Why do foreign men go to the Philippines to look for a wife?

[Moy]

wrong reasons why foreign men look for a Filipina wife:
- Pinays are submissive, egoistical men dont like being challenged by women....they always believe they're right hence wife should not challenge him to be wrong
- being poor, men think they can buy Pinays and do their bidding....these women become indebted to these men and being Pinay we have that 'utang na loob', paying it for a lifetime
- being feminine and exotic looking, these men think Pinays are trophy or a doll to parade and brag to their ignorant friends
I can make the list longer but that is being bias.


the Right reasons why foreign men look for a Filipina or a good woman (nationality is irrelevant):
- love for family. A woman who loves her family is a sign that she'll be a good mother, will give the same love to her own family.
- recognize the authority of a man. A woman in love knows when and how to submit to her husband, not because she is weak but because of love and respect for her husband as the head of the family.
- faith and inner strength. A man needs his woman to be on his side during hard times. A good wife gives strength to her husband by staying strong and positive during the storm.
- for simply being beautiful. A beauty that is not superficial, being true to her self.
- smile...a genuine smile makes a woman attractive.

foreigner or not, good men and women are everywhere

He should think himself lucky, I usually pretend I'm a Norwegian Oil worker when I'm in Manila, that way I can tell them in a really bad Norwegian accent that I don't speak much English and I'm only paying 200 pesos or I'll get out of the cab.

Nah, I've been there enough to have wised up to most of the scams now. It always helps to tell the driver exactly how many times I've been to the Phil's and how much I always pay for a taxi, otherwise they will always try it on. On the meter from Ayala to NAIA it should be no more than 120pesos, I don't mind paying 200, but I'm not paying 400 or 500 which is what some of them quote when they see a white face.

I've been a good few times and seen a good variety of the Philippines - good and bad parts in Metro Manila the provinces and the island regions

I don't think I'll ever meet anyone as loopy as my ex Filipina girlfriend, I've still got teethmark sized holes in my arm

base on my perssonal exprienceMaguindanao province.,Basilan,Jolo and some part of Cateel Davao Oriental

[Tawi2]

Been to Maguindanao often,basilan a few times,jolo often Your easily scared Dont ever go to Kabul,if basilan scares you Kabul will terrify you

[Moy]

me scared you are on my land ..you are the foreigner you should be scared lolz..have you gone to sto tomas carmen dvo del norte....your name tawi will convert to kata-kot as it very dangerous for you there

[Englishman2010]

There can't be anyone left in Jolo, everyone I met in Kota Kinabalo was from Jolo and that area (probably illegally), can't say any of them were that scary though

[Tawi2]

Kata kot means your scary The guys you met are illegals english,to be honest if some poor wayward tourist soul did indeed wander around Jolo or basilan the chances of something happening to them are quite high indeed.

Just kidding Tawi I've read enough about the Phil's and asked enough questions to know where to go and where to avoid when I'm over there. I don't think my Travel or Life insurance would cover me in SW Mindanao anyway? Probably OK in Davao and CDO, I guess it depends what is on the FCO website said at the time and what the insurance company would try to worm out of in the event of an internet beheading claim

[Tawi2]

I only ever once met a really scary guy in Pinas an old man,ex sparrow-unit alex boncayao member,he told me some interesting stories,he was a cold guy.

[Moy]

hmm interesting tawi but would you like to meet my neighbor commander Leonardo “Ka Parago” Pitao for a cup of tea

[Tawi2]

I was in Davao last year when his daughter was raped and murdered,sad story.
