In Italy I was mistaken for a Japanese. Then, an Arab once told me I could pass for a Saudi. In the US, some people thought I was Mexican or Hispanic. I am proud to be ethnically Filipino.
Before 1985 Filipinos in the US were regarded as the 'INVISIBLE MINORITY' These were because of Asian features, Spanish family names, modern American first name with Brooklynese vocabulary.
'
@@piosian4196Agree with that. That was the “period” when using modern first names (given name) was the trend like the traditional Maria Anna Rodrigues became Mary Anne Rodrigues. Lol.
In the Philippines, most Filipinos assume every white to be "Americano". I guess in countries where the majority of color is different from a foreigner, depending on how they were raised or on their experience growing up, they have an assumption of where a person comes from. Its normal, imho, but the important thing is to respect where people come from and don't assume anything until you've met, talked and got to know them more.
I can't tell you the number of times I have been mistaken as either an Indian, Lebanese, Mexican and even Vietnamese 😂😂😂
Yes, they assumed at first I am from Mexico.
A Filipino here. I was in Bangkok and was always mistaken for a Thai. I was in Rome and a Mexican couple were taking to me in Spanish.
I was in Austria and a gentleman from Chile kept taking to me in Spanish. In Athens, a gentleman from the Dominican Republic invited me for lunch.
I can speak a little Spanish but am not a fluent Speaker. Funny thing is that I don't think I look like a Latino. I guess it's just because of my Spanish family name.
I'm a Filipino who went and traveled to France and was mistaken as Latino. Went to Spain and mistaken as Japanese because of my squinty eyes. Only in Malaysia and Singapore I was correctly recognized as Filipino.
I was in Italy was mistaken many times as Spanish.In NY mistaken many times as Chinese.
I'm an Anglo-Saxon Canadian married to an amazing Filipina I met at the University of British Columbia during our graduate studies. She has a Ph.D. in Food Science while mine is in Engineering. I think the bottom line here is to treat people with respect and dignity, regardless of their nationality, religion, gender, and physical features.
Your comment's got nothing to do with the topic of the video.🥴
Philippinnes are diversity country.. and im proud of my pilipino aeta brother and sister
i've always wondered why most people in batanes are taller than average filipinos until i realized that seafood is very accessible to them that it's been an important part of their diet, hence, seafood calcium helping develop their skeletal growth. their age-old tradition of drying fish is so important because they experience the most number of typhoons in the philippines. and what better way to enjoy those crunchy fried dried dorado and flying fish than during rainy/stormy days. batanes has always been in my bucket list.
I often wonder about the news that deep sea fishes are more likely to contain heavy metals. Pilipino ako at mahal ko ang lahi natin. Iyung binanggit ko ay ayon sa mga balita na nababasa ko sa mga pagsusuri sa ibang bansa,
Interesting.. dun pala mga type ko 😅
I think it has to do with it being a bit farther from the equator.
This is not true In the Visayas Region our staple food are mostly seafood and vegetables, yet we are shorter than the average Height of a Filipino. It is in the genes if your ancestors are tall then the children would be tall too.
But Japanese people are the highest consumers of fish in the world, but they are nowhere near the tallest.
Filipinos are a mixed of different races. I was in Malaysia to buy a slipper in a mall store and I was mistaken for a Japanese. In college, I was mistaken for a Chinese. Many of the present crap of Filipinos are mestizos, meaning half-foreigner like Fil-Am e.g. Ms. World Megan Young; Fil-Spanish e.g. Actress Marian Rivera, Family actors Gutierrez; Fil-German e.g. Ms. Universe Pia Wurztbach, Family actors Eigenmann; Fil-Japanese e.g. Actor Akihiro; Fil- Jordanian e.g. Yasser Marta; Fil-Polish e.g. Basketball player Robert Jaworski; Fil-Chinese e.g. Magnates Cojuangcos, Gotuacos, Gotianums, Sys, Yuchengcos, Angs, Tans, etc.; Fil- Russian e.g. Family actors Kookoritchin; Fil-Swedish e.g. Actress Cristine Reyes; Fil-Nigerian e.g. CJ Perez. AJ Edu; Fil-Indian Ms. Universe 3rd runner up Venus Raj.
Filipino people are beautiful!
I myself could say that Filipinos are very diverse.
