Wow their comments are so Insightful. We mock Americans for being inward looking, sometimes some Asians can be a little like that but Filipinos are so thoughtful about cross cultural integration. Repect Philippines people I absolutely adore you. Bonus I was taught Asian cooking by a Filipino mum of a gorgeous mixed race friend. ❤
Asian Boss, I hope you’d feature more interesting topics about the Philippines, too, and not always stereotypical ones like this and “how much do you earn,” “why do Filipinos have so many babies,” then asking mostly low-income demographics. I just noticed you feature really interesting topics for other countries, yet in the Ph, it feels like your topics are to emphasize how low-life or poor the country is. Don’t you lack researchers for the PH?
Young innocent Indian students are getting ki**ed in USA every other day asian boss. Last month 20 Indian students got ki**ed.this month 5 students got ki**ed.Where is your news about it Asian boss? Why are you not making video about it? Why are you silent? Where is your video about targeted ki**ing of Indian students in America Asian boss? You call yourself asian boss so why are you not standing up for those Indian kids?
I concur. The topics that Asian “Boss” choose to feature about the Philippines have all involved coloured questions that paint a degrading image of the Philippines. Does the fact that the owner of this channel is Korean have anything to do with it? Can’t you think of more interesting questions? Or interview a more diverse demographic in the Philippines instead of interviewing only the low income group? Or would that just not align with the narrative you want to create?
Asian Boss, why are you like this? We've been following this channel for years and it's becoming obvious that you're a victim of your own deeply ingrained racial biases that leave little for meaningful discourse about asian countries aside from South Korea, Japan, and China. Should have just named the channel East Asian Boss if all you do is put east asians in a better light while denigrating the rest of asia. Do better.
I'm a Filipina who married a Japanese guy yet I don't have any financial problems in my family. I'm one of those Filipinos who live in nice subdivisions. Thing is, when I was single, I had bad experiences with dating Filipino men. They didn't take me seriously as I wanted a date to marry route. They just cheated on me or blatantly have no long term plans. I changed the dating field and unexpectedly ended up with a Japanese man just 6yrs older than me. I seriously hate other Filipino men's comment, "nakaahon sa kahirapan" because not all Filipinas who marry are poor. Some just need better men who are serious and loyal with marriage. Insecure lang kayo (karamihan). Kadalasan kayo pa magbubuntis ng babae tapos di nyo pananagutan. That I don't like. Currently, nasa PH kami nakatira. Sa mismong sariling bahay at lupa ko pa. Both of us work and he earns slightly higher than me kasi maraming work experience na siya than me.
Asian Boss always, always, focus on asking the low income sector or poorer sector, like almost in every video they feature about the Philippines. Instead of addressing the stereotypes about Filipinos and Filipino women, I get it that majority of Filipinos are poor but that’s already a given, but still this channel focus on topics about how poor the country is or interviewing the poorer sector hence get the same stereotypical answers. But they post more interesting topics for other Asian countries posted. I just feel like this channel is so biased with east Asian countries and degrading Southeast Asian ones.
I am also a product of Japanese and Filipino couple. Half ako. Pinanganak ako sa Japan. Pero girlfriend ko ngayon ay pure Filipino and we met here. I think dahil din sa social media I would also know if the girl is into money or not, you can just sense that. And luckily, my girlfriend I met here in Japan is not one of them. We both work hard for our future! Don't let those haters get them to you, kasi at the end of the day, nasa sipag talaga para makaahon, hindi sa pag-aasawa ng ibang lahi!
@@mischa6688 The reason why, because in the middle-class or upper, the number of people who are mix-blooded increases. Marami nang Chinese, Spanish, American, European, or Japanese decents. Samantala sa middle-class or lower, mas marami ang nasa pure Filipino lineage.
Yep. I find it telling how they don't mention that middle class and wealthy Filipinas ALSO marry foreign men quite frequently. Including members of my own family, and we're fairly middle class. As if they really want to push the narrative that we're just doing it for the money and desperation. Tapos yung comments puro mga racist na East Asians or self-hating na mga lalaki na hinahayaan lang nila.
Chinese men are marrying a lot of foreigners too because there are now more men in China then women. A lot of Chinese men are marrying Filipino, Laos and Vietnamese women.
In Japan, we say “You don’t marry a Filipina, you end up marrying their family”. It’s always about an escape and there’s always a child left behind which they want to bring over.
@@gewglesux The "Passport Bros" are men who have chosen to seek out foreign women, typically from other countries, for relationships. They believe that western women have been influenced by cultural and societal pressures to behave in a certain way, and that by seeking out foreign women, they can find a more authentic, fulfilling, and harmonious relationship. This is seen as a way to restore the natural balance between masculine and feminine energy, and to avoid the "wickedness" of western women. Source: Urban Dictionary In other words, these are men who got tired of western women being -hoes- degenerates for da streets that they decided to seek love somewhere else. Particularly finding women that are conservative and traditionalist types aka the tradwife.
I used to think they're all gold diggers, but after experiencing it myself I think it's more about safety, security and a brighter future. My father was a Chinese businessman who was kidnapped and murdered when I was a baby and we were left with nothing after he was gone. My mother never remarried and worked really hard to raise her children by herself. She only remarried an Australian guy when i was a teenager and he was not rich, he was middle class, so she didn't marry for money, and now as an adult I understand she made the sacrifice for her kids. When you're living in a hopeless place, what is wrong with seeking a better future for yourself and your kids? It's easy to judge people when you're priviledged and don't know hardship. Also he wasn't a good person, he had anger issues and was mentally abusive to my mom, calling her stupid all the time, but she endured the abuse for her children's future. He did help my mom move my brother and I from the Philippines and I'm grateful that he helped us despite his flaws. I'm very happy to be living in Australia, I think it is one of the best countries to live in, I personally think it's better than USA. My mother also signed a prenup so she never got anything substantial after my stepdad passed away. His grown up kids inherited most of his possessions. And I also built my wealth on my own, I put money into the stock market, I have my own house and my stepdad and mom never gave me any money to give me a leg up growing up. People need to have more empathy for people who want to escape their hopeless situation. If we stayed in the Philippines I don't know if we would've survived.
See it's not about rich, it's more about the stereotypes of rich. It's more about intent, not actually what you end up with. Cuz I agree, most of them don't end up with much, but they certainly thought they would.
Thank you for sharing your story. It made me think and question about many things. I'm happy that you were able to seize the opportunity to build a better life for yourself. (And I definitely agree that Australia is better than the US for many reasons.)
Good for you and your family. I personally do have sympathy for people like your family. Marriage is a contract and if it works and can meet each other's needs, develop feelings for each other, and treat each other with respect, I think it's fine. But it's not good that your stepdad was abusive. You must be a strong person (mentally).
Thanks for sharing Well people shouldn’t judge if they aren’t willing to live out that persons life…. And no nothing women with a Kellen wanting safety and security. And the man wants Secks. Both are adults and if they come to an agreement who cars what they do with their life. Let people live how they want. The judgmental ones are the ones who don’t do anything anyways and just nag others.
@@Mr.Hansome-mt8eh It’s true. Not all Filipinos are attracted to foreigners. There are also rich/middle class/poor Filipinos who work hard and don’t need foreigners to live. This was filmed in a poor area, so of course you’d judge them LOL. Let them go to BGC or Makati, answer would be 100% different.
@@zhang_hua1998 That's just what they say, people often say things that society wants them to say, even if they don't believe it . Their actual preference, only they will truly know deep down inside.
Well, they interviewed low-income people, it’s common sense that the answers would be for “money,” but if they interviewed at least upper middle to well-off ones, they’d get different answers.
sus not all foreigners are rich. marami jan baon sa utang. remember debt culture. Mangyayari nyan, they'll bring the wife abroad and let them work so they can help pay off their mortgages.
As a foreigner (but SE Asian) that travels to Philippines alot, i certainly don't get the fancy perceptions of a foreigner! I cant give any green card, I'm not rich, and bcos I already look like a pinoy guy, I certainly can't give any mixed looking babies 😂
Go to high income or meet richer Filipinos and realize this fancy perception is mostly just among the poor sector. This channel didn’t care to interview middle class, upper middle class, or rich women, the answers would have been different.
@@mischa6688 as someone who is dating in the Philippines right now I've met more scammers in the rich part of the Philippines than I have in poorer areas.
Some kids in the Philippines literally eat food out of the trash to survive, the small things we take for granted in the US, Canada, etc. and complain about they’d literally die for
@@jennyhateseverything I've actually seen that, this kid and his mother were looking for food out of the trash sleeping on the streets. I bought them food and took them in. I have no intention of dating her or being a step dad tho I'm just helping them get on their feet. Sent the mother to college and she's doing everything she can to better herself and take full advantage of the opportunity. Plus she's been a huge help in growing my business here in the Philippines
3:28 I'm curious about how many of the 15,000 foreigners who have married Filipinas did so with the intention of purchasing properties in the Philippines or starting a business there. It's difficult to determine the exact number or conduct a survey on this, but it's definitely a possibility. I doubt that most of these men are extremely wealthy or well-off in their own countries. Perhaps marrying a Filipina is a way for them to have a more comfortable retirement, establish a business, or invest in properties that would be challenging to do in their home country. It would be interesting if the channel could also showcase these foreign nationals and their reasons for marrying Filipinas in a future video.
A lot of Chinese do it and increasingly a lot of Koreans, that's why there are a lot of them here with businesses and establishments. A lot also assimilate into the country though, they're pretty much full blown Filipinos a couple generations in the future, like the owner of Jollibee or Chowking. It's pretty natural, I have no problem with it
@@Beckala67 Foreigners cannot buy land. They can rent it long-term, though. Foreigners can buy condominum units outright as long as total foreign ownership of all units in project do not exceed 40%. Rent of land in rural areas can be very cheap. There are some townhouses titled as condominium units that foreigners can buy. Some use dummies to buy land.
Personally, I'm mixed ethnicity American myself, I've also raised my son on my own, & have never needed anyone's help, but I have no problem with Americans or other Westerners marrying foreign born people, like that one guy said in the video, the mixing of peoples is a beautiful thing. ❤
@@jimf937 Yes, I live in the US. I work full time, I've also gotten a degree in food science, & a certificate in baking & patisserie from culinary school. I also worked in electronics for nearly 10 years, & was in the army national guard. So, no I've never needed anyone to 'take care' of me financially.
Why would you have an issue with it? You're not the one who has to deal with women abandoning you for richer men and leaving you in poverty. Which is not your fault, not everybody's luck is the same, but It's baffling why you think you're the one to speak on having a problem.
@@chriIIemy sympathy with you guys. i really wanna help you but i dont know how. If they did this to you, then there is no reason for you to care about them anymore.
Let’s be real though. The Philippines is a developing country, people want to improve their lives, who wouldn’t when you grow up with so little? The means aren’t there for many of them, the privileges of being born in a developed country aren’t afforded to them. So yes, there will be assumptions made of white people, people coming from developed Asian countries and people who have the finances to travel to the Philippines. Filipina women may see these men as an opportunity to get more out of life, and we live in a world where sex sells, and if a man is willing to offer her what she wants and a shot at improving hers and her family’s situation, it’s easy to understand why she would take the opportunity. I’m not saying it’s morally right, but it does feel like punching down when these women are villainized simply for wanting a better life from what little opportunities they may be presented with.
And these men are actually, mostly, the last resort of women who want to improve their lives. And somebody here made a great point, it’s a two-way thing. Why do foreigners marry women coming from a poorer background? Because they get something from them, sex, control since these women are financially-dependent on them.
I agree with this answer I just hate how a lot of the Filipinas lie about their real reason, no you don’t “love” that old ass man ready to die, you just want to escape, just be honest.
i don't judge them that is my mentally before atleast i can marry foriegner pero nong nag matured na ako nka graduate nka work yun mindset ko ng iba na kumikita na ako ngkapatayo ng bhay duon ko napagtanto kyang mong umahon sa hirap khit papano live simple life that it.

"Of the total registered marriages in 2021, 98.6 percent or 351,869 were between Filipino men and women, and only 1.3 percent or 4,787 were between Filipinos and foreign nationals." 1.3% is "so many"?

