Filipinas’ Shyness: A Unique Quality

January 9th, 2009

Filipinas try as much as possible to avoid the feeling of shyness. This feeling is more of a painful emotion that grows when they failed to meet the social demands of the society. It is a kind of anxiety that treats them to thinking that everything they would do should be well thought of first be acted upon.

Somehow it may control or motivate these women to act only when they are allowed to do so by their immediate sorroundings. This is one of the major reasons why mazjority of the Filipinas still remain conventional. What they learned in te past from their grandparents may still be a part of them up to this day. Thus, conservaticy takes its part in the whole process. Winning the respect of other people is ultimately a part of that shyness.

And that is why foreigners end up looking for these women because this is the trait that they do not mostly encounter in their homelands. 1st world countries tend to be more liberal and untraditional. Therefore, by looking outside of the box, they can clearly see how this unique filipina trait could capture the hearts of other nations.

“Hiya” is the value that regulates the Filipinos social behavior. Just as one is very careful not to be subjected to embarrassment or “mapahiya” one must also make it a point not to cause another person’s embarassment. For example, in asking favor, both parties are careful not to offend the other. So if a favor cannot be granted, the person who cannot oblige apologizes for his failure to do so with an explanation that it is not his intention to refuse but that other factors beyond his control keep him from doing so.

Filipinas’ Sex Values

January 4th, 2009

Conservative and timid. These are the two basic traits one can think of when they are being asked what are the main personalities of a Filipina. Living in a culture of insecuriy towards other nation also added up to the different factors that contributed to what Filipinas know now as sex values. This values are then passed on to different generations and still, there would be no wonder how a little change has been effected up to this day.

Filipinas ties thier families as something that is joined by the sacramental spirituality. Coming from a religious country, these Filipinas try to secure their families. thus protecting them from other outer danger. Along with this practice is the different methods inspired by the aged generations. How filipinas should never be too frank in spilling their emotions towards the oppostie sex and how pre-marital sex is definitely unpermitted. Thus, acceptance of the culture brought by the Westerns are then zeroed down.

The logic is simple, man was made in order to grasp his totality and ability to have children, and women in turn equates this in her capacity to bear them. Different rituals have been taught throughout various generations such as baptism and its sanctity. Marriage is also an important factor in the sex culture since it hones the idea of how men and women live up to the ideals of God.

The essence of a woman, they say, is to bear a child. The woman who concieves soon after matrimony is about to become object of attention of her relatives and of course, her husband. Making it hard for those newly-wed Filipinas who can’t bear a child since they will possibly experience the opposite as that of someone who immediately got pregnant.

These different cultures have surprisingly elevated the Filipinas level in the pedestal since western do not get much of this unique qualites from their homeland. Thus, opening the gates of marrying Filipinas rather than their own native women.

Life Opportunities

Nobody can deny how first world countries could encourage filipinas to live and migrate abroad since these countries will definitely give them the hope of having a new life and better working opportunities.

Maturity

The trend of marriage in lieu to age inthe philippines is different from that of other countries. Some foreigner (women) would consider marrying at the age of thirty and above since they knoe that it’s the start of their marriage absolute maturity.

Famed Filipina Moms

December 16th, 2008

It is also a given fact for Filipinas to be the best contributing person in a family. Having a personality and great values such as modesty, humility, respect, sense of responsibiliy and love is the best thing to offer. And having a great skill and talent in whatever field is an additional bonus.

There are various famed artists, athletes, musicians, politicians around the Philippine coasts. And some of those that penetrate these different fields are not only the Narcissus types but also the Maria Claras. It is now widely accepted in the world and in the Philippines tobe exact how filipinas contributed to the refinement and difference mada in their country over the last decades. These famed women are not only best in what talent they have, they have also become loving wives and moms who have momentously encountered and surpassed different trials and changes in their motherhood and marriage life.

An example of this is Pilita Corales. Pilita Corrales was born in Cebu and is a famous Filipina singer and actress, who is widely tagged as Asia’s Queen of Songs. She has produced over 135 albums in her music career in her four decade showbiz leap.

