One of our friends is an ex-bar girl, and is now married to an American. He had to pay the bar owner in order to take her out of the bar!

On the old and now well defunct ASAWA website, there were several instances of yanks marrying bar girls or GRO's......
As I remember quite a few of those relationships failed, mainly because of the girls missing the life, and not really wanting to settle down....
I am in no doubt that many of the girls do that job because there is nothing else available for them in terms of being able to help their families.
And it is a very sad situation indeed.
Even sadder is the thought that some of the bars in Cebu are frequented by westerners through pre-arranged tours....
A certain yankee name, that used to organize such tours, comes to mind.....![]()