@@Janger82 May mga nagrereklamo nga sa isang condo sa Taguig. Medyo aggressive mangulit sa babae yung ibang foreigners dun. Konti lang sa mga kakilala ko open sa sa foreign. Kung may Pinoy, yung pa rin talaga main option.
exactly. the foreigners coming to the philippines arent exactly top tier men... i pity the poor filipinas. theres a reason why in every video like this, the age of the foreigners is always mentioned - they are the losers of their own nations who cannot find women of their own race.
Well, in fairness there are also a lot of old unmarried Korean women. Even if these guys did have a shot , most guys would agree a younger girI from a poor country is a more attractive proposition. So, the rejection really does go both ways.
They don't have shot with them as well but they will tolerate because even poorest man in any western country is considered rich in theirs so that's it you either bring money or genetic (looks) in today's dating world or you are nowhere
I think it's incredibly unfair that many people only look at this one side of the relationship and label these women from the Philippines or Thailand or where have you as nothing but gold diggers or green card-chasers. Sure, perhaps some of them are, but are we really going to pretend that the men that they marry are innocent saints with no ulterior motives of their own? How is the person looking for a better life for herself and her family a worse person than the one who's taking advantage of her circumstances in the hopes of getting a housemaid or S-slave for free? Let me add that I'm sure plenty of these people (on both sides) do indeed marry for love, just like in other international marriages from other countries. I just don't like seeing how women like this are being vilified the way that they are when there are two people in the marriage/relationship.
Somebody mentioned the owner of this channel is a Korean, and imo topics about the PH is from his own narrative, like how poor the PH is whereas topics from other countries are “not as predictable” as this one. I mean, the PH is a poor country, yes, so why ask something that most of the world universally know already? Or at least they could’ve sought other answers by asking diverse group of women or people, not those with predictable answers. And thanks for mentioning most foreigners actually take advantage of Filipino women, and sometimes even use them just to get their trust fund and whatnot then do something to them after, so isn’t that a win-win? There is nothing wrong with being poor and marrying for greener pasture, but what is wrong is this channel kind of painting a bad picture that mostly, if not all Filipino, Thai women, or Southeast Asian women marry just for money, while topics in East Asia are totally different from this.
They look down on their own men and don''t give their own men a chance, even if they work hard and earn a decent salary in that country. That might deserve vilification. The biggest losers in this exchange is really men in poor countries who have no escape route.
@@chriIIeIs it a woman’s fault if she wants to live a life that is more than just decent and relies on every pay day? Many Filipino women now have been earning a lot because of determination and hard work and there is nothing wrong with looking for someone who also earns a similar amount or higher than you who would end up a good provider. And I think it is not isolated for Filipino women. I think any ambitious and strong-willed woman who are fortunate enough to have higher income opportunities would want a good provider husband regardless of race, color, and whatnot.
@@chriIIelooking inferior at someone and having preferences are not the same thing. Filipino women do not look down on men, Filipino men or not. Pls do not define having preferences as same as looking down on men.
Naw it's not bout green cards, lot of pastport bros or expats, don't even want to come back over here to live in the United States, get your facts straight, before making assumptions.
I married a korean not because he is financially stable infact we have the same level of lifestyle but i liked that he pursued me for 4years when no Filipino guy has proved something like that to me. Culture wise could vary but i believe its still how the person was brought up at home and his environment. On the other hand i still sense some people around me thinks the same way when they found out a filipina is marrying a foreigner but i dont give a f. tbh i am happily married To the love of my life and I don't treat him as a foreigner as well He is also just a year older than me. Some of my friends were actually asking if my Visa is on the process or asking me where am I gonna stay for good. I already know what they are curious about. We are living in the Philippines and I'm not even planning to go to Korea anytime soon. I still love to be in my own territory.
Well, maybe because you're not that special to be chasing for 4 yrs. I'm sure you had guys approach you, but to expect 4 yrs of chasing is just not reasonable when realisitically, you're not that special and that's not a personal attac on you, nobody is that special. And also just cuz a Korean guy chased you for 4 yrs, doesn't mean that you're special, it probably means he's just desperate, cuz let's be honest, if another girl gave him a chance in those 4 yrs, it's "cya later" to you.
@@Cxs1a3 i also knew my worth girl and I basically wanted him to prove that he was serious because i also know the stereotypes with Koreans thats why it took him 4 years. Don't let these men make you feel you are not special because certainly we are. Also, i think you got the meaning of desperate wrong 😉
I'm watching this after the news that a Filipino family planned and murdered a Filipino mother and her half-Japanese daughter for money. It was precious money the mother and daughter slowly saved over the years to purchase a house in the Philippines. (The daughter reportedly worked for ANA group in Japan). Once you leave the Philippines, it may be safer to never look back because evidently even your own family members can target you.
You know what’s the connection of your comment? Things like this happen everywhere. You know envious relatives who ask money from you but you reject them, it happens everywhere.
@@mischa6688Happens everywhere, really? They were killed during their sleep and dumped by their own Filipino family members for their money while visiting the Philippines. If you think this is normal behavior, we must really live in different worlds. Obviously, the connection is the daughter was half-Filipino and half-Japanese raised in Japan. It's just beyond belief that the aunt will plan for months to kill her sister and niece for money.
Some people say because women want to get out of poverty. But not all foreigners are well off or rich. Minsan mas successful pa nga financially ang mga Pinay compared sa asawa nila. So u cannot generalize.
This channel always interviews the low income sector. Common sense they’d get the same answers. Lol. Instead na magspread ng awareness na hindi lahat ng Pinay gold-digger or habol lang is pera, naka-add pa lalo sa stereotype.
@@mischa6688 so true. to be honest, who needs a foreign guy if you can easily get alomg with the Pinoys? Not saying that falling in love with foreigner is wrong, but honestly if you're comfortable in life, they're just an option.
@@pidgy_poofoomidk but if you will check the topics about Ph on this channel, may pattern sila na parang degrading yung topics about Philippines. lol. Like come on, wala na ba kayong maresearch na interesting aside from focusing that the PH is poor or women are gold-diggers and whatnot. Also, what’s the point if you will interview just one sector? Of course you’ll get the same answers when in fact, Filipino women are so diversed now, there are a lot of independent, upper-middle class Filipino women who tend to be earning higher than most Filipino men, thus making them seem intimidating for Filipino men. I could go on and on with a lot of reasons, but this channel and comment section like to focus on stereotyping.
So much racism and misconceptions in the comments, I doubt many of them even watched the video. A lot of it borne from their own cultural lenses that view women as just wives. First off, the Philippines is THE most gender equal country in Asia. Higher than developed Asian countries like South Korea or Japan, higher even than first world western countries like the US. We have the highest number of women in senior management positions, top 10 in terms of the highest number of female CEOs, and we've had two female presidents. The simple fact that women here are treated far more equally is the exact reason why they can choose to marry a foreigner with no social repercussions. Filipinas marry foreigners because they CAN. Whereas in your countries, doing so would be viewed with derision or shame. It's a reflection of your own cultural biases that you laugh at us. 1. Filipina women genuinely find most foreigners attractive. The same reason that someone might find a Filipina beautiful, is the same reason Filipinas might find foreign men attractive. The same is true for Filipino men and foreign women, as well as for Filipino LGBT people and foreign LGBT people. Our beauty standards tend to go for the different, rather than the similar. We universally find mixed people beautiful, it's why a large number of our celebrities are mixed, far more than most other countries. See 11:16 2. Financial security. It's funny how people find this weird, when the vast majority of people also marry for this reason. The Philippines is a developing country. If a man can provide a better life, he'll always have an advantage over someone who can't. Practicality. It's PART of the reason, but not THE reason. See 10:14 3. The trade-off is the cultural differences. As I've already mentioned, Filipina women are used to being equal. We are family-oriented which a lot of foreigners mistake as being submissive. We're not. And a huge fear into entering mixed marriages is that they might end up being mistreated. See 7:17 and 8:05 There are exceptions of course. And they're obvious. Mostly when the age and attractiveness gap is wide. But that happens in any country.
"There are exceptions of course. And they're obvious. Mostly when the age and attractiveness gap is wide. But that happens in any country." Yes it does, but seemingly far more common with Filipinas. I wonder why.
And yet the passport bros come here to seek our women here because most of the foreign men are Catholics, have ability to speak English and very family-oriented, who doesn't want to have that?
@@kzm-cb5mr And yet a lot of them survive and thrive as families in the long run. Kinda puts a spanner on your stereotype that they're only marrying for money, doesn't it? Hence exceptions. I've seen couples with almost 30 year gaps who are happily married. Instead of sneering at that, sneer instead at the countries where the MEN actively buy brides from other countries, and then in most cases, mistreat them. THAT is very prevalent in other Asian countries. Yet get much lesser attention.
I have zero issues with Filipinas marrying foreigners. Sometimes it ends well, other times it doesn't. Instead I feel like there are other issues that are more important like the fact that divorce is not recognized in the Philippines, or that Abortion is illegal, or that sex education in the Philippines is abysmal.
@@life_is_a_myth what about that is “American wokeness?” The right to divorce someone, the right to bodily autonomy, the ability to be educated about sex? This isn’t selecting pronouns, in many developed countries, these are basic human rights and education. If the Philippines wants to progress, we should be developing, not staying the way we always have been.
Why would you have an issue? Unless you're South-East As;an men who have their women "stolen", while they have basically 0 chance of marrying women from richer countries, I mean even other poor South-East As;an countries won't give them a chance.
@@life_is_a_myth A consequence is putting too much sugar in your coffee and now you can't sleep or stealing something and getting arrested for it. It's not condemning yourself to abuse for the rest of your life because you married the wrong person. It's not forcing your body to take a baby to term even though you were raped. It's not being ignorant because a system believes that not educating you on sex is the only way to prevent it.
@@Linoxism It actually is western culture. As;a is a conformist society where you are expected to conform to the marriage and the family, even if you don't like it, whereas in western culture, people are encouraged to find a marriage that conforms to them. So, As;an women abandoning As;an culture and their role for their own selfish interests, is actually a very culturally western thing to do.
I’ve said this in a comment before and I’ll say it again. PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE AMERICAN DREAM. The American dream is nonexistent anymore. I was a tourist there for a month and everything shocked me. From stinky ass bathrooms, violent homeless people on crack, and people labeling themselves whatever because they have 100+ gender identities, etc. It is the most unsafe country I’ve visited, and I’ve visited over 16 countries. Not all Americans are rich, a lot are struggling and broke. It’s not like the movies you watch and you’re not automatically rich once you land in America. A lot of Americans don’t even have passports and aren’t well-traveled because they can’t afford it. Please don’t be blinded.
Show me a country where there's no drug addicts, scammers, homeless people, filthy bathrooms, just make the best of the USA, we are not a perfect country but why everyone wants to come to the USA? Reason, opportunity you just don't sit on your butt and expect a silver platter you have to work or go hungry, many jobs available but some people are just lazy.
@@eddieBoxer People wanting to come isn't an accurate indication of the actual situation. It's an indication of the image that's been marketed. What the actual citizens have to say is the more appropriate thing to look at.
@@eddieBoxer That’s the thing, the US is highly-idealized. Yes, people earn more. But with the high living cost in America, does earning big compared to other countries guarantee that you’ll be rich in the US? The US thinks the world revolves around them and that you’re automatically unsuccessful or poor if you’re not from the US.
@@eddieBoxer the fact that you’re also calling people lazy for not being rich or successful reeks of privilege. a lot of people work from 9-5 or even work for hours in the US but don’t get rich.
You're very smart. I have an American boyfriend and I've never been to America but I don't want to live there. My bf and I prefer to live in the Philippines. He likes the easier, more relaxed life here. I choose to live here because I don't have to work. He's not rich. If we move to the USA, I understand I may have to work in order to help pay the bills. We both have Master's degrees. I earned my master's degree from Japan and he from an Ivy league uni in the US. I told him that if he didn't have a master's degree, I wouldn't have agreed to be in a relationship with him because I don't want to be more "educated" than my man, if that makes sense, lol... We both are not using our Master's degrees to earn our living cos we prefer the bohemian lifestyle. 😊
This was intresting. I’m married to a Thai woman. We met here in Europe where we live now. She had been here already for a couple of years when we met. She had a relative here who she visited and then stayed on here to work. I’m not a rich guy, but not poor either. She is a hard worker and does not want to sit home and not contribute to the family. So we help and support each other as needed. She does have some friends here and back home who got married for other reasons. Financial reasons and the dream of a better life. We seenaround us relationships that are more of an agreement of convenience rather than a relationship of love or romance. Main thing is treating each other right regardless of the agreement you have with each other. Sadly that isn’t always the case and we know of both women who moved here only to find that priccharming was anything but that and mistreated them. On the other hand men being completely ripped off by gold diggers also happens. And then there are those who actually managed to meet irl or online and live up to the expectations which are the success ones. We have been married for 9 years now and take good care of each other and our kid. Stories seem similar all around south east Asia
Philippines is a classist society. The rich/middle class Filipinos tend not to date below a certain line. This line is delineated by income, family, and education. People stay in their social circles. College graduates usually date and marry other college graduates. Professionals date and marry professionals. Poor Filipinos have only a few options to move up. Education, business, sports, entertainment, go abroad, or marry a foreigner, or a combination. Other than marrying a foreigner, the other options require hard work and/or talent. The Filipinas that actively look for foreign men are usually of this class. These are the ones you usually see that are young with the old retirees. Now, I'm saying this generally. Rich/middle class Filipinas are open to foreigners but not actively looking for them. There has to be a natural real connection there, real attraction. They are not desperate to escape poverty. Their families are fairly well off. My foreign uncles are the same age their wives and they never get asked for money. Rich/middle class Filipinas, from what I've been told, actually avoid foreign men. The young guys tend to be f boys just looking for a good time, not serious. They don't want the retirees because other people will look at them as lower class. This is not to bash the Filipinas that go for foreigners as from the lower class. Its is a natural prerogative for each of us to provide for ourselves and our families the best we can. I myself am married to a non-Filipina. It was out of real attraction, emotional connection, compatibility, and commitment. Many in my family who marry non-Filipinos are the same, we are fortunate that finances are not a main consideration for choosing a partner for life.
I am Filipino, but born in different country. I absolutely despise how superficial it is. Now I sense crappy passport bros who do not want to compromise and are all about them.
Doesn't really matter which country, South-East Asian women are all the same no matter what country they're in, they all look down on their own men, even when their own men make more money than white men , which they do in North America (on average).
@@chriIIe don’t talk about stuff you don’t know. A lot of Filipino men are lazy, alcoholic, and they go around cheating. You’d be surprised that majority of the breadwinners here are women. Filipino men spend so much time playing video games and drinking alcohol with their friends. I have two Filipino uncles who rely on their wives because they’re unemployed and lazy. All my Filipino uncles are lazy, while my Filipino aunts are hardworking for the sake of their kids.
@@chriIIe pffft nice story but white men are in the bottom in singapore and brunei; south east asian country mostly are poor but when rich men arrive white men cant compete with them
1. Money 2. Na heartbroken sa pinoy 3. Sawa na sa pinas 4. Sa sobrang hirap 5. Preference lang Ito talaga napansin ko halos sa lahat ng nakipala ko na nag asawa ng alien

I'm Romanian and married in January 2022 to a Filipina. We got married 6 months after we've met and we love each other more with each passing day, however our relationship was FAR from normal: we've met during the pandemic, never met before marriage and we married online (reported our marriage afterwards), needless to say that was only the beginning...but hey it worked out and when we get old we have a hell of a story to tell, in fact on our 1st anniversary that's exactly what we did: made a sweet private video together saying our story to our future kids.
South east asian patriarchy is different and difficult then western patriarchy. Serving husband and children is easier then obeying and serving husband and his parents and siblings. Western cooking and cleaning is comparatively easier than eastern world. So even rich girls try to escape patriarchy.
Because Western are wealthy they don't need to work. They can afford maids and butlers. Whereas southeast Asians Women and black African women have to work.