Mabuhay Philippines Welcome And God Bless Every One
I have a brown skin filipino being always in the sea when i was young. But when i moved to Manila i became lighter skin. And when I stayed in Germany to work several years my skin became like of european not perfectly white but very light skin.
We love you beautiful all people, in and out. Welcome to our country where all the fun in the world is. Take care always, lez go!!!
Im Filipino but I have French and Cherokee ancestry. Ever since my teen years and my young adult life, I grew out and had long hair. Whats interesting is that people that doesnt really know my bakground would compliment my hair and say things out of the blue like, your hiar is so nice, its like native american hair. Then they try and guess my age and they are at the range of 35 to under 40. When I tell them that im 51, they immediately go to the skin features on how healthy and young my skin are. Thank you for this insightful video. Reason ive been looking is because 2 weeks ago, a colleague ask 'what are real Fiilipinos?'. He is of Koren and Japanese ancestry that also lived and worked in China for 10 years...
I had a long explanation. 😅..
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
nice
Asians look 10 years to 15 years younger than their age .
Filipinos are Beautiful
Common Filipino are Moreno (Brown), Meztizo (White), Chinito (more of a chinese japanese)
thank you most of Filipinos are pretty ❤️😘most filipino long hair
Hello Nelly how are you?
#ProudFilipino 💖❤👈☝️👌
I just got married with Swedish man but surprisingly his first impression to me as we see and met in person for the very first time here in the Philippines for our marriage,he can't believe as he said that I dont look like a typical Filipino😁 well,basically with my skintone actually, I have a fair white complexion....because I always told him during on our video calls dont trust all my photos because now days this phone camera is insanely crazy even I dont use those beauty apps😂..
I just have basic cheap and normal smartphone i said....My husband tells me I look like I have some kind of European blood especially after looking my mothers photos in black & white old photo, how my mother look like too, #nose and facial feature to be specific..not a single chance to be pure Filipino blood my husband said...Once again, Im proud Filipino being bisaya/Cebuano roots genes both parents!
Hi Nelly good to hear from you here again! Enjoy.
You can identify a Filipino not by how they look but how they sound when you let them sing karaoke! They may have Asian accents but when they sing English songs they leave the accent behind 😁 Filipinos are incredible singers!
I agree!
LOL. Nope, not my dad. Very thick accent.
Filipinos speaks English .
I live in Canada, I came here in my teens; 9 times out of 10 people think I'm Spanish. When i get darker in the summer some East Indians think I'm East Indian. I guess i could past for a Spanish or Latina. An older lady from Argentina thought I was Spanish and couldn't believe that I am not she even grabbed her husband and asked him what he thinks. She said she never made a mistake before and I' m the first. I look and sound ambiguous enough that when i went to the Philippines with my husband i have to speak English to him because he couldn't understand Filipino and people would speak Filipino about us and not realized that i can understand them. When i went to Divisoria the ladies would say that I am a foreigner and i would tell them I am not a foreigner and should not charge me higher than the locals.
We all have our beautiful uniqueness be it asian, european etc...love watching this channel. Thanks for this feature nelly.
The diversity in the looks of Filipinos comes from their varied ancestry: Southeast Asian, Polynesian, Chinese, Muslim, Spanish, and American.
Madeline shares my perspective. In our local context, distinguishing foreigners is often challenging due to a lack of exposure. We typically perceive them solely as foreigners, relying mainly on information from social media and mainstream media. This doesn't amount to discrimination (for us). For instance, when I encounter a white person, the first individuals who come to mind are often figures like Maria Carey and Britney Spears. Similarly, when I encounter black Americans, I may associate them with artists like Nicki Minaj or Cardi B. My initial impression of you is that you resemble a well-known personality that i admire so i might treat you like one. However, this isn't discriminatory. It's merely our limited ability to differentiate or recognize foreigners, especially when we've just met them once, in contrast to fellow Filipinos, whom we can often identify at a glance or by the tone of their voice, we can easily identify what their region of origin in the Philippines.
my grandparents on both sides came from different races. From my father, we have a Chinese grandpa and a Spanish grandma. From my mom's we have Japanese Abuela and Spanish Abuela. I don't have Filipino blood. But I am Filipino. 😍😍😍😍
Thanks for sharing!
Rare combinations. :-)
Hmmnnn!!".. very interesting facts for us" Filipinos!"...
