Another truth bomb from our Pea. The skin tone thing is also true in Thailand. My first Thai wife was from the NW where the woman tend to have lighter skin. Our first son was born in Bangkok. The nurses had never seen a blue eyed baby before, and being Eurasian he had lighter skin. They gave him much more attention than the full blood Thai babies. (By 6 weeks of age the dominant Brown genes had taken over, and his eyes were typical Asian brown.) My Pinay wife was from a small village where no Americans had ever ventured. Her family status was instantly raised do to having a White man joining the family. Silly, I know, but it's just the way it is.
I was born and raised on military bases, , after dad retired I was a police officer, corrections officer, then firefighter. I studied even to go into the ministry at one point. I never cared about your skin color just that you had my back. But yes I do enjoy the darker Filipinas
When I was in the philippines, I was amazed by how many ads there were on TV, Billboards and radio for skin whiting products! I asked my filipina coworkers at the company I worked for why all the ads for these products, they said, in the filipino culture that white skin is more attractive. I said well most of us Western men LOVE tan skin.
With much respect to Pea, hundreds of years of oftentimes brutal and savage white European and white American domination has produced this mentality. The association of dark skin with "field work" is a mere, coincidental off-shoot of the rationale for this mentality. It's not much different than than attitudes of subjugated peoples in the Americas, Africa, or the rest of Asia.
So True I saw the same thing in Thailand that their were products for lightening your skin and at the time I was there 2007 & 2008 I asked a Thai woman why that was because they don’t sell those products in America and she said the exact same thing that the lighter the skin you get the higher paying jobs or that they consider you to be more attractive. And I was like but don’t you know in Thailand 🇹🇭 Like the Philippines 🇵🇭 because this is a hot climate with sun beating down the majority of days you are more likely to get skin cancer ? They didn’t have an answer after that in 15-20 years watch and see the % of skin cancer rise in both countries.
It's the same all across Asia, its just simple marketing for makeup companies. In the West you are told its healthy to be tanned in Asia it's in Vogue to be white. It's shameless marketing, my wife gets annoyed about her skin color all the time, her tone is beautiful to me.
She's featured clips like this before. These are hilarious. I hope I'm not being crass, but she wears that outfit in these scenes that show her "figure" better. So many times I feel she hides her breasts. I hope it's not because she's ashamed at the size. She may be surprised at how many men prefer her size. You know the saying: "More than a handful is wasteful." 🥰
This is what my wife says: "When I was young I was bullied by many people because I am morena and big and have a dark complexion. They told me I will never find love or a husband. It made me feel shy and uncomfortable, i wanted to hide and be invisible. When I met my husband he always said I am beautiful and he likes my complexion - which I could not belief. One time we ate chocolate at the 7/11 and he compared a piece of chocolate with my skin. He said from now on I will call you CHOCO because you are sweet as chocolate and look like it. Today I am very proud to be morena and I would NEVER trade against white skin." Update 21.04.2024 Today she sent me a video showing her rehersal in the Siddhartha Musical Theater in Cebu. When she was younger she could never imagine in her keenest dreams she ever would be on a stage. Choco you make me so proud.🥰
I met a woman in Manila this past January. She was so afraid I would think she was too dark. When we met, we walking hand in hand with our fingers entwined. She made a comment about the contrast and I told her I was her cream and she was my coffee.
I’m with you brother I love that beautiful. Island Tan and I have watched the PEA since Covid. I’m her number one fan. Enjoyed her show very much but I can see she cannot take criticism. I am 63 went through segregation through the south and you can be racism against your own race. I grew up poor I have had racism from white rich, farmers discrimination and discrimination. If you do not get a job because of your skin it is what it is. I’m sorry if I heard her feelings, I’m number one fan but I will not turn my head when you’re shoveling shit😂😂
I was puzzled why my Filipina girlfriend while living in California would cover her face and run from the car to the mall on a sunny day, though she has very beautiful morena skin. Now married & living here in the Philippines, I learned why - It’s exactly as you explained it. I have to wear a long sleeve shirts while riding my bike, the Filipinas are amused when I tell them that I am jealous of their darker skin, because my white skin burns quickly. I tell them my skin was designed for Ireland where my ancestors are from, but here I am a fish out of water.😊
This is a different country. They don't have the same local issues with racism we have, they have different demographics and different history. There's literally a restaurant chain there called KKK. But it has nothing to do with our acronym in the US, nor do most Filipnos even think (and some don't even know) about it's meaning in the US. It means something else. It's a different culture. They love the west in their popular culture but still have their own with their own history/terms/acronyms. The west is more concerned with raciscm particularly in recent times (although ironically the younger generation that goes to the fancier western influenced educated schools there adopt some of western culture/values which imo is not always good, I prefer the more down to earth locals although easier to communicate with the western educated Ateneo/LaSalle types since my Tagalog is limited. That's another thing on another tangent, how they treat look up or down at other fellow locals by how well they speak English). Although one can argue there is some against foreigners sometimes (charging higher prices if they believe you are foreigner for example). I recall in one of the touristy provinces for a boating trip there was literally a sign that said "Local price" and "Foreigner price." That'd be illegal in most countries in the west. Even if it is usually not listed via sign foreingers will be charged more in many situations. Have your date/gf/wife do a lot of shopping and bargaining instead. I don't get too hung up on it, it is what it is.
The term red neck in the US originated over 100 years ago because a red neck comes from a white person doing manual labor in the sun. The status of an ordinary hard working person who does not have “wealth”. I agree with you and I love how you are not PC but just an honest person. That is totally respectable. Thank you
Wrong. The term red neck comes from Scottish immigrants belonging to an outed military group that identified themselves by a red hankerchief worn around their neck. They settled in rural areas and took up farming. The rich folk misunderstood the connection between farmers and Scottish farmers and labeled all rural farmers as red necks. FYI I am a redneck by both definitions 😅

Thats not what blk ppl mean at all since we know we did all that labor for you 👌
That’s not where the term redneck came from. It came from workers trying to organize a union and the battle they had with federal troops in West Virginia, the miners tied red bandannas around their necks so they didn’t shoot each other.
I just spent 10 days in Tondo, yes, the people there are dark skinned and they are kept in a lower status because of their skin color. I can tell you , they were the most awesome people I have ever met and I am in love with your people !
Not talking about a problem doesn't make it disappear. Racism and the many deaths that came from it were at it's highest in the US when people in power decided it didn't need to be talked about.
We see what years of " not talking about it" did in America... Morgan Freeman is an old actor, whose opinion does not necessarily warrant listening to.
Racism won't ever disappear completely, but at least we were doing the next best thing and disincentivised it. Now we've done the exact opposite and made it profitable to boot.
