Okay, first of all your question doesn't make sense. pure unmixed pinoy without negrito mix look alike?? There is no such thing as a pure unmixed pinoy without negrito mix because there is no such thing as a pure Filipino race. We are mostly mixed. Read this article about it:

The Filipino specialty: 'halu-halo'

By RITA MIRANO

Rita Mirano majors in psychology at Assumption College.

HALU-HALO, the Filipino’s favorite dessert or refreshment, is a totally native invention. Nobody knows when or how it started as a Filipino tradition. It is an exotic mix of jackfruit, red beans, garbanzos, toasted rice and native sweets like ube jam, leche flan and nata de coco, laced with syrup and topped with milk and ice. Halu-halo is the Filipino’s preferred merienda, not only because of its singularly native flavor but also because it is the perfect foil for our warm climate. For balikbayan a halu-halo treat is always a “must.” For foreigners and tourists, halu-halo’s exquisite blend of fruit and delicacy reflects the ingenuity, sense of humor and warm hospitality of the Filipino people.


The Filipino is a halu-halo of several races and cultures. Many attribute the Philippines’ sluggish progress as a nation to 400 years of Spanish rule. The Filipino became so adapted to Spanish ways that he lost sight of his ancestral roots and indigenous culture.


After the Spaniards came other conquerors -- the Americans and the Japanese. To the Filipino, survival meant adapting to the ways of the conqueror -- whoever was in power. The series of conquests produced a race of hybrid Filipinos called mestizos. As the population grew with increased intermarriages between races, the “pure-blooded” Filipino became an endangered species. The modern Filipino is a mix of all the races that subjugated the Philippines -- the Spanish, Americans and Japanese -- and other ethnic groups that arrived in the country through migration.


Not only through conquest, though, did the Filipinos become a people of mixed descent. In the Spanish times, many Chinese people migrated to the Philippines in search of a better life or to escape from authoritarian rule back home. The Chinese have a saying: “a Chinese woman is for a Chinese man” and vice versa. Because not all the Chinese followed this tradition, a new breed of half-Chinese and half-Filipino individuals began to thrive.


Although the Chinese eventually merged with the main population, they did not adopt the Filipino culture. On the contrary, their Filipino neighbors adopted the Chinese ways. As a result, Chinese customs were gradually assimilated by Filipinos.


As we all know, the Chinese have been trading with Filipinos ever since precolonial times. One could say that what actually took place was a sort of “cultural transaction.” Eventually the Filipinos absorbed Chinese traditions, while the Chinese never gave up their own customs. Thus Chinatown was born.

The Hindu-Arabs have been trading with Filipinos during precolonial times. Intermarriages between Arabs and Filipinos introduced the Hindu-Arabic strain into the Filipino bloodline.


Looking at the Filipino, one is always caught in the middle of a debate. One side says that the Filipino is Malayan (people who came from Polynesia). The other side says he is Asian. Still others say that Filipinos are Aetas or Negroes. As most educated Filipinos know, there are three kinds of ancient races from which Filipinos may have originated -- the Negro, the Indones and the Malayan. The majority of Filipinos look like Malayans.


Other races with physical similarity to the Filipinos are the Mexicans, Tibetans and New Zealanders. The people of these races have robust bodies and tan complexions, just like the Filipinos at the time of the great datus.


The Aetas, on the other hand, are similar to the Ainus, who were dark-skinned and are said to be the first residents of Japan. But the original races that composed the Filipinos can also be found in other parts of the world. Thus, the Filipino race must have arisen from assorted populations around the world.


The simple explanation is migration. Because of its topography, the Philippines is vulnerable to incursions from all directions by people of different races.


