own money, helps her family and saves. We have two beautiful daughters. 15 years in, it was the best decision of my life, she's a wonderful gal. She was a province girl, from Biliran, very traditional, very trustworthy even though half my age. She is a little hard headed, but not in a bad way at all. No problems, no drama.

I dated 2 Filipinas in the USA before I went to find one in the Philippines. The first one I wish I never let go of, and the second one I wish I never met! The first one had only been in the USA 2 years, the second one had already been here 15 years.

I dated 2 Filipinas and married one. The first was 18, me 24. Everything was good, till she got a job. Then, she cheated on me. The 2nd one was a security guard at LAX. We dated for 5 years, but when I got her into nursing, she cut the rope!! Now, no more communication. The last Filipina I was with from 2011, married in 2014, but divorced by 2019!! She was a bank Teller for 26 years in Manila. Came to the USA in 2007, to work as a caregiver. She still does work at 67!! She is jealous, insecure, but loves dinning out, expensive shoes- purses, and telling me I'm the Devil. Even though I paid for everything, and never had her cook, or do laundry!!

The reality is that any woman of any culture will become westernized after living in America. Even Filipina KZbinrs who have never set foot in the US are becoming westernized through YT fame.

[@fordguy61mi]

I got lucky. I brought a Thai woman back to the US in 2017 and got married and she never got Americanized. She worked at a Japanese restaurant with other Thai girls and they hung out and she really was in a little bubble and stuck with her culture while she was here. Now we've been married for 7 years and I'm retired, and we're moving back to Thailand to live at the end of this year. She's excited about going home. If you ask her if she likes the US, she'll say not really. I knew about women in Southeast Asia when I came to the Philippines as a young Marine in 1982. I never forgot the beauty of the women and how nice they were. Then I met my wife through an old Marine Corps buddy who lived in Thailand and went to visit him in 2015 and the rest is history!

​@@zetaone2669 Thank you for sharing your compelling story. It is quite obvious you are a good man. It is most unfortunate that the ills of the west you sought to escape by going to the PH nonetheless ruined the marriage you formed there. Congratulations for going back to find another good woman, and this time you won't make the mistake of bringing her back where she can be corrupted by the things we leave the west to get away from. At 60, my life has been co-extensive with events in the US during the entire period of modern so-called "feminism." It started out to be simply about equality, which is actually the dictionary definition of the word. I think all right thinking men are on board with the concept of simple equality. But over the decades it developed into something sinister. Not content with equality, so-called "feminists" progressed to constant criticism and vilification of men, and popularization of truly abhorrent and dangerous terms like "toxic masculinity" and the "tyranny of the patriarchy." Whole successive generations of women in the west, especially the US, have been brainwashed by feminist propaganda into thinking they MUST pursue professional careers over marriage and family and child rearing, and that choosing the latter would make them a "failure." This has even included harsh criticism of women who have rejected such views in favor of more balanced or traditional values in their lives. I saw this in my 20's, and I knew then that many of these women would progress into middle age and come to regret their choices, facing life alone and childless, or divorced, having rejected the very things that bring men and women together to begin with. I am a lawyer, and in few professions has this progression been more apparent than in mine. Sadly the things I anticipated as a young man have come to be. I believe eventually equality and freedom of choice will remain - as they should - but the ills of modern so-called "feminism" will be left behind on what I like to call "the great garbage pile of human history," along with bell bottom jeans, sun worship, human sacrifice, and mood rings. This will be a long time in happening though, and it will not be in our lifetimes. In the meantime, we can go to the Philippines or other countries in Asia and elsewhere where women are still truly feminine, and who genuinely respect good men and have not fallen prey to the propaganda in the west. I have been to the PH three times so far, and each trip I stay for longer. I work for myself and have the freedom to work while there. I am happy to say that I have met a number of truly wonderful, lovely, and feminine women there, who have restored my faith that there are women in the world worth spending your life with. And to the point here, I have met filipinas who do not want to move to the US, contrary to the ongoing propaganda from "feminists" about them just wanting money or visas. Marrying one and staying there will prevent the evils of so-called "feminism" from ruining them and destroying our happiness with them. A large number of modern American women are unhappy, and although most will not admit it, they cannot stand to see a woman from Asia simply being truly feminine and making her man happy. They abhor it, so they take it upon themselves to brainwash filipinas in the US if given the chance. To other men here I always say, Go East, young man. Find yourself a truly feminine woman in the Philippines, and stay there with her. Thanks to you and the Pea for this excellent video, and I wish you all the best in finding real happiness again.

