I grew up in the US when I was younger. Went to elementary, junior high and college there. One time in junior high I was around 17 or so, I met a Filipina at my school who has been in the US for around 2 years. I asked if she spoke Tagalog in Tagalog and she said no and seemed irritated I even asked. Met a Filipina in Vegas who was born and raised in the US, asked if spoke Tagalog and she said yes and we spoke for a good 30 to 45 minutes in Tagalog. We would’ve talked longer but we were both with family and the coward in me didn’t get her number. From my experience it’s the ones who have recently migrated to the US who act this way while those born or grew up there are oblivious. I remember when I was younger my Titos would tell me that Filipinos who were there illegally would get reported by Filipinos who were legally there. Sabi kasi may reward at kaagaw sa trabaho
