Regarding bikinis: this used to be true. Even a few years ago it might have been true, but it's changed - at least a bit.Array9 wrote:These are very good observations WT. A conservative filipina would never wear a bikini in public. There is also a good chance that if she is covering her lower regions by wearing shorts, then she is a virgin.WorldTraveler wrote:I've never done any online dating in Phil but did set up an account on Cherry Blossoms to check out the talent. I found that only 1 in 200 was really attractive. I've also heard that many girls don't look as good as their pictures. I believe the most attractive girls don’t have to waste time on dating sites unless they are looking for sponsors. I’d guess that most of real good looking ones that interested in men, have children and they are not telling you.

Girls that pose like this are “models” or ex-bar girls. I think it is real questionable what kind of modeling they are doing. No nice girl in the Philippines wears a bikini. They swim in shorts and T-shirts. I also don’t believe there are many virgins in the Philippines. If they are having sex with you on first meeting or second date, they are have sex with many other guys too. Their goal is to make you feel you are feel special, but you are not. They tell you they like you because your young, but tell an older guy they like him because he's more mature and not a young player!
When my wife and I were still "dating" we planned to visit CDO. A friend of ours who lived there was that classic, very conservative virgin type; she's married now and living in Minnesota, so I assume no more
Anyway, when we proposed to meet her in CDO she got so excited at the prospect that she arranged to throw us a pool party and invited all her gfs. My wife did not own a bathing suit and we bought one in Cebu before going to CDO. She picked out a bikini, but I assumed that was my influence Anyway, we all met at a hotel, ate, hung out, and it wasn't till early evening when things had cooled off that we all decided to go out to the pool. BTW, all the girls were shy and sweet and definitely inexperienced with foreigners. I expected most or all the girls to wear what you described - tshirts and shorts. In reality most of the girls did have bathing suits and many of them were bikinis. Of course they still all acted shy in their bathing suits - at least at first. I ended up posting a pic of Janet, my wife, in her bikini on FB, but she asked me to remove it. After all, it was a bold enough step that she was traveling with me alone. OTOH, when we go to the provinces, where Janet is from, and swim in the ocean, the vast majority of girls are dressed as you suggest (tshirts and shorts), as does my wife.
Bottom line, when I looked online for a potential gf/wife I assumed that bikini shots were a big red flag. It might be less of a red flag now, although I'd still be careful.
Now determining whether a girl is truly a virgin is an entirely different topic and the guys going to Phils and expecting girls who screw in a date or two are unlikely to meet virgins.
he still hasn't answered how he is able to have the time to do this. his stories dont add up. who blows into manila within 3 days and on his first trip to boot and has a condo and a lineup of hot women? I was there for months and would have trouble getting that much done.