Just because something is part of people's culture doesn't mean it is right or not time for it to change. I so appreciate this video Pea because I was just discussing this with a Filipino friend who is constantly trying to whiten her skin. This being taught in the homes has taken away alot of self confidence from many I'm sure. So I hope the new generation slowly put a stop to this way of thinking so people can be proud and confident in their own skin. Love your videos Filipino Pea they are truly informative.
Pea, thanks for making this video, because a lot of my followers and acquaintances did not understand or believe me when I tried to explain this to them about the Philippines. Keep up the excellent work!❤️
I, an African-American who frequently gets mistook for a Filipino, agree wholeheartedly with this video. It has and still is my experience Here. My gorgeous Filipina girlfriend is a Morena girl and I'm constantly telling her to NEVER use skin whitening products because she is so beautiful. She actually looks like an African-American woman in many ways. Great video Pea!
Pea I just wanna say I love living in the Philippines and I will say I don’t think Filipinos are racist. I’m a white Latina woman and my husband is a black Latino man and when people see us they look shocked seeing an interracial couple but they’re used to us and we made friends. I have a black friend here who’s from Cuba and he’s with a Filipina woman and they have 5 beautiful kids together. We live in Bohol.
Pea, you are spot on. I have spent lots of time in the Philippines 🇵🇭. The billboards observation is so true. Everywhere I have gone the advertising and products are geared to light skin. I actually prefer my wife's skin. Her skin is fairly light, but she tans like a bronze goddess. I adore her tan lines. She is constantly asking me about her skin tone. She is VERY sensitive about her skin tone. As for me, I love her for who she is, not the way she looks. 😊 By the way, I am permanently retiring home to the Philippines in June! We both can't wait!!!!
Being "colonized" taught this mindset. S.E.Asia (except Thailand 🇹🇭) were all invaded by European countries. Thailand escaped colonization but it was a military vacation spot. The citizens of these countries were exploited. Thus, it seems to have created a "Stockholm Syndrome" mindset that still exists today. Bleaching cream is sold throughout the region. When you look at their TV and see their billboards you would think that these countries had no tan or brown citizens. I see this in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. Now I just learned it's the same in the Philippines. 😮
I'm a white guy and when I've talked to filipino girls talking about that shit I tell them that there are white women in Europe and America who tan themselves. The grass is always greener on the other side to people, til they get there. In the winter I am very white but in the summer I get golden bronze colored from the sun. It's life. It is not a burden.
The Pea says, “I am going to tell the truth, and if you are offended, I don’t care.” LIKE A BOSS-BABE! The Pea needs to run for president of the Philippines. It will the MPGA (Make Philippines Great Always) movement!
My wife was a gift from God. If I disrespect her, I disrespect God. The density of pigment in her skin, or flesh on her body, or knowledge in her head, only concerns me if it threatens her health. And yes, my wife is a filipina. And when she is not with me, I wait patiently and passionately for her return! It's Love baby! Truly Gods magic elixir!
As a "die hard" Star Trek fan... You had me rolling on the floor, laughing my ass off this morning... Thank you! A very good start to my long work day. As far as the video, you are "spot on", and we share very similar beliefs on "Preferences" vs "Racisim"... As a person of color myself, I have experienced many things in my past that my friends and family believed was racist. But, for me, I saw them as either 1, personal preferences 2.ignorance or 3.a vary narrow view of the world due to limited exposure, a more detailed explanation of #2. Have a Great Day Pea... Keep the great videos coming!!!
No, I am not new to the Channel, I have been a Pea fan for about two years... 🥰 However, I have not seen that one in a while... And I was having a particular rough morning at work, and that bit made me laugh 😂and took the edge off.@@ericlee2931
Wow... I'm glad you're bold enough to actually talk about this honestly, especially because it does hurt when you're rejected because of your skin tone... it's sad how that colonial mindset has affected so many. Thank you again for being real.
Thanks for doing this vid. Most Westerners dont understand squat outside of the West because they haven't really been anywhere. This chocolate man has had no problem dating in Asian countries. I always tell darker skin asians they are beautiful because they are. 😊😊😊
Our 'not-PC' Queen! Your videos and channel are some of what makes (some!) parts of TH-cam and Social Media great... Please do us ALL a favor: Don't EVER change!!
When I first met my Filipina wife, she was living in the U K. I was there to meet her in person from the US . She was telling me about her whitening lotion her sister had sent her. I looked at it and started laughing and she looked like she was going to cry! I explained to her how it worked, it didn’t make your skin “lighter” it kept you from getting a sun tan! The main ingredient was SPF40! I still, after 12 years tell her she has the most beautiful skin I’ve ever seen, almost every woman in America would kill for your skin tone! She told me that almost all Filipinas would gladly trade them! I understand, but I can’t (still) believe it. I love you videos Pea. I was lucky, the way I found my wife, if you are ever interested in the story feel free to message me. But it was (in my opinion) Devine intervention.
Hey Little Bit. As a westerner I enjoy bronze skin. I think a white Filipino would be an anomaly. I worked outside for 40 years and enjoyed being darker during the summer. Be proud of what and who you are, after all God created you.
You did a great job of differentiating the difference between racism and colour preference and why. You are remarkably perceptive and intuitive. Well done !
"you folks are hypersensitive to the subject". Nailed it, Pea. As always, you've tackled an interesting and timely subject rationally and with maturity. Well done!
Yeah if you’re tan in the west it indicates you are wealthy enough to travel. And healthy from spending time doing things outdoors. If you are vampire white it indicates you are likely a gamer or worse 😂
Pea! I would have never guessed that you are off the calendar! 😉 My wife is Filipina, so when I saw your thumbnail I knew exactly what you would be talking about. She does not try to lighten her skin, but she does go to great lengths to prevent being exposed to the sun because she does not want to get darker. I have told her that American men like darker skin because it is exotic, but she tells me that in the Ph it means you are poor because you most likely have to work outside doing manual labor. I have gotten used to her hiding herself from the sun, and not understanding that what she is trying to prevent is beautiful. I will love her no matter what her skin tone is.
Same here. My wife is Thai and is dark skinned and had the same issues growing up. Always covering up in the sun because of how society, mainly Thai Chinese people spread the narrative that lighter skin is better and shows coming from a better class that didn't have to do manual labor etc. Like most Americans, I find attractiveness in her darker skin tone, not just because she's dark but because it's who she is. Then when our kids were born, she was happy they turned out light skinned like me, their father. Then complains that people think she's not their mother but the nanny 🙄.. It's it's not being too dark is the problem then being too light is the problem. 😁
My wife is dark skin Filipina. I said to all of her dark skin friends to look for a white guy instead to try to look white. We appreciate your skin color. You are attractive to us dark skinned.
Philipino women are beautiful regardless of color. Your complexion for instance, is point on: not too dark, not too light, but, just right. I can say this because im a portrait artist- i have drawn hundreds of portraits from all walks of life. And i was always attracted to darker shades of color.
