[QUOTE=David_33;1692534]Sounds like a promotion to me.[/QUOTE]No shit, a guy with one post talking about a new wonderful website, man you must be a consultant.
And yes, it is a promotion in case someone still wonders.
(Sorry David, WR will vouch that under my sarcasm there is truly an innocent, loving and caring inner child, hopefully I will meet you soon in Lima).

Good to see on the board where you wish you were more often LOL.
David. What he says about himself is true but he fails to add he has been warned by police in the Arab world for trying to bring an assortment of goodies that the girls like (and you would consider tasteless and would congratulate the police force). The bit that is a lie is "innocent".
And if he arrives in Lima he is a fun guy trust me (we have had many a good time in the UAE).
[QUOTE=Marky77;1692475]I don't want anyone to know who I really am so that I can avoid all kinds of problems. I always avoid girls that I would meet at work, and even friend of friend that could easy track my name and place I live. That's why I really love to meet girls on dating sites. Fake name, fake nationality, fake everything and nobody knows me.
Recently I had lots of luck with a site called [URL]filipina.net[/URL]. Girls seems like waiting white guys to contact them. Weird enough at times I got the feeling I'm the only guy on the site. Have you guys tried it? I'm wondering if they keep intentionally a low ratio of guys on there and high number of girls, unlike site like dateinasia where girls are summered by guys messages and only ladyboys seems to be really available.[/QUOTE]Marky, DIA has been a goldmine for me and no ladyboys. Do you have any the Cup women on this website? Slim, stacked and attractive but no dicks.

Alternative is to re-read your post when you post it and you can edit it for around 15 or 20 minutes after posting.
Another common error is for guys to type "I D" and it comes out in the post as "I'd". Easy trick is to put a space between the I and the D and you get I D.

I didn't want to interrupt the discussion in the "General Info" thread so I will put this "interesting" (tongue-in-cheek) article here.

[URL]https://correctphilippines.org/pinoy_escapism/[/URL][/QUOTE]Excellent article RK. Thanks for the link. I wasn't familiar with the organization. My only disagreement with the Editor's Comments is that I doubt Filipinos, no matter the wretchedness of their situation, will ever "run amok" on the epic scale required to evince meaningful change. Granted that it's happened twice in the recent past, with no discernible improvement. Even the two Edsa "revolutions" however involved only a relatively small percentage of the population, and only in Manila. I believe that for the majority of Filipinos, that is for the 70 or 80 million who don't live in Metro Manila, the latter is irrelevant to their lives and they don't, for the most part, believe in the feasibility of meaningful change.
GE.
Make them believe they're happy by their singing and dancing. Put that "culture" on television nearly 24 hours a day. Some rice and dried fish, a full belly and a couple of Red Horses and you've got the country under control. Oh yeah, I forgot about some model airplane glue to sniff too. It took me 4 taxi drivers today to make it home from less than 1 km from my place today. Nobody wanted to use the meter, and all wanted at least twice the price. It's so sad because so many of the people are really very sweet, but corruption has gone beyond being pervasive. That's Manila.

[URL]https://correctphilippines.org/pinoy_escapism/[/URL][/QUOTE]Found the foreigner's comments spot on, good read. The guy who wrote the ensuing editorial seems to be indulging in some heavy-duty escapism, himself, if he believes that the masses are ever going to rise up and overthrow the elite here. Wishful thinking.
[QUOTE=RedKilt;1698412]Check out this post from Carlos Celdran. A well-known activist. [URL]https://correctphilippines.org/pinoy_escapism/[/URL][/QUOTE]Interesting read, but the same tripe we always see from people who live here on the "higher moral ground" of being an expat. Had this guy pegged at the statement "today is "Ash Wednesday" and when you see hookers with the mark of the cross, written in ash on their foreheads, whilst selling their bodies on the streets. It says something about how far off the rails this place has gone". Really? What does it say? Prostitutes can't show their Catholicism?
Lots and lots of petty gripes and sniping at the system, but I would challenge any of the expat critics to come up with any tangible practical solutions to the socioeconomic ills of this country. Slippery has a point when he says "Some rice and dried fish, a full belly and a couple of Red Horses and you've got the country under control. " The elite in the US (who own nearly as much portion of national wealth as the Big Families of the Philippines) are doing the same thing just at a slightly higher absolute standard: a Big Mac with fries, supersized with a couple Budweisers and the next episode of The Simpsons seems sufficient to make most Americans forget the fact that they are in the unequal condition they are. And Joe Six Pack has just as much odds of rising up against his pathetic condition as Juan Six Pack. For thought. Enjoy the Philippines, AsianRain.
Acid Rain is right on. All one has to do is watch the mouth move, see them in action and hold your nose. The stench will only get worse until the next bloody revolution or attempt at one.
