Too right !

Stick to rice and fish though, cos Filipinas also tend to put lots of weight on when eating western junk food.

I've certainly noticed a bit of crisis of confidence with some 'darker' Filipinas. I think it is partly cultural too.

You're right, that is cultural. All our colonisers have been white (Spaniards, Americans and Brits) so the impression is usually that if you have fair skin or have features that make you look Caucasian, you either descended from a hacienda owner/galleon owner/some other well-off coloniser ancestor, therefore you come from a higher social class. If you ask any fair-skinned Filipina how many times she's been told that she's "kutis mayaman", which means her skin makes her look "moneyed", chances are she hears that quite often.

I love those dark-skinned Filipinas.

The ex always used to amuse me...dodging out of the sun all the time so she didn't get tanned and look like a 'provincial'...which she was.

LOL! That's nothing! The only time I've ever seen my aunt Becky get any kind of physical exercise was sprinting from shadow to shadow screaming "I don't want freckles! OMG, keep the sun away from me!" She and my aunt Lili both looked like ninjas when we went white water rafting in CDO. The only things that weren't covered in thick clothing and a thick layer of sunscreen were their eyes. That wasn't very safe... I don't know about you, but I'd rather get freckles/a tan than drown in a wet balaclava.

That makes me think though. How come we all laugh at the "natives"? Even I'm guilty of that. Don't get me wrong, I love my brown skin and button nose (that Filipinos consider "too flat"). But now I'm wondering when in my lifetime was I taught that being Filipino and descending purely from the Malay race makes a person "cheap"?

I think filipinas are generally all smokin hot looking, the way they smile at you is just amazing..

You just have to get past all the cultural self-deprecation.

Wow, I didn't realise there were pay sites for meeting Filipinas. Do a lot of people pay for those things? Are they even worth it?