If you find someones complexion 'point on', not too dark, not too light, I presume that is just personal preference in an "artistic kind of way", though it sounds a bit odd in the same sentence as 'regardless of color'. Anyway, no worries, i don't see racism in every corner 🙂
The aboriginals of the mountainous areas especially, were Black. Through years and years of "systemic blending" and more naturally selective alternatives, the byproduct of all of those things are what is experienced today. Colorism included...
A superb video! I prefer morena Filipina, like my Filipina wife. But, your description of skin color correlating to economic status in the Philippines is spot on. Of course, many of my Filipina nieces prefer to be lighter skinned. As you said, I have met very few Filipinos who are possibly racist. The vast majority are the most adaptable and accepting people in the world. Thanks again for your honest perspectives.
My Goodness...this video at the end was Hilarious!!😂😂🤣🤣 You are quite talented and creative! Now regarding the subject matter...you did a Superb Job in explaining the Colorism in the Phillipines, and the basis of it's origins, and how it presents in today's Phillipine Society!! This was an Awesome Video!!
If Asians love to be white, thats Wonderful ! They look 20 and 30 years younger for protecting their skin from the suns harmful rays. Thats very smart, thats like the fountain of youth ! Ive seen white asian women in their 70s , and Thought Oh Wow , What flawless skin, What a beautiful lady.Their faces were like a 25 year old ! And Pea, your beautiful skin color and tone is amazing ! Women in the west would give everything in their bank account to have your beautiful radiant skin color. Thats why there is a tanning salon on every other block in the US.
P, My gf is sensitive about her skin colour, she's very similiar in tone to you. Unfortunately, she is the most beautiful lady in the world. You keep up the good work young lady. Semper fi...
Good morning Miss Pea this video was a topic that hit such an area that is highly misunderstood,and has different meanings in different parts of the world. I'm from a middle class family and like darker skin women myself. I'm a Caucasian male not wealthy.
Now since I have been here as an older American Black Man living in Malate I have found no one to be racist to me . Of course what they say behind my back or what they say in Tagalog I would not understand The great thing in my 2nd trip here in 2018 I found a Filipino who I Consider a Brother from another mother. He helped me out as I was still learning about the country and one day sitting at an outdoor restaurant he just walked up to me and we started chatting and soon sharing a bucket of Red horse beer. I made sure when I came back to live here I spoke with him after 5 years from my last trip to the Philippines He helped me find my condo apartment in Malate and I have let him know that if he needs anything from in terms of financial help I am here and since family is a big thing here I consider him my brother so he knows if he wants something I will be there for himI even have him and his wife vetting the Filipina ladies that I want to get to know so I don’t find one that has just getting my money but will be a loyal companion.
Let’s face it, racism does exist throughout the world. No need to sugarcoat it or pretend that it doesn’t. But true love has no color so embrace who you are and walk with your head up high ❤ and love the people that love you back 🥰 salamat .
This is a intelligent, real facts, explained topic that describes the real culture of the Philippines versus the racial tinged concepts of westerners. These are topics that are direly needed for all cultures. Thank you, Salamat Po, Ms. Pea❤ You are such a beautiful intelligent woman that makes me yearn for the Philippines and meeting you!
Different cultures make life interesting, many of us travel to enrich our perspective about life, and we love breaking the norm, Britain was founded on gathering cultures, food and goods, our merchant fleet helped us grow, And Filipinos hold such beauty for us as do many other nations,
I Absolutely Adore my Filapina and Her Beautiful Chocolate Color matches Her Intelligence and WISDOM! To match Her Chocolate Complexion Her Beautiful Brown Eyes! Her Nose is a delight, My Grandmother had the Same Wonderful Shape!!!
Loved the skits at the end. Amazing how Kirk packs his American Tourister suitcase from the 60's to transport down to the planet. You would have thought they would have foreseen that luggage would actually undergo some advancements or improvements in the future. Great video Pea, I gave it a 👍.
Pea, Your Ending on this Video made me Laugh so Hard I fell out of Bed and Hurt my Shoulder!!! My Beloved Sister , Your Future is Growing Brighter Everyday !!!! That Ending was Fantastic, GIRL YOU ARE AMAZING ♥️🥰🌹😘
Wow, #TheFilipinapea, i’ve already told you I’m a civil rights leader from the United States of America and I am actually watching this video Recording that you’ve done roughly 9 hours ago. Which my civil rights story got started back in 2016. My wife joined me in 2018. Like I said I’ve been watching this video recording for 2 minutes and 34 seconds. I am so far very extremely impressed with what you said and I full heartedly agree with absolutely everything you have said so far. I have really enjoyed your channel so I am going to watch this very closely and then I’ll tell you my opinion after I watch this recording which since I am really the only true modern day civil rights leader in the United States of America 100% tied to very serious United States of American history I think my opinion matters a lot a whole lot but you’ve definitely got my attention and I definitely am enjoying what I’m listening to nicely well said for the first 2 minutes and 34 seconds brilliantly well said #theFilipinapea
Yes, people in the Philippines 🇵🇭 don't like to have dark skin in general. My wife, who is filipina, avoids the sun like the plague, so her skin does not turn dark. I am a white guy and this is funny to me because white people try to get tan because it is sexy to us in general.
Good job! Well done! I've been to the Philippines twice and as a black male I was confused when it came down to the subject of race and your explanation was well put. Thank you.
My Filipina is overly concerned about her skin tone and my stepdaughter is always comparing her tone to her mothers. I keep telling them it doesn't matter, here in the states we all try for darker, all that matters is their heart.
Thank you for breaking that down Filipina Pea, I always tell men here in America, most filipinos I've met in the Philippines are not racist, they may be colorist but no racist. I've been traveling to the Philippines since 2008 and filipinos are some of the kindess people I have met, and I do travel often all over the world.
Interesting... I didn't put much thought into the skin-tone subject, so it's a helpful perspective as to the reasoning behind it; status/wealth/appearance isn't something I grew up caring about as a westerner that grew up in first-world-poverty, so I can see why it can be mis-translated as 'racist' at first-glance. I started dating a Filipina a few months ago, and she seems obsessed with light skin, but I figured there's probably more depth to it, as she doesn't give me the impression that it has anything to do with some prejudice with/against race. Thanks for the insight! your videos have been helping me a lot since I tuned in a month ago.
wrong by far the biggest source of racism is race hustling by "authorities" like the media and the government telling people that one race is "more evil / worse /colonizers etc."
Preach it Pea!!!! That was a practically perfect presentation. So brilliantly and diplomatically said. Thank you for enlightening and entertaining us. Bless you
You explained that very well Pea. As a ex military member who has been around the world, I noticed this same history and mindset in Central and South America .
