Why do Pinay likes foreign men?

not only pinay likes to marry a foreingner.its a world wide that womens wants to marry a foreigner.the malaysian,japanise,african and chinise overtakes pinays to marry a foreighner. visit all datings sites and you will know it maybe you get heart attack but some opinion here a are not true.coz i married to aforeigner almost 9 yrs and never dreamed of but it happens its like destiny for me.he was trying hard to win my heart coz i dont want foreighner but he believes love at a first sight. some who has trying hard to for foreignher they dont have luck and some has luck so i believe the destiny.

Yes that seems to be the trend to some women of today. They would prefer marrying foreigners than the local. Well maybe they just want to have lineage that is foreign origin. It is like producing a mestiza type of children and maybe having a new breed of themselves. It may also be out of financial needs that she is doing that. Well he could not find it here to find local men who can financially support her so she would turn on looking outside since the demand for mail order brides are so in demand especially in the net.

The truth is Pinays really don't want strange men but a life of luxury.

I think Pinay likes foreign men for greener pasture. They want to go to other country and have a better life.They are tired of being poor and will grab any opportunity that comes to them.

it saddens me because this is why other people look down at us Filipinos. Some pinays think that foreign men are rich and that this is their ticket to a comfortable life. even if their english is bad, they find a way to communicate with foreigners who in turn grabs the opportunity, marries the pinay and treats her like a slave. but this is not always true because i know people who do like foreign men and they are affluent. i have a friend who married a foreigner and they are very happy.

i got a foreign boyfriend. the reason why i want to have foreign bf is not because i want to go to america, life is so hard in there. well i want to go to u.s. not because i want to earn a lot fo money. the reason is that, when they marry, they live separately with their parents and that is very different from the filipinos, i dont like to live with my inlaws, especially if the mother inlaw is very dominating, and sometimes the filipino husband's relative will live with you in the house and since you are doing the laundry, you have to wash their clothes too and i hate that. well filipino guys are the best lovers but most filipino guys do not know how to wash their clothes, dont know some housechores and that is a turn off for me. so i prefer foreign men coz they are independent.

Yes, my cousin who is half-Filipino and half-American married a Filipino woman just a few months ago, and my family was very displeased with it. We were not displeased because she is Filipino, we were displeased because it was an arranged marriage. Here in America, most of us believe in marriage for love, not for money or for business. I hear that a lot of Filipino women are marrying American men these days, and I have to ask, why? Some of these men you are marrying are not worth it. Some of them are not marriage material. I should know, I have dated many men that were not made to be married. You should marry a man for love, not because he is a free ride to America. Oh, that is another thing. What is the appeal about America? It stinks living in this country. We do not have free health care, and our economy is terrible. Canada has it better than we do.

Curious and seeking to learn: What the heck is Pinay??

Hello iceblizzard, Number one reason is economics, my friend. They have more chance having a better life when they marry a foreigner, specially in the USA. In the US, they have a better chance of finding good paying job. Most Pinay want to help their family and if they marry a foreigner, their dream of helping their family is better. The culture is not a problem for Pinay because they are adaptable and caring. So you foreigner and Pinay won't have a problem getting along. I think anohter reason is having children with blue or green eyes. Pinay want to have beautiful children and you can see that most Pinay with foreigner husbands have usually beuatiful siblings. So you can't blame them. Given the chance, they will choose a foreigner over you or me. Regards.

They're simply sick of average Filipino guy. lol. But seriously, one prevalent reason could be wanting to go to abroad and leave this country. Some people might not like the answer, but that's how i see it.

I am a filipina and I intend not to marry a foreigner, so I guess not all filipina likes foreigners. Somehow Filipino do almost anything in order to improve their lives. Managers here in the Philippines sacrificed their position and work as a cleaner in other countries. High school students opted to take nursing as a course in college. And most single and even attached ladies go to chat rooms in order to find not just a lover but a provider as well. I respect those ladies, especially those very young ones who end up marrying an older foreigner. But I must say that using someone for personal motivations is not really good, the law of karma tells.

The only reasons that I can think of why many of the Pinay wants to marry or have a boyfriend who is a foreigner it is because of money (simply $ Dollar)..They know that foreigners have dollars and because our country has a really big problem in economy they just wish to have a boyfriend or a husband who is a foreigner since they know that it can help them to have a good life and also help their families.. But of course not all Pinay only some..

the only reason why pinay wants to have a foreign boyfriend/fiance/husband is because of their dream to go to other country. i mean if a pinay will get married with a foreigner, it's not hard for her to get a visa coz she's a legal wife of a foreigner. i mean there's nothing more to ask unlike if you're applying to other country on your own - it's like your struggling just to get a visa! so in order to get to other countries that easy, get a foreign lover coz he will be your ticket to your target country. so sad but this is true! the example is my friend who's 26 years old & her husband is a 50 year old british man, now she lives in england because of her husband...

