Philippine culture - Why?
게시한 사람 Robert Haighton 속 필리핀 공개토론
Hi Arch Ien Tayamora, thanks for your response/reply.
I have learned to accept it although reluctantly. As you may know most people in the West - regardless of their situation - want to move up and move forward. They tend to "live" according to the "rules" of Maslow's pyramid (hierarchy of needs). But there are more differences. We dont do the Mano, we dont have "Utang na loob", we are far more self-driven (pls dont confuse that with being selfish), we dont procreate bec we need kids to take care of us when we are old. In fact, to be successfull, we dont even need our family(-members). The Philippine people are known for their hospitality and smiling all the time. If I were in their shoes, it would be rather difficult to do that bec I would be very worried. Exanple: having no job, the need to take care of partner and 6 kids and maybe even the need to take care of the extended family.
I see/saw a lot of single momsbec they were left (behind) by the biological father of the kids.Last but not least: Personally, I think the PH culture is far too dictating for me. Living together (unmarried) is sheer impossible, having no desire to procreate is looked upon as a crime. My happinness is not determined by marrying a woman and having one or more kids. My happinness lies far deeper than that. Procreating and marrying is easy.