Outside of Americans, marrying a foreigner doesn't make it easy for a Filipina to move to their new husband's country. For Brits the process is so long and the financial requirements are so tough its easier to stay in the Philippines or just move to a third country. For Canadians this process can take over a year if its even approved.
aside from that more and more Filipinas are choosing to stay in the Philippines due to the current situation in the West. They are in a downfall, while generally the Asian nations are booming. It does not make sense.
My cousin married an older lady from the Philippines, at first we thought it might be a money thing, especially as she couldn't even speak english well but not once we saw her. They met while they were both working in Hong Kong and actually planned to move to the Phillipines so it wasn't for a green card. They are still together decades later with a son. She worked to send money home to her family. He did make good money but not rich by any means. .
@@jeromeevangelista7421 Some of her friends are married to dutch men too, I think it's more about the man. For instance the ones going there to get a younger pretty housekeeping wife are usually not very attractive and basically not a good catch at home. But a younger man who treats his wife well can have a normal relationship. We knew from looking at my cousin's wife that she wasn't using looks to get a western man, she was neither young nor prettier than other women he could get if he wanted. But they did seem to get attached for other reasons. The family welcomed her too so that helps. I don't think the women want to be divorced unless they are really just in it for a green card or money.
sad but true 😔 heard that theyre extremely, _extremely_ controlling and overly jealous, sometimes even abusive. obligatory clarification of "not all of them" of course.
I’ve dated a White American, a Haitian, a Puerto Rican, a Japanese, a Mexican-American, and currently dating Korean man. The worst one was the Mexican-American. Second worst was the Puerto Rican. My Korean man is the sweetest. People who generalize Korean men are idiots (often racists) who refuse to understand that there are good and bad men in every country/ethnicity.
I had a Filipino housemate. Dates only and only white men. Didnt have a good experience with her. She was cunning and manipulative. Even her relationships felt like that to me. Very eager to be with white people. Didn't know Filipino women usually go for foreigners. Just saw this video and realised this about her.
this is obviously hype perpetrated by western losers... Western women are more likely to marry outside her culture than a filipina...only 4-7 % yearly are interracial marriages in the philippines, while the west is 10% western women according to pew research
Because Western are wealthy they don't need to work. They can afford maids and butlers. Whereas southeast Asians Women and black African women have to work.
Or maybe exploitation? Because a lot of them are naive+poverty and are desperate for anything its legit sad even though filipinos are some of the nicest people on earth
@@awellculturedmanofanime1246 a lot of them stay married for years. most filipinos who marry old foreigners aren’t even attractive. most of the filipinos who marry old foreigners are maids looking for love. Filipinos are conservative and family-oriented. They take marriage seriously that’s why they are valued by foreigners. Not to mention, they’re natural caretakers.
Hey, instead of marrying a foreigner to escape your country, it would be awesome if you filipinos and filipinas worked together to make your country worth staying at. Protest, vote, unionize, demand for change and force your system to make things better. You all deserve the very best for yourselves and country so take it!
It’s easier said than done though, the protesting for change lol. Have you heard about red-tagging or murder-for-hire stuff here? There are a lot of people who had been murdered for resisting about a piece of land/nature, mining, corruption, etc. It’s a normal thing here, even during the elections. Lol
Trust me, we do. The issue here is corrupt politicians and brainwashed Filipinos. When there was an election, a lot of educated Filipinos tried to protest and also educate those in the lower class about good election candidates. However, since education is a privilege, not all are well-informed/educated when it comes to history or politics. Politicians bribe Filipinos from the lower class to win. They are greedy. Filipinos aren’t the problem, it’s the people handling and manipulating it. So many bright Filipinos choose to live abroad because they feel that it’s helpless.
@@user-c3jdf9lylzsenot to mention murder-for-hire and redtagging are so prevalent in poorer countries, like PH and Latin America. People are willing to kill for what $100 or less and it’s a “job” for them. So many environmental and political protesters, even innocent civilians just doing their everyday thing have been killed for the last five decades or so. This guy doesn’t even know how normal election-related deaths are here for decades. Everything is easier said behind a keyboard/keypad.
It's not easy to escape from centuries of mismanagement. Taiwan and Korea were under Japanese administration for two generations and received influences from Japanese education, law, accounting, policy, infrastructure, culture, and government apparatus. There was even one Imperial University each created in both Taiwan and Korea, which offered the same higher-education as the 7 Imperial Universities in Japan mainland. They eventually used that knowledge-base to develop economically. The Philippines got Spain and the US instead who weren't that interested in Filipino economic and human development, much like the colonies in Central and South America. Filipinos are hard-working and smart people, so if they can align their policy properties, they can easily be like Taiwan or South Korea.
Lmfaoo! I actually cackled too, but it is true. Some Filipinos love White people. Hence why almost every Ms Philippines candidates in Ms Universe are half white. Sayin’ this as a wasian with a Chinoy Dad and Italian Mom lol.
not really. Money can't buy all. Try it for yourself, offer yourself with some money to the locals, they will report you to the police for being pervert,
I actually disagree, it's a lot more pronounced in Asian cultured countries. Even in poor South-American countries, there are many poor guys that get hot girls just with just game. Even in rich western countries, a lot of girls prefer going for guys with game, rather than rich guys. But in Asia, game is almost worthless, different culture.
@@chriIIe Game works until you hit your mid 30s as a man. Try living in an apartment in your 40's as a man. Game is worthless at that point when the woman sees you can not even afford a house. Game over. As woman get older, they care less about your game and more about your financial situation.
@@garrydye2394In western cultures, game works at any age. Of course, not saying all women, but generally speaking, you can find at least a few wite girls of all ages that are ok with settling for game, even if you're broke. In Asia, game is almost worthless to women starting late 20s.
Regarding the "gold digger" stuff, I can say that money absolutely makes a difference. Women will go for those with more money most of the time, and why wouldn't they? Money is one of the biggest privileges we have in society, so if you have more money there is also more security. I think it makes sense. As long as there is love involved as well, I don't see any problem with it.
@@quattrobajeena8623 Why would it be? At the end of the day it's about survival. Besides, you should blame the women if you dislike it, not me. I'm not the one doing it.
My wife is Filipino. I am American. I took an interest in learning her culture and the language. We teach each other. Her English is very good. She is coming to be with me in the US until I am out of the army and then we are moving back to the Philippines to have our family. I want to raise our children in the Philippines. I do not want her to lose her culture. I had no problem attracting American women, but they are not suitable to be wives and mothers. My wife is very traditional and Christian. She saved herself for marriage. It is not about money because I don't have any money to give. I am very patient and gentle with her. I know her emotions and her feelings. I know how to make her happy. I give her lots of attention and flowers and food to make her happy. All things that only require me to be a caring man and not money. Foreigners are not rich. In our own country, we are average at best. The only difference is the exchange rate and it is more affordable for us in the Philippines.
Does she treat u with gifts too bro? Because we have always done this as men me not so much, but what is it that they do for us is well? I would feel like I am not loved if she weren’t testing me is well
The Filipino society is very judgemental when it comes to these relationships. There is this decades old joke that roughly translates to "long live our fellow countrywoman, who finally rose from poverty" when someone is seen dating a white foreign man. But as with all things, we should not generalize. I have friends who are more accomplished academically than their foreign partners. They have Postgraduate academic titles with high impact published papers and they are hapilly settled to a 9-5 office chad from a small town in UK.
Because they interviewed people from lower income, therefore you’d get the same answers. But if they efforted and at least talked to more independent, with higher-income to wealthy Filipino women, then they’d get a lot of different reasons. Instead of clearing some stereotype, or looking for other answers rather than typical answers from the poor, lower class, no, they’re okay with the universal answer which has always been the answer and is not surprising.
@@mischa6688Magaling ka lang mag judge ng mga tao na sa tingin mong mahihirap pero ikaw mismo di marunong tumapos ng video. Ayaw mo lang din tanggapin na importante ang pera. Kahit Pilipino-Pilipino na relasyon iniisip din pera at paano bubuhayin kayo at mga anak niyo (kung gusto niyo magkaanak). Konti nga lang Pilipino nagpapakasal sa foreigner eh. Pero kung foreigner ka tapos pumunta ka dito, kung di ka estudyante edi most likely mayaman ka nga. Sino ba hindi gusto pumatol sa mayaman na pwede mong mahalin? Kung lahat ng factors ay fixed value tapos yung nagiiba lang ay pera, pupunta ka dun sa mas may pera o basta kung saan may mas angat, diba? Minsan Pilipino, minsan foreigner.

It's interesting how the Filipino language featured here incorporates these American English words and phrases, pronounced exactly like an American would a lot of the time
As my mother said.. Money is the most important thing in everyone's life... Its a survival means... You cant have a house, clothes and food if you don't have money.. she neve believe that Love can make us feel alive...and she would say"what can love do??..can it feed you?..can it give you a house?? Can it give tou the stable life and survival to live?... Money does that if there is no money problem occur, couples fight...couples argue... Children starve and they will complain... Love will be ignored... She would tell me when I marry..marry someone that is financially stable... Foreigner is the less person I wanna marry..but it can be possible if like I'm available and The guy is also Financially stable..right now I am guiding my current BF to find a job..yes As A woman I am the one helping my bf to find a job and also because this is the order of my mother... Will i ever want to go to the USA or other countries to live there...nope... Especially USA..been seeing a lot of chaos there so I'd rather not live in a chaotic and dangerous country 😆😆

