A thought before I go further

Before I go any further with this subject I want tell you why I am writing this series!
It is not to put down or insult Filipinas or the Philippines at all! This is more to open the eyes of the men that constantly get online and ask the obvious questions and then refuse to hear the answer.
I can certainly understand the socio-economic motivations for the ladies that take advantage of “love starved men” but I cannot understand the men themselves! Well maybe I can understand them and I hope to shed some light on this bizarre behavior also in this series.
I love the Philippines even with all of the problems the country currently has I beleive Philippines is a great country with even greater potential. These issues lead us into a political conversation and I refuse to talk Filipino politics as well as American politcs. I simply refuse to.
With that being said if you ever see me talking about politics on this Blog you can rest assured it is something that has really gotten under my skin and I just could not keep quiet about it.
I love the Filipino people and I realize they are “people” they are human. There is a cultural difference between Americans and Filipino and we as Americans need to recognize this. Many times, I beleive, we tend to forget this fact.
I don’t know why but I think it is because the Philippines is a largely english speaking and because of this we tend to forget that we are in another country.
Do Scammers exist over there YES!
But sometimes we tend to use the word “scam” for lack of a better word. I don’t know what we should call it but “scam” is many times the wrong the word for it. I actually believe that word is just pointing the blame away from where it really belongs.
But back to what I said earlier I do not have anything against Filipinas. When I write about scams and scammers I hope you can see that my content is directed towards the guys that refuse to see the signs.
If you are one of those men you need to STOP and listen to what others are telling you.
If you don’t listen then man up and take the responsibility for your stupidity!
