I think in reality, men (like myself) who date and/or marry a Filipina are in a minority. But the western ideal of Beauty is more in line with what can be seen amongst a lot of Asian/Pacific Islander women. In fact, if you look at the people the west is now considering as the most Beautiful women in the world you will see a pattern emerging. As examples, I can think of Jessica Alba (), Beyonce, Eva Mendez and Eva Longoria. Now, granted these are not Filipinas, but they share many traits a Filipina has. Particularly skin pigmentation! And think of all of those white women who spend so many hours under a sunbed to try and achieve what Filipinas have naturally.

Also, Filipinas are family orientated. They want to have a family! And in this modern day there are many western women choosing not to have children but to focus on a career. Perhaps, the Filipina meets the desires a lot of men have for the woman they wish to spend the rest of their lives with?