[@xavierkoolat6926]

Today's Filipinas have a different attitude towards marriage than their mothers had. Today's Filipinas are beginning to take on Western ways and want more independence. If they can enjoy their own career with a guaranteed income adequate enough to be independent of a husband's income, these young Filipinas will begin to behave the same way Western women behave in the USA, UK, etc. The traditional marriage is threatened by the equal earning power of today's career women. The traditional housewife is no longer a natural choice for women with increased educational and/or financial earnings. It's the same movement Western women went through about seventy or eighty years ago.

Dated a Filipina before, but felt like I could never truly trust her or especially her family. There was always this feeling of being taken advantage of, or them trying hard to do so. I remember giving her a nice phone to only be told that her mom took it and sold it behind her back since she (the mom) needed cash. Her family was always whispering in her ear about getting more money from me. Can't even imagine having taken her back to the US and what would have happened. Ended up meeting a wonderful lady from Brazil who is my best friend and partner for the last 16 years. Adapting to her culture was easy and I felt at home in Brazil from day 1 - but never felt that way in the Philippines. You might be "wanted" in the Philippines, but for what is the question 🙂

A few gold diggers make 90% of all the other women look bad (regardless of nationality race ethnicity or culture) . I know this from experience. But remember every person is different and can never be compared to the next person. The goal is to find the right healthy minded women or man regardless of ethnicity. Americanized disease ( US citizens are consumer centric indoctrinated - it’s the American way ) . Worse - Social media trains both men and women to obsess about wanting more more and more things that we don’t need , and love unfortunately gets converted into what more can the other mate “give me “ to feed my consumeristic greed indoctrination- that is so prevalent here in the USA.

I married a Filipina and brought her to the states. She was very beautiful. Within a year she had a boyfriend. A few months later she dropped him in favor of a guy who earned more money. Shortly after that we were divorced. Since then I have known about nine other American guys married to Filipinas who had the same experience. The thing is that Filipinos do not see the world like Westerners do. What we see as wrong, they do not. They live in a completely different universe, therefore you will never understand them after marriage when they show you the true person for the first time.

If a gringo was to go over there he would only see the surface stuff. How to you expect to get married to a person you don’t understand. Different values, different ideas of right and wrong. Who to separate the good women from the bad when their definition of good and bad is different? You have to spend many years in a country to start to understand their culture and even then you will never truly be one of them.

[@majorronaldmandell7835]

