If you matured in the Philippines, possibilities are you matured with your grandma or aunties (in your area called as Titas) telling you that your skirt is too short, your reds are too red, your blouse is too see-through, or you went house too late (or early given that you did be available in at 2AM). There would also be times that they have called you out for chuckling too loud or have asked you "Who was that guy on that photo in Facebook? Why was his arm around you? Is he your boyfriend? Malagkit ang tingin niya sayo (He takes a look at you in a different way)." or something to that level. Just recently, I did something any decent Dalagang Cabanatuan Girls Filipino would never ever do (perhaps given that the Dalaga had no iPhone before): I downloaded Tinder and swiped right numerous times. To my surprise, I got numerous swipe rights back and my phone pinged nearly 7 times a day informing me that I have a new message from some stranger that swiped right on me. However, this women Filipino did not stop at merely talking them. I went out with among them. Imagine the number of slippers that could be flying round the Dalaga's house must the household learn about this. I informed a good friend of mine that I went on a Tinder date in Canada. She was informing me to erase the app and as any excellent pal, warned me about the perils of Tinder that I currently knew about. Even more surprisingly, she discussed that she never ever believed that I would download Tinder and not to mention go on a Tinder date. "Due To The Fact That Dalagang Pilipina," she responds. She was right, the Dalaga would never do this.
She will sit on their ancestral home's balcony and await for Pedro/Juan/Pepito/ whoever to serenade her. Poor Pedro/Pepito/Juan will need to travel through an audition just to be able to highlight our Dalagang Girls Filipino, think something like American Idol, The Voice, Britain's Got Talent and so on. Judges will be granny, auntie, auntie's partner, Dalagang Pilipina's brother & & parents, grandmother's good friend, and in some cases their neighbor. That is the girl our grandparents, parents, aunties, uncles, next-door Cabanatuan Girls neighbors anticipate us to be. Anything that does not suit that cookie-cutter mold, may it be less or more, was something ... Why? Because it was something various. If it was something bad or excellent was a different story. The Dalagang Girls Filipino is a concept. She does not go on Tinder dates. For the longest time, teenage ladies Filipino ladies (in the Philippines) were anticipated to suit this description or at least, be demure, made up, lady-like, and so on. Exist women Filipino who are still like this? Yes. Exist Filipinas who go on Tinder dates? Juan-or-Pedro/damsel-in-distress and I don't believe there's anything incorrect with that. It does not always mean that we are trying to find a relationship or desire someone to sleep with. Though in some cases, and I won't lie, it does. I guess I am merely no Dalagang Girls Filipino anymore. And I don't think all ladies Filipino are anymore. Is that a bad thing? I do not believe so. It just means we understand what we want and we go all out. I want to rethink the statement I have actually mentioned earlier, that the Dalagang Girls Filipino would never do somethingsuch as install Tinder on her phone. The Dalagang Girls Filipino would download it, swipe a few times, message him some dangerous notes and she would not get caught.
Just recently, I did something any decent Dalagang Girls Filipino would never do (maybe since the Dalaga had no iPhone prior to): I downloaded Tinder and swiped ideal numerous times. I told a good friend of mine that I went on a Tinder date in Canada. Even more surprisingly, she discussed that she never ever believed that I would download Tinder and let alone go on a Tinder date. She doesn't go on Tinder dates. Are there Filipinas who go on Tinder dates?