Filipinos are like Puerto Ricans from the West Indies, diverse with different looks, dark skin light skin blond hair blue eyes, dark eye, brown and other colors and all kinds of hair types. I was born there, raised in NYC and last place I lived was in florida, now in the Philippines.
One word only. FRIENDLY....❤❤❤

Pretty good video, Nelly!
I am glad that you love it in the Philippines.
Nelly your skintone is now amazing
thank you so much for embracing our culture. I really appreciate it❤
When I worked in Middle East county they thought I was Chinese, when I visited South Korea and Malaysia they thought I was Japanese and when I visited Thailand & Cambodia they thought I was one of their citizen.😂 I'm Filipino but my mom great grandma was Chinese and my Dad great grandpa was Spanish.🤪
Average Filipinas are short and ordinary looking, unlike those winners in international beauty pageants . in the olden days, most Spaniards get married to chinese mestisas because of the latter's lighter complexion and their social and financial status
nice one. how's that for a lesson in genetics. What percent of your blood is Chinese, Spanish. The greater percentage is Filipino
Embrace eveeything as we are! ❤
I am always mistaken Indonesian. When I went to Europe I was mistaken as Italian, in Scotland 3 guys came to me and start talking in Italian. Here in Canada sometime mistaken as a Mexican or European
My filippino wife has kinda darker skin and I just love it . Reminds me of a chocolate chip cookie and those are good to eat .
Filo here, have 7 siblings. An older sister and I both brown skin, 2 sis have fair to light skin. 2 bros almost fair Chinese skins. The point is diversity is not uncommon among us filos.
When I went to Singapore, I greeted the immigration with "Good afternoon". . It's unusual, it's Malaysian..
Filipinos’ majority distinct look is Malay race look (Malays in Malasia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Myanmar ) The other Filipino “looks” are mix of Chinese, Caucasian and Middleeastern (Including Indian) but still there are some pure blood Filipinos who look like mixed Caucasian, middle eastern or Chinese. This look is common in Southeast Asian countries.
Good point. An example would be certain people in Cainta with darker skin, thick hair and high noses. When the British landed in the 1700s, some of their Sepoy (Indian tribe) soldiers deserted and intermarried with the locals. Some went to the Bicol region where cooking with coconut milk and chili were introduced.
do the dna test, the filipino predominately is more pure malay austronesian than neighboring country like indonesia that have a thai cambodian, some of them having indian dna, also papuan melanesian
Here in Palawan, some native Tagbanua have Chinita eyes and fair skin
Filipino born here. During my travels, I've been mistaken for a Chinese in Singapore, Malaysian during a cruise, a Thai in China. There are undoubtedly so many variations of Pinoys physical features because of the influences of the countries which invaded us, i.e. Spain, USA, Japan and foreigners who chose to live in the Philippines who eventually married Filipinos. Not forgetting the chinese who fled from communist china to settle in the Philippines as well.
Historically and aesthetically speaking we closely resemble the Indonesians physical features more than the other asian/orientals. Also with more and more foreigners choosing to retire in the Philippines, Pinoys physical features will acquire more various changes in the future. One thing that will never change though are the natural kindness and humbleness of Pinoys. Also the love of singing whether they have good singing voice or not especially during karaoke time. God bless the Philippines and its inhabitants. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
Filipinos, some have fair skin, brown, some dark skinned etc. Our skin & features can be attributed to the mixture of races that colonized the Philippines: Spaniards (400yrs), Chinese(commerce), American, etc. But one thing about Filipinos is that even if our parents are old & sickly, we take care of them until death. We never send them to nursing homes. Love of family is important & extended family included.We also treat friends like family.
Yup, very true especially when taking care of the aged. We don't let other people take care of our own.
NICE NELLY! UNITY in DIVERSITY! that is FILIPINO NATIONALTY!
But all in all Filipinos are , happy, loving and hospitable people and above all we love singing and dancing 😂
My wife had light brown skin tone and she is so stunning filipinas are just beautiful and gorgeous
I am Filipino but always mistakenly as indonesian for some reason and it's always a filipino also who ask me if i am an indonesian..😁😁😁😁 working in the middle East.. god bless miss nelly....😇😇😇😇
My three siblings and I are Filipino-American, so I can only speak to being of Filipino descent born and raised here in the U.S. (southern California). My parents were both born and raised in the Philippines...but my mom's paternal grandfather was from China...and my dad's paternal grandfather was from Spain. Us four "kids" (we're in our late-20s--early 30s) are fiercely proud of our Filipino heritage--even though we don't understand Tagalog. But we are always mistaken for Spanish, Mexican, Italian, Puerto Rican, Brazilian, or (for me) Hawaiian--because I have darker hair than my siblings. We're also fairly tall (our youngest sister is the shorty at 5'10"). We're gonna mix things up even more--we're all married to different-race spouses (a blue-eyed blonde, a Mexican-American, and a Korean-American. My kid sister did marry a fellow Filipino-American). You should see our kids! LOL!!
