I was just wondering: do Filipinas tend to be pretty affection in public?  I've heard somewhere (and I can't remember where for the life of me :) that Filipinas are VERY affectionate, and I was just wondering if they're really affectionate in public?

Thanks,

Here in the states, Vicky prefers to walk arm in arm with me, or with my arm across her shoulders occasionally. When we sit side by side, my arm is around her. She will openly kiss me in public. When I returned from overseas I was hit with about a hundred pounds of Filipina in the airport at 60 mph and wrapped up. But that only lasted a few seconds and she wiped her lipstick off me afterwards. Nice to be missed.

In the RP, she prefers to walk arm in arm if it isn't too hot, otherwise it is hand in hand. She will come up to me when we stop and put her arm around my waist and vice versa. She is quite happy to let people know we are married, and she was quite happy to show we were an item before we were married. For one thing, it was a warning to other Filipinas that I was claimed. Her hugs around my waist from the side and arm in arm/holding hands is a visual signal; "WARNING: Private Property - No Trespassing - Violaters Will Be Severely Dealt With" to strange, cruising females. That and flashing her ring set like a police strobe. Filipinas like to claim their man to keep off the competition.

At first, though, you will probably be chaperoned by about a half dozen giggling girlfriends/sisters/aunts/neices. Unless, that is, you are dating an older woman, possibly who has had a child or marriage but been abandoned. Then it may or may not be the case.

Where Filipinas shine in displays of affection are at home, especially after the kids are in bed and/or the lights are out. But even during daytime, at home, she will be very affectionate to you. If she really loves you, that is. You will be the Lord and Master of the household (or at least you will think you are) and she will run the household like the Grand Vizir, knowing when to ask your advice to make you feel lordly and when to go ahead and not bother you with details (most of the time). They manage their men well, for being so "submissive". But you will have absolutely no doubts whether or not your Filipina loves you after the lights are out, after her initial maidenly discomfort is over, that is. As Vicky's mom says, "Love him at night and feed him first thing in the morning, and do not talk too much until he is well into his breakfast." A wise lady. I hypothesize that if more women did that, there would be fewer divorces and much happier husbands AND wives. Vicky also never starts yammering at me when I first get in of an evening. She lets me wash up, brings me a cup of joe or a beer, depending, and lets me get it about done before she brings up the household/social business. She is gracious enough to let me unwind and relax for a few minutes and change gears.

But I am liklely to get a kiss on the top of my head as I reach for first coffee in the morning and when I get in of an evening, or she reaches around me and hugs me from behind as I sit to breakfast and I reach back to grab her but she giggles and dances off to get the eggs on or the toast buttered or something. She has an habit of watching me eat which was a little disconcerting at first but I got used to it quickly. It is another way she expresses affection. She is a very light eater at breakfast and I am not. She nibbles her toast or fruit or rice and watches me eat. As soon as my cup hits the saucer empty she is up and at the pot to pour me a refill. I usually manage to snag her sometime towards the end of breakfast, pull her on to my lap and give her a big kiss. If we have company that's as far as it goes.

But alone in the house I have absolutely no doubt this woman loves me. Nor will you if you manage to marry a Filipina who genuinely loves you.

Sorry... not nitpicking, but there was a BIG deal over that here a few years ago.  Just stickin' up for my bruthas in Hockeyland :)

Jawohl, die prostituierte. Oops sorry! :o)) The subject line translates to "Trust the Germans!"

I agree with you! Let's also not forget that it is no fun sitting around speaking German whle trying to stop a Filipina from becoming a GRO or entertainer in Japan. Which makes me wonder how cc is doing these days.

I don't know Jay, what ever happened to "Bar Hog"?

Ray

If you keep running into Germans, your going to the wrong places.

Jay

It has been my experience that most single German men roaming the bars in the Philippines are obnoxious, and sometimes dangerous. Much more so than the regular funloving, drunken whoremongers of other nationalities, in the bars. Hence, they tend to congragate in "German Bar's". Humabdos is not a drunk or a whoremonger, so I suspect he is running into these kind of Bars. Especially if he is off of Luzon. The Aussie's and Americans operate Angeles, yet there are a few German Bars every where. More Europeans operate buissinesses in other parts of the Philippines, especially around Visayas,

The kitchen wasn’t officially open for business yet, but he wanted to try out some of his recipes on us, so he fixed up a whole bunch of wiener schnitzel, home-made sauerkraut, German potato salad, etc., again at no charge. Great food!

Hey, if all the German-owned bars in the Phils are like that, who’s complaining? :-)

Ray

Just fror the record,I wasn't really thinking of you about fart humor. I was speaking to those that had gone "over the top" recently. You didn't qualify. Not this week anyway. :) I was just pizzing off the top of my soapbox anyway, just ignore it.

Anyway, I've had quite a few good times in "German Bar's" myself. I just think that Hum is running into these types of bar's in his travel's around. He's not going to Angeles, obviously. It's not his thing. So he is getting the impression that they are all German bar's! LOL! Lot's of German's around the diving area's. We're going to the Philippines next March. I think I'm going to spend my time learning to dive and do a little flying. I must stay sober! :) I shoulden't have a problem with the German bars, just the Aussie bars. I love to party with Aussie's! LOL! There shoulden't be to many Aussie bar's around the provinces, though.

Jay

I could understand the Germans better than I could the Aussies speaking Strine. :o)))

Ahhh   Phoebe Cates   one  of  the  prettier  unsung  actresses  out  there.  Some  of  her  movies  have  have  been pretty good ---  Fast Times  at  Ridgemont High  and Princess Cariboo  While  others  Drop Dead Fred  and Gremlins  were  kind  of  a waste of  Celluloid.  I always  had  a  thing  for  her  though,  and  I  was  watching  Drop  Dead  Fred  again  this  week  just  to  see  how  attractive  she  is.   Kevin Kline is a lucky man !  

As  for  your  Accent  you're  a  Mich-i-gander  right?  are You  from  the  U P?  Or  have  you  developed  a  Cubano Accent / twang.  I  suppose  either  one  would  Justify  your  sister  in  laws  confusion  ha ha ha.

I  didn't  know  that  but I suppose it makes sense.  Her father  was/is  a  directer I  thought  I  once  heard.

It's  funny  the  one  girl  at  work  who  is  really  attractive to me above  all  the  rest of  the  caucasian  girls is  Hawaiian  and  I  think  a  1/4  asian.  So  subliminally  maybe  I  can  tell.  Totally  unaware  on  Phoebe  though.

I  am  writting  with  a  Japanese  girl  now  who  lives  in Reseda    34    5  foot 6   pretty  cute too from  her  picture.(ohhhh my gahhhd  she's  a  valley  girl, Tubular ya know  ha ha ha).  But  apparently  she  is  a  smart  cookie at  least.  Just  graduating  with  a  Masters  in Business Administration from Cal Northridge.  She  is  just  looking  for a male  friend  to  hang  out  with and  not  a  relationship quite  yet.  She  is  concentrating  on  looking  for  a job right  now.  But  since  I  live 60 miles  away anyway  what more  can I  offer  realistically  with  my  wacky  schedule.   But  she has  e-mailed  me  3  times  since  last thursday  so  that  is  promising  at  least.  I'll  have  to  bake  a  linzer  tart  and get  some  French chocolates  for  her  when  we  finally can meet.  

What  I  think  is  Ironic  is  that  her  name  is Eri  and  mine  is  Eric.  If  we were to  hook  up  romantically, we  could  have  a  lot  of  fun  with  this when  the telemarketers  call  at  dinner  time  ha ha ha
