Every day or two duterte makes the philippines, in which I live, a less safe place for americans. I hate to leave here, but where can I go? I want to stay in asia and also spend less money than I would if I was still in US. And still get great, liberated girls

We need to remember that as expats we represent ourselves and our countries. I make it a point to be polite, courteous, and respectful of the laws and customs of the countries i visit. It That way, i can always look anyone in the eye and say i am proud to be an American.

Nice post.

Thank you Fred, It does not take much to be respectful when visiting a foreign country. It is a reflection of the country you represent. I am also reminded of photos of jails and prisons in these developing 3rd world countries. That alone should make one behave them self here.

Respect is of paramount importance here in Asia. How one behaves is a reflection of themselves and the country they come from.

I too find the OP's request for a country with great liberated girls distasteful.

I think you should leave now before Duterte sees your post and adds you to a list of UNDESIRABLES, particularly American. That is very unsavoury and demeaning to every asian girl or woman.

I'm sorry to hear about your apprehension. But for as long as you are not committing any crime. Nobody can be against you.

Maybe you should go home and buy a tent and live in a red light area in the Bronx.
It will be cheap, have all the "Liberated" ladies you want and you should be safe in your own country!

As a Filipina, I am offended by this statement. It would be fine if you are just looking for a good life here in the Philippines and that you really like it here, but this? This is just not a right reason to stay here.

I could not agree more!!!
I think he needs to return to the USA and live in the red light area there.
I am sure that will suppress his sexual desires.

Sex tourists and sexpats give all expats a bad name, so they're useless rubbish to you and about the same for us.

I don't believe this site is for this kind of rubbish. I also find it to be an offensive post!
There are plenty of porn sites out there.
Let's keep it off here!!!

I agree with you, Fred. The same way when I read a thread that a local scammed money off a foreign national, my sympathy is with the foreign national who got ripped off and at the same time ashamed for the local who did the act. Because if ever I decide living in another country I don't want to something like that to happen to me.

You might very well be a new poster, but you have that one bang on.
Sex adverts get deleted pretty quickly, but posts such as the OP tend to stay because they haven't actually broken any forum rules, even if their ideas are pretty crap to the rest of us.

I say as a Filipino to the OP: Whatever you are, just leave the Philippines! Go back to your own country. Never come back.

As an American: Shame on you! Here we are trying to convince the locals, including the current President, that we are moral, law-abiding citizens, and now you come along. You are an embarrassment to all of us decent Americans living here. Just leave!

As a mom: You are the likes I warn my children of: The monsters in this world are not the ones with sharp teeth and claws, but real people who will take advantage of you and eat you up alive inside. Please leave.

Do you have a daughter? You have a mom. Please do not disrespect them with what you are doing, and stop this perversion.

Since his last post was also his first, I think he's got the massage.
I'm not upset by this.

He is not the first and won't be the last to say or think those things of Filipinas. I was at immigration last week and there were 3 of 'them' ogling and saying salacious things about young women there. It makes my skin crawl at these predators when genuine people are here to have a genuine relationship and these mongrels show up like the Philippines is an American cattle ranch! Scummy people!

I guess that's what is sad about other foreign nationals who are in the country. They come here in the Philippines for that purpose when there are lots of reasons to be in this country (business, vacation, etc.).

I salute you guyz. Respect is very important.... I am grateful there are many of you who can advise people like him. Hope Filipinos will behave accordingly, too.

Enjoy your stay in the Philippines.

ALLRIGHT...

If there was a test, with no wrong answers, would it still be a test?

Someone has it wrong. His error will cause him to suffer. LIFE will teach him.

As for those that would judge one person, by the actions/attitudes of another, LIFE will teach them, as well.

I am not a teacher. I am not that arrogant. I am a student, evermore. If I expect others to show me patience, as I learn, I owe patience, as they learn...