I get what you are saying about skin color. Colorism is an ugly part of the African American community. As a very dark skinned African American, I experienced some of the rudest/racist behavior in the Philippines. I spent 20 years in the military and have lived in many different countries. I have never been treated anywhere the way I was treated in the Philippines. I had a group of school children near my condo (Soltana Nature Residences) in Lapu, Lapu, yell out the “N” word repeatedly at me. People working at the mall in stores where I was spending money would make all kinds of disrespectful gestures. It happened so often that I didn’t want to go anywhere with my wife and her family. Everyone’s experience is different, but for me, it was a totally unpleasant situation.
If you're a Filipina trying to attract a western white guy...take my advice and keep your natural darker skin intact. My Filipina wife looks amazing with a tan!
I lived 5 years with the devil's cousin (my evil ex) and one time our son when he was 7 said, "Dad do you know mom is black?". I knew she was evil but never noticed that she was darker than me. She is Bolivian aboriginal and on many days her skin is as darker than Filipina Pea's legs and on other days she is as white as Filipina Pea. During the old Canadian winters, I was as white as a Scandinavian and when I worked in construction I was darker than a Middle Eastern. to be honest I love tanned women but love black girls as well and I am crazy about white. In bed, I had no preferences. my preferences for Filipinas have more to do with them being kinder,,,, My preference is a Godly woman, if a woman is the most beautiful but does not know God then she is not my type. Since a very young age I was seeking women because I felt that was where love was. during my childhood, I believed I was ugly because that was what I heard from home...So I went on a rampage of hunting sex............ in Canada we have all nations living in the same city therefore I likely dated women from every nation however I found God and I do not date however what God leads to is who I will marry. But I have to admit that all Philipinas that I dated lived in Canada and the only one I was engaged to was from Leyte and before the wedding in Cebu Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu Philippines., I also canceled all the bedroom rentals for the entire family all as she was a professional certified gold digger. so my dear Filipina Pea, if you are lighter or darker down there you will be pink, and to me if your heart is not washed by the blood of the Lamb it will not have any value. The Lamb is Yahshua Ha'Mashiach was the Sacrificial Lamb for the atonement of our sins yes Jesus Christ's blood has to be in the doorposts of your heart. Believe and Trust and you will see Miracles. Don’t wait for a Miracle for you to believe because you will never see one. Giving is loving True Ahava, true love, is more concerned with giving than receiving. Being the center of someone's attention isn't love. And love isn't about getting some feeling or fix. Ahava(love) is about giving devotion and time. Giving is the vehicle of love. Yahweh so loved the world that He GAVE His only Son. Meaningful relationships have mutual giving. Love may focus on receiving, but Ahava is all about giving. THE 4 TYPES OF LOVE TRANSLITERATED TO GREEK found in the Bible In English, the word love is overrated, overused it, and often used in vain without proper meaning or worse without feelings attached to the word LOVE. Storge - empathy bond. Family love Philia - friend bond. brotherhood love Eros - romantic love. sexual love, Agape - unconditional "Elohim's" love Love from above
Hey Pea, may this comment find you and yours blessed. I hate to tell you this but this debate about "lightness" has been done in America a 100 years ago. My late mother-in-law experienced the middle point of the lightness debate. She was tall, considered extremely well-built physically and highly intelligent. So, even though she was a farmer's daughter--working outside most of the time-her other attributes weighed the scales in her favor. Even today African Americans try to choose a lighter skinned partner. Filipinas are very open as "breeding" stock. I have studied ethnology (the study of races) and when you interview young women for different segments, I can see ever Asian race across the continent, and even Caucasians (that is Filipinas who could pass for white). I have seen mixes between Westerners and Filipinas that are incredible. The mother may be 4'9" and her daughter might turn out to be 5'7" and the original "Filipino look' can be completely lost and the daughter may look entirely Western. In the West, especially America/Canada we have the inverse of the PH. We favor darker mates, because if they have the time to become tanned it's a sign of higher financial status. Bravo Pea, you have brought up a very interesting topic.

Thank you Pea!
And brilliant !!
Another truth bomb from our Pea. The skin tone thing is also true in Thailand. My first Thai wife was from the NW where the woman tend to have lighter skin. Our first son was born in Bangkok. The nurses had never seen a blue eyed baby before, and being Eurasian he had lighter skin. They gave him much more attention than the full blood Thai babies. (By 6 weeks of age the dominant Brown genes had taken over, and his eyes were typical Asian brown.)
My Pinay wife was from a small village where no Americans had ever ventured. Her family status was instantly raised do to having a White man joining the family. Silly, I know, but it's just the way it is.
I was born and raised on military bases, , after dad retired I was a police officer, corrections officer, then firefighter. I studied even to go into the ministry at one point. I never cared about your skin color just that you had my back. But yes I do enjoy the darker Filipinas
❤️🌹🌹👋🇺🇸🫡
When I was in the philippines, I was amazed by how many ads there were on TV, Billboards and radio for skin whiting products! I asked my filipina coworkers at the company I worked for why all the ads for these products, they said, in the filipino culture that white skin is more attractive. I said well most of us Western men LOVE tan skin.
With much respect to Pea, hundreds of years of oftentimes brutal and savage white European and white American domination has produced this mentality. The association of dark skin with "field work" is a mere, coincidental off-shoot of the rationale for this mentality. It's not much different than than attitudes of subjugated peoples in the Americas, Africa, or the rest of Asia.
The grass is always greener 🤣
So True I saw the same thing in Thailand that their were products for lightening your skin and at the time I was there 2007 & 2008 I asked a Thai woman why that was because they don’t sell those products in America and she said the exact same thing that the lighter the skin you get the higher paying jobs or that they consider you to be more attractive. And I was like but don’t you know in Thailand 🇹🇭 Like the Philippines 🇵🇭 because this is a hot climate with sun beating down the majority of days you are more likely to get skin cancer ? They didn’t have an answer after that in 15-20 years watch and see the % of skin cancer rise in both countries.
Not greener. Tanner. Hahaha
It's the same all across Asia, its just simple marketing for makeup companies. In the West you are told its healthy to be tanned in Asia it's in Vogue to be white. It's shameless marketing, my wife gets annoyed about her skin color all the time, her tone is beautiful to me.
The Star Trek ending was awesome!
Thanks, FC 🤣🤣👍
I didnt know you loved Star Trek !!!!!
@@TheFilipinaPea It's only logical.
The ending shud have been capt Kirk taking over the Philliopines!!
She's featured clips like this before. These are hilarious.