I was in Greenhills last Sunday and I noticed a Pinay with two Japanese men. From where I was standing, it looked like the Japanese man just bought her a nice new cellphone. This was not the first time I saw something like this. When I walk around in Greenbelt, most Pinays with foreign guys usually have bags of things that they have just bought. From my observations, it's the money that attracts them to the foreigners.

there are a lot of reasons why most pinay's fall's to foreigners. some due to a certain situation (needs), others wanted to be different or just simply falling in true love. frankly speaking i'm married to a foreigner, not to be defensive or whatsoever but i married him because of love and nothing else. i can't say that i got frustrated/became broken hearted with a pinoy bf, but it just happened. In fact if given the chance i would like to have a pinoy husband coz i know how caring and responsible the pinoys are but just like what i've said i fall for a foreigner. now we have a kid and di sya pango ha ha ha joke!!!

Like what most other responders have mentioned the reason why Pinays like foreign men would depend on preference and necessity. Women(not just Pinays) nowadays are being more and more practical that they dont look for 'true love' right off the bat. Women look for men who would be able to give them stability and security in their future. It doesnt mean that there arent any Filipino men who can offer that but you have to admit that life in other countries are easier compared to ours. Personally, I dont mind Filipino men, its just that Ive grown up watching and actually prefer foreign films/shows that my taste has adjusted to that. So if you ask me Im more into foreign guys. But realistically, looks fade over time and you just get used to how a person looks. What matters to me is the personality and the quality of the conversation. Since at the end of the day, its what you'll only get.

I also noticed such scene anywhere in the country- A young Pinay, even not so beautiful, with an old dying foreigner in which the Pinay tried hard to speak in english. I wonder if it was out of love or out for something else. Some Pinay in the Philippines dreams for an easy wealth or a good and easy life which resulted to them to suft the web to find a foreigner which can provides their material needs. Pinay assumed that a foreigner has much money to take her aborad and supported her material needs even without affection, anyway love today is last priority in seeking a future partner for some people. Marrying a foreigner to some Pinay is short cut to success in life. However, some marriages with foreigner lasted only for few months because many of the Pinay expectations were not achieved for not all foreigners are rich and abundant in life. In the Philippines, everybody is dreaming for good life out of poverty. It is not bad to dream for it but if the tool for achieving such dream is to marry an unfamiliar person out of expectation to be instantly rich, then maybe it is against the Fi;ipino values which our forebears given to us as legacy. Besides, having a life partner without true love is dangerous, as if someone is an stranger in paradise. In the past, I have sad experienced on this same issue. I met somewhere on the web a Pinay and we become friend for so long but suddenly when I courted her, she immediately turned down me upon knowing that I am from the Philippines and not a foreigner, not knowing that I maybe richer than the foreigner she was looking for and can provide her needs more than the foreigner could do, but of course she can not go to abroad because I am not a foreigner. Nowadays, our Filipina is very hard to understand. Our values seem already outdated and no longer in our selves. It is really our Pinay values and character are declining? They sought easy and abundant life capitalizing the so called marriage to an stranger from other countries.

Well every person have their own respective reason on why people especially for a Filipina who have to choose to be with the foreigner and absolutely age is not the matter on this but for sure it is for the respect in what I see on them and the freewill of life in which they would be so sure that they can eat 3 times in a day but do you know that my wife is also a Filipina and I am11 years older than her but I never see my wife doing such things when i first meet her in Kuwait when she is working in the hotel(JW Marriott Hotel) and she not even give me attention when I will go to the Hotel for that is the first reason that I fall in love with her(wife) for I am sure that she will not give any attention to someone so easy even when they will have a lot of money because I even test her without her knowledge she is the type of woman that you can trust for that i never even think twice to marry her and be my wife and for those Filipina woman that you have mentioned I felt so sad that the people does not give them the right to respect on what they need friend, i am a Foreigner but I do respect a Filipina so much for they deserved it for this is the first reason I've seen with my wife "It is the respect of herself" and that i make it sure to give it to my wife in return so for them what ever reason they have to choose to be with Foreigner then for sure they did not see it to a Filipino Guy as well......

Well iceblizzard, you have a very interesting question. I read the answers of those who responded and yes they do have a point and I would say it applies to a lot of women. I am married to a Western man myself and we have a big age difference. While I do not deny that marrying a foreign national certainly has its financial benefits because of the huge differences in the currency exchange and the abundance of employment opportunities in foreign countries if you have the qualifications and you are able to take advantage of them, it is not the only reason why we marry foreign men. Pinays marry foreign men for various reasons. Yes there are a lot of them who are desperate to escape their dire financial situation which, I think is a big mistake because they end up unhappy and trapped in a foreign land. They have nowhere else to go and no financial capacity to support themselves so they put up with a miserable relationship. There are many who marry in order to improve their gene pool, those who dream of a fair skinned and blue eyed baby. Then there are those who marry for love. I left a very promising career as a university professor, I left a graduate scholarship opportunity, my family and friends to be with him. I married my husband because I love him. Career-wise moving to his country has been the biggest mistake I've ever made. I've encountered so many frustrating hurdles and there are many times when I just want to give up because I had to start all over again. Yes there's been a lot of trade offs but he makes me happy and to me, nothing is more important than that.

Maybe because they want to go and live outside the country. For some having someone from the other country is another way of solving their financial issue and for some they do this for their family. God bless