Some of us also grow up very Westernized. My friends and I share a lot of commonalities with Fil-Ams, even though we grew up here in the Philippines. Our perspectives and values have become a lot more easily compatible with other cultures, so it's not a big deal for us to date foreigners (and somewhat more difficult to date Filipinos, too). It hurt a lot when my partner (at the time) said his dad was worried about our relationships because "Filipina women are always just out for citizenship or money"; I understood why he felt that way and that the stereotype exists for a reason. But that's also why I refused any presents or offers to pay for things that my ex initiated himself. I didn't need his money and his citizenship, and still don't.
What's funny or unbelievable about that? I didn't even speak Filipino until I was 10 or 11. I didn't attend church, fiestas, or other experiences many other Filipinos have. When I entered college, I was mocked for my accent when speaking Filipino cause it sounded "white" according to my classmates. @@gerplay2135
So this was told to me by my friend, a lady from Philippines. Firstly a lot of middle class parents tell their kids to become nurses because it's very easy to get a job in western countries due to high demand, so, escape your own country. Secondly, once one person is dating and married to a foreigner she will do her utmost to get the girls in the family to be introduced to foreigner men in her husbands circles so that they can also escape Philippines. Apparently it's harder being a woman in Philippines. BTW they are great women and generally look after their families a lot. Western men probably prefer them because they are not as woke as women in their country and can look after a family well. Philippinos usually are family orientated and want to have lots of kids. I completely understand that not everyone is the same and I am. Only talking from my own experience.
"Woke"🤣 , we American women (not all of us btw) won't take 💩, we can work, go to school, & take care of ourselves without a partner to 'help' us. Personally, I'm mixed myself, I've also raised my son on my own, & have never needed anyone's help, but I have no problem with Americans or other Westerners marrying foreign born people, like that one guy said in the video, the mixing of peoples is a beautiful thing. ❤
they are not as woke....... LOLOLOLOLOLOL what kinda BS are you cookin up 🤣. On a serious note this equals "I want my women to do everything for me cause I am a lazy bum who wants to sit and watch tv all day with a beer in each hand"
@@1jediwitch by woke they mean they’re smart enough to notice abuse compared to Asian women who grow up in heavily misogynistic countries which tell you to “shut up smile and provide.” I still am traumatized by seeing my American father abuse my Filipino mother. It’s the perfect situation for narcissistic men to get a young girl who doesn’t know about the world and isolate her from her friends and family with the promise of a better life. Notice how the men are always 60+ years old and the girls sometimes are freshly out of Highschool.
Let's not generalize and say EVERY Filipina want the same thing. I was raised to be financially independent and was taught to NEVER depend on anyone but yourself. I didn't marry a foreigner to have a better life. THAT is not the solution to your problems. ALSO, I've met rich Filipinos who marry foreigners but aren't relying on them to support their families. This is not the norm here.
Nah but the end game is that marrying someone outside the Philippines gives the option to leave and not deal with the country's issues. I can't blame them. Having no choice feels like you have no room to grow. More trying is ask how many Filipinos were prefer to move abroad than live here with our current issues and youll find the real number.
@@AndresNostoslast year 170+ foreigner they try to enter the Philippines but get denied because they have criminal records and majority of them are pedo.
Sad reality, there's actually Filipinos that give their foreign partner the responsibility to help their family. I used to play this mobile game and my team mates were expats that married Filipina, and most of their complains is they are the one providing money to their wife's siblings. But of course, not all stories are like this. There are also Filipinos that don't depend financially on their foreign partners.
marrying white people is more common in the countryside. people in the city are richer and very few of them like mestizos (white) preferences would be moreno (tanned skin filipino) or chinito (chinese)
@@aditinandanghosh8134 what exactly does that imply? there are admittedly filipinos who marry foreigners to escape from poverty, but they are looked down upon here in the Philippines. most of the tourists visit beaches, and those are rural parts in the PH where poverty is more extreme.
I once sat down with two guys who were proud of telling me they were cheating on their gfs, very actively trying to hook up. A year later or so, I found out the dude married the girl. That was so messed up. Most Pinays hate dating local guys because they are 1) unfaithful and 2) don't grow up. It's no coincidence that PH startup system is full of female startup founders. I know a guy, he still lives with his mom at 31, he still takes no responsibility, and never works hard. Very common in PH. As a woman you're going to go with a man who's mature enough to live abroad, manages that well, and has a stable job vs a 30 year old Pinoy who still lives in mama's basement. Anecdotal joke lang, I know, basements aren't very common in PH lol
do you even know the actual statistics of interracial marriages in the philippines??...stop your delulu...you are only getting the leftovers.... the best women still goes to filipino men... i can even challenge you today to go to any mall, and We can easily find a filipina holding hands with local men and the vast majority of babies are pure filipino....LOL...
A lot of them are from poor families and are looking for a better life elsewhere. You can’t blame them for that. Some are even very honest about the fact they’re looking for financial support. Which I admire honesty. Better than hearing people say they’re looking for love and instead they’re simply looking for the most attractive or richest person they can find. Just be honest with what you’re looking for
First, why do Asian Boss always feature kind of belittling topics about the Philippines, like about this or “how much do Filipinos make,” “why do Filipinos have so many babies,” and interview mostly low-income class employees but you do more interesting topics about other countries? Are you lacking researchers in the Philippines? Lol And regarding this topic, this is the problem when you only interview a certain demographic. Of course, low incomers would state just one point, “for money.” “Gold-digging” or marrying foreigners for money applies mostly to low to middle income class Filipino, but if you will ask upper middle class to elites, it’s more of they meet foreigners on a daily basis from their networks from international schools or actually attending unis overseas particularly US, Europe, Australia, etc. Also, it’s hard to find ambitious Filipino men on a daily basis, like those who are striving to earn more to be able to provide a better lifestyle for themselves and their families. A lot of Filipino men get too complacent with their job and are okay with “just okay” jobs as long as they can provide the basic needs, and I guess Filipino women nowadays have become more and more independent and it’s difficult to find someone who would match their being goal-oriented, don’t want to settle for less and whatnot. Whereas poor to middle-income classes in foreign countries could be upper-middle to upper class already if they are in the Philippines due to income gaps between Filipinos and richer countries.
what planet you come from??... only 4% are interracial marriage in philippines...this vloggers just hype it, to make it appear that filipinas are thirsty for foreigners...
Your comment is far more hostile towards Filipino men than this channel is towards the Philippines Frankly, it is pathetic how slavish and self-degrading Thais, Filipinas etc are towards foreigners...and how hostile they are to their own race
just remember, locals also regard fil-ams as foreigners. my ex, when i went to uni in the Philippines, was stereotyped for the same reasons mentioned in the video. regardless of me knowing the culture, language, etc. i was still considered a foreigner
@@etas1c nah, if there were levels, they'd call me fil-am; to at least acknowledge that i'm already speaking in Tagalog to them, but it doesn't matter, Tagalog or English. cause as long as you're not born in the Philippines, you're never filipino enough. so in the end, i'm just a foreigner.
There's levels to being foreign, not all foreign is equally foreign. Nobody is assuming you're rich just by looking at you, whereas a wite guy, for eaxmple, is automatically assumed to be rich cuz he's wite.
@@jrdatz Nobody looks at you and goes "Oh, look an American", sure when you open your mouth, maybe, but the point is nobody is automatically assuming just by looking at you, that you come from a rich country. Whereas a wite person , from 100 meters away , they will automatically assume is rich. Whereas you have to close the distance, and chat with them for awhile, before such assumptions are applied to you. The difference is you can't chat to everyone, that wite person will look wite to everyone. Therefore, for him it's much more universal that society assumes he is rich, whereas for you, it's not universal at all.
I married my Jamaican husband coz I find him loyal and sincere... I had relationship with Filipinos but they cheated that is why I loose my sense of interest dating my country men. Dating a foreigner whether American or Indian also can't guarantee a good life. I've dated a stingy men american and indian where he wants you to be independent and a working woman so in my opinion not all foreigner has money mostly are debts.
Actually thier a lot of filo men dating and married to foreign girls but most of them is low-key the girls just got a lot of attention because when filipina girls got a foreign boyfriend they staring to make a vlog😂
This is true - I remember growing up and being disgusted at how much Asian women would brag about being with non-Asian men, while attacking their own race. How can people say Asian women are "family-orientated", when they will constantly attack their own race, family and kids compared to other races?
It's not a lot, it's actually very few, no girl in a foreign country, even poor countries ever said "I really wanna date a pilipino man". That's not to say it doesn't happen, but the point is nobody''s really dreaming about it.
And most of my Filo friend I know dating Ukraine and Aussie girl my few but I see a lot of them mostly in foreign countries.that because you don't see them often in social media.😁
The copium coming from you is insane, be real with yourself dude, most of them are not giving most of you a chance. Rare exceptions will always exist, but they're nothing more than rare exceptions.
As an Indian money is not a big deal for us but i have to admit we have indian wife priority.. bcz indian girls know how to deal with family problems even in the worst situations
Not all Filiapinos are kind and caring. I'm from England and got into a relationship with a Filipina when I was an English teacher in Japan. Her and her family were the most evil people I ever met. Put me through hell. After the fact a lot of people told me Filiapinas are like that. I wish someone told me that before it happened.
Duh, none of us would want to be in a poverty line, did you know many of us wanting to have access to education up until college to have a job? You telling this in a comment section is just icing on the cake, you don't understand our situation at all.
@ilovekeiy they are exceptional and chosen one. There are huge gaps between decent and indecent people in countries when there is no progress education system.
Don’t generalize Filipinos and Not all foreigners are rich. Don’t forget that. I dated my husband for 6 years and I married him when he had nothing. If you think it is not Love, then what is it?
@@zhang_hua1998 it's coming from a foreigner. Even though your country is a strict Christian country you are famous for being one of the most adultery practicing society, most pinay women don't hesitate to spread the leg for 60 year old man as long as he has money.
I HAD to watch this as my 'tita' (tagalog for 'aunt') married into our family just a few years ago from the Philippines to the USA here. She is a wonderful, sweet lady. She works two jobs, and cooks delicious meals. But my uncle (her husband) is a real lout. He clearly loves her and has steady employment, but has no wealth to speak of. And again, he's just a bad person.
Hopefully the next video is made from that perspective - I'm sure it would open a lot of eyes and minds to just why foreigners are looking for Filipinas
Because they're too old to find a lady in there country so they venture to a 3rd world poverty country where the hungry Filipina lady is waiting, when you exist the plane you automatically become rich and handsome.
Interesting video for sure. My family immigrated to Canada from Pinas when I was 8. Im 23 now and my boyfriend is a "foreigner" as what the ates, kuyas, tito and tita would say in this video. Context is always important especially for this video because it's not black and white--me and my bf are around the same age and i definitely did not start dating him for the money. we just happened to connect really well, share the same values and morals, etc. for the ate that said she wouldnt date a foreigner bc she heard stories from her friends about how they hurt them, i understand but that is why you should take this video with a grain of salt--thats her opinion, it's not a fact. tito and tita in the end made some valid points, i respect that. they looked more on the optimistic side and the overall picture of the topic.
you are in Canada where western media dominate , so probably brain washed by western men as the savior and main characters... if you go here in philippines, where kpop and filipino pop culture dominate, the rest of women choose filipino men and Asian men.... in fact passport bro is just a hype.... only 4% are interracial marriage in philippines....
Imagine you have sons in the future - how would you explain to them that Asian women attack/betray Asian men as being racially/genetically/sexually inferior compared to other races BILLIONS of times?
I hope Asian Boss tries considering doing interviews in more progressive districs/cities such as BGC, Eastwood or Makati to get a broader perspective from other Filipinos.
@@engesyada2793 what even are the benefits of getting a green card?? American dream is dead. If I were a poor person and wanted to migrate, I wouldn’t choose the US. Americans think their country is the greatest when it’s just a country with 100+ gender identities, gun violence, and homeless people on crack. I spent a month in the US as a tourist and was shocked to see how ghetto the US is. The misconception that people living in 1st world countries are rich and that all people living in 3rd world are poor is absurd. Some Filipinos are richer than these so-called westerners.
@@krishyyfan5153 That doesn't change the fact that women from rich countries are not coming to South-East As'a for men, especially not the poor countries, which is a majority of Sout-East As'a.
Lol, I was an exchange student in a university in The Netherlands, and I met my boyfriend there. He’s Scandinavian. I have found a job here in Europe on my own, and I did need anyone to vouch for me to be here. Moreover, my family back in PH did not need any monetary support as both of my parents are working and all of my siblings are professionals and have their own sources of income. I think the connotation about Filipinas having foreigner partners go on because the new generation still pick it up from the traditional perspective and incorporate it to double sided jokes, memes, and don’t think cognitively about diverse circumstances of what could be the other reasons why many Filipinas choose to be with a foreigner rather than a Filipino.
Why promote the idea that your own race, family and if you ever have them - future kids - are racially, genetically and sexually inferior to other races?
Pray you don't ever have a son, cuz if you do, then the way you saw your own men, is gonna be how European women and even his own race see him. Even if it's half, it's essentially full in Europe.
Salute to all Pinays who chose their own countrymen. It’s better to stay at your own culture. Marry someone you can call home and where your dignity won’t be tarnished.
The reason philippine women are popular is I think because unlike western, Chinese and Japanese women under feminism, philippine women are good-natured and have traditional values and it seems attractive to the foreigners.
No. It is because they very easy to get like the easieat ans cheapest women in the world, that's why men who can not get woman in their own country flock to the philipine to get woman, thus give exposure to filipino woman
The lady saying accepting Indian culture is what she is looking for, ask if the Indian guy is even ready to accept the Filipino culture and be in phillipines , he’ll say no, put the weapons down, stop the stupidity, there should be cultural acceptance not dominance
Girls, be smart! Date and marry the person who treats you best AND can provide for you! Don't marry just for "love" or for looks. You will regret it! If a foreigner treats you best go for it. It doesn't matter what people around you say. Don't wait until you marry someone who treats you badly then leaves you and your kids before you date the right person. Make the right decision from the beginning!
let's not generalized philippine women as a gold digger or who's looking for green card when dating or marrying a foreigner, I'm in a well off family & I'm dating a foreigner. My friend is half filipina and half korean, her mother is filipina who's wealthy here in the philippines.
this is same for all asian women in asia, if they are well off, they will marry fellow ethnic men. chinese to chinese filipino to filipino thai to thai unfortunately reality is tough so many choose to marry white man to escape poverty
This is not really a new trend, so it would be great if it could be put into context. You say there was 15,000 foreign marriages registered in the Philippine's last year, which seems to be about
Yes. It's a drop in the bucket. An overwhelming majority of Filipinas go for locals although some of them are really attracted to foreigners and open to relationships with them. Filipinas have options. Mixed marriages have been happening for decades. It's not new. These are getting more attention nowadays because of the Passport Bro hype. It does not help that western women vloggers are also mentioning Filipinas when they try to shame and denigrate Passport Bros.
@@daxdizon4591and this western passport bro became hype at the time when Asian pop culture is dominating the country... A filipina would rather date a filipino or korean than a western man... this is the funny part
I think because many Filipina can speak English, foreigner can talk to them easily and build relationship. Language is the first thing that connect people. I noticed that among Southeast Asians, Filipinos are the most fluent in English along with Singaporean
💰 MONEY, VISA AND MANY TO MENTION. THATS FINE TO MARRY A FOREIGNERS WHATS NOT FINE IS MOST RELATIONSHIP ENDED FAILED AND THE FOREIGNER LIVING IN THE STREET ABANDONED BY ITS PARTNER.
I completely understand wanting financial security from your partner so long as that's not the only reason you get with him. Unless he's just trying to use you then use him too, get the bag and green card sis. But if he's a good man that's being serious with you don't take advantage of him actually give him a chance to be a good man for you.
Because Western are wealthy they don't need to work. They can afford maids and butlers. Whereas southeast Asians Women and black African women have to work.
di lahat, excuse me. kung sugapa ang babae sa pera then i will agree. parang gusto mong sabihin with your comment na mostly of the people are bad. ang love at lust ay never mo ito itulad dahil nakakaoffend sa feeling ng tao. kung maganda lang mamuhay sa pinas, doon kami dahil sobrang taas ng tax namin dito. Realtalk
this passport bro hyping filipinas, yet the percentage of filipinas marrying foreigners are so low...an american woman will more likely marry outside of her culture...
A woman who attacks, betrays and promotes hatred/racism/disrespect against her own race, family and children and goes with the enemy is NOT "faithful" and "family-orientated"
The Philippines still carries the caste system from Spain. The differences between poor, middle, and rich are titanic. A lot are even genetically different. Very different speech and accents. Dating a middle or upper class girl is a totally different thing. They can travel the world no issue and don't need your green card. They don't even want to leave the Philippines permanently. At a certain income, life in the Philippines is better than 1st world countries. Not so many Western men go for these Filipinas, though. The find the poor girls more pretty.
To be fair class doesn't make a woman more attractive, most foreigners have no issues dating lower class women if they look the same as upper class women.
They're all the same to non-South East As;ans, they may look better to South-East As;ans, but to other cultures, it's all the same. I'll give you another example, As;ans ( East, South-East, South, doesn't matter) think an average blonde girl looks like a celebrity, even though in her culture , everyone understands she is just average at best.
@@Cxs1a3 That's true. I saw that Japan has a Slavic beauty queen, but she looks totally average. Nothing meant to be insulting. That's just what people like. You could call it God's way. The lower class Asians very rarely have the looks to marry up. And often don't have the education to get a good job. So the Western man seeking them specifically is a God send. And the Western man is so fed up with BS. He just wants someone to be sweet on him and manage the household and give him peace. It's like some mysterious way of God pulling them together. And an average or ugly Western guy with an average or ugly Asian tend to have good looking kids. A lot become models. But ask any Asian people, and they say, "Why the hell they like those girls? She's ugly. She has scars. She doesn't have a good job." But this is like another mystery work of God. Because the Western men are not competing with the Asian men. No one is butting heads. Everybody can win!
In As'an cultures, looks alone is often not enough for a woman to marry a rich guy. Looks alone may get you 1 nite stands, secs, dates, becoming the mistress, but in terms of marriage, society looks down on poor girIs, even if she's good looking. Most rich As;an guys I know marry average-looking rich girls, because that's what society respects, society does not respect hot poor girls. Western culture is different, western culture sheets on rich girls who aren't pretty and hold up poor hot girls on a pedestal. And that is why a lot more wite guys marry girls from poor countries, because their culture is a lot more open to that, whereas As'ans look down on people who do that.
I'm jusy saying.. Japanese people are broke nowadays and just scared for their future 😅 The ladies I know who married Japanese men are hard working and full of love for their husbands. The Japanese husbands are blessed.