Pilita holds the distinction of being the first female artist to top the Australian pop music charts long before Helen Reddy, Olivia Newton-John and Kylie Minogue held it.  She has already recorded over 160 songs and has been cited as one of the best filipina artist. A national artist who had been internatinally acclaimed for having a sensational voice.

Pilita’s talent and her total focus on her career did not became hindrances for her to be a good mother and housewife. She has two children, Lourdes Jacqueline “Jackielou” Blanco and Ramón Christopher Gutíerrez. Both of her two children are also well known personalities in the Philippine Showbiz Industry.

This is a live testimony of how love and sacrifice can never be achieved without proper experiences in life. And that a true filipina is someone who sets her goals, achieves it without regrets and expectations, and lives up to it as someone who can transform a house into a home.

The Typical Filipina Wife

December 9th, 2008

Sen. Pia Cayetano (Senator, Republic of the Philippines)

Sen. Pia Cayetano (Senator, Republic of the Philippines)

What are you looking for when it comes to choosing a wife? Do you prioritize the physical features of the woman or do you find some time thinking of her attitude and personality. Men, admittedly, would always take the first step, when it comes to looking for woman, and look initially on the physical features of a woma. This includes the face (eyes, nose, lips), the contour o the body, and of course the basic assets men would naturally dig in such as the legs, and the chest. The least thing for men to notice in women is the perfet character a woman beholds. This includes the likings and favorites of the women, the kind of laugh they would share, and the kind of humor they would spill. These standards have far been discussed and debated for over decades and still, no one, not even women, would testify and prove that it’s always the beauty over the brains.

Now this is a part of the discussion. Will a man go for beauty alone? Or he would rather prefer take the notes of someone with a good character. Marrying someone who could not just show her beauty but also present her prowess in maintaining her stature as a woman of dignity and character is not an egg beating task for it is rare to find someone who not only has the former but also has the latter.

This by far is the best quality a Filipina has to offer–beauty, brains, and character.

Filipina beauty is incomparable. Foreigners would always swoon over these women’s brown and sexy color that adds to the beauty Asians have.

When it comes to intelligence, Filipinas are not the last in the global list. Many of their women are already pronounced powerful not just in Asia but also in the world. The current Commander-in-chief Gloria Arroyo is labeled as the world’s 40th most powerful woman in the world this year. Time Magazine also gave tribute to Former President Corazon Aquino, giving her a chair in the pedestal of those most influetials in the world. These are testimonies of how women would nonetheless rule men and nations because of intelligence.

Another trait a Filipina has is her character. The dignity and sense of responsibility they have is also unequal. Gone are the days that you can only tie these women in their homes and let men do the rugged work. They are now equal, in opportunities and responsibility, as to men. They have the chance to work and balance their motherhood.

WHAT FILIPINAS THINK OF “OTHER” MEN

December 3rd, 2008

Filipinas think of “other” men, foreigners to be exact, as hardworking, responsible, and courageous. Of course we should not miss how these men think about love, sacrifice, and respect, but some Filipinas are carefully outlining their stars with these men.

As what logic states, guys must always be assure that they will always be the statue of security for ladies. And ladies in return have to return the favor by being submissive and understanding to what men desire. Filipino men should not get this wrong, they also adhere to these kinds of attitude but most Filipinas seek excitement when it comes to choosing partners from other parts of the globe.

This kind of mentality among filipinas is due to the modernization brought about by other nation in our country. Name it: financial stability, entertainment, culture, religion… everything.

Because Philippines is still under the third world country chart, filipinas seek stability from other people so as to live and build a better place for her and her utmost family. This is not a negative connotation. This is practicality and of course, reality. Filipinas also admire how westerns build their reputation as those who are brave and potent. This should be contributed to the films generated by Americans that depicts them as superior (in this manner) to others. And all of these reasons are what filipinas see. And men couldn’t argue filipinas who can’t help compare them with other nationalities. Others would say that majority of the men in the Philippines are playboy, gambler, abuser, etc.

“A filipina lady loves western men because she listens and adapts what true dating culture is: sacrifice and patience. And in return these men clearly understand her.”
