Fair enough Mike.... JJ isn't new though (??).... but I guess you're referring to other other post about dark skinned /slanted eyed women from the new person... which I personally found offensive (but that's OK)... I get the point... but this latest trend of treating Filipina's/Filipino's like a statistic/third person kind irks me... I'll go the penalty box on my own 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been going on since the 1800s Not exactly, considering the source of those immigrants since the 1800s was Europe, reflecting the host population...until 1965.

When i first moved here 26 years ago the family across the street from our shop had two family members in the USA. Over the years a total of 72 members of that family have now immigrated to the US. Not as easy or quick as it used to be. Brothers and sisters will take 15 years to process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