Wow their comments are so Insightful. We mock Americans for being inward looking, sometimes some Asians can be a little like that but Filipinos are so thoughtful about cross cultural integration. Repect Philippines people I absolutely adore you. Bonus I was taught Asian cooking by a Filipino mum of a gorgeous mixed race friend. ❤
Asian Boss, I hope you’d feature more interesting topics about the Philippines, too, and not always stereotypical ones like this and “how much do you earn,” “why do Filipinos have so many babies,” then asking mostly low-income demographics.
I just noticed you feature really interesting topics for other countries, yet in the Ph, it feels like your topics are to emphasize how low-life or poor the country is. Don’t you lack researchers for the PH?
Young innocent Indian students are getting ki**ed in USA every other day asian boss. Last month 20 Indian students got ki**ed.this month 5 students got ki**ed.Where is your news about it Asian boss? Why are you not making video about it? Why are you silent? Where is your video about targeted ki**ing of Indian students in America Asian boss? You call yourself asian boss so why are you not standing up for those Indian kids?
I concur. The topics that Asian “Boss” choose to feature about the Philippines have all involved coloured questions that paint a degrading image of the Philippines.
Does the fact that the owner of this channel is Korean have anything to do with it?
Can’t you think of more interesting questions? Or interview a more diverse demographic in the Philippines instead of interviewing only the low income group? Or would that just not align with the narrative you want to create?
Asian Boss, why are you like this? We've been following this channel for years and it's becoming obvious that you're a victim of your own deeply ingrained racial biases that leave little for meaningful discourse about asian countries aside from South Korea, Japan, and China. Should have just named the channel East Asian Boss if all you do is put east asians in a better light while denigrating the rest of asia. Do better.
I'm a Filipina who married a Japanese guy yet I don't have any financial problems in my family. I'm one of those Filipinos who live in nice subdivisions. Thing is, when I was single, I had bad experiences with dating Filipino men. They didn't take me seriously as I wanted a date to marry route. They just cheated on me or blatantly have no long term plans. I changed the dating field and unexpectedly ended up with a Japanese man just 6yrs older than me. I seriously hate other Filipino men's comment, "nakaahon sa kahirapan" because not all Filipinas who marry are poor. Some just need better men who are serious and loyal with marriage. Insecure lang kayo (karamihan). Kadalasan kayo pa magbubuntis ng babae tapos di nyo pananagutan. That I don't like.
Currently, nasa PH kami nakatira. Sa mismong sariling bahay at lupa ko pa. Both of us work and he earns slightly higher than me kasi maraming work experience na siya than me.
Asian Boss always, always, focus on asking the low income sector or poorer sector, like almost in every video they feature about the Philippines.
Instead of addressing the stereotypes about Filipinos and Filipino women, I get it that majority of Filipinos are poor but that’s already a given, but still this channel focus on topics about how poor the country is or interviewing the poorer sector hence get the same stereotypical answers.
But they post more interesting topics for other Asian countries posted. I just feel like this channel is so biased with east Asian countries and degrading Southeast Asian ones.
G na g?😅
I am also a product of Japanese and Filipino couple. Half ako. Pinanganak ako sa Japan. Pero girlfriend ko ngayon ay pure Filipino and we met here. I think dahil din sa social media I would also know if the girl is into money or not, you can just sense that. And luckily, my girlfriend I met here in Japan is not one of them. We both work hard for our future! Don't let those haters get them to you, kasi at the end of the day, nasa sipag talaga para makaahon, hindi sa pag-aasawa ng ibang lahi!
@@mischa6688 The reason why, because in the middle-class or upper, the number of people who are mix-blooded increases. Marami nang Chinese, Spanish, American, European, or Japanese decents. Samantala sa middle-class or lower, mas marami ang nasa pure Filipino lineage.
Yep. I find it telling how they don't mention that middle class and wealthy Filipinas ALSO marry foreign men quite frequently. Including members of my own family, and we're fairly middle class. As if they really want to push the narrative that we're just doing it for the money and desperation. Tapos yung comments puro mga racist na East Asians or self-hating na mga lalaki na hinahayaan lang nila.
Chinese men are marrying a lot of foreigners too because there are now more men in China then women. A lot of Chinese men are marrying Filipino, Laos and Vietnamese women.
*than , writing typo won't make you U.S. citizen.
Why not other east asians?
@@user-me1mv4vy9q other east asian women are not marrying or dating. Japan, China, Korea's birth rate is very low right now.
Most chinese men are married to Thai, Laos and S.Korea
They are even buying wives from Pakistan bro.
In Japan, we say “You don’t marry a Filipina, you end up marrying their family”. It’s always about an escape and there’s always a child left behind which they want to bring over.
Im not Japanese but based on experience, you indeed marry their family
You call yourself “chinito” you’re just a Filipino living in Japan lol.
Exactly. You have to financially take care of their family. That's their problem.
You’re Filipino living in Japan.
You’re Filipino though LOL
I can sense the passport bros from a distance
Been a passort bro before it was a term 😂
What the heck is a passport bro?
Ridiculous term.
Sex tourist
Same 😂😂😂😂@@cooliipie
Whats a Passport bro?
@@gewglesux The "Passport Bros" are men who have chosen to seek out foreign women, typically from other countries, for relationships. They believe that western women have been influenced by cultural and societal pressures to behave in a certain way, and that by seeking out foreign women, they can find a more authentic, fulfilling, and harmonious relationship. This is seen as a way to restore the natural balance between masculine and feminine energy, and to avoid the "wickedness" of western women.
Source: Urban Dictionary
In other words, these are men who got tired of western women being -hoes- degenerates for da streets that they decided to seek love somewhere else. Particularly finding women that are conservative and traditionalist types aka the tradwife.
I used to think they're all gold diggers, but after experiencing it myself I think it's more about safety, security and a brighter future. My father was a Chinese businessman who was kidnapped and murdered when I was a baby and we were left with nothing after he was gone. My mother never remarried and worked really hard to raise her children by herself. She only remarried an Australian guy when i was a teenager and he was not rich, he was middle class, so she didn't marry for money, and now as an adult I understand she made the sacrifice for her kids. When you're living in a hopeless place, what is wrong with seeking a better future for yourself and your kids? It's easy to judge people when you're priviledged and don't know hardship.
Also he wasn't a good person, he had anger issues and was mentally abusive to my mom, calling her stupid all the time, but she endured the abuse for her children's future. He did help my mom move my brother and I from the Philippines and I'm grateful that he helped us despite his flaws. I'm very happy to be living in Australia, I think it is one of the best countries to live in, I personally think it's better than USA. My mother also signed a prenup so she never got anything substantial after my stepdad passed away. His grown up kids inherited most of his possessions. And I also built my wealth on my own, I put money into the stock market, I have my own house and my stepdad and mom never gave me any money to give me a leg up growing up.
People need to have more empathy for people who want to escape their hopeless situation. If we stayed in the Philippines I don't know if we would've survived.
See it's not about rich, it's more about the stereotypes of rich. It's more about intent, not actually what you end up with. Cuz I agree, most of them don't end up with much, but they certainly thought they would.
Thank you for sharing your story. It made me think and question about many things. I'm happy that you were able to seize the opportunity to build a better life for yourself. (And I definitely agree that Australia is better than the US for many reasons.)
Good for you and your family. I personally do have sympathy for people like your family. Marriage is a contract and if it works and can meet each other's needs, develop feelings for each other, and treat each other with respect, I think it's fine. But it's not good that your stepdad was abusive. You must be a strong person (mentally).
What's your mother nationality?
Thanks for sharing
Well people shouldn’t judge if they aren’t willing to live out that persons life….
And no nothing women with a Kellen wanting safety and security. And the man wants Secks. Both are adults and if they come to an agreement who cars what they do with their life. Let people live how they want.
The judgmental ones are the ones who don’t do anything anyways and just nag others.
"So why do you want to marry a foreigner?"
Them: "Money" (said in Mr Krab's voice)
6:45 none of them preferred foreigners than their own kind.
as one of the women said in the videos, it's a negative stereotype about Filipinas.
@@Mr.Hansome-mt8eh It’s true. Not all Filipinos are attracted to foreigners. There are also rich/middle class/poor Filipinos who work hard and don’t need foreigners to live. This was filmed in a poor area, so of course you’d judge them LOL. Let them go to BGC or Makati, answer would be 100% different.
MONEY MONEY, a ticket out of poverty, she doesn't care how old are you, how you look, she wants out of the Philippines.
@@zhang_hua1998 That's just what they say, people often say things that society wants them to say, even if they don't believe it . Their actual preference, only they will truly know deep down inside.
..naaalala ko lagi yung linyahan na, "isang kababayan na naman po natin ang nakaahon sa kahirapan"..
Not all some aren't lucky.
@@visualbeauty3427 that luck goes both ways tbh some are horrible expats/foreigner and some are horrible filipinas
@@leviboom0932 hhmm 👍🏼
Well, they interviewed low-income people, it’s common sense that the answers would be for “money,” but if they interviewed at least upper middle to well-off ones, they’d get different answers.
sus not all foreigners are rich. marami jan baon sa utang. remember debt culture. Mangyayari nyan, they'll bring the wife abroad and let them work so they can help pay off their mortgages.
As a foreigner (but SE Asian) that travels to Philippines alot, i certainly don't get the fancy perceptions of a foreigner! I cant give any green card, I'm not rich, and bcos I already look like a pinoy guy, I certainly can't give any mixed looking babies 😂
Go to high income or meet richer Filipinos and realize this fancy perception is mostly just among the poor sector.
This channel didn’t care to interview middle class, upper middle class, or rich women, the answers would have been different.
@@mischa6688 as someone who is dating in the Philippines right now I've met more scammers in the rich part of the Philippines than I have in poorer areas.
Some kids in the Philippines literally eat food out of the trash to survive, the small things we take for granted in the US, Canada, etc. and complain about they’d literally die for
@@jennyhateseverything I've actually seen that, this kid and his mother were looking for food out of the trash sleeping on the streets. I bought them food and took them in. I have no intention of dating her or being a step dad tho I'm just helping them get on their feet. Sent the mother to college and she's doing everything she can to better herself and take full advantage of the opportunity. Plus she's been a huge help in growing my business here in the Philippines
They are not referring to you as a foreigner, they are referring to foreigners from rich countries
3:28 I'm curious about how many of the 15,000 foreigners who have married Filipinas did so with the intention of purchasing properties in the Philippines or starting a business there. It's difficult to determine the exact number or conduct a survey on this, but it's definitely a possibility. I doubt that most of these men are extremely wealthy or well-off in their own countries. Perhaps marrying a Filipina is a way for them to have a more comfortable retirement, establish a business, or invest in properties that would be challenging to do in their home country. It would be interesting if the channel could also showcase these foreign nationals and their reasons for marrying Filipinas in a future video.
Foreigners can't buy property in the Philippines without marrying a Philippine citizen?
Yes@@Beckala67
Too bad you're asking too much from a channel that is becoming more interested in click bait-y topics. So sad for this channel.
A lot of Chinese do it and increasingly a lot of Koreans, that's why there are a lot of them here with businesses and establishments. A lot also assimilate into the country though, they're pretty much full blown Filipinos a couple generations in the future, like the owner of Jollibee or Chowking. It's pretty natural, I have no problem with it
@@Beckala67 Foreigners cannot buy land. They can rent it long-term, though. Foreigners can buy condominum units outright as long as total foreign ownership of all units in project do not exceed 40%. Rent of land in rural areas can be very cheap. There are some townhouses titled as condominium units that foreigners can buy. Some use dummies to buy land.
0:29 Please don't have too many expectations about Korean people; they may not fulfill your fantasies.😅
I agree, knowing that some of them are abusive...
facts theyre mad racist in korea lmfaoooo and the ppl there hate filipinos.
Lol we know what your alluding to or the lack or …
Fr, even after the news or the viral videos of Koreans showing racism towards us and other Southeast Asians.
You can spit them on the face, and they would still like you, that is how some Filipinos are, unfortunately.
Personally, I'm mixed ethnicity American myself, I've also raised my son on my own, & have never needed anyone's help, but I have no problem with Americans or other Westerners marrying foreign born people, like that one guy said in the video, the mixing of peoples is a beautiful thing. ❤
Never needed anyones help? Were you in the states and did you avail public assistance programs?
There are people who priced out and can't marry anyone. So beautiful is a subjective term. There winner and losers
@@jimf937 Yes, I live in the US. I work full time, I've also gotten a degree in food science, & a certificate in baking & patisserie from culinary school. I also worked in electronics for nearly 10 years, & was in the army national guard.
So, no I've never needed anyone to 'take care' of me financially.
Why would you have an issue with it? You're not the one who has to deal with women abandoning you for richer men and leaving you in poverty. Which is not your fault, not everybody's luck is the same, but It's baffling why you think you're the one to speak on having a problem.
@@chriIIemy sympathy with you guys. i really wanna help you but i dont know how. If they did this to you, then there is no reason for you to care about them anymore.
Let’s be real though. The Philippines is a developing country, people want to improve their lives, who wouldn’t when you grow up with so little? The means aren’t there for many of them, the privileges of being born in a developed country aren’t afforded to them. So yes, there will be assumptions made of white people, people coming from developed Asian countries and people who have the finances to travel to the Philippines. Filipina women may see these men as an opportunity to get more out of life, and we live in a world where sex sells, and if a man is willing to offer her what she wants and a shot at improving hers and her family’s situation, it’s easy to understand why she would take the opportunity. I’m not saying it’s morally right, but it does feel like punching down when these women are villainized simply for wanting a better life from what little opportunities they may be presented with.
And these men are actually, mostly, the last resort of women who want to improve their lives.
And somebody here made a great point, it’s a two-way thing. Why do foreigners marry women coming from a poorer background? Because they get something from them, sex, control since these women are financially-dependent on them.
@@mischa6688 exactly.
Well, I don't think it's necessarily punching down, it's more so society highlighting an unfair privilege that is only afforded to a certain gender
I agree with this answer I just hate how a lot of the Filipinas lie about their real reason, no you don’t “love” that old ass man ready to die, you just want to escape, just be honest.
i don't judge them that is my mentally before atleast i can marry foriegner pero nong nag matured na ako nka graduate nka work yun mindset ko ng iba na kumikita na ako ngkapatayo ng bhay duon ko napagtanto kyang mong umahon sa hirap khit papano live simple life that it.

