how would you describe Filipinos?

The Filipino are amazing people, they are pure in heart, I had the privilege to have a gentleman from Manila as a friend years gone by-his human nature was comparable to none-he was selfless, kind and mixed freely with people of all walks of life-he had a fiancee who came to visit him in Kampala, my city and to this day, I have it in my mind that Filipinos have the most beautiful women in the world! As for this derisive view that Filipinos are maids-that can be pushed aside and ignored-it is a foolish generalization-it is like sayng all Africans are foolish or poor, and you skbh12 know, that is not entirely true, so in the same light, there may be some people because of the objective economic situation in Philipines,are doing domestic work for a living I agree, but it is completely B... Sh.t to say all Filipinos are maids-we have many intellectual out in the philipines, computer experts, lawyers, Doctors and Engineers, can they all be considered Maids? It just cant be, so dont let anybody distruct you from being a Partriotic Filipino.

Matibay! thats what I can say about the filipino people.. We always face the day with hope and we have the family values. We love our family with respect and we really spend more time with a fmaily gathering.. we honour our parents and give them the respect they need..

Hi, I am from India, as long I had been in mylot I had seen more of Filipinos, from the dicussions and responds I could only judge that Filipinos are very nice to heart and they well in present their feelings I could all good things on them

Based on my experiences while i'm studying in the phil, i found that filipinos love to sing and dance, people usually go to karaoke if they hang out with friends and family. They do enjoy to go to karaoke even spend much money and sing without feeling shy even some have bad voices. They really pork lovers, salty and sour dishes, and barbeque. Wherever i go in Davao city, there are always so many carenderia, restaurants, with almost the same menu... with pork!!! I do observe that Filipino loves to eat something with "suka" and toyo. We, indonesian, prefer to eat hot and spicy food and i prefer sweet sauce than toyo-salty sauce. Its so not always to find restaurant with chili sauce or even chili red. Hmmmm... some filipinos are friendly, but some are not. Some even avoid to talk with foreigners because shy and dont want to talk english even they can. Some are really nice and helpful, even some like to borrow money. I dont think that filipinos like maids, maybe its because philippines has higher rate exporting workers to abroad. All i know that philippines has "brain drained" prob, since many professionals leave their country to get higher salary and better job.

I think Filipinos are very lovely. I (actually "we", since she came to visit our organization) met a Filipino many years ago. We had a great time with her, and only one hour after she came, all of us give her a nice nickname: mother.

haha! I never thought that I would bump into a fellow pinay here in myLot! :) im just a new here, just getting used to the "earning while posting" thing. I added you up, hope you would accept it. teehee!! tnx :)

They are compassionate and recognized to have competitive talents. We ought to seek betterness and alternatives just to stay sound. Though often misunderstood, we can't blame those people from other races described us like what you said, coz it's a reality that emerged because of some unpure filipinos who became opportunists to take over and benefited from greed.
