The Filipino's pride in being Filipino is a tiny flame; with my words, I wish to pour gasoline on it.

Your tempered approach to provoking discussion is just what we need! Go mayor of Friend Zone!
I really think that you should keep airing commentary on these things. Most filipino kids I know who go to the Philippines seem to be emotionally removed from the poverty and corruption, not too unlike myself.
Thank you Jokway!
I'm an Philippine born, American-raised Filipina. I always felt excluded, but as far as I know (lol take your best shot freud) I attribute my sentiments toward the values and culture (that isn't necessarily owned as "Filipino") that I was raised with. I'm Catholic and I have always felt this tension between what American culture thought was healthy behavoir and what my parents always told and showed me to be true and right.