"Of the total registered marriages in 2021, 98.6 percent or 351,869 were between Filipino men and women, and only 1.3 percent or 4,787 were between Filipinos and foreign nationals." 1.3% is "so many"?

Because there are a lot of lonely men who do not have a shot with women in their own country
exactly. the foreigners coming to the philippines arent exactly top tier men... i pity the poor filipinas. theres a reason why in every video like this, the age of the foreigners is always mentioned - they are the losers of their own nations who cannot find women of their own race.
Lonely yes because they're dopes, they much rather marry white women by 500% more than any Asian or Filipina. But they can't buy white women
Well, in fairness there are also a lot of old unmarried Korean women. Even if these guys did have a shot , most guys would agree a younger girI from a poor country is a more attractive proposition. So, the rejection really does go both ways.
AKA the "UNDESIRABLES" come to the Philippines because a whole subculture of young ignorant naive girls was created to "date" old dust buckets.
They don't have shot with them as well but they will tolerate because even poorest man in any western country is considered rich in theirs so that's it you either bring money or genetic (looks) in today's dating world or you are nowhere
I think it's incredibly unfair that many people only look at this one side of the relationship and label these women from the Philippines or Thailand or where have you as nothing but gold diggers or green card-chasers. Sure, perhaps some of them are, but are we really going to pretend that the men that they marry are innocent saints with no ulterior motives of their own? How is the person looking for a better life for herself and her family a worse person than the one who's taking advantage of her circumstances in the hopes of getting a housemaid or S-slave for free?
Let me add that I'm sure plenty of these people (on both sides) do indeed marry for love, just like in other international marriages from other countries. I just don't like seeing how women like this are being vilified the way that they are when there are two people in the marriage/relationship.
Somebody mentioned the owner of this channel is a Korean, and imo topics about the PH is from his own narrative, like how poor the PH is whereas topics from other countries are “not as predictable” as this one. I mean, the PH is a poor country, yes, so why ask something that most of the world universally know already? Or at least they could’ve sought other answers by asking diverse group of women or people, not those with predictable answers.
And thanks for mentioning most foreigners actually take advantage of Filipino women, and sometimes even use them just to get their trust fund and whatnot then do something to them after, so isn’t that a win-win?
There is nothing wrong with being poor and marrying for greener pasture, but what is wrong is this channel kind of painting a bad picture that mostly, if not all Filipino, Thai women, or Southeast Asian women marry just for money, while topics in East Asia are totally different from this.
They look down on their own men and don''t give their own men a chance, even if they work hard and earn a decent salary in that country. That might deserve vilification. The biggest losers in this exchange is really men in poor countries who have no escape route.
@@chriIIeIs it a woman’s fault if she wants to live a life that is more than just decent and relies on every pay day? Many Filipino women now have been earning a lot because of determination and hard work and there is nothing wrong with looking for someone who also earns a similar amount or higher than you who would end up a good provider.
And I think it is not isolated for Filipino women. I think any ambitious and strong-willed woman who are fortunate enough to have higher income opportunities would want a good provider husband regardless of race, color, and whatnot.
@@mischa6688 There is a way to do that without perceiving your own kind as inferior.
@@chriIIelooking inferior at someone and having preferences are not the same thing. Filipino women do not look down on men, Filipino men or not. Pls do not define having preferences as same as looking down on men.

I married a korean not because he is financially stable infact we have the same level of lifestyle but i liked that he pursued me for 4years when no Filipino guy has proved something like that to me. Culture wise could vary but i believe its still how the person was brought up at home and his environment. On the other hand i still sense some people around me thinks the same way when they found out a filipina is marrying a foreigner but i dont give a f. tbh i am happily married To the love of my life and I don't treat him as a foreigner as well
He is also just a year older than me. Some of my friends were actually asking if my Visa is on the process or asking me where am I gonna stay for good. I already know what they are curious about. We are living in the Philippines and I'm not even planning to go to Korea anytime soon. I still love to be in my own territory.
Well, maybe because you're not that special to be chasing for 4 yrs. I'm sure you had guys approach you, but to expect 4 yrs of chasing is just not reasonable when realisitically, you're not that special and that's not a personal attac on you, nobody is that special. And also just cuz a Korean guy chased you for 4 yrs, doesn't mean that you're special, it probably means he's just desperate, cuz let's be honest, if another girl gave him a chance in those 4 yrs, it's "cya later" to you.
@@Cxs1a3 damn who hurt youu? I was treated special and so i feel special ☺️
@@Cxs1a3 i also knew my worth girl and I basically wanted him to prove that he was serious because i also know the stereotypes with Koreans thats why it took him 4 years.

I'm watching this after the news that a Filipino family planned and murdered a Filipino mother and her half-Japanese daughter for money. It was precious money the mother and daughter slowly saved over the years to purchase a house in the Philippines. (The daughter reportedly worked for ANA group in Japan). Once you leave the Philippines, it may be safer to never look back because evidently even your own family members can target you.
What was the case name?
You know what’s the connection of your comment? Things like this happen everywhere. You know envious relatives who ask money from you but you reject them, it happens everywhere.
@@mischa6688Happens everywhere, really? They were killed during their sleep and dumped by their own Filipino family members for their money while visiting the Philippines. If you think this is normal behavior, we must really live in different worlds.
Obviously, the connection is the daughter was half-Filipino and half-Japanese raised in Japan. It's just beyond belief that the aunt will plan for months to kill her sister and niece for money.
yea this happens in all countries… what a dumb comment making it seem culturally specific… in the West they collect insurance money
This can be said for anyone who leaves a third world country
Some people say because women want to get out of poverty. But not all foreigners are well off or rich. Minsan mas successful pa nga financially ang mga Pinay compared sa asawa nila. So u cannot generalize.

This channel always interviews the low income sector. Common sense they’d get the same answers. Lol. Instead na magspread ng awareness na hindi lahat ng Pinay gold-digger or habol lang is pera, naka-add pa lalo sa stereotype.
@@mischa6688 so true. to be honest, who needs a foreign guy if you can easily get alomg with the Pinoys? Not saying that falling in love with foreigner is wrong, but honestly if you're comfortable in life, they're just an option.
@@pidgy_poofoomidk but if you will check the topics about Ph on this channel, may pattern sila na parang degrading yung topics about Philippines. lol. Like come on, wala na ba kayong maresearch na interesting aside from focusing that the PH is poor or women are gold-diggers and whatnot.
Also, what’s the point if you will interview just one sector? Of course you’ll get the same answers when in fact, Filipino women are so diversed now, there are a lot of independent, upper-middle class Filipino women who tend to be earning higher than most Filipino men, thus making them seem intimidating for Filipino men. I could go on and on with a lot of reasons, but this channel and comment section like to focus on stereotyping.
So much racism and misconceptions in the comments, I doubt many of them even watched the video. A lot of it borne from their own cultural lenses that view women as just wives.
First off, the Philippines is THE most gender equal country in Asia. Higher than developed Asian countries like South Korea or Japan, higher even than first world western countries like the US. We have the highest number of women in senior management positions, top 10 in terms of the highest number of female CEOs, and we've had two female presidents. The simple fact that women here are treated far more equally is the exact reason why they can choose to marry a foreigner with no social repercussions.
Filipinas marry foreigners because they CAN. Whereas in your countries, doing so would be viewed with derision or shame. It's a reflection of your own cultural biases that you laugh at us.
1. Filipina women genuinely find most foreigners attractive. The same reason that someone might find a Filipina beautiful, is the same reason Filipinas might find foreign men attractive. The same is true for Filipino men and foreign women, as well as for Filipino LGBT people and foreign LGBT people. Our beauty standards tend to go for the different, rather than the similar. We universally find mixed people beautiful, it's why a large number of our celebrities are mixed, far more than most other countries. See 11:16
2. Financial security. It's funny how people find this weird, when the vast majority of people also marry for this reason. The Philippines is a developing country. If a man can provide a better life, he'll always have an advantage over someone who can't. Practicality. It's PART of the reason, but not THE reason. See 10:14
3. The trade-off is the cultural differences. As I've already mentioned, Filipina women are used to being equal. We are family-oriented which a lot of foreigners mistake as being submissive. We're not. And a huge fear into entering mixed marriages is that they might end up being mistreated. See 7:17 and 8:05
There are exceptions of course. And they're obvious. Mostly when the age and attractiveness gap is wide. But that happens in any country.
im happy to read that gender equality is good there
"There are exceptions of course. And they're obvious. Mostly when the age and attractiveness gap is wide. But that happens in any country."
Yes it does, but seemingly far more common with Filipinas. I wonder why.
Lot of these people in the comment section, never been out of the United States at all, they think going to Mexico and Canada, they are well travel.
And yet the passport bros come here to seek our women here because most of the foreign men are Catholics, have ability to speak English and very family-oriented, who doesn't want to have that?
@@kzm-cb5mr And yet a lot of them survive and thrive as families in the long run. Kinda puts a spanner on your stereotype that they're only marrying for money, doesn't it? Hence exceptions. I've seen couples with almost 30 year gaps who are happily married. Instead of sneering at that, sneer instead at the countries where the MEN actively buy brides from other countries, and then in most cases, mistreat them. THAT is very prevalent in other Asian countries. Yet get much lesser attention.
I have zero issues with Filipinas marrying foreigners. Sometimes it ends well, other times it doesn't. Instead I feel like there are other issues that are more important like the fact that divorce is not recognized in the Philippines, or that Abortion is illegal, or that sex education in the Philippines is abysmal.
@@life_is_a_myth what about that is “American wokeness?” The right to divorce someone, the right to bodily autonomy, the ability to be educated about sex? This isn’t selecting pronouns, in many developed countries, these are basic human rights and education. If the Philippines wants to progress, we should be developing, not staying the way we always have been.
Why would you have an issue? Unless you're South-East As;an men who have their women "stolen", while they have basically 0 chance of marrying women from richer countries, I mean even other poor South-East As;an countries won't give them a chance.
@@life_is_a_myth A consequence is putting too much sugar in your coffee and now you can't sleep or stealing something and getting arrested for it. It's not condemning yourself to abuse for the rest of your life because you married the wrong person. It's not forcing your body to take a baby to term even though you were raped. It's not being ignorant because a system believes that not educating you on sex is the only way to prevent it.
is your profile reinhardt from OW? 😂
@@Linoxism It actually is western culture. As;a is a conformist society where you are expected to conform to the marriage and the family, even if you don't like it, whereas in western culture, people are encouraged to find a marriage that conforms to them. So, As;an women abandoning As;an culture and their role for their own selfish interests, is actually a very culturally western thing to do.
I’ve said this in a comment before and I’ll say it again. PLEASE DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE AMERICAN DREAM. The American dream is nonexistent anymore. I was a tourist there for a month and everything shocked me. From stinky ass bathrooms, violent homeless people on crack, and people labeling themselves whatever because they have 100+ gender identities, etc. It is the most unsafe country I’ve visited, and I’ve visited over 16 countries. Not all Americans are rich, a lot are struggling and broke. It’s not like the movies you watch and you’re not automatically rich once you land in America. A lot of Americans don’t even have passports and aren’t well-traveled because they can’t afford it. Please don’t be blinded.
Show me a country where there's no drug addicts, scammers, homeless people, filthy bathrooms, just make the best of the USA, we are not a perfect country but why everyone wants to come to the USA? Reason, opportunity you just don't sit on your butt and expect a silver platter you have to work or go hungry, many jobs available but some people are just lazy.
@@eddieBoxer People wanting to come isn't an accurate indication of the actual situation. It's an indication of the image that's been marketed. What the actual citizens have to say is the more appropriate thing to look at.
@@eddieBoxer That’s the thing, the US is highly-idealized. Yes, people earn more. But with the high living cost in America, does earning big compared to other countries guarantee that you’ll be rich in the US? The US thinks the world revolves around them and that you’re automatically unsuccessful or poor if you’re not from the US.
@@eddieBoxer the fact that you’re also calling people lazy for not being rich or successful reeks of privilege. a lot of people work from 9-5 or even work for hours in the US but don’t get rich.
You're very smart. I have an American boyfriend and I've never been to America but I don't want to live there. My bf and I prefer to live in the Philippines. He likes the easier, more relaxed life here. I choose to live here because I don't have to work. He's not rich. If we move to the USA, I understand I may have to work in order to help pay the bills. We both have Master's degrees. I earned my master's degree from Japan and he from an Ivy league uni in the US. I told him that if he didn't have a master's degree, I wouldn't have agreed to be in a relationship with him because I don't want to be more "educated" than my man, if that makes sense, lol... We both are not using our Master's degrees to earn our living cos we prefer the bohemian lifestyle. 😊
This was intresting. I’m married to a Thai woman. We met here in Europe where we live now. She had been here already for a couple of years when we met. She had a relative here who she visited and then stayed on here to work.
I’m not a rich guy, but not poor either. She is a hard worker and does not want to sit home and not contribute to the family. So we help and support each other as needed.
She does have some friends here and back home who got married for other reasons. Financial reasons and the dream of a better life. We seenaround us relationships that are more of an agreement of convenience rather than a relationship of love or romance.
Main thing is treating each other right regardless of the agreement you have with each other. Sadly that isn’t always the case and we know of both women who moved here only to find that priccharming was anything but that and mistreated them. On the other hand men being completely ripped off by gold diggers also happens. And then there are those who actually managed to meet irl or online and live up to the expectations which are the success ones. We have been married for 9 years now and take good care of each other and our kid.
Stories seem similar all around south east Asia
Wow that's awesome
Philippines is a classist society. The rich/middle class Filipinos tend not to date below a certain line. This line is delineated by income, family, and education. People stay in their social circles. College graduates usually date and marry other college graduates. Professionals date and marry professionals. Poor Filipinos have only a few options to move up. Education, business, sports, entertainment, go abroad, or marry a foreigner, or a combination.
Other than marrying a foreigner, the other options require hard work and/or talent. The Filipinas that actively look for foreign men are usually of this class. These are the ones you usually see that are young with the old retirees. Now, I'm saying this generally.
Rich/middle class Filipinas are open to foreigners but not actively looking for them. There has to be a natural real connection there, real attraction. They are not desperate to escape poverty. Their families are fairly well off. My foreign uncles are the same age their wives and they never get asked for money.
Rich/middle class Filipinas, from what I've been told, actually avoid foreign men. The young guys tend to be f boys just looking for a good time, not serious. They don't want the retirees because other people will look at them as lower class.
This is not to bash the Filipinas that go for foreigners as from the lower class. Its is a natural prerogative for each of us to provide for ourselves and our families the best we can. I myself am married to a non-Filipina. It was out of real attraction, emotional connection, compatibility, and commitment. Many in my family who marry non-Filipinos are the same, we are fortunate that finances are not a main consideration for choosing a partner for life.
Also, rich Filipinas will marry the equivalent of a diplomat or successful businessman fr another country. They will not go for the average joe. Haha
I am Filipino, but born in different country. I absolutely despise how superficial it is. Now I sense crappy passport bros who do not want to compromise and are all about them.
Doesn't really matter which country, South-East Asian women are all the same no matter what country they're in, they all look down on their own men, even when their own men make more money than white men , which they do in North America (on average).
@@chriIIe don’t talk about stuff you don’t know. A lot of Filipino men are lazy, alcoholic, and they go around cheating. You’d be surprised that majority of the breadwinners here are women. Filipino men spend so much time playing video games and drinking alcohol with their friends. I have two Filipino uncles who rely on their wives because they’re unemployed and lazy. All my Filipino uncles are lazy, while my Filipino aunts are hardworking for the sake of their kids.
@@chriIIe pffft nice story but white men are in the bottom in singapore and brunei; south east asian country mostly are poor but when rich men arrive white men cant compete with them

