[QUOTE=Westcoast1;1242503]Why is it we can't seem to tuck our shirts in?[/QUOTE]This whole debate about clothing and appearance is actually quite interesting.
Historically, the Spanish required all of the indios (or locals) to leave their shirts out so as to identify themselves.
The aristocracy tucked their shirts in, which, incidentally, most of us do when we are back home in Australia, USA, UK or wherever.
A girl once told me that she knew I was a foreigner because my shirt was tucked into my trousers. The locals notice it.
[QUOTE=Frenzy3; 1242438]That is exactly my point it works for those who spend time here, not the guys who visit short time, it just there is a increase of guys coming to Cebu posting that the place suxs, they do not visit bars and just get messed around with lady boys and girls just wanting cash. I know you and more experienced guys are doing ok, and I do not expect any one to follow my advice, but hope the guys who do visit here and bomb out relise it not the place but their expectations from the lies they get from the scammers on the dating sites.
Hey I like a bit of free entertainment, but it going to far when guys fly here only to find out 80% of the girls do not exist, and then they missed out on the bars[/QUOTE]No argument from me Frenzy over your points made above.
I think we agree on the basic points. You and I just express ourselves in a different way
[QUOTE=Aussie Jo; 1242317]You might like to also set these for "calls" as well. Consider what Pinay1 will say when she sees that you had missed calls from "Pinay2-swallows","Pinay3-great tits" and two missed calls from "Pinay8-ms anal"
Just my experience.
AJ[/QUOTE]That reminds me of a friend, who has in his Phil phone, names like "Joey Preg","Janny Joey Preg Sis","Lila Joey Preg Sis","Lyn Joey Preg sister".
Seems that he got one girl pregnant, and then ended up screwing the other 3 sisters too, with the approval of the pregnant sister. And he was trying to remember who is who LOL
Incredible! This forum covers some amazing and arcane subject matter but whether or not to tuck has to be a subliminal first.
I never tuck in the tropics but always tuck in the west. Weird. I've never given much thought about it before but I guess in a tropical country it is cooler (climatically not temperamentally) to leave ones shirt outside ones trousers, and in The Philippines it is the done thing so one is following the accepted mores of the local populace. It adds a little more security as well as the back trousers pocket and wallet are covered.
I always think it looks a little bit anal when I see a foreigner with his shirt (and especially a t-shirt) tightly tucked into his trousers particularly if he is dressed in shorts. But maybe that is just laid back, little old me.

Anybody that comes to Philippines and can't get laid has bigger problems than his f*cking shirt being tucked in!

A girl once told me that she knew I was a foreigner because my shirt was tucked into my trousers. The locals notice it.[/QUOTE]This is a debate that will just go on and on and on and on. I have seen plenty of smelly slobs across the world. Wherever I am I am always freshly showered and shaved. For health reasons I walk the malls. That's what I'm doing is walking. I'm not looking for poontang nor do I have the delusional thoughts that I'm going to pick up some 19 year old student while doing my health walking. By the time those lazy girls are out of bed, I'm already back home from walking.
If I'm going to the market down the street then its shorts, flip flops, shirt out and baseball hat. If the gf and I are going to a nice lunch, dinner or party, I know how to dress. I'm a "suit" here in the USA and dress appropriately at least 4 days a week so I like dressing down when I can. Perhaps the distinguishing factor is no matter where I am at, is I am always freshly showered and shaved and smell good no matter how many times that may be required in a day. My clothes are always clean and crisp whether in a beach town or the CBD in Makati.
Some guys don't like to wear shorts. Others like to dress "up." Its all a personal choice but a couple of quick showers and shaves a day coupled with proper judgment and discretion on how to dress go a long way. But, if its a guy's choice to sleep with dogs, he's going to get fleas anyway.
I had a pm from a guy in his 50s divorced this is my reply I think guys comming to PI should read, when I wrote the last paragraph I thought I should post it here.
I am not a big writer. But first go AC for 10 days more bars and it the easy place to get a girl to stay with you. Do not DATY they are not always STD free. Same for condoms use them. You can buy Chinese Viagra for 40 peso a pill take 1-2 a day you will be like a teen age boy. Get fit before you come to PI walk, push and sit ups. I am 45 living here so being 50 you should have fun in pussy heaven.
One last thing do not sponsor a girl until you move here just pay them for sex there is always more girls and bar girls are only for fucking. My photo of girls are gf not bar girls. So be ready to harden up no bar girl died of starvation but many guys suicide due to handing over all their savings to a bar girl.
What is so wrong about wearing flip-flops away from the beach? It's certainly a look that is sported by many Asians, as well as westerners even when living back in the west.

"A small pussy can feed a large house". This is truly the attitude of many
Destitute families in Phils.
Newbies be very aware!
Keep in mind that the official dress of the Philippines is the barong, which is worn outside the pants.
This could infer that all filipinos would follow similar dress rules.

Any of you guys in the garment industry in Phillipines. Need some information, and aid in procuring some materials.

Gents,
Has anybody been to Samal Island? I will be rolling through Philippines in March. I am done with the Angeles seen.
[QUOTE=Undakovabrotha; 1245823]Gents,

However, Samal is quite large, and there are several resorts in many locations, so to get some useful information, your questions will have to be somewhat more focused.
How about an alternative point of view. Since you have a big belly and it costs lots of money to fill that and maintain it, you must have a big wallet.

[QUOTE=Westcoast1; 1242503]Could not have said it better myself.
Will respectfully disagree with Frenzy and possibly RK here just a bit, regarding the expat regular and the 2-week visiting warrior. Of the dozen or so white kano I saw in the coffee shops on the second floor (having coffee, chatting together, reading the paper) , the handful of other kano walking the mall at 11:30am, and the three kano I saw sitting in the hallway at the indoor / outdoor restaurant just inside the entrance, I'd say most or all are expats, not weekend warriors. I saw the same group of guys in those upstairs coffee shops more than one day in my one-week visit; hence I'd say they are regulars. With the exception of myself, all white foreigner in Ayala were 60+, all were overweight, all were wearing flip-flops, all were wearing shorts (oh! Those milk-white, vericose-veined legs!) , and only one had tucked his shirt tucked in. Remember Ron Howard movie,"Cocoon", with Wilford Brimley heading to the swimming pool in shorts, untucked hawaiian shirt, and flipflops? Ya, that's who was in those coffee shops. Its a given that at least half those guys are local expats. Nothing says,"I'm-going-to-ignore-everything-good-my-mama-taught-me-and-dress-poorly-here-like-I-would-never-dress-at-home-and-disrespect-your-culture" like flip-flops away from the beach. Well, possibly the shirt not tucked in to hide the beer belly. So, what is it among us, that makes us the ones not to clean up? Why can't we wear sandals (not flipflops)? Why is it we can't seem to tuck our shirts in? Why is it we don't seem to own any long pants (blue jeans would be fine)? Frenzy's right: we shoot ourselves in the foot.[/QUOTE]
