My Gin Gin and I are reading the initial post plus all the answers, its so funny is it not my friends and kababayans, we have also experienced this, In Hong Kong, we said hello to some of the ladies there at the noodle bar, they did not reply, nor did they offer any greeting, they just stared at my Gin Gin.
I think its because I am big white man, maybe they thought hmmm she just use her..charms ????? to get to farang land !
Then we met 2 nice Filipina on the water front in Kowloon, and they ask Gin Gin where she is from, and she said..Bacolod City, then they were from Ilo Ilo City, same dialect and same area, so they chatted and smiles and all friendly.
Then we met one in Colchester, they said ahhh we work here ! we are Nurses, and my Gin Gin said, yes me too, I work here too, I am in a School, I am a science technician, then they were shocked, because you see girls, you wives of British men, do not have jobs, you cannot get jobs, because you only came here, with foreigner man and use your charms, but you never had to work, in your life, because mana from heaven fall into your plate.
Then there is the snobbish types, is it Suplada, they think they have hit the big time here in London or rest of UK, and they let you know about it, my Gin Gin laughs at them, saying, "They just want to be seen", we saw one like that at the Manila Supermarket, she was making it so obvious she wished to be seen by all in attendance.
I was LOL at my car, because...she is so obvious, then she got a parking ticket for leaving her car on double yellow lines....that was even funnier to see !
The wives at this forum should not worry, they should just laugh at them, and be thankful for your charms...cos according to those ones, you used your charms to get here....I think they mean something else, (which is quite rude I think) but I am a gentleman and cannot write it in this post.
