Bigot, as defined in dictionary, is someone who is intolerantly convinced of the rightness of a particular opinlon, practice, etc. Like calling another dom 'coz dislikes his style. Either directly or via insinuations or cleverly disguised little farces.
Yes, bigotry. A disease that's still plaguing the Phil.
Eg, marrying a young Pinay. Ok, if he's a puti. Not uncommon for a puti retiree to go to the Phil, marry a young Pinay, and live there permanently.
Once read a Cebu newspaper comment by a visiting puti news editor. Walked along CC cbd 1 early morning for a coffee. Still quiet. Went into a cafe. Saw a puti retiree on a rocking chair. A teenage Pinay was sitting on his lap. Being the only customer and also a puti, they weren't embarrassed and carried on.
Later learned Pinay was puti's wife. Pinay's mom owned the cafe. All lived upstairs.
A common Internet-dating site ad is about retirement living in Phil. Marry a young Pinay. Many looking for foreign nationals to marry. Age is not a problem.
A Pinoy, who'd do something similar, would be called a dom with lecherous inclination.
Needless for me to say more. Look what's happening to me here. A never-ending pissing contest target. And reaching retirement age is still miles away.
Considering further, I'm one of those who packed up their few wordly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life. Sending money home. Helping the Phil perpetually ailing economy.
Is this what we, overseas Pinoys, get in return? Being treated as 2nd class to the puti?
I can't say much about it since I haven't really stayed in the p.i. long enough to find out more about it...........although, I've seen some. seemed like some are still hung-up on social standings/classes. as far as hooking-up with a non-pinoy.........I remember meeting a
few pinays over there who are aspiring to be wives of foreigners. and when I say "foreigners", pinoys who are citizens of another country
does not qualify, which means the guy
cannot be of pinoy descent. but then again, this instance is just a
very very small percentage. the way I see it..............
"to each his/her own"............
"live and let live". same goes with hooking-up with a much older/younger man or much older/younger woman.
if you ask me, I could care less. I seriously don't discriminate based on religious beliefs, culture, color, nationality, age (as long as they're not jail-bait. hehehe.) etc. I've dated a few women who are outside those parameters. as long as I'm attracted (and they are, too), we enjoy each other's company and have fun together, etc.............then, we're good-to-go. it's plainly fair game. who cares about what other people say or think. I'm the one who benefits............ and I certainly wow:o those benefits. hehehe.
