Not all Filipinas want to marry a foreigner. One of the reasons why many natives wanted to marry someone from a different racial background is because they wanted their children to be white, with blonde or brown hair, well chiseled nose, small pouted lips and blue or green-eyed. It is because of colonial mentality that persists up to this date. Most of them think that white skin and a typical Euro-American look is well praised in the Philippines. No wonder why most Filipinas marry white guys, than other nationalities.
See what I mean??? Filipino women still value WHITE MEN more than any other foreign nationalities. It is VERY RARE to find a Filipina engaged with an Arab, Asian, Black, Indian, Latino, etc.
It is because we are taught that Whites are superior over Filipinos. This type of mentality developed for over 400 years of western colonization. Some of them thought that being espoused to “ white gods” will cause them to bore demigods, like Hercules. Actually, some really become goddesses on earth:
Ms. Universe Pia Wurtzbach (Filipino-German)
Ms. World Megan Young ( Filipino-American)
Ms. Universe Catriona Gray ( Filipino-Australian)
Not all mixed-marriages are that bad. :)
