Mga Pinay, mga kapatid! Nasaan na kayo? Tulong! Prove natin na mali ang sinasabi ng babaeng ito! Pinays are smart, girl. We know about the rules here. They are basically the same with the laws in the Philippines when it comes to support and everything. It's common knowledge that if your husband dumps you for another girl and you have kids, you and your kids are entitled to support. It's mandated by the laws, you know, we read books too!

Philippines	JUST CURIOUS	QUOTE (Donna A @ Jan 18 2009, 07:24 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> since not all men in america are running to the philipeans for a wife i would say that not all men in the united states are thinking the same as these men here. there are alot of men who are happy with the american woman so that means there is nothing wrong with us at all. also the men here have grown up in the same society as we have so if they call us spoiled then what are they then? not only american woman can be spoiled u know. the reason the woman here act the way they do is because of how they were treated in the past. the woman stayed home, raised the man's kids, cooked, cleaned, ironed her husbands clothes...etc and then man was out sleeping with his secretary...secretary gets pregnant....man dumps wife for his lover...leaving wife and kids to defend themself....thus, womans rights evolved. courts started siding with the woman because she was doing her job as a wife....man broke up the marriege with cheating...woman gets alimony....man gets mad because he has to support his ex and kids....man hate american woman for that. example 2. woman supports man while he go gets his education and then dumps wife when he gets his degree. yes believe it or not...this is what changed the woman back in the day. they had to become self sufficient for her own sake as well as her kids. sorry guys...cant change history. sorry girls from philipeans....these men probably are afraid of american woman as they are a threat to his earnings where u girls dont know the rules here in the united states and they feel safe that if u divorse them u wont get half of what they make. they will threaten to send u back to the philipeans and out of fear u wont do anything to hurt them.

Philippines	JUST CURIOUS	QUOTE (Anna and Jeff @ Jan 17 2009, 06:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually if your family was in the conditions that are in the Philippines I would think you would want to send money to them. I would support your decision. So that argument is completely weightless. Go to the Philippines and see the conditions then you will know. They are the hardest working people I have ever seen in my life. They believe in capitalism and will try to make money to live. Despite hard work many live in absolute poverty. You are taking this chance to find criticism while at the same time claiming to be a victim of American attitudes in men. Just curious, would you say you are the typical American woman? -- Rocky P.S.

Philippines	Communication with your (long distance) partner	QUOTE (Matt & Jovy @ Jun 27 2009, 08:51 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Iam not sure if there is already a topic about this..but anyway, I just want to share mine. A long distance relationship is really hard and a constant communication with my fiance really helps me to survive for 6 years. 1. We talk every weekend/holidays on chat (I always make sure I dont have a schedule in the afternoon). 2. I call him everyday to wake him up. We chat on phone while he`s driving to work. 3. He calls me everyday after he leaves work and while driving on his way home. 4. We send each other text messages in the evening before he goes to bed or when I/he is out of the house (party, malls, school, etc.) 5. For 4 years we sent each other emails tons. We stop now because we prefer communications on phone. 6. I even communicate with him even while he`s sleeping. He just leaves his webcam open so I can watch/hear (love to hear his snores, makes me fall asleep) him while he`s sleeping and he does the same thing while I`m sleeping. He`s always telling me that he talks to me more than he does with his family. Haha. I believe him. I know it is so expensive to make all the calls but hearing each other`s voice helps us to feel that there`s not much distance between us. It shouldn`t be talking about different/new topics because we usually run out of those, but we`re always reminding how much we love/miss and care for each other. What really matters is the happiness that we feel every time we hear/see (webcam) each other for as often as we can. Well, hope to hear from you guys. For 6 years? Wow, it's been a long journey for you.	Rocky_nBullwinkle	Female	Philippines	2009-06-27 20:35:00

Philippines	Age Difference	QUOTE (Robert E Lee @ Jun 6 2009, 08:03 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I reckon there ain't no problem during the interview. However, a real problem will exist in married life. How can a young woman live with somebody old enough to be her grandaddy or daddy? Will they ever be seen together in public? I reckon not! The young woman must be ashamed of being seen with her daddy or grandaddy. Be realistic, girls and old men! No problem for Mr. Bill. He just introduces me as his daughter. I hate it! (Except when we are playing ) I still think a lot has to do with how the Pinay presents herself at the interview. They know you are nervous, but if they feel something is not quite right, they will give the fiancee the third degree. Not much you can do, other than to make sure the future bride knows everything the CO knows about the future groom. If she does not know, make sure she says so, don't guess, because the CO probably knows the real answer. Edited by Rocky_nBullwinkle, 06 June 2009 - 10:18 AM.

