filipinos are obsessed of being white that's why skin whitening product in the Phils is the biggest industry. that's why majority of filipinos loves to have a pale white babies, its like if someone gave birth the first thing they want to know if the baby is "maputi or maitim" (black/brown o white) or "matangos o pango" (flat or pointed nose) rather than asking if they baby is healthy
if you have a white baby in Phils (probably from a white foreign partner) for sure you are very popular in the village or barrio where you live or everywhere you go you have the cutest baby and everyone telling you that she will be a superstar in the future or telling you to audition on tv etc
if your colour are white your IN if your brown/black unnoticeable