@ : Truer words were never spoken Amigo! You hit the nail right on the head! Thanks! I lived in the Philippines for six years right among everyday Filipinos. Only after two years was I able to start to see beneath the surface, understand how their minds (their culture) worked, and their values but I could not except it. No westerner could. I believe that certain things are inherently wrong which they do not. For instance, I believe that tricking or scamming someone out of money is wrong. I believe that theft is wrong. I believe that cheating is wrong. I believe that not repaying loans is wrong. In the Philippines none of this is wrong, because God would never let me do anything wrong, and thus the fact that God let me do it is proof positive that it was not wrong. Because of this there is no guilt in the Philippines for anything one might do. It was God’s will. I believe that it is foolish not to save money for future emergencies. Filipinos do not believe in saving a penny under any circumstances. Pure and simple. Only a cheapskate would save money, and one of the worse names to be called in the Philippines is “cheapskate”. It’s a grave insult, and shameful. Everyone knows that God will provide, and money must be spent immediately before the day is out. This also applies to people in business. As they take in their profits, they spend them immediately, thus at the end of the month they are unable to restock their shelves, and thus go out of business. But it wasn’t their fault. There was nothing wrong with their business model. It was God’s will. All Filipinos know this for a fact. Provided with more money by a relative overseas, they will reopen their business and run it in exactly the same manner, saving not a penny to restock their shelves replacing what they have sold. Again they will have to shut down their business, and once again it was God’s will. Provided with more money, they will do exactly the same. Filipinos are incapable of learning from their mistakes or those of others, because no mistakes were made. It was all purely God’s will. This is why the only successful businesses in the country are run by Chineses, Indians, and Spanish blooded Filipinos, because their culture is different. It is the same with safety. Nobody takes any safety precautions at all. Not a single person in the country wears seatbelts, including the police. People walk across the street without looking left or right, men grind metal without wearing goggles, I have seen welders welding without face masks. You see, if God wants you to get hurt or die, that is what is going to happen no matter what you may do to avoid it, so it is stupid to take precautions. On the other hand if God has no intention of you being harmed, it cannot happen no matter what you do. It is the same with pregnancy. If God wants you to become pregnant that is what is going to happen, no matter what precautions one may take. If God does not want one to become pregnant it’s not going to happen, not matter what you may do. That’s it! No ifs ands or buts, and any true Filipino will tell you so. A promise is not a promise in the Philippines, because there is no obligation to fulfill it. As a Filipino, one says what sounds good, not what one intends to do, therefore you can never count on anyone’s word. If someone tells you that they will meet you at a certain place, they may or may not show up, and the next day when you see them they will mention not a word about it. They will not apologize nor explain to you why they did not show up. After all, they had no obligation to do so. Their mind is at ease. They feel no guilt. If you are invited to a party, you may show up to find that there is no party, simply because the person who invited you thought it sounded good, or it would please you or others if they invited you. I once showed up for a birthday party and when the guy who invited me answered the door, he asked me, “What are you doing here?” I answered by saying, “I’m here because you invited me to your birthday party here”. He then said, “There is no birthday party here”. I then asked him, “So, why did you invite me to your birthday party here?”, and he responded, “I didn’t expect you to come”. These kind of things are frustrating as all heck to a Westerner. Actually, in the Philippines there are very few obligations. As mentioned, one has no obligation to repay loans, or fulfill promises, or be faithful to a lover, or husband or wife, or do practically anything else. This means that one never feels guilty. One also has few responsibilities in the the Philippines. A man has no responsibility to support his family, or look for employment. Most men their never work a day in their lives, at least in the cities. After all they have no responsibility to do so. Favors in the Philippines are not free. No one would preform a favor for a friend without a profit. This is why Filipinos constantly offer to do favors for their friends. This is one of the big reasons that Filipinos seek out foreigner friends. They are cash cows, never even realizing it. Filipinos earn money this way, They earn money this way. Someone you think is a good friend may offer to take your car in for repair, or to buy you some windshield wipes since they are going to a car parts store themselves, or to pay your power or water bill since they are going to pay their bill at that office themselves, but each and every time they will make a profit off of it by scamming or cheating you. But, they have done nothing wrong in the Philippines. It’s just normal activity. I mean why in the world would anyone in their right mind do anything for anyone for free? The definition of “friend” in the Philippines is far different than in the West. In the Philippines a friend is not someone you can trust, not someone you can count on to keep your secrets, or have your back. He or she is not someone you can count on to take your side, or even feel happy at your success. Most especially they will not feel happiness at your success. Instead, they will feel extreme jealousy, envy, and feel wronged by you. Your best friend can be counted upon to feel dislike towards you. No, I’m not making this up. You can’t make stuff like this up! Ron

My friend turned me towards your channel after I started an online relationship with a Filipina and this video I paid close attention to. This video actually made me feel even better about this girl. She's working on her own to get into the US as a nurse and she already has a US nursing cert (I verified it myself to be real) and she's been the one doing a lot of money management for her mom and moving money between her aunts and uncles living abroad and still in the Philippines so she's used to seeing and handling money. Within the next few weeks I'm actually taking a just over 2 hour car trip to meet her Filipina aunt, grandmother, and american uncle that all live in the US. Maybe she'll westernize when she gets here whether she comes in on her own in a few years (visa retrogression) or if I bring her in myself, but I'm really happy with everything I've seen so far especially since we only have a 7 year age gap. I'm hoping and praying for our success, but ultimately, we'll see.

Hi Pea & Carlos I'm 65 divorced with 3 children that I raised as a single father. I can only speak on my situation so, I was married at 29 with a girl who was 24. Everything was great and things were also great in the marriage, eventually we had 3 kids, bought cars & a house but she changed? All of a sudden she was disinterested in out life and focused on hers. I kept trying to support her along the way but she didn't commit to the marriage and she kept cheating on me and as a Christian I had to divorce her. At the court she told the judge "I can't handle the kids" so I became a single father, she tried to ruin me, and almost did, but as they say "Life Goes On"

[@xavierkoolat6926]

