you are in far greater danger from the family with a philipina.

greater poverty, less to lose.

That's how I'm leaning.  But I know a Thai woman with two cousins whose older farang husbands have died under very suspicious circumstances.  If I remember correctly Britman mentioned a former girlfriend admitted to him she killed her farang husband.  I would have written his story off as unreliable had I not seen what I've seen with this Thai woman.

Not at all correct in Thailand things don't work out you simply walk away, in the Philippines if things don't work out it is a nightmare. Divorce in the Philippines is a dark ride into hell. 

Currently, there is no divorce in the Philippines, only Annulment, which is a very expensive dark ride into hell.

 

A foreign divorce can be recognized by a court in the Philippines, which takes about 2 years (if you're lucky), and it's expensive. My Ex-wife is going through this process as we speak and I had to travel to the Philippines to testify in court a few months ago. If anyone needs advice on this, send a message - I'm an expert LOL

 

It's only a problem if you get married in the Philippines. If you get married abroad and don't report the marriage to the PSA there are no problems at all.

Calling a Filipino a "flip" or a "flipper" is insulting in the extreme, even to me as I was married to a Filipino. It's the equivalent or even worse than a white boy using the N-word in the US.

Deal with it, snowflake.

 

I grew up in PI as an expat kid, speak Tagalog and know the culture. They do not give 2 flooks about being called flips.

 

So typical, white westerner projecting moral outrage lol.

 

Btw, 99.99% of flips would be very offended if you compare them to the American negros.

For those of us who have thick skin and high self-esteem it is very hard to get offended, we get offended because we choose to get offended, we get offended because we choose to be victims. Who cares what this woman thinks? Who cares what she says? She is just another talking head with an opinion.

 

Many of us happen to prefer Thailand and Thai women, for a dozen good reasons. For me the Philippines reminds me of one enormous Tijuana, with really, really bad food. 

You often put yourself forward as an expert on the Philippines, but when asked about what experience you have there, you're always silent. How long did you live there? Did you have many relationships with Filipinos?

 

I have a lot of experience on both sides of the South China Sea, but it's hard to make useful comparisons because relationships are complex and all people are unique individuals with their unique personalities. My Filipino wife was very different to other Filipinos I've met.

 

Perhaps you could list your "for a dozen good reasons" why you prefer Thai women over Filipinos? This comment would suggest you've had a lot of experience with both nationalities.

 

As for me, I prefer to live in Thailand, so after my divorce from a Filipino I need to explore my options with Thai women.

 

To offer some insight into this comparison, there are some very important points to consider.

 

Firstly, let's explore the population demographics of both countries:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thailand: People living below the poverty line - 6.3% (2021 data)

Philippines: People living below the poverty line - 18.1% (2021 data)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So the Philippines is much poorer by a factor of 3.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thailand: population 71.8 million

Median age: 40 years

Population 0 - 14: 30.7%

 

Philippines: population ~ 118 million

Median age: 25 years

Population 0 - 14: 17%

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To summarize, there are about 6 million females below 15 years of age in Thailand vs 18 million in the Philippines. The number in the Philippines will continue to increase while the number in Thailand will reduce due to the much lower fertility rate of Thailand's population. Thailand's population is aging while The Philippines' population continues to grow.

 

There are roughly 3 times more available young females in the Philippines vs Thailand.

 

In the Philippines, unmarried, available females in the 18 - 25 age group without children are easy to find. In Thailand, most foreigners will date older women with children. With the much higher poverty rate in the Philippines you'll find that young, unmarried females without children are often desperate and willing to marry any foreigner they can find. Such is not the case in Thailand.

 

Also to consider is the social welfare system of Thailand is a lot better than in the Philippines, and that's an understatement.

Rubbish!  You can't have been around much if you haven't heard Filipina being referred to as flippers!    It not about all women.

This is nonsense. Go to the Philippines and start calling everyone flips and see if they give "2 flooks" about it. You're out of touch.

 

I was not comparing Filipinos with Americans, it was just a comparison of derogatory terms, not races, Snowflake.