I'm Romanian and married in January 2022 to a Filipina. We got married 6 months after we've met and we love each other more with each passing day, however our relationship was FAR from normal: we've met during the pandemic, never met before marriage and we married online (reported our marriage afterwards), needless to say that was only the beginning...but hey it worked out and when we get old we have a hell of a story to tell, in fact on our 1st anniversary that's exactly what we did: made a sweet private video together saying our story to our future kids.

South east asian patriarchy is different and difficult then western patriarchy. Serving husband and children is easier then obeying and serving husband and his parents and siblings. Western cooking and cleaning is comparatively easier than eastern world. So even rich girls try to escape patriarchy.
Are you even South east asian? Where tf did you hear about south east asian patriarchy.
Because Western are wealthy they don't need to work. They can afford maids and butlers. Whereas southeast Asians Women and black African women have to work.

Outside of Americans, marrying a foreigner doesn't make it easy for a Filipina to move to their new husband's country. For Brits the process is so long and the financial requirements are so tough its easier to stay in the Philippines or just move to a third country. For Canadians this process can take over a year if its even approved.
1 year ain't that bad.
Unfortunately, there is too much xenophobia in Britain.

Shame on them
aside from that more and more Filipinas are choosing to stay in the Philippines due to the current situation in the West. They are in a downfall, while generally the Asian nations are booming. It does not make sense.
My cousin married an older lady from the Philippines, at first we thought it might be a money thing, especially as she couldn't even speak english well but not once we saw her. They met while they were both working in Hong Kong and actually planned to move to the Phillipines so it wasn't for a green card.
They are still together decades later with a son. She worked to send money home to her family. He did make good money but not rich by any means. .
The older ones are more likely to stay with her foreigner husband but with the young ones it’s more about the money.
@@jeromeevangelista7421 Some of her friends are married to dutch men too, I think it's more about the man. For instance the ones going there to get a younger pretty housekeeping wife are usually not very attractive and basically not a good catch at home. But a younger man who treats his wife well can have a normal relationship.
We knew from looking at my cousin's wife that she wasn't using looks to get a western man, she was neither young nor prettier than other women he could get if he wanted. But they did seem to get attached for other reasons. The family welcomed her too so that helps. I don't think the women want to be divorced unless they are really just in it for a green card or money.
As long as they’re white, it’s the end game
Great conversation! Thank you!

My Korean man is the sweetest. People who generalize Korean men are idiots (often racists) who refuse to understand that there are good and bad men in every country/ethnicity.
Not true at all
I had a Filipino housemate. Dates only and only white men. Didnt have a good experience with her. She was cunning and manipulative. Even her relationships felt like that to me. Very eager to be with white people. Didn't know Filipino women usually go for foreigners. Just saw this video and realised this about her.
this is obviously hype perpetrated by western losers... Western women are more likely to marry outside her culture than a filipina...only 4-7 % yearly are interracial marriages in the philippines, while the west is 10% western women according to pew research

Sadly true.

@@awellculturedmanofanime1246 Poverty doesn't justify looking down on your own race as 1nferior, which almost all of these women do.
@@awellculturedmanofanime1246 a lot of them stay married for years. most filipinos who marry old foreigners aren’t even attractive. most of the filipinos who marry old foreigners are maids looking for love. Filipinos are conservative and family-oriented. They take marriage seriously that’s why they are valued by foreigners. Not to mention, they’re natural caretakers.
Hey, instead of marrying a foreigner to escape your country, it would be awesome if you filipinos and filipinas worked together to make your country worth staying at. Protest, vote, unionize, demand for change and force your system to make things better. You all deserve the very best for yourselves and country so take it!
It’s easier said than done though, the protesting for change lol. Have you heard about red-tagging or murder-for-hire stuff here?
There are a lot of people who had been murdered for resisting about a piece of land/nature, mining, corruption, etc. It’s a normal thing here, even during the elections. Lol
Trust me, we do. The issue here is corrupt politicians and brainwashed Filipinos. When there was an election, a lot of educated Filipinos tried to protest and also educate those in the lower class about good election candidates. However, since education is a privilege, not all are well-informed/educated when it comes to history or politics. Politicians bribe Filipinos from the lower class to win. They are greedy. Filipinos aren’t the problem, it’s the people handling and manipulating it. So many bright Filipinos choose to live abroad because they feel that it’s helpless.
@@user-c3jdf9lylzse even if you had the privilege (whatever privilege that is), every poor country has its unique reason for being poor.

This guy doesn’t even know how normal election-related deaths are here for decades. Everything is easier said behind a keyboard/keypad.
It's not easy to escape from centuries of mismanagement. Taiwan and Korea were under Japanese administration for two generations and received influences from Japanese education, law, accounting, policy, infrastructure, culture, and government apparatus. There was even one Imperial University each created in both Taiwan and Korea, which offered the same higher-education as the 7 Imperial Universities in Japan mainland. They eventually used that knowledge-base to develop economically.
The Philippines got Spain and the US instead who weren't that interested in Filipino economic and human development, much like the colonies in Central and South America. Filipinos are hard-working and smart people, so if they can align their policy properties, they can easily be like Taiwan or South Korea.

Sad reality of how the world works... Money buys all
even human rights 😂
not really. Money can't buy all. Try it for yourself, offer yourself with some money to the locals, they will report you to the police for being pervert,
I actually disagree, it's a lot more pronounced in Asian cultured countries. Even in poor South-American countries, there are many poor guys that get hot girls just with just game. Even in rich western countries, a lot of girls prefer going for guys with game, rather than rich guys. But in Asia, game is almost worthless, different culture.
@@chriIIe Game works until you hit your mid 30s as a man. Try living in an apartment in your 40's as a man. Game is worthless at that point when the woman sees you can not even afford a house. Game over. As woman get older, they care less about your game and more about your financial situation.
@@garrydye2394In western cultures, game works at any age. Of course, not saying all women, but generally speaking, you can find at least a few wite girls of all ages that are ok with settling for game, even if you're broke. In Asia, game is almost worthless to women starting late 20s.
Regarding the "gold digger" stuff, I can say that money absolutely makes a difference. Women will go for those with more money most of the time, and why wouldn't they? Money is one of the biggest privileges we have in society, so if you have more money there is also more security. I think it makes sense. As long as there is love involved as well, I don't see any problem with it.
Thats a very cheap and pathetic reason to marry somebody

My wife is Filipino. I am American. I took an interest in learning her culture and the language. We teach each other. Her English is very good. She is coming to be with me in the US until I am out of the army and then we are moving back to the Philippines to have our family. I want to raise our children in the Philippines. I do not want her to lose her culture. I had no problem attracting American women, but they are not suitable to be wives and mothers. My wife is very traditional and Christian. She saved herself for marriage. It is not about money because I don't have any money to give. I am very patient and gentle with her. I know her emotions and her feelings. I know how to make her happy. I give her lots of attention and flowers and food to make her happy. All things that only require me to be a caring man and not money. Foreigners are not rich. In our own country, we are average at best. The only difference is the exchange rate and it is more affordable for us in the Philippines.
Does she treat u with gifts too bro? Because we have always done this as men me not so much, but what is it that they do for us is well? I would feel like I am not loved if she weren’t testing me is well
So basically, what I got from this video is: date and bed a foreigner, then marry a Filipino. Thanks for the clarification.
The Filipino society is very judgemental when it comes to these relationships. There is this decades old joke that roughly translates to "long live our fellow countrywoman, who finally rose from poverty" when someone is seen dating a white foreign man.
But as with all things, we should not generalize. I have friends who are more accomplished academically than their foreign partners. They have Postgraduate academic titles with high impact published papers and they are hapilly settled to a 9-5 office chad from a small town in UK.
People shouldn't generalize, but stereotypes certainly have some truth in it, can't really do much about it.
Because they interviewed people from lower income, therefore you’d get the same answers. But if they efforted and at least talked to more independent, with higher-income to wealthy Filipino women, then they’d get a lot of different reasons.
Instead of clearing some stereotype, or looking for other answers rather than typical answers from the poor, lower class, no, they’re okay with the universal answer which has always been the answer and is not surprising.

Some of us also grow up very Westernized. My friends and I share a lot of commonalities with Fil-Ams, even though we grew up here in the Philippines. Our perspectives and values have become a lot more easily compatible with other cultures, so it's not a big deal for us to date foreigners (and somewhat more difficult to date Filipinos, too).
It hurt a lot when my partner (at the time) said his dad was worried about our relationships because "Filipina women are always just out for citizenship or money"; I understood why he felt that way and that the stereotype exists for a reason. But that's also why I refused any presents or offers to pay for things that my ex initiated himself. I didn't need his money and his citizenship, and still don't.
So you're now with a filipino or with a foreigner?

What's funny or unbelievable about that? I didn't even speak Filipino until I was 10 or 11. I didn't attend church, fiestas, or other experiences many other Filipinos have. When I entered college, I was mocked for my accent when speaking Filipino cause it sounded "white" according to my classmates. @@gerplay2135
So this was told to me by my friend, a lady from Philippines. Firstly a lot of middle class parents tell their kids to become nurses because it's very easy to get a job in western countries due to high demand, so, escape your own country. Secondly, once one person is dating and married to a foreigner she will do her utmost to get the girls in the family to be introduced to foreigner men in her husbands circles so that they can also escape Philippines. Apparently it's harder being a woman in Philippines.
BTW they are great women and generally look after their families a lot. Western men probably prefer them because they are not as woke as women in their country and can look after a family well. Philippinos usually are family orientated and want to have lots of kids.
I completely understand that not everyone is the same and I am. Only talking from my own experience.
"Woke"🤣 , we American women (not all of us btw) won't take 💩, we can work, go to school, & take care of ourselves without a partner to 'help' us.

It’s the perfect situation for narcissistic men to get a young girl who doesn’t know about the world and isolate her from her friends and family with the promise of a better life. Notice how the men are always 60+ years old and the girls sometimes are freshly out of Highschool.
I remember Ed and Rose from 90 day fiance. Rose is a queen.
Let's not generalize and say EVERY Filipina want the same thing. I was raised to be financially independent and was taught to NEVER depend on anyone but yourself. I didn't marry a foreigner to have a better life. THAT is not the solution to your problems. ALSO, I've met rich Filipinos who marry foreigners but aren't relying on them to support their families. This is not the norm here.
Nah but the end game is that marrying someone outside the Philippines gives the option to leave and not deal with the country's issues. I can't blame them. Having no choice feels like you have no room to grow.
More trying is ask how many Filipinos were prefer to move abroad than live here with our current issues and youll find the real number.

