With modern Pinays you will find many are as you say not mary popins but demure in front of the family and friends..

For example of the Wifes friends who have facebook pages of Bible and God references many also have healthy relationships with long term boyfriends on the go it appears away from those in their day to day lives.

Phill households typically have generations even different families in them so taking home bf is not an option so healthy weekends away with groups of friends are organised and oh look bf is in the group
