Age difference of fiance to fiancee?

[actob99 156]

It's showtime??? I like how some people are commenting on this topic, who have no idea of the culture, have never been to the Philippines, and definitely have not walked in the person's shoes they are insulting..

Ex. Topic based- when I was living in the Phils with my then fiancee, my fathwr wanted to come visit and see me and meet my wife. My father was single, 65 and dating back home. He had been to the Phils for a couple work trips back in the 80's when not such a good time to be there.

We went out for dinner, first remarks were- I can't believe all the older men with younger women. We had a very good discussion and he had his views. After 1 week of visiting my friends(locals and foreigners), talking with foreigners in the malls, and seeing it first hand he had a little different view. He himself waan't interested in filipina's

or a younger girl, he undersood and seen the relationships first hand. He met a doctor and a minester from the states and had conversations over this age difference topic. They noth were married yo filipinas and were extremely happy in their relationships. My dad got it.

Now he sees my relationship With my wife, although the

age gap isn't as big as some, she is still young. And he is very supportive and sees the true love that is there.

Filipina's have been said are the most loyal women in the world to their husbands and families. Why wouldn't I want the best of the best?

I dislike when women are clumped together, like Filipino women are all like this, American women are all like that etc...

I am very loyal to my husband and it has nothing to do with my nationality..

They are not a breed and they are certainly not like dogs which your language suggests. If a Filipina woman is awesome, it is not because some sort of geographical or genetic predisposition. You make them into mindless automatons, incapable of any thought or action beyond outside controlling forces. I picked a Filipina wife because they are the most loyal, just like my German Shepard! How can anyone not see that language or attitude as insulting? That is how you address animal breeds.

No one here posting has anything against Filipinas, Filipinos, the Philippines, or whatever. The age gap question has two sides: USC and Foreign Country X. People are perfectly capable of critiquing either side. My personal examination was regarding the USC side. That would be how you could compare 3 Vj forums-- via USC culture as a control.

Also, you down others for making assumptions when your whole critiques of other posters are based on assumptions. Anyone who disagrees with you has no idea about the country, culture, or anything else. Really? Have you done a quick background check on all of us during the down time of the thread?

It's not your choice by the way!! Unless you're one of those controlling people, sounds like it..

Doubt any 50,55,60 year old men would want a relationship with your AMERICAN daughter!!

actob99,

I like that too.

Ya know I did not read where he mentioned the word breed and I for sure did not get the impression he was talking of dogs... so really I don't understand your comment, maybe you just over here in the Philippine forum to stir things up?

I think she is referring to the fact that he is claiming that all Filipino are loyal.. like it is a common trait just because she is Filipino..

My friends are loyal also... but does not mean I consider them dogs...... sorry that dog don't hunt.

Wow, pretty sure I didn't say that.. But thanks for sharing!

Again!!! You are in a Phils regional discussion where there has been insulting remarks about filipina's.. A danish man being equiped and could break a filipina is not insulting to a filipina??? You didn't respond against that so I should ASSume you condone that?

I put it to you- post the same exact topic in the general discussion and lets see what transpires.. I will keep my remarks clean, educated with thought and not insulting.. Then lets see how it goes..

I agree with most of what you're saying. But there are also cultural differences between Americans, Filipinos, Canadians, Danishians etc. that shouldn't be ignore either. No matter...the only important issue is knowing and loving the person you're with, no matter the age.

Actually is wasn't meant as insulting to Filipinas, but rather just using exactly what you said and replacing it with different words. That wasn't the way I meant it and the fact that you think that I did is you just projecting your own insecurities about the size of your "weapon."

Stop fixating on my comment - it is saying a lot more about you than me at this point.

it just seems that some men on here, not just in this forum, seem to love their wife more for where she is from then who she is personally..

You said it! TOO LATE, i can repost it again if you like. And nowhere did any of my words have anything to do with that. You are rude and distasteful!

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Typical history for a topic like this:

1. Pinay make the best wives, not like them angry fat white women.
   
2. Topic closed. Do not restart this topic

*rolls eyes*

<--- Starts a topic about how outraged she is about objectification of Filipinas and other women on this forum

<---- Has part Filipina daughter

<---- Still talks to Filipino ex in laws every week even though she has been divorced for 4,5 years.

You think that I hate Filipinos or that I want to degrade Filipinas?

Weird because I think you do the same with your sweeping comments about them as if they don't have unique personalities or attributes.