wow, your kids have enthicities all over the world. I am married to a Half-Chinese, my sister married a pure Filipino from Davao, but family name, we have a joke: how can a Tan be related to a Cortez? The answer: their mothers are sisters.
Your entire family has the best chances at survival.
hahaha you're correct Nelly , You really know and meet some of us filipinos.
Love you ❤ Nelly, our adopted daughter ❤
Hello, Nelly. There is a word from Dr. Myles Munroe saying that Citizenship, Race, and Ethnicity is all seen from within. No one and nobody can tell and see your Nationality, because it is from within. Filipinos for example are very diverse. Diverse in skin color, in height, in built, in ethnicity, in culture, in morale, in lifestyle, in religion, and in upbringing. But, if you ask them who they are, they will all say, they are Filipinos. The same is true for other countries. We welcome diversity and crush-out Racism.
very true, but not that much visible from outside, not like the neighboring country like thailand, malaysia and indonesia, it's simple to see different skin tone, type of hair(especially indonesia the more east you go the more curly and darker skin you got but maybe not too visible if the area are predominantly muslim cause of the way they worn) the bad thing about diversity is just the more diversity the nations the more conflict you easily get into
I'm a Chinese Filipino. Just want to say I enjoyed watching your vlog for the first time and to say thank you for loving our country and my fellow Filipinos. More power to you and your channel! God bless 🙏❤️🤗
Thank you so much!!
Im a Filipino born and raised in Hawaii, sometimes it feels like we are the majority here
try Guam
FYI-INDONESIANS IS ONE OF OUR ANCESTORS THRU LANDBRIDGES.
My parents ancestors were Chinese,Spanish and Germans.
The origin of the Filipinos are the Austroloids , whose descendants are the Aeta( black skin) and the Austronesians , whose descendants are the Malay( brown in color).The Aeta migrated to the Philippines 30,000 years ago while the Malay migrated 14,000 years ago.The Malay dominates the country and constitutes the ancestry of majority of the Filipinos today. Then the Spaniards colonized the country hence you have the mestizas and mestizos (half Spaniard half Filipino). After the Spaniards, the Americans colonized the country and that’s how the FilAm ( half American half Filipino) was borne. Of course before the Spaniards , the Chinese were already trading in the country hence you have the Tsinoy ( half Chinese half Filipino). Since the Filipinos are adventurous, some of them married Europeans , Africans, other Asians countries, Middle Easterners, Australians, British and so on. In short, the Filipinos are diverse which contradicts the Korean gentleman , who said the Filipinos are not diverse.
Koreans are the one who are not diverse .
thanks for the post Ma'am. I love it 💯%
You embrace everything you are also, Your a very Beautiful, intelligent woman, well spoken and empathetic.
It is true, somehow in appearance we are different but I can’t describe how but there is a certain angle or features that Filipinos have! I can say we are diverse but a Filipino can say who are Filipinos from the crowd.
Hi.. Nelly im watching your channel from bohol Philippines ❤
We love you . There are discrimination among Filipinos when it comes to the color of the skin and your status in the society. It is sad , but it is true. True to other countries , nationalities of the world. I live in USA and I have seen this kind of discrimination .
i showed my peruvian coworker a picture of my father and he was in awe coz my dad looks so peruvian and this peruvian coworker of mine looks a really handsome but short, like me, indonesian. oh and the the music at the of the video sounds so pilipino. i love it!
Are you from Mountain province area, Ifugao? Yung mga ancient Peruvian siguro napadpad dati sa Ifugao sila nagturo paano gumawa ng rice terraces dun.
Good topic Nelly!
Ethnically Filipinos share looks with Thai, Malay, Singh, Viet, but because the Philippines was a long time colony of Spain and the US and have traded with Chinese before that, physically our features are more diverse than our Asian neighbors.
true
Not quite….common Filipinos don’t look like Viets, Thais, and other indochinese countries.