@@timothybush9633 My experience is similar but with a woman born and raised in the USA. The social and cultural atmosphere here in the USA is poison to families and children, as well as to husbands. The USA's female population has been invaded by an unspoken, underground movement to destroy the American Dream as a stepping stone towards establishing a socialist society, thus destroying our constitutional-republic government, as well as the dominance of the USA's position in the global market. My story began in early 1963 when I first met my future ex-wife on a blind date. I'll skip a lot of detail and cut to the problem. My ex-wife's mother was a lifelong, daily drinking alcoholic. Her father had a minor speech impediment that he compensated with egocentric-egotistic, obsessive germaphobe behavior traits. Her mother's brothers and sisters (her uncles and aunts), and her mother's parents (her grandparents) called her "The Little Princess." She was an only child in both her family and extended family until she was nearly eight years old. All these conditions created a narcissistic type of personality. In effect, my ex-wife was "trained" to have a narcissistic personality by her family and extended family. (This conclusion was described by a pair of psychologists, male and female partners in a psychological-therapist organization.) I was not aware of all these conditions and events about my future wife, including her "party girl" activities both here in the USA and in Italy that were never told me about her past. I was extremely naive as well as ignorant of all her misdeeds and previous behavior. You might say that I was deceived about her reputation and condition. (Does the street slang term "hornswoggled" come to mind?) It was not until about five years into the marriage that I began to question some of her attitudes and behaviors that I began to find out bit-by-bit pieces of her past misdeeds. There's a ton of more information that I will not go into due to limited space. She gave birth to a daughter after having a secret rendezvous with a high school acquaintance nine and a half months earlier, naming her daughter the same name as her secret "friend," only with a variation in spelling. I found out about the secret rendezvous when I overheard her private conversation with one of her girlfriends from the same high school. She also gave birth to a son after she had befriended one of her male co-workers she had developed a friendship with even though I objected and asked her to end it. After about ten years, she stated she never loved me and wanted a divorce. I got her to agree to see a marriage counselor, but she would only go if we had separate private sessions. Desperately, I agreed. I never found out any information from the counseling. She later told me she was moving to another state where her parents lived. It was not a subject for discussion. I moved there and stayed with her parents in their home for six months. She stayed in our home until it sold and her daughter finished her school year. When she finally moved to her parents' city, she had "Financial Separation" papers drawn up and moved out of our rented condo. After a long year, I finally consented to a divorce and left. Eventually, within two years, I ceased communication with her. The point of my telling my sad details is that either a wife or a husband can destroy a marriage by their own personal behavior and attitudes. Neither one has to be a foreigner. Find out as much information as you can about anyone you are considering establishing a marriage relationship with to avoid future problems that will break your heart and destroy your future life and career.

My wife and I met in the U.S. We've been together for a couple years, and she's still a true blue filipina. She's adapted to the more fast paced lifestyle, but it hasn't changed her in a negative fashion. I think if you meet the right person, they'll stay true to who they are. You can be influenced but still remain yourself. But many people seem to forget that is an option though. You don't HAVE to be just like everyone else around you. When I lived in Japan I was still an American, first and foremost. You have to decide what kind of person you are, not what everyone else wants you to be.

He said he knew two American-Filipina couples in his little congregation of a dozen or so couples, supposedly devout, one who got divorced after five years and the other after two. He blamed both these cases on the woman becoming westernized, adopting feministic values and changing from the personality traits that first attracted the man to her.

Don't look. If you find a keeper great but looking puts pressure on you to find. Avoid woman on social media. It is designed to capture them into an addiction to plastic attention that few ever escape. They no longer are content with one man's attention and get unrealistic expectations. The ones posting new pictures of themselves often, even daily, are dangerous choices.

[@smallhelmonabigship3524]

​@@zetaone2669 I really appreciate the advice you gave. It is kind of depressing to me that a man shouldn't take a Filipina back to the U.S. without the risk of losing big. I hope you don't mind if I share my thoughts. The idea that women should use birth control is one of the toxic pills of feminism. And I consider that a red flag when searching for a woman. Years ago, when I was in a Hawaiian restaurant in Salt Lake, I struck up a conversation with a Tongan woman who was in her mid sixties. She was about to attend her mother's 100th birthday party. This 100 year old woman had something like fourteen kids. And each of her kids had large families and so on, so that by the time she turned one hundred, she had five hundred descendants. If you can imagine that? Now if you can appreciate the contrast. She had five hundred people and their spouses and friends attend her birthday party. And all of those people adored her as a national treasure. Her daughter said that even the queen of Tonga paid her respects. Now you put that in contrast to the average American feminist who fooled around, yet rejected every marriageable man. If you know some of them when they get old, they are bitter lonely people. They live alone in their apartments with little money and no companions except maybe for a dog or a cat. Let me ask you which woman is better off in the end? If you believe in God, then you would know that your children are the only thing you can take with you into the next life. Everything else you leave behind. Plus this life is so short. The older we get the more we realize how little time we actually have. Why do we throw away our lives working towards the things that we inevitably lose anyway when our time is up? Why shouldn't we look to a higher purpose? And what are the results of using birth control? All across the world, wealthy nations are experiencing a population collapse. And their civilizations are on the brink of collapse along with it. Birth control are against the laws of God, and there are always consequences breaking His laws. And we are seeing those consequences. Those are my thoughts. You can take it or leave it.

