Traditional vs. Modern Filipino Women
Foreigners, particularly males, usually find
it hard to interact with Filipino women sometimes because they
do not know how to identify whether one is still very conservative and traditional
or already very modern and liberated, since some women are also sort of confused.
Some foreigners though would prefer those who are considered
modern and very open-minded women. Westerners are usually categorized as very
liberal and self-assured so they do not want those who would be a complete opposite
of what they believe in and would oppose to everything that they would say or
do. This set-up would just make matters worse and would also equate to a relationship
that has a lot of ups and downs. Some foreigners are also
easily turned off if the woman they are dating is very submissive and meek. They
find these kind of women very boring and uninteresting. They would feel like they
are just wasting their time. But there are also some men
from other countries who have a strong preference for those very conservative
and traditional Filipino women. For them, these traits are very
endearing and one-of-a-kind. They already have unconventional and strong-minded
women in their own countries and the very reason they are looking for love in
other places is that they do not think of these women as the marrying type. Traditional
and conservative women are genuine and pure. They are not superficial and what
they say and what they do are just what they really feel inside. They do not just
go with the flow. They do not find the need to jump on the bandwagon just to fit
in. They understand change, they appreciate developments and progress but all
of these do not mean that they have to give up their sense of self. Some
modern Filipino women change everything about them and copy those
women they see on TV and in magazines and throw everything away and they would
do everything to look like those gorgeous and very curvy Western women. Technically,
there is nothing bad about this. It is their way, their mind and their life. But
throwing everything away just to be someone whom you are not and turn your back
against culture, tradition, history, family and all the things that Filipinos
fought for with their lives are things that are worth thinking about. You have
to consider and then reconsider if what you are doing is something that would
give you happiness in the long run or just a passing trend or something like that. Traditional
Filipinas are not like this. They love who they are and acknowledging the fact
that whatever they do they would still be who they are at the end of the day.
These Filipinas are very proud of themselves and they do not have issues or insecurities.
Filipino women are already very beautiful
in their own little ways. They have their own charm that men from other countries
easily fall in love with and the Filipinas’ personality is also something
that would really make all their future husbands the happiest people in the world.
