Why are all the UK (& also US) Chatrooms full of Filipina girls? What exactly do they want from us?

Some, but not all mind you, are probably looking to find someone to either marry them or be their 'financial sponsor', i.e. their "Sugar Daddy". \nI used to work with a Filipino gentleman, and, according to what he told me once while we were talking on a break at work, a hundred US dollars, or the same amount in British pounds, is enough for a family of three or four to live on for almost a month in the Phillipines, and ten or twenty thousand dollars could buy the next best thing to a mansion outright. \nDon't fall for any lines they may give you, like one or both of their parents being ill and not having enough money to pay for medical care or being in college and suddenly losing their 'scholarship' or 'grant'.\nI also mentioned some girls from his home country had to my former co-worker and he informed me that the ones who 'offer to strip' are basically the kind of girls you NEVER want to give any personal information to, because they're either scamming you on their own or working for someone else running the scam, usually someone with better computer skills than the average person on the internet, meaning a hacker or even group of hackers.\nLike I said in my first line, not all of the girls are like that though, some genuinely want to find a foreign spouse, since even someone who makes less than $25,000, or the equivalent in British pounds, is considered to have a mid to upper middle class income in relation to the the average income in the Phillipines, and other countries as well.\nSo, try to avoid the ones who 'offer' to do anything at all in return for money, and block them from contacting you if at all possible, but if one of them merely wants to talk with someone who lives in a different country, and there are some of them out there, feel free to chat with them, but if money ever comes up in the conversation, meaning she suddenly needs some, within the first month, it's probably a long term scam.\nAlso, I'm sorry to say, the Filipina women aren't the only ones doing this sort of thing, I've seen numerous women from the former USSR, and even a few from Southeast Aisa, Taiwan, Thailand, Viet Nam, and Korea (North and South), doing the same thing.\nOne Russian woman even contacted me out of the blue and told me she had seen my picture and knew from merely looking at it that she and I were 'soulmates', then tried to persuade me to pay for her visa fees and airline ticket to come to the US--as if I could afford that sort of thing on what I was making at the time. (If I could have afforded to let her have the amount of money she was asking me for I wouldn't have been driving a thirdhand Dodge Dakota with over 200,000 miles on the odometer at the time.)\nJust try to ignore the more blatant ones out there, or if you can report them for abusing the chat room privileges, if they have and usually 'offering to strip' for money falls into the category of abuse because they're basically using the chat room to line up clients for their business, namely the porn or scam business.\nI apologize if my statements offend anyone, but I am merely passing on my own experience and information I have received in a firsthand conversation with a Native Filipino gentleman.\nI fully realize a lot of single women in other countries are merely looking for a foreign spouse who can give them a better life than they have in their own nation--this warning is not directed against those honest women, it is directed at the DISHONEST ones trying to get money from other people.

Yes, there's quite a lot of us from the UK, although we don't all still LIVE there, some of us are in other countries now!\n\nThe UK link at the bottom is a bit of a waste of time ... the questions are still the same .com ones!!!\n\nAnyway, lots of people ask questions like "For Brits only - what does this mean ...??" so just go ahead and post those Qs!!

Because they just too plain stupid to find chatrooms, or because they are complete losers looking for attention.\n\nI'd suggest ignoring them completely.

LMFAO!!! Yahoo's claiming to be upgrading the Chat rooms & features on Groups.  I don't miss it as I rarely went into one for the same reasons.  I've stuck to chatting on Yahoo's messenger & my AIM messenger.

i agree. but people on here are no different than people anywhere.. especially those on here who are young and a little unsure of themselves..  \n\nbut i agree, communication is everything, and people need to gather up the courage to chat with whomever they are interested in..  \n\npeople can try to read signs and read body languange and ask friends to investigate about information, but it's so much easier to just ask someone outright whether or not they are intested in you..

I'd be very very careful if you do.  Lot of predators out there looking for children.  Why does she need to be in a chat room?

I agree.  The filters aren't going to help much, as you have probably seen there are ways around that.  I suggest something like they do with chat, go by the age on the account then shoot it to one area that is for underage only and moderated.  That is how they did chat when they had the adult only rooms.  It would work here as well.