I hope I'm not being crass, but she wears that outfit in these scenes that show her "figure" better. So many times I feel she hides her breasts. I hope it's not because she's ashamed at the size. She may be surprised at how many men prefer her size. You know the saying: "More than a handful is wasteful." 🥰
This is what my wife says:
"When I was young I was bullied by many people because I am morena and big and have a dark complexion. They told me I will never find love or a husband. It made me feel shy and uncomfortable, i wanted to hide and be invisible. When I met my husband he always said I am beautiful and he likes my complexion - which I could not belief. One time we ate chocolate at the 7/11 and he compared a piece of chocolate with my skin. He said from now on I will call you CHOCO because you are sweet as chocolate and look like it. Today I am very proud to be morena and I would NEVER trade against white skin."
Update 21.04.2024 Today she sent me a video showing her rehersal in the Siddhartha Musical Theater in Cebu. When she was younger she could never imagine in her keenest dreams she ever would be on a stage. Choco you make me so proud.🥰
White is void of color.
That's hilarious! ❤ I call my fiancee "Brown sugar" and she ask me "Why you call me Brown Sucre?" And I said "Cos you're brown, and you're sweet!" 😂❤
Where is she from? DR?

I met a woman in Manila this past January. She was so afraid I would think she was too dark. When we met, we walking hand in hand with our fingers entwined. She made a comment about the contrast and I told her I was her cream and she was my coffee.
I walked through the province, and I saw many darked skinned Filipinas. I was in Paradise! 🙂
Yes, I can only imagine! Morenas are some of the most strikingly beautiful women I have EVER seen. ❤
Those morena ladies have no idea what a prize they are. That golden brown/honey color skin for the win.
@JohnMiller123
Yes, they are. It takes a while to convince them just how beautiful that brown skin is to us foreign guys
Absolutely lovely and exotic🧡
I’m with you brother I love that beautiful. Island Tan and I have watched the PEA since Covid. I’m her number one fan. Enjoyed her show very much but I can see she cannot take criticism. I am 63 went through segregation through the south and you can be racism against your own race. I grew up poor I have had racism from white rich, farmers discrimination and discrimination. If you do not get a job because of your skin it is what it is. I’m sorry if I heard her feelings, I’m number one fan but I will not turn my head when you’re shoveling shit😂😂
I was puzzled why my Filipina girlfriend while living in California would cover her face and run from the car to the mall on a sunny day, though she has very beautiful morena skin.
Now married & living here in the Philippines, I learned why - It’s exactly as you explained it.
I have to wear a long sleeve shirts while riding my bike, the Filipinas are amused when I tell them that I am jealous of their darker skin, because my white skin burns quickly. I tell them my skin was designed for Ireland where my ancestors are from, but here I am a fish out of water.😊
Pea's not racist. She's radiant!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TheFilipinaPeashe's actually not a Filipino, she's African
Yup!
This is a different country. They don't have the same local issues with racism we have, they have different demographics and different history. There's literally a restaurant chain there called KKK. But it has nothing to do with our acronym in the US, nor do most Filipnos even think (and some don't even know) about it's meaning in the US. It means something else. It's a different culture. They love the west in their popular culture but still have their own with their own history/terms/acronyms.
The west is more concerned with raciscm particularly in recent times (although ironically the younger generation that goes to the fancier western influenced educated schools there adopt some of western culture/values which imo is not always good, I prefer the more down to earth locals although easier to communicate with the western educated Ateneo/LaSalle types since my Tagalog is limited. That's another thing on another tangent, how they treat look up or down at other fellow locals by how well they speak English). Although one can argue there is some against foreigners sometimes (charging higher prices if they believe you are foreigner for example). I recall in one of the touristy provinces for a boating trip there was literally a sign that said "Local price" and "Foreigner price." That'd be illegal in most countries in the west. Even if it is usually not listed via sign foreingers will be charged more in many situations. Have your date/gf/wife do a lot of shopping and bargaining instead. I don't get too hung up on it, it is what it is.
Excellent commentary. Thanks for sharing.
The term red neck in the US originated over 100 years ago because a red neck comes from a white person doing manual labor in the sun. The status of an ordinary hard working person who does not have “wealth”. I agree with you and I love how you are not PC but just an honest person. That is totally respectable. Thank you
and people still use Redneck to mean "poor and stupid". I guess some things don't change.
Wrong. The term red neck comes from Scottish immigrants belonging to an outed military group that identified themselves by a red hankerchief worn around their neck. They settled in rural areas and took up farming. The rich folk misunderstood the connection between farmers and Scottish farmers and labeled all rural farmers as red necks. FYI I am a redneck by both definitions 😅
Thats not what blk ppl mean at all since we know we did all that labor for you 👌
@@malikon6953If you want to see a dumb stunt you can for sure see it from a Red Neck, not quite a stupid as the swamp guys though, lol.
That’s not where the term redneck came from. It came from workers trying to organize a union and the battle they had with federal troops in West Virginia, the miners tied red bandannas around their necks so they didn’t shoot each other.
Pea, I love your deep honey coloured skin. Your skin colour is beautiful to many Europeans. The most important thing is a persons heart.
My Thai girlfriend does not like me watching Pea’s videos 😆
@@wmjohns881
😄😄😄
@@wmjohns881And I do (not) wonder why..
I just spent 10 days in Tondo, yes, the people there are dark skinned and they are kept in a lower status because of their skin color.
I can tell you , they were the most awesome people I have ever met and I am in love with your people !
During an interview in America, actor Morgan Freeman was asked, “What can be done to make racism disappear?” He said, “Stop talking about it.”
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
But ‘they’ (the media, and a certain political party) don’t want to solve the problem
Not talking about a problem doesn't make it disappear. Racism and the many deaths that came from it were at it's highest in the US when people in power decided it didn't need to be talked about.
@@TheFilipinaPea Yes the MSM is the most dangerous enemy that the people in America have
We see what years of " not talking about it" did in America... Morgan Freeman is an old actor, whose opinion does not necessarily warrant listening to.
Racism won't ever disappear completely, but at least we were doing the next best thing and disincentivised it. Now we've done the exact opposite and made it profitable to boot.
Just because something is part of people's culture doesn't mean it is right or not time for it to change. I so appreciate this video Pea because I was just discussing this with a Filipino friend who is constantly trying to whiten her skin. This being taught in the homes has taken away alot of self confidence from many I'm sure. So I hope the new generation slowly put a stop to this way of thinking so people can be proud and confident in their own skin. Love your videos Filipino Pea they are truly informative.
unfortunately the new generation is worse! Social media has conditioned them even further down that hole.
@CoachDarren Very Well Stated!
I love the dark morena filipina, in my eyes they are the epitomy of beauty
ndeed
I agree
Unfortunately, they must be convinced just how beautiful that morena complexion is to us foreign men.
Because of people like you, the price and demands of morena women are increasing. STUFU
Pea, thanks for making this video, because a lot of my followers and acquaintances did not understand or believe me when I tried to explain this to them about the Philippines. Keep up the excellent work!❤️
I, an African-American who frequently gets mistook for a Filipino, agree wholeheartedly with this video. It has and still is my experience Here. My gorgeous Filipina girlfriend is a Morena girl and I'm constantly telling her to NEVER use skin whitening products because she is so beautiful. She actually looks like an African-American woman in many ways. Great video Pea!
