Not wanting to be viewed or contacted by a Filipna
Posted : 2 Jan, 2015 08:22 PM

As I run through some posts here, I've read about women my race being discriminated because a number of guys here not wanting to be viewed or contacted by a Filipina, it catches my attention that maybe a lot of men here may have some notable experiences about it. I'm posting this stem for you to cut through some repulsive encounters you got with a Filipina. With your replies, I know, would open some feelings of vulnerability in me and my people but that would really help me understand why some guys here behave as such. Thank you in advance for your replies.

Thanks, sis Osol! Glad to meet a kababayan here :) I was wondering, do we have have a thread in City List - Local Chat? If not, then maybe let's start one? There are so many entries and I couldn't seem to find one for Philippines. Ironic we are quite a number here but don't have a local chat :laugh:

I respect each others preferences on how one wants his profile to be viewed... but it does puzzle me a lot....how annoying is it for many filipnas to view a man's profile.... how would it annoy a man if many filipinas will view his profile..there could be a deeper reason why he finds it so distasteful...

<I'm so new here and I don't know how to post this message for this thread, but sister allow me to express my sentiment for some people out there :angeldevil: >



Honestly speaking as the tittle implies "Not wanting to be viewed or contacted by a Filipna" seems a bit "racist to me". It seems like our race especially the women are so crazy to hook up with any foreign guys. I do respect whatever judgment you have, if that judgement is being rooted with bad experience you had with Filipinas before. But don't generalize us all Filipinas, as we don't generalize other race. Some foreign guys are good and some are not, but I don't condemn the bad ones with their race for being such. I joined this site it's because most of the other chat rooms, social media are so full of immoral things that mostly my age are into. I'm so fed up with physical and worldly things that most people of today post on their social media. I have a first impression of this site as a modest and spiritually driven site, that have a respect for one another no matter what color of our skin, or faith that we believe in....and I just hope that impression would somehow lasts. :glow:

hi femme..



thanx much for ur candid reply.. i appreciate it very much....

yeah my post is a bit racist, negatively put as a result of some profile i run through here in cdff... i posted this stem for me to really understand how these people resorted to a stereotype statement of us....and ... another reason is..if maybe eliminate or lessen (With God's help) the ill feeling they got from us....thanx for citing that they ought not to pigeonhole us as some people of disdain... because this a christian dating site...

that's really true..but one u not disregard is... not all who say a christian is a christian indeed....this is a real christian dating site..but a lot who come in here are not who they say they are. have a great time here in cdff..warm welcome to u..

Hello Osol. I've seen several posts about this subject and I have been unsure whether or how to should address this situation. However, I believe I may have a little insight and wonder if I may weigh in on this subject in a very general way. I can easily say for my part that it's a matter of distance. I don't like trying to carry out a relationship over great distance, and have even told a few people that regrettably, I have had enough trouble trying to build a relationship across my own state, let alone in a different country.



Now, there is also an elephant in the room here that may need to be addressed. In our current age where different cultures bump into each other much more often, we have become extremely sensitive to issues of racial tolerance and acceptance. As such, we don't seem to want to address our cultural differences, yet they are there and ignoring and denying them may be just as dangerous as racism. We would rather pretend they aren't there and get angry when someone brings them up. The simple fact is, there are stereotypes, or to put it more gently: trends, out there about most all races and nationalities, and they may often be earned, either because those differences are real or we hear stories about individual encounters that stick out in our minds. From what I hear, we're not called the "Ugly Americans" for nothing. We all have differences. We just have to live with that. What is important to an American may not be the same as what's important to an Australian, or a Russian, a Japanese. Accept these differences as differences and not just a failed attempt to be like you and decide for yourselves whether someone from a foreign country is compatible with you. When did we get so easily offended by not being someone else's "type" anyway?



If I may look into why it's been so pointed as to single out Philippine women for this post, I've become a little curious about this issue myself, so I did a little reconnaissance and some rudimentary statistics. Hopefully this won't come out too nerdy. I don't have the time to crunch all of the numbers, but I have made some general observations that I hope might help us answer some questions: This site is a somewhat small site, first of all, and that's helpful because it does make it easier to study. It seems to be mostly based in the U.S. (hence there is a bent in favor of Americans, having their own forums and the like). A large proportion of the population of recently active female accounts (by this I mean the account has been active in the last 24 hours) are in the US. Looking at general results (no advanced searches) of female profiles within my preferred age range, between age 22 and 30, I had to go to the 47th page of results before I found a user that hadn't been on in the last 24 hours (with 10 results per page, that's around 470 profiles). However, if you look in Canada, the count of recently active users stops on the 4th page of results. The UK had 10 pages of active profiles, France, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, and China had less than 1 page of recently active profiles within the age range of 22 and 30. India's list of consistently active profiles stopped on the 3rd page. Kenya had 9 pages of active profiles. There are others I could do, but in the interest of space, when I put in the Philippines, I had to go to the 40th page before I saw a profile that had not been active in the last 24 hours. For a country that is quite a bit smaller than my own geographically (I don't know how population size and density play a role, but it would be interesting to find out), there is an impressive population of single ladies in my age range looking for a match, and that number approaches the number in the US. So the reason I've done this is to say that maybe, just maybe, the reason Philippine women might be spoken against in someone's profile is simply because demographically, Philippinas and Americans seem, at least from these initial results, to make up a larger proportion of the population of active users on this website than users from most other countries around the world. I wonder, though, how age plays a role and if the time changes things since we're in different time zones?