There are no women left in the USA they all want to be men and put the real ones down!Women can do say to whoever they want because the fems have passed laws that say they can and there is`nt any women left that are honest and care about anything else but their own selfish wants.Japan,China,Australia have good women still.Good Luck!

One of the best things about this site is that anyone of any age (well 13+), sex, religion, nation or country of national origin can use it.  I learn a lot from some of the most childish questions and sometimes a child my not have access or feel comfortable with talking to an adult, but will post a question here.\n\nThis is not a chat room.  It is an experiment in cyber community relations.  Perhaps yahoo would expand their catagories to include some which specifically say Adult Relations and not just Friends and Family or Love and Romance.\n\nSure How much wood and Why is the sky questions are a pain in the patootie.  Don't answer them, skip and move on.  Remember this is still a beta sight which usually means Under Construction or Development.\n\nYou might contact the Yahoo Answers team directly.

You might want to look at some UK Asian dating sites: \n\nhttp://www.asians4asians.com\nhttp://www.asiandatingservice.co.uk\nhttp://www.asiansnetwork.com\nhttp://www.asianfaces.co.uk\n\nAnother way to meet girls is through family networks. Do you have any relatives in the UK who can help you with introductions? What about work friends who might have relatives that could be willing to help?

Dianne\n\nMy answer was one of the answers you have complained about, and looking at it from your side of the fence, you are quite right.\n\nThe answer was borne out of the British, slightly comic perception of an ageing Englishman, probably a widower, who is desperate to have "relations" with young attractive women.  So he logs on to an internet dating site offering marriage to eastern ladies, corresponds with the lady briefly, then pays for her to come to the UK, marries her and then never sees her again because she is out of her possibly low quality life in the Philipines or Thailand or wherever and is a full UK citizen.  This is known as getting a "Mail Order Bride".\n\nFor upsetting you, I apologise.\n\nAnd you look very pretty.

greetings...\n\nphilippines was ones considered as the third largest english speaking country in the world next to US and the UK.\nbut that is no longer the case... the filipinos were taking for granted the gift of english which they had...\nas what current conditions in the philippines imply, english is of much significance being the universal language...\nwithout the proper practice of english filipinos might might forever plunge into a third world country...\nbut on the other hand, it is the english language that can pull the philippines from the claws of poverty...\n\ni hope i was able to help.......

My dear Jeff, it seems that your point has been sorely missed by most people. I am guessing that you don't particularly want to chat with "whites only" but are merely asking that if other cultures are catered for then why not white americans? After all they are people too? \nAs soon as you mention anything like this, even if it's just to make a point then 99% of people will brand you a racist or nazi before even thinking of the question properly. \nI personally would have no interest in such a chat room, but will defend peoples right to have it - as other cultures have theirs. \nDo people really think that in say, a black american chat room, people use it to constantly berate non-black cultures? No, this is preposterous, as it would make black people generically racist!!.\nI live in Great Britain and have increaingly strong veiws on this subject. British people are increasingly being told not to celebrate their culture (in some places you cannot even fly the English flag - seriously!). British people do not want race hate, just to be able to show pride in who they are and their heritage. \nGovernments and corporations are so scared of insulting anyone these days we are all becoming transparent, unless you belong to a minority.\nThere is only a Human Race is an absolute shortcut to thinking, the world is vast with thousands of cultures and intricacies, if there was just one single human persona it would be a bit boring wouldn't it?\nAll we want Jeff is the right to be who we are without stupid, shortsighted and bloody insulting comments about racism.

"miss.china d" must have had a bad experience with them..\nMy buddy can say all asian women are whores since his mom cheated on his dad and all his sisters are hoes and his ex g/f(asian chic)wanted to cheat on him with me.She's probably pretending to be asian w/fake avatar anyways-(it's common in this site)...\n\nI can tell ya that all races have there A-h o l e s...\nI know that asian guys are the same as any...I know alot from school/work/parties,etc. and most of them are pretty cool and kick it like any other.There are way too many breeds(thai,vietnamese,cambodian,korean,and the list goes on for ever)...you'll get alot unfamiliararities due to many different upbringings...it gets confusing but I'm use to it cause the heavy population of them where I live.Hope ya get good contacts.