Pea I just wanna say I love living in the Philippines and I will say I don’t think Filipinos are racist. I’m a white Latina woman and my husband is a black Latino man and when people see us they look shocked seeing an interracial couple but they’re used to us and we made friends. I have a black friend here who’s from Cuba and he’s with a Filipina woman and they have 5 beautiful kids together. We live in Bohol.
filipinos are racist towards white people. they are obsessed with black people
Pea, you are spot on. I have spent lots of time in the Philippines 🇵🇭. The billboards observation is so true. Everywhere I have gone the advertising and products are geared to light skin. I actually prefer my wife's skin. Her skin is fairly light, but she tans like a bronze goddess. I adore her tan lines. She is constantly asking me about her skin tone. She is VERY sensitive about her skin tone. As for me, I love her for who she is, not the way she looks. 😊
By the way, I am permanently retiring home to the Philippines in June! We both can't wait!!!!
I despise that Philippine TV shows promote skin lightening products. Malcolm X once said " Who taught you to hate your skin color "
Being "colonized" taught this mindset. S.E.Asia (except Thailand 🇹🇭) were all invaded by European countries. Thailand escaped colonization but it was a military vacation spot. The citizens of these countries were exploited. Thus, it seems to have created a "Stockholm Syndrome" mindset that still exists today. Bleaching cream is sold throughout the region. When you look at their TV and see their billboards you would think that these countries had no tan or brown citizens. I see this in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. Now I just learned it's the same in the Philippines. 😮
I'm a white guy and when I've talked to filipino girls talking about that shit I tell them that there are white women in Europe and America who tan themselves. The grass is always greener on the other side to people, til they get there. In the winter I am very white but in the summer I get golden bronze colored from the sun. It's life. It is not a burden.
Malcom x also tried to warn blacks about the liberal party, yet they didnt listen. Brainwashing is strong
The Pea says, “I am going to tell the truth, and if you are offended, I don’t care.” LIKE A BOSS-BABE!
The Pea needs to run for president of the Philippines. It will the MPGA (Make Philippines Great Always) movement!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Philippines Awesomely Great Anytime !!!
If Pea went into politics it would force her to become something she isn't. Politics is controlled and she is authentic. They are not a match.
How about president of the United States? They could do with someone young and dynamic.
@@joehart7260 That is ok, our current President is doing just fine...........while not being a serial criminal.
My wife was a gift from God. If I disrespect her, I disrespect God. The density of pigment in her skin, or flesh on her body, or knowledge in her head, only concerns me if it threatens her health. And yes, my wife is a filipina. And when she is not with me, I wait patiently and passionately for her return! It's Love baby! Truly Gods magic elixir!
This video was fantastic!!! Well done!
And the Star Trek and pirate portions at the end were hliarious!!!
🤣🤣🤣👍
A land of dark skinned beauties is definitely paradise. Love your Star Trek skits.
Because of people like you, the price and demands of morena women are increasing. STUFU
As a "die hard" Star Trek fan... You had me rolling on the floor, laughing my ass off this morning... Thank you! A very good start to my long work day.
As far as the video, you are "spot on", and we share very similar beliefs on "Preferences" vs "Racisim"...
As a person of color myself, I have experienced many things in my past that my friends and family believed was racist. But, for me, I saw them as either 1, personal preferences 2.ignorance or 3.a vary narrow view of the world due to limited exposure, a more detailed explanation of #2.
Have a Great Day Pea... Keep the great videos coming!!!
Thanks Malcom 🤣👍
You must be new to the channel. Pea has been running that Star Trek bit for like years 4 now.
No, I am not new to the Channel, I have been a Pea fan for about two years... 🥰
However, I have not seen that one in a while... And I was having a particular rough morning at work, and that bit made me laugh 😂and took the edge off.@@ericlee2931
I love brown and dark brown beauty is more than skin its the heart and the love of God!!!!
Wow... I'm glad you're bold enough to actually talk about this honestly, especially because it does hurt when you're rejected because of your skin tone... it's sad how that colonial mindset has affected so many. Thank you again for being real.
lol
colonial mindset........you woke fuck
Thanks for doing this vid. Most Westerners dont understand squat outside of the West because they haven't really been anywhere. This chocolate man has had no problem dating in Asian countries. I always tell darker skin asians they are beautiful because they are. 😊😊😊

Awww thanks, AJ! I won’t ❤️
Always straight talk, to the point, no filters used.. Loved your chat, and the Star Trek, and Pirate skit was fantastic.. Luv U Pea.. 😊💯❤👍
When I first met my Filipina wife, she was living in the U K. I was there to meet her in person from the US . She was telling me about her whitening lotion her sister had sent her. I looked at it and started laughing and she looked like she was going to cry! I explained to her how it worked, it didn’t make your skin “lighter” it kept you from getting a sun tan! The main ingredient was SPF40!
I still, after 12 years tell her she has the most beautiful skin I’ve ever seen, almost every woman in America would kill for your skin tone! She told me that almost all Filipinas would gladly trade them! I understand, but I can’t (still) believe it. I love you videos Pea. I was lucky, the way I found my wife, if you are ever interested in the story feel free to message me. But it was (in my opinion) Devine intervention.
👍👍👍
Your wife's story is pretty typical. Those Filipinas with a tan/brown/honey complexion don't understand just how beautiful that is to us foreign men.
So VERY eloquently said and VERY honest! Maraming Salamat sa wealth of knowledge! Maayong Buntag! Pagpalain kayo ng Diyos!!
Pea, this one is for the record books! I love your creativity, directness, and humor! 😘
Hey Little Bit. As a westerner I enjoy bronze skin. I think a white Filipino would be an anomaly. I worked outside for 40 years and enjoyed being darker during the summer. Be proud of what and who you are, after all God created you.
I sure appreciate my bronze skin 👍😊
Or cinnamon 😋
I had a Chinese girlfriend, who explained to me that her obsession with milky white skin was she didn’t want to look like a peasant.
You make our country proud. You articulate your points so well. Bravo girl bravo!
Busy trying to figure out how to like this video more than once! Brilliant!
❤️❤️❤️👍
Pea, I have to tell you, I love this video. And your observations are on point. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Charles! 👍👍👍
You did a great job of differentiating the difference between racism and colour preference and why. You are remarkably perceptive and intuitive. Well done !
"you folks are hypersensitive to the subject". Nailed it, Pea. As always, you've tackled an interesting and timely subject rationally and with maturity. Well done!
Thanks Roger 👍👍
Mexico had that same problem with Spain, in fact they were once called "New Spain"
What I've learned about the Asian culture pertaining to skin color, that it signifies economic and social statuses.
