      Devils like you who are now claiming racism doesn't exist are the cause of a lot of suffering in the world.
      But you pretend you can't see it right.
      Wait until the judgment day.
      You and your ancestors' eyes will be opened, and you will pay for your crimes that have hurt all mankind.

      I'm not bashing black men . You however are trying to say black men are being targeted more . Which is just not so . Nor can you prove this . Skin color has nothing to do with being taken advantage of . Choices and being ignorant is to blame . Just like in America . There's no race victims these days . Just bad choices

      @VanGlorious yes racism has and always will be . Yet in America there is more opportunity then anywhere else in the world . There's more racism against whites in the black communities then racism against blacks in the white communities .
      That being said . My response had nothing to do about race in general or blacks . It was about playing the victim mentality all over again in other countries . If you believe your a victim, you are one . Being taken advantage of isn't a skin problem . It's a sin problem . There are criminals everywhere in this world . They'll take advantage of any and all

    I know many of us brothers are coming to the Philippines in the hopes of making a change for the better in our world (life). The first thing we need to do is look in the mirror and be true to ourselves . Identify our flaws and bad habits then work on getting rid of them. Leave that low self esteem and Simping mentality at home. Remember we can’t change our world unless we change ourselves! If you’re looking to find a Filipina that will truly love you, first look for a Filipina that will truly respect you. No woman from any country will ever love a man that she doesn’t respect and they will never respect a man with low self esteem or a simp ( a yes man). Know your self worth and although it’s perfectly ok to say yes to your Filipina most of the time don’t ever be afraid to say NO! Raw but True talk✌🏾

    Calvin thanks for dropping some jewels on the melons of the brothas. SO many good points. The hardheadedness is a real thing. We think we are going to be an exception to whats going on around us and choose to not pay attention to the real. Us "good guys" will try and go out of our way to show that we are truly the good guy, and most of the time it leads to heavy unnecessary spending. We also get to come over here and live the good life and the woman is happy to come along for the ride. Can you blame em? Not really. Saying no is accepted alot more than many men think over here. The woman doesnt want to be left out and is happy to get a piece of the action. A small piece of the action to us is a whole pie to many of these women. After my first visit, I learned that I did not value myself as much as I should. You personally witnessed the first person I met over here and I have tried to do nothing but upgrade since from a dating standpoint. You don't have to settle brothas! The sooner you figure that out, the better off you will be. Dont allow yourself to be taken advantage of because you really dont have to.I was in the mall in Cebu on a date with a lady yesterday and she asked why is everyone looking at us? Then she says they think you are famous. Fellas, your presence alone here automatically gives you a ridiculous level of clout regardless what your self esteem level is. Just being here as a black man makes you eliminate many of the myths about you and make you that much more desirable.

      The main mistake most men do, both white and black men, is being to hasty and desperate.
      Specially when they feel desperate to be loved.
      Patience is the key.
      There is in reality no difference between blacks and whites when it comes to this.
      I lived in the Philippines for 8 months some years ago and I saw it time after time where desperate men of all colors from all sorts of countries, started to look for women the moment they left the airport.
      Even some trying to hit on girls in the airport....
      Often they expected the Filipina to have sex with them at first, second or third date and if that happened, they were stupid enough to think that this was a keeper.
      99% of all Filipina keepers would not even consider to do that, unless she is at least 30+ and usually have a kid or 3.
      Men need to learn a lot about the dating traditions most serious Filipinas that will become good wives/girlfriends follow, if they want to find a future wife/serious girlfriend.
      Serious men looking for serious love in the Philippines need to be patient and take their time and not jump on the first good looking Filipina that smiles to them.

    As a black man, one of the reasons we are scared to say no is because we think we wont get what we want, and this is true everywhere. This is not the west fellas, women get told no all the time and the world doesnt end and we still get what we want. I had to learn this in the Dominican republic, and a Dominican man told me.

    In my opinion, this is probably the best video you've made. A phillipina told a friend of mine that he should feel lucky to have her because she was a Phillipina and he was black. He dumped her! Calvin is right, many of these women think that we are desperate and will do anything for them. Sadly, many times it's true.

      When you pedalstalize other races of people, and they understand the racial hierarchy, they use that to their advantage. And black men don’t make it any better when they tell these women that they are better than black women. You can’t possibly think these people will have respect for you and you’re disrespecting the women from your own community.

    This was interesting. When I travel solo I tend to limit my interaction with Foreigners. I stick to the locals but watch from afar. It is back in the States that we talk about it and I did notice a pattern.
    1. I do see the overcompensation.
    2. I do see 9-5ers spending way too much only to return home and $truggle.
    3. I do see and hear folks admitting to doing too much while abroad or sending money blindly.
    That internalized racial oppression complex has folks messed up home and abroad.
    Dr. Carter G Woodson touched on this in "The Miseducation of the Negro".
    Good thought piece, Calvin!

    I’m a black woman. This is a very heart felt message. You make me miss my grandfather, he passed last year October. I’ve tried to warn BM, got a lot of push back. Got made fun of; personal attacks. As a person who has been overseas several times, I’ve seen and I’ve experienced and I’ve heard. My warnings came from a place of care and concern.
    On another note, you nailed it. I strongly believe that most blk people experience low self esteem. You grow up in a world that constantly tells you that you’re dumb, you’re ugly, you’re lazy….those thoughts live rent free in the mind. When you have low self esteem you place more value on things, I.e. car, clothes, and shoes and you also tend to place more value on men and/or women or communities that do not reflect your own. This is all the symptoms of social conditioning aka white supremacy

    Thanks, Big Bro'. That is REAL. Sometimes we don't realize how much we are damaged emotionally through our experiences over here in the States. . We've had 50 years of Oprah, Sally Jesse Raphael, and Rikki Lake trashing us on the shows and the internet has finally allowed us a voice. Stats prove all those negative sterotypes of us is a myth, but people don't care. So, yeah. We do believe we have something to prove and being gung ho to prove people wrong can work against us spectacularly. Black men more than any other racial group in America is raised to worship mom and women. We can be the biggest of simps sometimes. People who care will tell you the truth. The only reason it hurts is because we have a false sense of self that when contronted, shatters the image we had of ourselves. Pride is not our friend.