That's the truth. There's no denying it, although not all filipina women thinks like that.
10:57 Kuya is the MAN !!!! SALUTE!🍻
Sad reality, there's actually Filipinos that give their foreign partner the responsibility to help their family. I used to play this mobile game and my team mates were expats that married Filipina, and most of their complains is they are the one providing money to their wife's siblings.
But of course, not all stories are like this. There are also Filipinos that don't depend financially on their foreign partners.
There is no such thing as an "expat" - why are foreigners in Asian countries "expats", but Asians in other countries are immigrants?
Well, it's not as sad as the reality for their men, who nobody in the world wants, even their own women don't want them.
marrying white people is more common in the countryside. people in the city are richer and very few of them like mestizos (white) preferences would be moreno (tanned skin filipino) or chinito (chinese)

5:29 you said it Sis!
I once sat down with two guys who were proud of telling me they were cheating on their gfs, very actively trying to hook up. A year later or so, I found out the dude married the girl. That was so messed up. Most Pinays hate dating local guys because they are 1) unfaithful and 2) don't grow up. It's no coincidence that PH startup system is full of female startup founders. I know a guy, he still lives with his mom at 31, he still takes no responsibility, and never works hard. Very common in PH. As a woman you're going to go with a man who's mature enough to live abroad, manages that well, and has a stable job vs a 30 year old Pinoy who still lives in mama's basement. Anecdotal joke lang, I know, basements aren't very common in PH lol
do you even know the actual statistics of interracial marriages in the philippines??...stop your delulu...you are only getting the leftovers.... the best women still goes to filipino men... i can even challenge you today to go to any mall, and We can easily find a filipina holding hands with local men and the vast majority of babies are pure filipino....LOL...
A lot of them are from poor families and are looking for a better life elsewhere. You can’t blame them for that. Some are even very honest about the fact they’re looking for financial support. Which I admire honesty. Better than hearing people say they’re looking for love and instead they’re simply looking for the most attractive or richest person they can find. Just be honest with what you’re looking for
First, why do Asian Boss always feature kind of belittling topics about the Philippines, like about this or “how much do Filipinos make,” “why do Filipinos have so many babies,” and interview mostly low-income class employees but you do more interesting topics about other countries? Are you lacking researchers in the Philippines? Lol
And regarding this topic, this is the problem when you only interview a certain demographic. Of course, low incomers would state just one point, “for money.”
“Gold-digging” or marrying foreigners for money applies mostly to low to middle income class Filipino, but if you will ask upper middle class to elites, it’s more of they meet foreigners on a daily basis from their networks from international schools or actually attending unis overseas particularly US, Europe, Australia, etc.
Also, it’s hard to find ambitious Filipino men on a daily basis, like those who are striving to earn more to be able to provide a better lifestyle for themselves and their families. A lot of Filipino men get too complacent with their job and are okay with “just okay” jobs as long as they can provide the basic needs, and I guess Filipino women nowadays have become more and more independent and it’s difficult to find someone who would match their being goal-oriented, don’t want to settle for less and whatnot. Whereas poor to middle-income classes in foreign countries could be upper-middle to upper class already if they are in the Philippines due to income gaps between Filipinos and richer countries.
what planet you come from??... only 4% are interracial marriage in philippines...this vloggers just hype it, to make it appear that filipinas are thirsty for foreigners...
Because Asian Boss is Korea based comapny.
Your comment is far more hostile towards Filipino men than this channel is towards the Philippines
Frankly, it is pathetic how slavish and self-degrading Thais, Filipinas etc are towards foreigners...and how hostile they are to their own race
just remember, locals also regard fil-ams as foreigners. my ex, when i went to uni in the Philippines, was stereotyped for the same reasons mentioned in the video. regardless of me knowing the culture, language, etc. i was still considered a foreigner
There's levels, yeah they see it as foreign, but you'll never be as foreign as a wite person or even an East-As'an.
@@etas1c nah, if there were levels, they'd call me fil-am; to at least acknowledge that i'm already speaking in Tagalog to them, but it doesn't matter, Tagalog or English. cause as long as you're not born in the Philippines, you're never filipino enough. so in the end, i'm just a foreigner.
There's levels to being foreign, not all foreign is equally foreign. Nobody is assuming you're rich just by looking at you, whereas a wite guy, for eaxmple, is automatically assumed to be rich cuz he's wite.
@@etas1c not sure where you got that from, but it’s been a stigma for generations where if you come from America, you’re rich
@@jrdatz Nobody looks at you and goes "Oh, look an American", sure when you open your mouth, maybe, but the point is nobody is automatically assuming just by looking at you, that you come from a rich country. Whereas a wite person , from 100 meters away , they will automatically assume is rich. Whereas you have to close the distance, and chat with them for awhile, before such assumptions are applied to you. The difference is you can't chat to everyone, that wite person will look wite to everyone. Therefore, for him it's much more universal that society assumes he is rich, whereas for you, it's not universal at all.
"True Filipina Success Stories"
I married my Jamaican husband coz I find him loyal and sincere... I had relationship with Filipinos but they cheated that is why I loose my sense of interest dating my country men. Dating a foreigner whether American or Indian also can't guarantee a good life. I've dated a stingy men american and indian where he wants you to be independent and a working woman so in my opinion not all foreigner has money mostly are debts.
Actually thier a lot of filo men dating and married to foreign girls but most of them is low-key the girls just got a lot of attention because when filipina girls got a foreign boyfriend they staring to make a vlog😂
This is true - I remember growing up and being disgusted at how much Asian women would brag about being with non-Asian men, while attacking their own race. How can people say Asian women are "family-orientated", when they will constantly attack their own race, family and kids compared to other races?
It's not a lot, it's actually very few, no girl in a foreign country, even poor countries ever said "I really wanna date a pilipino man". That's not to say it doesn't happen, but the point is nobody''s really dreaming about it.
😂😂 I just see a lot of them just they don't post in social media their relationship
And most of my Filo friend I know dating Ukraine and Aussie girl my few but I see a lot of them mostly in foreign countries.that because you don't see them often in social media.😁
The copium coming from you is insane, be real with yourself dude, most of them are not giving most of you a chance. Rare exceptions will always exist, but they're nothing more than rare exceptions.
As an Indian money is not a big deal for us but i have to admit we have indian wife priority.. bcz indian girls know how to deal with family problems even in the worst situations
South Asian women have even lower standards than South-East Asian women, whose standards are already quite low.
Not all Filiapinos are kind and caring. I'm from England and got into a relationship with a Filipina when I was an English teacher in Japan. Her and her family were the most evil people I ever met. Put me through hell. After the fact a lot of people told me Filiapinas are like that. I wish someone told me that before it happened.

not all, but generally marring a foreigner is the woman's last resort. Filipinas still prefer Filipino men
I HAD to watch this as my 'tita' (tagalog for 'aunt') married into our family just a few years ago from the Philippines to the USA here. She is a wonderful, sweet lady. She works two jobs, and cooks delicious meals. But my uncle (her husband) is a real lout. He clearly loves her and has steady employment, but has no wealth to speak of. And again, he's just a bad person.

Because they're too old to find a lady in there country so they venture to a 3rd world poverty country where the hungry Filipina lady is waiting, when you exist the plane you automatically become rich and handsome.

Interesting video for sure. My family immigrated to Canada from Pinas when I was 8. Im 23 now and my boyfriend is a "foreigner" as what the ates, kuyas, tito and tita would say in this video. Context is always important especially for this video because it's not black and white--me and my bf are around the same age and i definitely did not start dating him for the money. we just happened to connect really well, share the same values and morals, etc.
for the ate that said she wouldnt date a foreigner bc she heard stories from her friends about how they hurt them, i understand but that is why you should take this video with a grain of salt--thats her opinion, it's not a fact.
tito and tita in the end made some valid points, i respect that. they looked more on the optimistic side and the overall picture of the topic.
you are in Canada where western media dominate , so probably brain washed by western men as the savior and main characters... if you go here in philippines, where kpop and filipino pop culture dominate, the rest of women choose filipino men and Asian men.... in fact passport bro is just a hype.... only 4% are interracial marriage in philippines....
Imagine you have sons in the future - how would you explain to them that Asian women attack/betray Asian men as being racially/genetically/sexually inferior compared to other races BILLIONS of times?
I hope Asian Boss tries considering doing interviews in more progressive districs/cities such as BGC, Eastwood or Makati to get a broader perspective from other Filipinos.
You mean the more liberal woke version?
what will be difference, big cities there are more poor ppl who want green card.
BGC and Eastwood are not cities, but business districts. Most people come to work there, not live. 💀
@@engesyada2793 what even are the benefits of getting a green card?? American dream is dead. If I were a poor person and wanted to migrate, I wouldn’t choose the US. Americans think their country is the greatest when it’s just a country with 100+ gender identities, gun violence, and homeless people on crack. I spent a month in the US as a tourist and was shocked to see how ghetto the US is.

Lol, I was an exchange student in a university in The Netherlands, and I met my boyfriend there. He’s Scandinavian. I have found a job here in Europe on my own, and I did need anyone to vouch for me to be here. Moreover, my family back in PH did not need any monetary support as both of my parents are working and all of my siblings are professionals and have their own sources of income. I think the connotation about Filipinas having foreigner partners go on because the new generation still pick it up from the traditional perspective and incorporate it to double sided jokes, memes, and don’t think cognitively about diverse circumstances of what could be the other reasons why many Filipinas choose to be with a foreigner rather than a Filipino.
The connotation goes on because there is truth to it. In this country, anything foreign has a higher perceived value compared to a local.
@@erls5206 there is some truth, yes. Filipinos always make a big deal of many things and always have a say on someone else’s business.
Why promote the idea that your own race, family and if you ever have them - future kids - are racially, genetically and sexually inferior to other races?

Salute to all Pinays who chose their own countrymen. It’s better to stay at your own culture. Marry someone you can call home and where your dignity won’t be tarnished.
The reason philippine women are popular is I think because unlike western, Chinese and Japanese women under feminism, philippine women are good-natured and have traditional values and it seems attractive to the foreigners.
No. It is because they very easy to get like the easieat ans cheapest women in the world, that's why men who can not get woman in their own country flock to the philipine to get woman, thus give exposure to filipino woman
The lady saying accepting Indian culture is what she is looking for, ask if the Indian guy is even ready to accept the Filipino culture and be in phillipines , he’ll say no, put the weapons down, stop the stupidity, there should be cultural acceptance not dominance
Girls, be smart! Date and marry the person who treats you best AND can provide for you! Don't marry just for "love" or for looks. You will regret it!
If a foreigner treats you best go for it. It doesn't matter what people around you say.
Don't wait until you marry someone who treats you badly then leaves you and your kids before you date the right person. Make the right decision from the beginning!
let's not generalized philippine women as a gold digger or who's looking for green card when dating or marrying a foreigner, I'm in a well off family & I'm dating a foreigner. My friend is half filipina and half korean, her mother is filipina who's wealthy here in the philippines.
“Not yet” 🗿
this is same for all asian women in asia, if they are well off, they will marry fellow ethnic men. chinese to chinese filipino to filipino thai to thai unfortunately reality is tough so many choose to marry white man to escape poverty
This is not really a new trend, so it would be great if it could be put into context. You say there was 15,000 foreign marriages registered in the Philippine's last year, which seems to be about
western american women are more likely to marry outside of culture...10% of total marriage according to pew research...
Yes. It's a drop in the bucket. An overwhelming majority of Filipinas go for locals although some of them are really attracted to foreigners and open to relationships with them. Filipinas have options. Mixed marriages have been happening for decades. It's not new. These are getting more attention nowadays because of the Passport Bro hype. It does not help that western women vloggers are also mentioning Filipinas when they try to shame and denigrate Passport Bros.
@@daxdizon4591and this western passport bro became hype at the time when Asian pop culture is dominating the country... A filipina would rather date a filipino or korean than a western man... this is the funny part
I think because many Filipina can speak English, foreigner can talk to them easily and build relationship. Language is the first thing that connect people. I noticed that among Southeast Asians, Filipinos are the most fluent in English along with Singaporean
Disagree, Thailand is way more popular a destination for foreign men, factually, and Thai's basically speak 0 English.
Not only Philippines, also Indians tend to be speak English fluently.

Feeling that Indian-Filipino connection 😊
I completely understand wanting financial security from your partner so long as that's not the only reason you get with him. Unless he's just trying to use you then use him too, get the bag and green card sis. But if he's a good man that's being serious with you don't take advantage of him actually give him a chance to be a good man for you.
In fact, marriage is essentially a transaction, taking what is needed from each other，，
Because Western are wealthy they don't need to work. They can afford maids and butlers. Whereas southeast Asians Women and black African women have to work.

@@passportbrolife Only 1.3% of registered marriages in 2021 are mixed. 98.6% were between a Filipino and a Filipina.
@@passportbrolifeYet American Womens rarely dated or married Asians. most are Men, plus American Women have a bad reputation.
The Philippines still carries the caste system from Spain. The differences between poor, middle, and rich are titanic. A lot are even genetically different. Very different speech and accents. Dating a middle or upper class girl is a totally different thing. They can travel the world no issue and don't need your green card. They don't even want to leave the Philippines permanently. At a certain income, life in the Philippines is better than 1st world countries. Not so many Western men go for these Filipinas, though. The find the poor girls more pretty.
To be fair class doesn't make a woman more attractive, most foreigners have no issues dating lower class women if they look the same as upper class women.
@@Cxs1a3 They don't look the same in most cases. The breeding over centuries makes a big difference.
They're all the same to non-South East As;ans, they may look better to South-East As;ans, but to other cultures, it's all the same. I'll give you another example, As;ans ( East, South-East, South, doesn't matter) think an average blonde girl looks like a celebrity, even though in her culture , everyone understands she is just average at best.
@@Cxs1a3 That's true. I saw that Japan has a Slavic beauty queen, but she looks totally average.
Nothing meant to be insulting. That's just what people like. You could call it God's way. The lower class Asians very rarely have the looks to marry up. And often don't have the education to get a good job. So the Western man seeking them specifically is a God send. And the Western man is so fed up with BS. He just wants someone to be sweet on him and manage the household and give him peace. It's like some mysterious way of God pulling them together. And an average or ugly Western guy with an average or ugly Asian tend to have good looking kids. A lot become models.
But ask any Asian people, and they say, "Why the hell they like those girls? She's ugly. She has scars. She doesn't have a good job." But this is like another mystery work of God. Because the Western men are not competing with the Asian men. No one is butting heads. Everybody can win!
In As'an cultures, looks alone is often not enough for a woman to marry a rich guy. Looks alone may get you 1 nite stands, secs, dates, becoming the mistress, but in terms of marriage, society looks down on poor girIs, even if she's good looking. Most rich As;an guys I know marry average-looking rich girls, because that's what society respects, society does not respect hot poor girls.
Western culture is different, western culture sheets on rich girls who aren't pretty and hold up poor hot girls on a pedestal. And that is why a lot more wite guys marry girls from poor countries, because their culture is a lot more open to that, whereas As'ans look down on people who do that.
Its all about the money
it always a transaction.. CHINA, INDIA, KOREA basically most of ASIAN CULTURE are like this!
