A 9gag woman explains how she worked in the Phillipines and was disgusted how the women there would sleep with any white guy for a half white child and asks what happens if the child looks more Filipino.

Pointy noses are considered attractive but so are chinky eyes. What other countries is it considered a good thing to have chinky eyes?

I dont disagre too much with what you’re saying but I think it’s more complicated than it seems on the surface. I’d actually argue that hapas are on top, above whites. Why do you think the people considered most attractive by Filipinos are Liza Soberano and James Reid? Neither could pass as white. People dont think Travis Kraft is more attractive. People dont think Kyle Jennerman is attractive at all. People dont regard Daniel Marsh as the most attractive even though he’s one of the few hapas who could pass as white. I think Filipinos subconsciously want someone who looks like they’re at least part Filipino. So hapas win socially over plain old white people.

Also, wouldnt you agree that in the upper classes there is a stigma against being seen with white men because they dont want to look like poor gold diggers. Thats a very real stigma.