@@amo_res9266 we do. I have already experienced Thai and Viet quite a number of times speaking to me in their language here in California because they mistake for one of their own. And my Vietnamese friend has been mistaken as Filipino a lot.
Filipinos are brown in color kayumanggi color of our skin...im full filipino blood...
Black brown hair!
I have brown eyes!
I'm Pinoy but mistakenly as a Thai 😅 When I was in Kuwait airport waiting for my flight to Dubai an Arab lady ask me if I'm from Thailand 😊I said no! I'm from Philippines,I'm Filipino 😊and she said oh Fi li pi no? with confused reaction 😅😅😅
We love you Nellie! Cheers!
you're goreous too miss nelly...God bless u,more power..thanks for loving the PH. ^_^
Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia had common ancestry, the Malay race.
the malay race is including thai, some part of burma and cambodia, if you talking about language group it's austronesian, austroasiatic is also malay but having a different language groups
The Korean who wept to Cebu found that Filipino looks like korean probably he saw a korean living in Cebu
They are nice looking easygoing people!👍🏽
You would know in our smiles, happy and very diverse people ❤🇵🇭
Hi, Lady Nelly interesting topic...
Here in Norway they mistaken me as vietnamese or a thai.......but when am in the Philippines people there sees me as a foreigner....quiet funny bcos they even starts to talk tagalog behind me saying that am from diff country , which i truly understood what they saying....they dont even have any clue that am a real PNOY- Tagalog na Tagalog.
Hahaha, hindi ka nila maibebenta. Paano kaya kung may magbiro na "ang baho ng kilikili mo" parang si @starabelar @ staralien lang mambuska sa Nanay niya hahaha
We do have very similar features with fellow South East Asians as majority of us are of Malay descent. The Leaders of the Kingdoms before the Spanish Occupation literally have cousins from other Royals in South East Asia. And same as with other South East Asian countries, a portion of the population also look like Chinese (not East Asian in general). The Chinese people has been doin business with Filipinos since time immemorial that seeing a Chinese speaking in a different language then suddenly switching to Filipino is very common. It's honestly hard to find a Filipino who's really of Filipino or just Malay descent. A lot have a mix of Chinese blood in them. At least that's how it is in my circle.
On the note that if you see a Euro-Asian person then most likely he/she is a Filipino is of course, because of the Spanish Occupation when most of these births were due to the oppressors violating our women. Some sad stories mixed into that origin of the Diverse-Filipino features.
I know a filipina vlogger that bright white, another thats dark brown, and several in between. Most have similar noses, including my grandsons who are half Filipino..
Indonesians and Malaysians are literally one of the first settlers in the Philippines so it's no surprise that we look very much like them.
Correction Indonesians and malaysian are not the first settlers here , is in our history that's the fact.
That is the common missed Conception of a filipino they thought that the first inhabitants or settlers are malaysian , Indonesians and Chinese but if you read your history diligently you know the fact that is not true .
First filipino settlers are closed related to taiwan Aborigines.
Which mean we are conquerors and a colonizers.
THE BEST VLOG 100%X INFINITY!!!
❤️❤️
I am also Filipino, i have chinese and spanish blood hence the lighter skin tone but I don't consider myself mistizo, those are exclusive for the obviously biracial looking Filipinos in my opinion. I was mistaken a lot of times as thai or Taiwanese. My sister is much fairer than me, she looks mistiza while my bro on the otherhand has a slightly darker tone than me.
now I remeber how me and my sisters have different facial features. My grandfather from my mother claims he has Japanese ancestry, my Grandmother from my mother's side also claims to have Spanish blood (freckles have shown up). From my Father's side also runs Spanish blood...none of us siblings look closely alike
The Philippines was under Spanish rule for nearly 400 years. There’s a heavy Spanish/Caucasian influence within the genotype with diverse phenotype hence the diverse look.
Love uou guys,God bless you all❤❤❤
I had a coworker that I thought was Filipino. He looked Filipino to me but he was Costa Rican. His name was Nelson Reyes. I started talking to him in tagalog but he interrupted and told me he was Costa Rican. You can't generalize Filipinos since Filipinos are a diverse mixed race.
