don't get me wrong LadyJ, I totally respect the phils and the people there, but it's a parody of how some people think the "mail order bride phenomenon"!
maybe it wouldn't be so funny bigtombowski if you ever marry your filipina, and seeing how upset and insulted she becomes of all the media stereotyping of filipino's and thai's, that they are all bar girls, marry old western guys who are old enougth to be their grand dad. when i tell people where my wife is from, i get all the old jokes , is she a ladyboy, how much did i pay her for, etc. i'm embarrassed for my wife, and unlike some people i didnt pick her from a dating website, i knew her sister, she could have been from any country in the world. in just happened she was from the philippines. I've had some of this crap from my own family, and from people i know, the fact is my wife is more intelligent than everyone of them, has earned 2 degrees and finds it all insulting to her and her country..