EXACTLY 👍
Yeah if you’re tan in the west it indicates you are wealthy enough to travel. And healthy from spending time doing things outdoors. If you are vampire white it indicates you are likely a gamer or worse 😂
PEA:
Touchy subject, but you handled it with class and dignity just like all your other videos. Keep up the awesome work my friend!
Thanks CK! 👍👍❤️
I never experienced racism out here I experience more of classism
Yes, we have a caste system 👍
Pea! I would have never guessed that you are off the calendar! 😉 My wife is Filipina, so when I saw your thumbnail I knew exactly what you would be talking about. She does not try to lighten her skin, but she does go to great lengths to prevent being exposed to the sun because she does not want to get darker. I have told her that American men like darker skin because it is exotic, but she tells me that in the Ph it means you are poor because you most likely have to work outside doing manual labor. I have gotten used to her hiding herself from the sun, and not understanding that what she is trying to prevent is beautiful. I will love her no matter what her skin tone is.
Same here. My wife is Thai and is dark skinned and had the same issues growing up. Always covering up in the sun because of how society, mainly Thai Chinese people spread the narrative that lighter skin is better and shows coming from a better class that didn't have to do manual labor etc. Like most Americans, I find attractiveness in her darker skin tone, not just because she's dark but because it's who she is. Then when our kids were born, she was happy they turned out light skinned like me, their father. Then complains that people think she's not their mother but the nanny 🙄.. It's it's not being too dark is the problem then being too light is the problem. 😁
My wife is dark skin Filipina. I said to all of her dark skin friends to look for a white guy instead to try to look white. We appreciate your skin color. You are attractive to us dark skinned.
Philipino women are beautiful regardless of color. Your complexion for instance, is point on: not too dark, not too light, but, just right. I can say this because im a portrait artist- i have drawn hundreds of portraits from all walks of life. And i was always attracted to darker shades of color.
If you’re ever in Dumaguete, I’ll have to get you to draw me! 😊👍
@@TheFilipinaPea , Thanks, Pea. If I'm ever there, I will. You'd love it- a full color masterpiece.
If you find someones complexion 'point on', not too dark, not too light, I presume that is just personal preference in an "artistic kind of way", though it sounds a bit odd in the same sentence as 'regardless of color'. Anyway, no worries, i don't see racism in every corner 🙂
The aboriginals of the mountainous areas especially, were Black. Through years and years of "systemic blending" and more naturally selective alternatives, the byproduct of all of those things are what is experienced today. Colorism included...
@@Ed19601, pardon my colloquy. it's not meant as such.
A superb video! I prefer morena Filipina, like my Filipina wife. But, your description of skin color correlating to economic status in the Philippines is spot on. Of course, many of my Filipina nieces prefer to be lighter skinned. As you said, I have met very few Filipinos who are possibly racist. The vast majority are the most adaptable and accepting people in the world. Thanks again for your honest perspectives.
Hi pea, it's 34F on this crisp west Texas morning. I'm positive it's warmer where you are.
WOW! Yes, it’s bloody hot here! 😳
Louisiana here. Don't worry you won't have to complain about the cold for much longer lol.
nice I'm in FL and its 69.
lulz I didn't realize it was 38° right now outside until I read your comment. I live in Texas too so color me surprised when I opened the door.
60 and rainy in N.Alabama 😑
My Goodness...this video at the end was Hilarious!!😂😂🤣🤣
You are quite talented and creative!
Now regarding the subject matter...you did a Superb Job in explaining the Colorism in the Phillipines, and the basis of it's origins, and how it presents in today's Phillipine Society!! This was an Awesome Video!!
If Asians love to be white, thats Wonderful ! They look 20 and 30 years younger for protecting their skin from the suns harmful rays. Thats very smart, thats like the fountain of youth ! Ive seen white asian women in their 70s , and Thought Oh Wow , What flawless skin, What a beautiful lady.Their faces were like a 25 year old ! And Pea, your beautiful skin color and tone is amazing ! Women in the west would give everything in their bank account to have your beautiful radiant skin color. Thats why there is a tanning salon on every other block in the US.
I've been married to a Filipina for several decades and some of this information I still didn't realize. Thank you. Hugs Pea. 🤗 Thanks
Regardless of color I think you all are absolutely gorgeous! ❤
Thank You 🙏 The Pea is Truly The Best ❤

Now since I have been here as an older American Black Man living in Malate I have found no one to be racist to me . Of course what they say behind my back or what they say in Tagalog I would not understand The great thing in my 2nd trip here in 2018 I found a Filipino who I Consider a Brother from another mother. He helped me out as I was still learning about the country and one day sitting at an outdoor restaurant he just walked up to me and we started chatting and soon sharing a bucket of Red horse beer. I made sure when I came back to live here I spoke with him after 5 years from my last trip to the Philippines He helped me find my condo apartment in Malate and I have let him know that if he needs anything from in terms of financial help I am here and since family is a big thing here I consider him my brother so he knows if he wants something I will be there for himI even have him and his wife vetting the Filipina ladies that I want to get to know so I don’t find one that has just getting my money but will be a loyal companion.
Let’s face it, racism does exist throughout the world. No need to sugarcoat it or pretend that it doesn’t. But true love has no color so embrace who you are and walk with your head up high ❤ and love the people that love you back 🥰 salamat

Pea, you stay you. You are a great example of an intelligent, attractive, and strong Filipina woman.
Wow, #TheFilipinapea, i’ve already told you I’m a civil rights leader from the United States of America and I am actually watching this video Recording that you’ve done roughly 9 hours ago. Which my civil rights story got started back in 2016. My wife joined me in 2018. Like I said I’ve been watching this video recording for 2 minutes and 34 seconds. I am so far very extremely impressed with what you said and I full heartedly agree with absolutely everything you have said so far. I have really enjoyed your channel so I am going to watch this very closely and then I’ll tell you my opinion after I watch this recording which since I am really the only true modern day civil rights leader in the United States of America 100% tied to very serious United States of American history I think my opinion matters a lot a whole lot but you’ve definitely got my attention and I definitely am enjoying what I’m listening to nicely well said for the first 2 minutes and 34 seconds brilliantly well said #theFilipinapea
Be proud of who you are in life God created us all equal.

Thanks & Blessings Pea!!
Great Information!!
Another good upload. Cheers Pea 😊
Scotty! Thanks for making it today 👍😊
Yes, people in the Philippines 🇵🇭 don't like to have dark skin in general. My wife, who is filipina, avoids the sun like the plague, so her skin does not turn dark.
I am a white guy and this is funny to me because white people try to get tan because it is sexy to us in general.
Good job! Well done! I've been to the Philippines twice and as a black male I was confused when it came down to the subject of race and your explanation was well put. Thank you.
Your videos are great to watch. I never turn one off in the middle. They definitely show a lot of work went into their creation.
