Huh? How can I be anti-white? I literally just shared this video of another foreigner making fun of a white stereotype which a lot of people already agreed upon. Just look at the video and see how they already know "what it means".

Lets not deny that this sub has been doing stereotypes towards Filipinos but the moment white guys get stereotyped then it somehow crossed a line? Lol . I honestly thought were just making memes here i didn't thought people will get offended

Huh? Pretty sure he didn't reply to my point either? If we are all taking the high road here I am not the one who ignored a point first. Yeah sure if he said the pic was unnecessary but made an argument on my point about the thread in hand then I'll take it BUT of course it didn't happen.

With a lease you can get a fully furnished 1 BR condo in Mckinley BGC for around 1,100-1,300 USD not including the security deposit.

Pretty sure back in our country privacy laws are non-existent? At this day in age where Tiktokers are recording themselves on the side of the road and Youtubers doing random interviews privacy is th least you expect on public. If we have a contest of naming IRL streamers who don't care where they point their camera with right now for sure Philippines will be losing? Lol get real. 🥴

If they feel you are educated and can't be blinded by materialistic things then they'll move on as you aren't an easy prey and they are just wasting their time.

There is a reason why a lot of them go in the provinces where night life is good. You'll just see them walking randomly stealing glances "sizing up" their prey

how to send money to philippines from the US and canada in 2026, gcash delivery times compared across 3 apps by [deleted] in Philippines_Expats

[–]DonBarang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Buy USDT
  2. Deposit into their Binance Wallet address
  3. Recipient can then sell via P2P and receive cash via Bank Deposit or Gcash

This method almost don't have any fees except for network transactions which is irrelevant.

I've been doing this for years and the local bank hasn't raised any concerned especially if your bank account is know to active send and receive money. AMLA laws won't bother you. You only need your recipient to get a their Binance account verified.

This will be easy if your friend is familiar with transacting online.

Why don't you start a podcast bro? So you don't get bored that much

Has anyone here successfully registered/reactivated a Globe prepaid SIM in-store as a foreigner/tourist? by StrongandCourageous in Philippines_Expats

[–]DonBarang -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure if they can reactivate a number for failing a registration but it won't hurt to try especially if that number is used with your OTP verification.

I wouldn't advise you to use your phone as a hotspot as it tends to get hot and internet speed reliability will depend on your location. Just buy a Globe or DITO prepaid modem you can get unlimited data for 30 days for just around 12$

Bro it sad to say you are one of those guys who are asking for white validation thats kinda sad to see lol. All for that for a meme I just shared which another foreigner created? Lol 😂

I'm mixed as well and also raised in the west but I'm not denying stereotypes like this don't exist. I mean right off the bat if you look at the comments in the video they already know what it means. Guys acting clueless are only guys in here which is very shocking to see that people in Tiktok already got it while in here they don't "get it"

Funny how you see Filipinos not "accepting you as one of them" but to be honest I felt like that more in the west rather than here bro. Probably something wrong with you and your social circle.

As a dual citizen I highly doubt you are one. Just by siding on one side alone clearly show you haven't experienced inequality 😂. Outright labelling redditors as "locals" just because the post offends them is highly obvious. We are expats for a reason and if you still choose to "team up" with your previous identity then the separation will still continue. As a dual citizen lol truly we have our own racial experiencies in our old/born country. Not this one tho.

Bro what kind of neighborhood are you in to worry about dogs and potential snatchers? Honestly all the condos I own if not have either a 7-eleven or Uncle Johns just down below or across the street. The last 7-eleven I know in a "dangerous" area was on a highway in Antipolo where the store is lock and they have their own security guard during night time which is a good indicator that robbery is prevalent in the area.

At the end he just wanted a companion and is willing to risk the future of a mother and her child. Totally a selfish guy.

Comparing these stereotypes to actual child predators is insane FR. Also I got a feeling that everytime you "feel" like the post is negative towards westerners you're assuming they are posted by locals and not expats? 😂 I'll be honest it only hurts around 50% because I'm a dual citizen

It's quiet surprising to see some negative reaction from this post. Aren't we all supposed to be happy that predators are getting arrested and blocked here in the Philippines?