It doesn't sit right with me when a girl asks me for a large sum of money when she would ask a local man for maybe 1/10th of that money. I just met you a week ago and you're asking me for the local man's two week salary. I know I don't have to put up with it because I can find another one in a minute. And she will more than likely give up the draws after the first date at a cafe lol.

We are the most marginalized , dehumanize group of people on this planet. We have zero ally or friends, everybody take advantage because we are not love one another, and bring each other down. The Arabs, East Asian, Europeans, all take advantage of us just because we do not understand that we are the first Man in this According to many social scientist,and Antrhropologist. We taught all races of people trade, physics, mathematics, agriculture for thousands of years. Until we start respect ourselves, no one else will respect us.

It's all fine and good to say these girls bring so much loving and caring. But so are the foreign men bringing the loving and caring too. To put their hard-earned money into the pot along with yours is a REAL indicator she isn't going to take you to the cleaners.

Having spent 23 of the past 40 years overseas I see us BM of settling for less than we deserve. It is just like in the US I mostly see BM with some of the "not so good looking and under employed" women of another race. While the other races get the best looking and highest status BW. Must remember if a BM is overseas, he has something and must not settle for anything.

    What's good bother Cal, I agree with you 100%, a lot of brothers are being taken advantage of and we need to learn how to take advice and say no, if I feel something isn't right or don't like I say no in a heartbeat. Your never to old to learn and take advice and being aware is very very important here because they will test you to see how far they can go, I been living here for 12 years now and I had to learn and grow and that's how I became successful here, not everyone will reach that but for those who have we humbled ourselves and took advice good advice bro it helped me to live here stress free 99% of the time the 1% is petty stuff like traffic and sometimes how things move slow here but I'm getting use to it, but awesome topic brother and keep putting out useful gems. Peace ✌️

      Frank, I can appreciate your response. The truth of it all is your perception is your reality. I don't say that as a slight but more as some black insight. We as black men are not all what you see on BET. Even the hardest, coldest thug with an unlimited amount of credit on his "black card" will take care of business at home. The black man is always gonna take care of his family and his "ride or die" somehow there is a perception that we are strictly street and that is sad. Trust me, I got a master's degree in education but a phd in street cred. Point is, most people want to do what is perceived to be the right thing. And many brothas will truly overcompensate to debunk myths just like the one you articulated.

    Brother Calvin, if you do not know who you are, you will fall for anything.
    You are correct, many African American men are starting to break away from the chains (mental) of the history of the Americas and what has been done to us intentionally.
    The renewing of the mind will take some time. And because you speak truth and give knowledge everyone does not always have ears to hear. And because of that they will eat the fruits of their actions.
    Experience can be a hard and costly lesson, but know doubt is the best teacher.

They ( Philips) had an idea of who they thought we were. An this will follow us wear ever we go.

    Simple advice.
    Travel to the Philippines and live together with the locals for a lengthy period before you even consider dating a Filipina.
    Learn how the people are, their traditions and culture by talking much with the locals and when I talk about the locals, I am not talking about all the great looking 18-22 year old Filipinas.
    Spending most of your time in bars and/or with others from your own country is a total waste of time.
    There are way to many sad love sick puppies hanging for hours and hours in the bars in the Philippines.
    Often drinking themselves brave enough to ask a bargirl to have sex with them for some dollars/pesos.
    By talking much with locals and learning about the people, you will also learn what types of Filipinas you should try to date and what Filipinas you should avoid.
    You will also learn a lot about how to date a serious Filipina that can become a great wife/GF for you.
    If you spend much time with the locals and you don't act like a jerk by trying to get every Filipina in the area into your bed, or think you are so amazing because you have money and come from a western country, there is a good chance they will like you.
    And if they get to know you and like you, there is a good chance that they will hook you up with the type of serious Filipina you are looking for.
    It can be their niece, the daughter of a coworker or something similar.
    And as a bare minimum will they at least give you some advice on what to look for, what to avoid and how to best meet and date the type of Filipina you are looking for.
    If you are looking for something great that will last you the rest of your life, you need to invest the time needed to get it and not rush into something that will most likely only result in tears for you.
    Be serious, honest, respectful and patient.

    In my experience, we allow ourselves to be taken advantage of because there is this idea that we should help others whenever we can, without hesitation. Like you stated, we need to learn to say "No" sorry I can't and stick our decisions. Don't do anything that you will regret. Like I tell my filipina wife, "Regret it before you do and therefore you will not regret your decision."

    I will admit your experience is better than mine , but I've seen over generosity in all races. Ive been married to a Filipina for 22 years and i set the tone from the beginning. I'm a black man who don't think that any woman is doing me a favor by by being with me. I lived in the Philippines for 1 year, but i do admit you have more experience than i do.

    I didn't see that when I was there in May. Black men were the minority there for sure. I wish people would speak to the fact that so many men there are from other Nationalities. Russians, Germans, Koreans, Chinese, Japenese, and so many from England and Australia. It was rare to see another balck man. I was happy to see a black man and spoke to each and every one of them. Not saying that your vlog today is untrue, I just wish that you would do the same for the other races. Because what I seen was alot of what ur talking about here by them. Great channel and content and it helped me in certain ways when I went to the Philippines.