Everyone changes in a different environment Miss Pea. Even your guest changes with his environment. I am married to a Filipina and after 20 years still going strong. Of all our friends in Filipina American marriages I only know 3 that ended up badly which is much better than the average here. It’s true in the Philippines a westerner is the hot commodity so be careful and find the right one. My advice too is don’t get in a huge age gap relationship because when you get older and she is still relatively young you can’t keep up with your homework. In some cases maybe it’s better to keep her in the Philippines but depends on the woman. Don’t just look at city girls. There are a lot of great women from the provinces. Good luck.

[@xavierkoolat6926]

@@Postofficejoe Instead of a fridge/freezer with an additional add-on of cold-tap water with ice maker, consider a "standalone" ice maker that just makes ice cubes. That way, the fridge/freezer will not have to be replaced when the ice maker stops working. The cost of repairing an ice maker on a fridge/freezer is about the same cost of simply buying a new ice maker.

[@Tigger1981]

@xavierkoolat6926 That is a great idea sir, thank you very much. My loving Filipina is frugal and does not want to spend more than necessary. I can truly appreciate this about her. We try to enjoy life and make memories, not objects that will have to be repaired or replaced after a couple of years. Honestly, it seems that people I know who bought the more expensive fridge and freezer with the water and ice feature have had to repair or replace within about 3 to 4 years.

I married a Korean lady (yes I know, completely different culture). She came to the U.S. when she was 16. She had a very strict mother. I met her when I was in the Army. We married when we were both 20 years old. Had a child and been together for over 30 years. We divorced for 3 years and got remarried again. Now our child is 20. We are getting divorced again. My wife has NO resemblance to a traditional Korean woman. The lack of respect to men in the U.S. is amazing. I think you are 💯 on this one. Live in the culture you want live in. If you bring them to the US you are just creating another Western woman

[@YoungFreshGlobalTravel-cy1zj]

Another great video. I can tell you that living here in Queens New York about 15minutes from where I am there is a place called 'Little Manila" with a bunch of FIlipinos, many are my friends. They tell me all the time that many Filipinas they will switch up quick as soon as they come here. One Filipina which is my ex we are still friends now and we talk about this. I just shared the video with her(I told her to subscribe and like of course). She had a filipina that was brought here by a 70 year old white man only to divorce him to be with a black American just 3 years later. So bottom line, yes many Filipinas they will switch up real quick as soon as they come here. A little about me, I am 45 and lived in New York City all my life. Dating here has been horrible to the point where I started watching KZbin videos and decided to travel. I quit my full-time job at Citibank for 12 years and decided to get a fully remote job where I could work from the Philippines starting this July. My base will be Cebu City. I took some money out of my savings and bought a condo and I have to say I am so happy I did this. Putting the women to the side, the people in the Philippines as Pea said are just very nice people. No matter what anyone tells me I know this for a fact. That is the #1 reason why I am moving there and the second is of course to hopefully find someone special. I like that you already know that 5K per month is nothing here and you are right. I am paying $3300 for a 1 bedroom apartment here in Queens New York. I won't say how much my salary is but that is only rent it does not include other expenses. The last thing I will say is this, I highly recommend any expats my age, younger or older to find a remote job here in the USA. There are SEVERAL that you can get that will pay you in USD and then move to the Philippines. So far there are two places I like so far. Iloilo Iloilo and Cebu. I can see myself living there for a long time. Do I think forever? I just don't know the answer to that yet but what I do know is I am surrounded by nice people every day and that is the most important to me. If I do get tired of the PH I will just take a short trip to Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, or even a trip back to New York. Finally, yes Filipina Pea IS FINE, but I am too young for her LOL LOL

it's true. My son is married to an American woman half-black and half-Filipina. Our son said he wanted a 'trad wife' and wanted his wife to stay home and raise the kids. Fortunately she was of a like mind so...fine. My wife, feminist by all accounts, bristled at this arrangement who still has a slight prejudice of wishing to see women be 'bossbabes or 'girlboss' types. She's enough of a feminist (old school) to respect her daughter-in-law's preference and choices, plus we know that our daughter-in-law despite this movement to being trad, has her own will and strength.

The U.S culture is failing. Still, I'm not sure I could live in the philippines. I've been communicating with a Filipina in Gensan but I'm not sure I completely trust her. I'm being very guarded. Later on this year I'm planning on visiting her. But even then my guard will be up(no jokes). I do however agree with your guest, once the filipina starts to interact with western women she will become westernized. Just like if a man from the U.S moved to another country he would eventually take on the customs and attitudes of that country and culture. It's natural. Anyway, I enjoyed the interview.
