TheMason Posted December 2, 2009 Posted December 2, 2009 (edited) This is the Philippines....aren't you supposed to treat us for your birthday?Absolutely! That's the custom. I learned the hard way..groan.Pete of New HampshireI made what I thought was a very equitable and culturally sensitive proposition to my wife about birthdays. As a Filipina, we'd celebrate her birthday according to Filipino customs. As a Kano, we'd celebrate mine according to American customs. She agreed without hesitation. However, after thinking about it for a few minutes she rescinded her agreement and punched me instead. :yes: Edited December 2, 2009 by TheMason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