Thailand talaga ka mukha natin lalo na sa kulay haha 😆
it depends dude if your from luzon you look more thai but if your from visayas or mindanao you look more malay
My wife is from Mindanao, and she has beautiful, dark-brown skin, straight, long black hair, and her smile lights up the entire western side of Mount Apo. She is 4'7" tall and weighs 97 lbs. We have been married for 7 years and she is my living doll. 🇺🇸🇵🇭
Congratulations. Treasure her, she's a gem.
Hi Nelly I think grey of MIHV is a very typical filipina beauty… 😮😊
Thats so true, ive recognize that also lol, but maybe please refrain from mentioning her? but i dnt know if its ok?
Thank you Nelly for appreciating us, Filipinos. 😊❤❤ Your words of appreciation change our perceptions especially to our skin and nose! 😅😊❤❤😊😊☺️😁😘🥰
Thank you too!
Nice video upload Nelly.😎😘
Thank you 🤗
Thank you so much ms nelly!
You are so welcome 🤗
Best... A newly know-how-event in ph tourism...
Salute you lady, nice,...
It is very interesting that you have a sperate channel for Filipinos... this is cool and well thought marketing move. plus Filipinos are always online....
I’m Filipino by ethnicity and I always thought I have a typical polynesian island look with some bit of Spanish from my mom’s side..but was surprised to be considered Chinese-looking by the Chinese! They always talk to me in their language. In my country, the Chinese look is considered attractive, so am flattered by that comparison. I dont have mono-lids..have very big eyes, long lashes and thick eyebrows..and I have body hair unlike the mongoloid race.
They have round faces,square, triangle, box, and oval faces. Most have beautiful long black hair, curly kinky and wavy hair. Most have full lips.
When I asked my students to guess my nationality, only those who checked my profile guessed it correctly 😆😆😆
I’m Filipino
My great grandfather in the mother side is Chinese
My great grandfather in the father side is Spanish
The rest in my blood could be Malaya-Irrendenta/ Maphilindo and Pacific Islander I guess
Some says I look Pacific Islander like Maori NZ
Some says I look like Mexican
Some says I look like Vietnamese
Some says I look half-white
When I was younger I was lighter skinned and they call me “tisoy kano” (like someone who is a half western caucasian)
So I would go outdoors more under the sun for my skin to be brownish
I don’t know how I look like actually 😊
I’m just me
a Filipino 😊
Hey there 🙂
same, part chinese, part spanish, but looks like hindi 😆 100% filipina..
i remember Nico Bolzico and Solenn Heusaff's children...what will become of Jeremy Jauncey and Pia Wurtchbachs kids, Rachelle Ann Go and husband's kid. Even Lea Salonga's daughter...Filipino blood have already been mixed with enthnicities all over the globe hence the diverse physical features.
Yes Indonesian and Filipinos look similar. Understandably, because Indonesians are our ancestors. They are the second wave of people who came to the Philippines very long time ago. First were the Aetas then Indonesians then the Malays. That resulted to the skin tone that varies from very dark to lighter ones. Mix that with the blood of Chinese and Arab traders of the distant past and later migration of Chinese and other Asians. To add to this mixing, are the Spanish and American colonization and Japanese invasion.
This is Otley Beyer's wave migration theory of Filipino ancestors that we all learned back in elementary. Unfortunately, there is no evidence of his theory. the more accepted theory now is the out of taiwan theory.
Who taught our ancestor how to build rice terraces?
@@aldrinvargas2593farming was brought by early settlers from taiwan. The origin of all Austronesian languages, (Filipino,indonesian, malagasy, maori, hawaiian, rapa nui) is also believed to come from the indigenous people of Taiwan

I love your videos
I Love This Your Content About Reaction Video 🫰🥰
As a Filipino, I find kababayan in the wild not by looks. You can't depend on looks. I find them by mannerisms and how they carry themselves.
Filipino is impossible and crazy genius.😮 😅
Most of us actually look almost identical to the rest of SEA.
How to know if one is a Filipino? Do the famous "psssst". If they turn, then that's a Pinoy.😊
Yell balot at the middle of the crowd, and they will respond "penoy"
😂
@@nicanortiongzhon8785😂😂😂
lol
As a Filipino man I have been asked whether I'm Arab or Indian. I proudly s ay I was born an raised as a Filipino... Admittedly I grew up in the UK..... LOL 😂
Nice!
I'm pure filipino but fellow filipino people always say I look like indian. indeed we're diverse 😅
Hello Ms Nelly.... Proud Filipino here😊
Hello 😊 nice to meet you!
