| Filipinos are descendants of Aetas, Malays, Polynesians, Indians, Spaniards, Chinese and Americans.Philippines got its name when its explorers dedicated it to King Philipp II of Spain. The term Filipino emerged in the late 19th Century when natives decided to have a national identity.Countries like USA, Brazil, Mexico, Philippines, South Africa etc. are composed of many backgrounds that have melted into one identity. Their nationalities do not exist as a race.For example, Germans and Chinese both exist as a race and a nationality but Americans?We Filipinos belong to those mish-mash countries so we are better off than other nations.End of discussion. |

| Bah, I could see where they get the negative stuff about our self pride and identity. There's too much sell outs! Dumb ass mail order brides?? WTF is that??! All that 'colonial mentality' is sickening! Its very naive of Filipinos to think that everything 'foreign' or 'white' is superior and attractive! What a load of crap! Even grumpy fat white men are being chased by Filipina's lol!! Who are you guys kiddin'??! There's alot that even deny their true heritage and identity, they try hard to speak English with an accent obviously exagerrated, they say they're Latino/Mexican or part Spanish! Its pathetic! Some even deny to speak Tagalog! They should even change the name of Philippines to something else...another reminder of past brutal colonization of King Phillip II.... |
