Filipina Lady - Who is She

A Filipina Lady strives to fulfill her dreams, she is kindhearted, shows respect to both young and old, she laughs, she cries, she triumphs, she fails, but she will always stand up, and say I'm a Filipina. I'm proud of where I came from, I'm proud of my country, I'm proud of being a Pinay, I'm proud to be a Filipino.

The Philippines has many affinities with the Western world, derived mainly from the cultures of Spain, Latin America, and the United States. After the Japanese were defeated in 1945, the Philippines was granted independence from the United States on July 4, 1946. The Philippines constitutes an archipelago of 7,107 islands with a total land area of approximately 300,000 square kilometers (116,000 sq mi) and is the world's 12th most populous country, with a population of over 85 million as of 2005. The history of the Philippines can be divided into four distinct phases: the pre-Spanish period (before 1521); the Spanish period (1521-1898); the American period (1898-1946); and the post-independence period (1946-present). Many say that the American period had the most influence on today's Filipino. In 1987, the Philippine Constitution was changed to make Filipino and English both the official languages.

Filipina Lady Attraction

Many ask why so many western men are attracted to Filipina Ladies, especially Americans. It is the simplicity of their values with a mixture of American influence that seems to attract most men. In the Asian world, the Philippines is the largest English speaking country. This makes communication easier for men who find the Filipina beauty alluring and friendly. If a man is searching for a non-western lady with Asian values, the language barrier is not a factor when getting to know these ladies. The Philippines is also one of the largest Christian countries in Asia and it is the world's fifth largest Catholic Nation. Because of Western influence, finding common ground with a Filipina Lady can easily be established. However, the Western world is not without its rudeness. A number of Filipina Ladies find derogatory names like "foreign bride" or "mail order bride" being disrespectful to their culture and gender. As one well informed Filipina Lady said: “when it comes to respect and morality the Philippines is not a 3rd world country – the U.S. government. with their imposing will of what they deem is good for the world gets the title of 3rd world ignorance for disrespecting people and their culture."

Filipina Lady Reputation
The Western world of morality as they see fit has insulted many Filipina women. There is an onslaught of Western feminism tying to impose their point of view without knowing her identity, her values, her upbringing, her experiences, and concerns. As usual
, it is the government imposing their will backed by political hags that are out of touch of what it takes to survive as an average citizen. Instead of asking the folks who actually have to live life, political ambitions continue to impose what they think is right for the average citizen to further their own political endeavors and wealth. This alienation perpetrates most Filipina Ladies’ reputation in a bad light instead of protecting it. As one Filipina Lady said: “if the government is involved on my behalf, they need to live my life before they impose their will – I”m not forced to do anything I don’t want to do when given free will – only the government forces me to do what I find insulting and unnecessary." Most Filipina Ladies who join a dating site do so for the right reasons (see Filipina Lady) They may be tagged by politicians and special interest groups as helpless victims, but many find that the ignorance lies within the government policy to take away their individual rights by using the helpless victim tag as a means to promote their own selfish agenda for individual gain. To them the political agenda is obvious, while the vast majority wants and needs are ignored in favor of a few who prostitute their unfortunate story as being the truth of many. Nothing could be so wrong as the government’s unwillingness to talk to those who know the truth and use fabrication to further their agenda and individual wealth. The government could learn a lot about morality from a simple Filipina Lady who knows what is best for her and how to live life.

Filipina Lady – She is

Who is she? An individual with much to offer. Desired for her beauty that is reflected in her character as a person, not as a governmental pawn for political agendas. If you ask her what her agenda may be and you don’t agree, give her respect, give her free will and give her the ability to choose for herself as long as she is not harming others. She may be many things to many people, but let her decide who she wants to be. She is Filipino, a lady from the Philippines that is as proud as any woman from any country whom endearingly is known to most of us as a Filipina Lady.

Pinay Students Saddened by Michael Jackson's Death

Just as moonwalking Pinoys (male Filipinos) are saddened by the sudden death of their idol, Michael Jackson, so are the many young Filipina students who love his music and admire his person.

What makes the pop icon's death dishearten a big number of Pinays? Is it the vain physical transformations that they can identify with? Well, almost all Filipinas want fairer complexion. Is it the sweetness of his female pitched voice or the consummate artistry in his music? Is it his signature dancing moves that mixes sexual erotics with moonwalk thrills? Or is it the person himself who has touched us all from his childhood, love affairs, legal battles, advocacies and sexual dilemnas?

His music never ceases to touch the hearts of Pinoys and Pinays, students and workers, young and old. Michael's mixture of mystery, isolation, indulgence, overwhelming global fame, and personal loneliness was intimately known to all of us. As easy as it was for Pinays anf Pinoys to love him, his death seemed almost fated.

The Naked Truth on Pinays

Pinay Students (Filipino female students) in Philippine colleges and universities hold that brazen image of a Filipina (Filipino woman) struggling to find her own place in the sun. Filipina students, who once consider their roles as mere inspirations and beauty symbols, gradually conduct themselves in bolder and more challenging roles not just as the nifty survivors from men’s sexual advances but as respectable partners in all areas of human development.

While the current progressive views on the adorable (not affordable) Pinays is headstrong on the limelight of Filipino awareness, the machismo consciousness, that their male counterparts are clinging on to, cannot be sidelined easily despite social and legal attempts to quash it in oblivion.

The naked truth however remains as male Pinay fantasies continue to bear the image of the naked Pinay in all her splendor and soft weakness. Why is it so hard for our society to pull together innate beauty and acquired strength of persona? How could we overcome the popularity of sexually demeaning scandals named after colleges and universities to which these Filipina students are believed to have enrolled in?

Are we going to just blame it on the rain and put our hands in our pockets, hoping to find enough money to buy our way into the arms and soft embrace of the adorable Pinay?

Filipina Scandals - Who Gains?

The Philippine President is a Filipina. PGMA as she is hastily referred to has caused quite an uproar as her cohorts in Congress tried to stage one futile attempt to extend her term through the Con-Ass. Using their massive numbers, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s allies in the House of Representatives crushed all objections and passed a resolution setting up a constituent assembly (Con-ass) amid opposition warnings it would allow Ms Arroyo to stay in power beyond 2010.

This congressional scandal upstaged the Katrina-Hayden Scandal that took our breaths for a while as young Pinoys and Pinays searched through cyberspace, run to sidewalk vendors, activated their CPs bluetooths just to view such glorious sexual demeanor. Was it a male perverted insult to sexually submissive or persuasive Filipinas? The courts shall decide....
