I don't think there is anything wrong with being attracted to a certain look. I just think that people are in danger sometimes of generalising. I work with many Indian guys, people always say that Indians are polite, and humble.
Well - that is true in a majority of cases - but they are no more polite and humble than many Brits I work with. And, some of these Indian guys have been right nasty cases.
As much as it is bad to call Filipinas gold-diggers (and there are, undoubtedly, a few) it is equally bad to generalise that they "make great wives" - as I have read in other sites. God, how condescending. Volkswagen make good cars. People with the right qualities make great wives/husbands/mothers/fathers.
If people start out with an opinion of Filipinas as a race, they are likely to either end up disappointed, or end up realising that the opinions forged before the relationship even started are completely wrong in the first instance.
Example, my last girlfriend was great. She was blonde, from Somerset, and was a great cook. But we parted. Do I go back to Somerset to meet a great blonde cook?
The other thing that I didn't quite get here was - people advise you not to meet Filipinas already resident in the UK. Why is that?