Philippines	Age Difference	QUOTE (Steve and Grace @ Jun 5 2009, 04:45 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hello everyone! I know there's a poll somewhere on VJ about the age difference between filipinas and their husbands/fiances. I've seen it and saw many with large age gaps between the man and woman. I'm just curious. Did the consular officer bring this up during the interview? Did it cause anyone to get denied? I've been worrying about this the last couple of days. Her interview is June 16th. She just needs to do one more thing for her medical related to her recent surgery. We have a legitimate relationship and proof of such for three and half years now. Maybe I'm just worried about nothing but any reassurance would make it easier to sleep at night. I really don't want anymore delays. Thanks everyone and good luck with your visa journey. Best wishes, Grace & Steven It depends on the age and how experienced the girl is. If she is barely passed being a teenager, fresh from the barrio, and can hardly speak English, and the guy is like 60 years old, grizzled and gray, chances are fairly good you might get a fraud investigation.

Philippines	What are your plans for this weekend?	QUOTE (mariquita linda @ Jul 2 2009, 08:00 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Fourth of July is upon us and almost everyone won’t be working Friday and that makes this weekend a long one. No doubt many of us will fire up the grill and enjoy the steak and potatoes and pancit and chardonnay and wait for the skies to be glittered with fireworks as nighttime falls. Some of us might go the beach or to the casino or to the amusement park or what have you. As for me, my husband and I are driving to San Diego to temporarily escape from the heat of the desert sun. We’ll stop by the Indian casinos on the way and our sights are also set on Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. We’ll also visit his cousin who just came in from Nueva Ecija. We also yearn for a short drive to Baja from San Diego but I might not be able to reenter the US without the proper papers. How about you? What will you be doing to pass the time and celebrate America’s birthday? Good for you. This is the second 4th of July for me. I have work on Saturday until 11pm. We might go and see the fireworks Friday night.	Rocky_nBullwinkle	Female	Philippines	2009-07-03 01:44:00

San Francisco's Castro District is where you can find most of the opponents of Prop 8, such as Michael Jackson's ghost, Rosie O'Donnell and Perez Hilton. Do you think Michael Jackson's ghost is still hanging out there?	Rocky_nBullwinkle	Female	Philippines	2009-07-10 10:30:00

Philippines	San Francisco for honeymoon	QUOTE (MikeeLucyForever @ Jul 9 2009, 02:52 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We are just using the car one day so we can drive up to Santa Rosa. The two days in San Fran will be public transport or foot. Thanks! QUOTE (DouglasFiel @ Jul 9 2009, 05:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> QUOTE (MikeeLucyForever @ Jul 9 2009, 01:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hello VJers, Me and my husband will be having our delayed honeymoon in San Francisco this coming August. I am looking forward for this trip because I really want to see the San Francisco bridge and the Alcatraz while my husband wants to go the wine country. What other parts of this state that we must see guys? We'll rent a car at the airport but we'll be there for 3 days only. Any suggestion's appreciated. If you have the time and looking for a bit of nature...A drive north up the coastal highway (Highway 1) with a return trip through the highway of the Giants (Giant Redwood Forest) is a nice day trip. Another,,, good trip if crossing the GoldenGate is to spend part of the day in Sausalito. It is just across the bridge on the right. Of course,,, Food, Food, Food... China Town, Little Italy, and of course getting a little homesick Daly City is home to lots of Filipinos including the presense of a Goldilocks. Also, keep in mind. Depending on where you plan to spend your time... It is very expensive to park around SF and usually quicker and easier to use public transportation. When traveling on business there we usually rent a car during the weekends when we do the day trips. And use the subway/trolley/taxi during the week around the Warf and Downtown areas. Enjoy, Santa Rosa is a nice place. There's a lot of wineries there and some state parks. Windsor is close to Santa Rosa. You might want to visit the Kendall Jackson Winery and the Charles Schulz Air Musem close to 101.	Rocky_nBullwinkle	Female	Philippines	2009-07-09 17:40:00
