A friend of mine just started a new dating site called Christian Filipina, where you can meet quality Christian Filipinas, and where Christians can find partners for life in Asia.

No thanks, religious fanatics and such who advertise themselves as "Christians" usually turn out to be despicable human beings.

Its marketing. Along with fear of being scammed which they hope a "Christian woman" would not do most guys on the internet do say they are looking for "Christian". "Family values", "no divorce" etc. "Christian" is just more inclusive the "Catholic" as the name of a dating service, plus you pick up another 6% of the nation, the Protestant Filipinas, as bait. I mean women who offer their profiles so a site gets more hits.
I wonder if any profile on any site describes a girl as anything other then Catholic or Christian?
It definitely looks more simple, straightforward and easy to read. The text is bigger too, which will help those on laptops with smaller screens. But I'm not sure about the dark brown theme. It has a nice down to earth feel to it, but usually dating sites use themes with romance colors in them, such as light blue, pink, red, or violet.

I've had a look at the site, and the owners of the site do seem to be quite sincere and genuinely interested in helping their customers find love. I doubt I'd be suitable for such a site - I mean, I'm nominally a Christian by virtue of having been baptized in a Protestant church, and attended church regularly when I was a little boy, but I don't actively practice or adhere to any religion now.
I also have considerable doubts about the existence of God, because I can't verify his/her/its existence with any one of my five senses. By the same token, I see arguments for and against the existence of God and don't know which one to accept, so I remain an unconvinced (but not entirely dismissive) agnostic.

It's a nice looking site. If you're not religious then I'd guess it's best to stay away from Filipino women. All the ones I know are God fearing to say the least.

But some of them are accepting of men who aren't religious, so I don't know if it's 'best to stay away from Filipino women.'

It think this is true. If you respect her beliefs and make it clear you won't get in the way of her religion you won't have any problems.

I don't know about this. Religion is pretty fundamental in relationships. I much prefer the not especially religious Chinese women. My Chinese gf is not religious. Her mom is though, although this seems to consist purely of burning paper money to appease the gods!
I did date a really religious Japanese girl once. I don't think our marriage would have worked.

Meanwhile Filipino Catholics it only really means they go to Mass on Sunday. All the other stuff is hit or miss, birth control included. That fight is more in line with the American fight will you or the government, through mandatory insurance in the American case, pay for it.
Yes some travel to touch a black statue of Jesus or crucify themselves for Easter but in the end its not like being in a one faith town with a cult leader preparing Kool Aid.

Christian Filipina has a special offer for Happier Abroad members!
Announcement from Christian Filipina:
Quote:
"We are offering an Independence Day Special for July on our site. This allows you a completely free 3-day upgraded level membership. You need to create a free level account at our site Christian-Filipina.com then the only way to get this special is to call us. It is like the Match.Com 3-day trial: You need to confirm your credit card and agree that if you do not cancel, then you will continue on a subscription service. However, you can cancel or switch your account back to free level before the end of your 3 day trial and you will not be charged.
If you mention Happier Abroad on the phone then we will give you a free 4 day trial instead of 3 day.
Our 800# for this is 800 578 1469."
I've tried out their site myself, and can personally attest that there a LOT of sincere quality girls on there. I know the owner and have met him in the Philippines. He and his staff screen everyone on there to maintain genuine high quality members. They really care about what they do.

I am not one to bash you Winston, we all have histories but your's seem like a present lifestyle. While.it seems they are screening girls but at the same time calling in wolves to feed on the Good Christian Sheep.

Raja, if I understand where you're coming from, you;re saying that sweet, monogamy-minded women signing up for that site shouldn't be promoted to men who want to seduce them and have sex.
Is that correct?
If that's what you're saying, OK, yeah, I understand the point..... I'm a Christian too, and a father as well...
But if the girls sit around waiting for men who are just dying to marry their non-virgin a** without sex up front........ they are going to be waiting for a long time.
And if they are waiting for men whose main motive is nonsexual...... they are going to be waiting for a long time.
Moreover, if a guy isn't motivated to romance and seduce, many women would probably be uncomfortable with him. Women do like our aggresive side.
I do oppose the seduce-and-abandon stuff - but I don't condemn it as a huge sin, either. A girl whose father, brother or uncle is doing his job will not be victim to that. Men cannot withdraw protection from a daughter, send her out in the world, and then expect every other man out there to be Francis of Assisi. Everyone should learn from normal traditional patriarchal cultures, like small towns in the Middle East. Men do their job there, and guard their flock.
But although I oppose PUA stuff as a less-than-ideal lifestyle, HA is *NOT* a PUA site. It just may the best damn place to find men who actually LIKE women. If the owner of Christian Filipina was promoting the site on RooshVForum, that would be more appropriate to criticize.
Peace.

LOL well not every guy here is a "wolf". Some here are marriage minded and seeking marriage material girls. For those, Christian Filipina is a good option. There is no one shoe fits all, so I just present the options.
Anyhow, try out the site and put up a free profile. Many girls will then contact you first. Then you can check them out and see what kind of girls that they are. I think you will be impressed. They seem pretty sincere and genuine to me.