❤️❤️❤️👍
My Filipina is overly concerned about her skin tone and my stepdaughter is always comparing her tone to her mothers. I keep telling them it doesn't matter, here in the states we all try for darker, all that matters is their heart.
Are they wishing they were lighter? 😊
❤❤ Happy Tuesday Ms Pea ❤❤ always a pleasure to see you
And always - always - a pleasure to see you here too ❤️
I have seen this "Whitening" of the skin in most Asian Countries! We all want to be what we are not! I think that the Morena Pinay are so Gorgeous!
Every skin colour is sexy. It depends on how you manage your body and yourself
Thanks for sharing Pea. As always, you hit a home run. Keep it up!
Thanks John!! 👍❤️❤️
Pea thank you for the another education video about your country.
Thanks! That’s my job 👍🤣
colorism = classism = statusism = racism
The mechanisms are the same.
Thank you for breaking that down Filipina Pea, I always tell men here in America, most filipinos I've met in the Philippines are not racist, they may be colorist but no racist. I've been traveling to the Philippines since 2008 and filipinos are some of the kindess people I have met, and I do travel often all over the world.
Interesting... I didn't put much thought into the skin-tone subject, so it's a helpful perspective as to the reasoning behind it; status/wealth/appearance isn't something I grew up caring about as a westerner that grew up in first-world-poverty, so I can see why it can be mis-translated as 'racist' at first-glance. I started dating a Filipina a few months ago, and she seems obsessed with light skin, but I figured there's probably more depth to it, as she doesn't give me the impression that it has anything to do with some prejudice with/against race. Thanks for the insight! your videos have been helping me a lot since I tuned in a month ago.
Pea looks really good with both light and dark skin, it turns out!
I prefer my Peas dark, thank you!
Racism, in my opinion, occurs for 2 chief reasons.
1. The fear of something/ someone different.
2. The wanting to be something/someone different.
Charles the Profound 🤣👍👍
wrong
by far the biggest source of racism is race hustling by "authorities" like the media and the government telling people that one race is "more evil / worse /colonizers etc."
Very well edited script and pacing is ultra professional.
We love you Pea !
Preach it Pea!!!! That was a practically perfect presentation. So brilliantly and diplomatically said. Thank you for enlightening and entertaining us. Bless you
Thanks Robert 👍👍
Morning Pea! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best of mornings to you, Michael 👍❤️
Great Editing as far as the Star Trek scenes. Girl, you are getting bad!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, Ranger 👍❤️
Hi Pea, good evening.
You explained that very well Pea. As a ex military member who has been around the world, I noticed this same history and mindset in Central and South America .
Interesting explanation of light vs dark skin in the Philippines. I had no idea. Thanks Pea.
I get what you are saying about skin color. Colorism is an ugly part of the African American community. As a very dark skinned African American, I experienced some of the rudest/racist behavior in the Philippines. I spent 20 years in the military and have lived in many different countries. I have never been treated anywhere the way I was treated in the Philippines. I had a group of school children near my condo (Soltana Nature Residences) in Lapu, Lapu, yell out the “N” word repeatedly at me. People working at the mall in stores where I was spending money would make all kinds of disrespectful gestures. It happened so often that I didn’t want to go anywhere with my wife and her family. Everyone’s experience is different, but for me, it was a totally unpleasant situation.
Hi
Hi there, Kazi! 😊👍
If you're a Filipina trying to attract a western white guy...take my advice and keep your natural darker skin intact. My Filipina wife looks amazing with a tan!
I lived 5 years with the devil's cousin (my evil ex) and one time our son when he was 7 said, "Dad do you know mom is black?". I knew she was evil but never noticed that she was darker than me. She is Bolivian aboriginal and on many days her skin is as darker than Filipina Pea's legs and on other days she is as white as Filipina Pea. During the old Canadian winters, I was as white as a Scandinavian and when I worked in construction I was darker than a Middle Eastern. to be honest I love tanned women but love black girls as well and I am crazy about white. In bed, I had no preferences. my preferences for Filipinas have more to do with them being kinder,,,,
My preference is a Godly woman, if a woman is the most beautiful but does not know God then she is not my type.
Since a very young age I was seeking women because I felt that was where love was. during my childhood, I believed I was ugly because that was what I heard from home...So I went on a rampage of hunting sex............ in Canada we have all nations living in the same city therefore I likely dated women from every nation however I found God and I do not date however what God leads to is who I will marry.
But I have to admit that all Philipinas that I dated lived in Canada and the only one I was engaged to was from Leyte and before the wedding in Cebu Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu Philippines., I also canceled all the bedroom rentals for the entire family all as she was a professional certified gold digger.
so my dear Filipina Pea, if you are lighter or darker down there you will be pink, and to me if your heart is not washed by the blood of the Lamb it will not have any value.
The Lamb is Yahshua Ha'Mashiach was the Sacrificial Lamb for the atonement of our sins yes Jesus Christ's blood has to be in the doorposts of your heart.
Believe and Trust and you will see Miracles.
Don’t wait for a Miracle for you to believe because you will never see one.
Giving is loving
True Ahava, true love, is more concerned with giving than receiving.
Being the center of someone's attention isn't love. And love isn't about getting some feeling or fix.
Ahava(love) is about giving devotion and time.
Giving is the vehicle of love. Yahweh so loved the world that He GAVE His only Son.
Meaningful relationships have mutual giving. Love may focus on receiving, but Ahava is all about giving.
THE 4 TYPES OF LOVE TRANSLITERATED TO GREEK found in the Bible
In English, the word love is overrated, overused it, and often used in vain without proper meaning or worse without feelings attached to the word LOVE.
Storge - empathy bond. Family love
Philia - friend bond. brotherhood love
Eros - romantic love. sexual love,
Agape - unconditional "Elohim's" love Love from above
Hey Pea, may this comment find you and yours blessed. I hate to tell you this but this debate about "lightness" has been done in America a 100 years ago. My late mother-in-law experienced the middle point of the lightness debate. She was tall, considered extremely well-built physically and highly intelligent. So, even though she was a farmer's daughter--working outside most of the time-her other attributes weighed the scales in her favor.
Even today African Americans try to choose a lighter skinned partner. Filipinas are very open as "breeding" stock. I have studied ethnology (the study of races) and when you interview young women for different segments, I can see ever Asian race across the continent, and even Caucasians (that is Filipinas who could pass for white). I have seen mixes between Westerners and Filipinas that are incredible. The mother may be 4'9" and her daughter might turn out to be 5'7" and the original "Filipino look' can be completely lost and the daughter may look entirely Western.
In the West, especially America/Canada we have the inverse of the PH. We favor darker mates, because if they have the time to become tanned it's a sign of higher financial status. Bravo Pea, you have brought up a very interesting topic.
