Should I Let My Son Date the Girl He Met Online?
Dear Amber,
I need to ask you dating advice for my son. He has been ‘seeing’ this girl on a website named match.com and thinks he has found his true love. I do not believe in the computer and I do believe dating on it can only lead to bad things. There is nothing but evil on that machine and I keep telling him this, but he will not listen. He is going to meet this girl from the Phillipines in New York where he goes to school. He is just telling me about this now and I am so afraid.
I know I hear Phillipinas like to carry knives and there was their president, the woman with all the shoes, who was a brutal dictator. The country is not good and I think she is flying up here to hold him hostage. Am I overreacting? My son thinks I am but I disagree.
My husband thinks he will be fine but I am ready to pull him out of school. I will pull the rest of his tuition for the next two years and take away his credit card. He’ll be back here in Texas where he belongs and he can go to a local university. Please tell me something I can use on him to get him to leave this hellhoud haggard alone and just finish his studies. At least I want him to date an American girl on his campus or something. Any help is great Amber.

Dear Worried Mom,
Filipina women are prone to violence. Did you know that in the Philippines, the prisons are mostly filled with women? It is a strange reversal from the United States, but in the Phillipines women tend to do many of the scary murders and drug trafficking you hear about on the news. When it was revealed that the Filipina president was brutal, she was praised and voted back into office.
Studies show that 7/10 online relationships end within 3 days of meeting. Of those meetups, nearly 38% result in assault or death. Many predators use the ruse of online dating to entrap Americans and sell them as sex slaves in foreign markets. Being a port town, New York would be the perfect place for this woman to lure your son to a harbor, have a group of secret men run out and pommel him into a bloody heap, toss him in a barrel and sail him out to sea where they will do all sorts of horrible things to every part of his body until you pay a ransom. Is that really the future you and your husband dreamed up for your son?
And even if that does not happen, transexuality is very common in the Philipines. It actually has the highest per capita rate of male-to-female conversions. Plastic surgery is very common and cheap in the Philipines, so your son would not know he was actually bedding a male likely until they could not have a baby or a secret lump was found in the neck or groin. Even then, some get plastic surgery so advanced neither tell-tell sign is available. Do you want your son to get AIDS from a Filipino gender deserter? As there is nothing more lucrative than an American male, it is probable that this Filipina is at best a man who is going to do horrible things to your son, corrupt his morality, make him drop out of school and leave him a diseased washout who dies an a New York alley.
Please watch this video with your husband.
The choice you have to make as parents is clear. Forbid your son to date anyone online, especially someone foreign. He will cry, yell and balk. That is fine. Threaten to take away his tuition and credit card as you have already thought to do: he will straighten out just fine. Also, demand access to his Facebook and cell phone records, so you can make sure he’s not secretly messaging or thinking about meeting up with this creeper behind your back. Great job, Mom in Texas. Your instincts were right.

I think mom has the right handle on the situation. So many Filipino women come from squalid poverty. They come to the US and immediately hook up with a fine young man from a good home. Once she’s caught his eye it won’t be long before her panties hit the ground. These seething scam women will claim to be pregnant and play that game long enough to get married to an American boy whose Christian family insists he do the right thing by marrying the girl. With that goal accomplished she will quietly bleed the boy’s family dry for money. Then she’ll move on and do it again somewhere else.

filipina are not prone to violence You clearly doN,t know anything about the outside world (not surprising you think it’s china who attacked pearl harbor)
Therefore he must choose carefully the woman filipina are christian roman catholic for most of them and are very much more Honest than when you think
Oh and Prison in Phillipines are filled with liar cheater and unfaithful husband they don’t have divorce out there but annulment
And seriously I don’t think anything bad would happen to Him since she did make the trip to USA by herself which is actually serious for real love
but anyway everyone know that you just wanted to bash on asian much more

The fact that she’s made the trip to America is the most worrying part. It says two things;
1) She can’t find a man in her native land. Possibly she has a reputation in the Phillipines for being particularly quarrelsome, and Filipino men where she lives know to avoid her.
2) She is particularly eager to profit from the relationship financially, as evidenced by her willingness to invest initial capital in travel expenses.

Actually, Mr. Alphabet, there is a ratio of 1:7, men to women, in the Philippines. The girl probably got sick of the long string of “dead-end” suitors. Sure, there was a high level of prostitution there in the past (until the U.S. was told to close their bases and leave). Ever wonder where all the money was coming from that kept them in that profession? I was there when I was in the Marines and I can tell you that your own sons (and some daughters) were the ones “pumping” the money out. I don’t recall ANY of them trying to stop the girls. More often than not, they were too busy trying to find their NEXT “paid” date.
So, before you judge the Filipino girls, look to your own children as enablers.

Yep, her son is getting scammed. There is no chick. It’s a dude and”she” is trying to get to the states but first “she” needs him to send $2,000 to pay for expenses. Yea, that poor kid is going to be hog tied later and told he has a pretty mouth for sure.

Love is love. You cannot control what your emotions tell you. That is all I can say to you ignorant, closed-minded conservatives. I can honestly say that I don’t mind dating anyone of any race or sexuality, because you can’t judge someone by their outer appearance or what their country’s reputation is. Just because she is Filipino, doesn’t mean she is automatically a bad person. OH MY! I have friends who are Muslim and guess what? Their not terrorists!!! Woohoo!
