Filipinas Marry Foreigners for Money, Not Love?

[hubag bohol]

Just marry first and love will follow....

If love will not follow, it is best to just leave it behind... 

[hubag bohol]

I remember  when I was then a bank teller, there was this foreigner who transacted me together with his Filipina wife, far from behind, the family and relatives of the wife who’re also inside the bank lobby  (maybe they needed  back-up  )..  and  I don’t know if that foreigner was just joking as  he said “ you know marrying a Filipina is just like marrying the whole tribe” I nodded my head with a smile and replied, “you knew, you’re much lucky, because Filipina women are caring and loving to the max… (labi na'g bol-anon..   ).. he smiled too,  I don't know if it was a sign of affirmation..   (gwatsi pod tong tawhana mora’g  taga TB..)

He he, kon magkalisod naa pay friendly neighboring tribes...

I know of many Filipinas who married Japanese for the visa, so they could work in Japan and earn money. And some even had to pay their supposed Japanese husbands a monthly allowance until they could get permanent residency. So they did marry Japanese for money--to pay their husbands.

[islander]

so some japanese men are in the business too...

i've heard some stories about this same business in the u.s. too.  and over ten years ago in germany, this modus operandi involved indian women more than filipino women.  imagine a 25-year-old german guy marrying fortyish indian women and divorcing them one after the other.  it was business.  there were givers and there were takers, and money changed hands.

Yes, for money......, and love will follow if there is always money.

In reality not all foreigners are rich..There's a lot of Filipinos who got more money than foreigners..Some Filipina has other reason to marry a foreigner,like hoping to work in another country to help the family in the Phil.and personally is more of a practical reason.We do have pride and worked our butt to help our relatives.To some who are judgemental please  give us some credit...If you really are meant for each other and that is how God help you pick your partner in life and blissfully happy,does it really  matter which comes first Love or money ?

If there is money, there will be followers aplenty--and love is not always the foremost of them...

that's the reason why social networking sites, chat sites and the likes are frequently flooded with women. they are using it as venue in looking for potential partners wherein the main target are foreigners. as far as i can recall, there were 2 incidents here in cebu that i know of wherein 2 cebuanas duped their male friends substantial amount of money where it reaches up to 11M in philippine money. their modus, befriended the male foreigner using a bogus name then they will become online lovers. after that they will ask assistance from their male friend in securing the needed visa but they need money.

I feel that many Filipinas are somewhat sexualized by many foreigners. I personally hold Filipinas above the fay. No other woman in the world can compare to the Filipina. None is as resilient in the work force, as loving, mother-like, a good wife, and as family oriented as a Filipina.

That is why I am sickened when I read reports of foreign men coming to the Philippines to take advantage of Filipinas sexually. Sure there are Filipinas who marry and go abroad, but the reasons for their doing so is their own and thus should not be talked about negatively. Who are not in their predicament, not in their shoes.

It is evident that the Asian Woman is the most sexualized by the mass media here in the United States. She is portrayed as submissive, sexual, and ready to please the husband. Pish Posh!

Pardon my reactive response. I don't take too kindly to the sexualization of my own people. Sure there are some black sheep out there, but that few should not represent the overwhelming majority.

Such double standard.  I am sure there are Filipino men marrying foreigners (for love , for money, or both).

Enough of this anti-Filipina bull-crap. I don't see alot of white women complaining about Russian-mail order brides etc.

We live in one world.

We all have one blood.

We all have one heart.

We all have One God.

We are all human beings.

Let's look past the limitations that keep us all apart.

We Are the World
By Michael Jackson


There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

We can't go on
Pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need

[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand

[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come
When we stand together as one

[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

You are right, Isles. No where in the bible does it say that God turned stone into bread.

However, in the bible, it says that when Jesus went to fast and pray in the desert for 40 days and 40 nights he was tempted by the devil.

Satan tempted Jesus Christ the Lord Our God to turn the stone into bread to prove his power.

Satan then tempted Jesus to jump off a cliff saying that the angels will catch him and he will not suffer death.

Jesus responded to Satan's foolish queries / requests by saying, “‘You shall worship the Lord your God
and him only shall you serve.’”


Reference: Matthew Chapter 4

[Lorenzo]

Matthew Chapter 4 Verse 1-11:


1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” 4 But he answered, “It is written,

“‘Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”

5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the pinnacle of the temple 6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,

“‘He will command his angels concerning you,’

and

“‘On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.’”

7 Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’” 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” 10 Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written,

“‘You shall worship the Lord your God
and him only shall you serve.’”

11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and were ministering to him.
