She looks like the models that the big chain malls and the big housing developers use in their newspaper ads to entice people to shop and buy. Look at the Toy Kingdom ads. Most of the kids there look white. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cultural. Of course change is afoot, as the (white-skinned) Koreans now occupy the fantasies of a younger generation of Filipinos. We're mere has-beens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettGC Posted December 19, 2018 Posted December 19, 2018 She was actually born and raised in Cairns, where I live right now. Went to Berklee music college in Boston. Why does someone who professes little interest in such things know this? Well the Short Angry One is back in Cairns with me and Miss Gray's win resounded loudly amongst the significant local Filipina population. And I mean loudly lol. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda ironic. Whites want to look tanned, and the already tanned want to look white. It's funny to watch my gf and her sister applying a bunch of the whitening stuff that won't work but the TV and radio stations say it will. They are used to me making fun of them and just ignore me now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I witnessed the ghastly truth only last week. . 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Old55 Posted December 20, 2018 Forum Support Posted December 20, 2018 So, if she had done something notorious while visiting Philippines would she be called out as a Filipino or a Foreigner? Funny how that works. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
