If there is a chance she is going to be a significant part of my life, the last thing I want is for you perverts to comment on her pictures. On the other side of the coin, if she is a scam and I hit the bars, I won't be able to post my perverted pictures of the ladies I meet in the bars. |

You don't even need to hit the bars, decent and beautiful ladies are everywhere in Manila. Just walking around, you'll need 360 vision.

If I get scammed, I will be hitting the bars, just so I can have a couple of drinks and relax of course, then I can walk around Manila. |

Was just telling my wife that when we get there on next trip I wanted to spend some time with my buddies I have over there. She said it is fine, but I have to take one of her brothers or an approved cousin with me so that I do not get "in trouble" (meaning that she does not trust the other Filipina women and knows that there are some that will chase after me because I am a white guy)

We should also start a list of things to try in Manila. Couple friendly of course. Try Lechon. The best pork roast i ever had. Enjoy the "spaghetti" at Jollibee. Visit Greenhills shopping center. Thousands of little shops selling everything cheap. Watch in amazement as a local beats foreigners at pool while only using one of his arms and legs. Ride in a jeepney. Bribe a cop. Visit a white sand beach. The darker sand beaches just don't work. |

Before she and I were dating, I would ride around on the motorcycle alone and women would step out into the road and stop me just to introduce themselves.
They love white skin and even themselves do everything they can to avoid getting any sun so that they also look as white as possible. My wife likes to touch my nose since it is not flat, like a Filipino nose. She (as well as the others) think a big nose is sexy And to be a little "tambok" or fat is considered good looking as well. That means you have plenty to eat and not always hungry. On the flip side...they do not like a beard or mustache. It is thought to be dirty. I keep a beard even though my wife does not like it. I trim it down, but I hate shaving so much that I prefer to keep my facial hair. |

The P-I is corrupt. Even down to the street cop. So, folks joke about it at times. Sometimes it happens like this; the street cop sees a mark, stops the mark, the mark provides a few pesos. The street cop forgets he saw a violation. There are other ways the cop makes money on the side. Kidnapping; see Korean business owner in Angeles City earlier this year. "Protection", involvement in the drug business, and other assorted ways I'm sure that provide a nice home and new vehicle(s) that are sometimes seen on a very low relative to Western standards salary. I just thought of the best corrupt way to make money. This one is just a general corruption that doesn't involve the po-po. A friend of mine lived past Angeles University. Traffic is often very heavy there. Tuition is soon due for students, an important part to know here. My friend is on his way home once again with heavy traffic near the school and his speed is low. A young lady sees an American driving an American car. She steps out in front of him. He can't stop in time and hits her. It's a minor car vs pedestrian accident. He gives her a few pesos, kind words, and all is ok, right? Wrong. She sues him in local court. What she didn't know is we all had made friends with a local connection. Ben. Ben was actually a decent fella that'd made good through working with the base providing goods and services. My friend contacts Ben. Ben says, "Walang Problema". A few days later the charges disappear, the girl disappears, and "Walang Problema". The girl doesn't bother my friend for money again. More to the story, sadness involving Ben. Ben went to sleep one night back in '88 and didn't wake up. He must've had a heart attack during his sleep time. |