The Philippines is in a confusing spot. The country is in Asia while its first residents are Malayan. This may be explained by the fact that the Malayans came before our Asian neighbors. Compared to nearby lands such as Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia and Korea, whose people are of Chinese origin, the Philippines is the only country in existence that is both Asian and Malayan. Being an archipelago and located in Southeast Asia, the flow of migration to our land will most likely come from both directions -- from the south came the Polynesians and from the east came the Asians. If the Asians had been the first residents of the Philippines, they might have occupied the whole of the archipelago and made the Philippines an Asian nation.


Conquests, trade, interracial marriages, the geography of the Philippines and migration schedules -- these are factors that shaped the Filipino’s multiracial heritage. At every instance in his distant past lurked the chance of turning the Filipinos into a halo-halo race.


However, we should not look upon this as a disadvantage. The Filipino may have lost his identity and may find nowhere the roots of his origin, but like the halu-halo, he is a “masterpiece,” an amalgam of diverse races and cultures, each possessing intelligence and grace. But could the Filipino’s mixed descent have generated the innate contradictions in his psyche that distorted his vision and weakened his resolve? History suggests that the Filipino’s multiracial ancestry has been both an asset and a liability.

this is the most out-dated article i ever read in my life (IMG:http://www.asiafinest.com/forum/style_emoticons/default/sure.gif) ... First of all Filipino is not a race or ethnicity. it is a NATIONALITY and a nationality alone.

who knows the difference between these words:

RACE
ETHNICITY
NATIONALITY

the only thing that is confined to any given location is natonality...

look i am of the Mongoloiod Race

i am Ethnically MALAY (of the philippines)

& my nnationailty is UNITED STATES CITIZEN

.....

how hard is that to figure out?

our race is Mongoliod

our ethnicity is prodominately Malayan, i don't care what anyone says about every Filipino being a mestizo.. that is impossible... There were only a few 100s of spaniards who settled in the philippine, do you mean to tell me they raped or had sex with every single native malay in a 300 year span?? they transeve all the rugged terrain in the philippines and hit every village and had some sex with the women? damn, they must been real horny, um that's stupid... look, vietnam is said to be under chinese rule for a 1,000 years, do you u see vietnamese saying they are half chinese? no.

we are no different than our neighobooring indonesian and malaysian islander, and even madagascar islander, we speak the same type of native language, we have the same type of native culture, and wow, there is even a word to describe this similar language and culture we share and that is called Austronesian.

after you become expose to the word Austronesian, maybe you should reasearch it, because polynesians didnt migrate to the philippines. if anything, Polynesian peoples migrated from the philippines and surrounding islands... they practice the native austronesian culture in its most preserved form, because they were never introduced to foriegn religions and cultures like we were, so they never adopted them and continued to preserve and cultivate that native austronesian culture. i guess that is why they are even to establish this concept of POLYNESIAN TRIANGLE because even though the triangle reachs from Hawaii to New Zealand to Easter island, they still can recognize that they have a common tongue and culture... if they can realize that why can't the indonesian, filipino, and malaysian ppl as well? how great it would be if we indonesians, malaysians, filipinos began to concentrate more on things we had in common rather than looking at each other as christians and muslims who want to kill each other! we are sharing the same island region. it is ugly to hear about the marred violence in Sulu and Mindanao between Christian Malay and Muslim Malay of the philippines.. it is equally disheartening to hear of the violence in Maluku archipelago betweeen teh CHristian Malay and Muslim Malay of INdonesia...

i am a strong promoter of reviving the honorable and most civilized customs of Austronesian culture such as the concepts of Family, and extended Family, brotherhood, friendship etc that should be UNCONDITIONAL. you should not look bad on your own malay brother becaues he has adopt a different religion. i believe if all the Malays of the MALAY ARCHIPELAGO (indonesia,philippines) AND MALAY PENNINSULA (Malaysia) look at each other as brothers first and foremost and religion etc second, there will be less strive in our region.

Remember the only main differences between Indonesians, Malaysians, Filipinos are:

first, although we share a common native language and culture, we adopted different religions, foreign cultures etc.

i can't deny that, so i agree if someone is to say the philippines is MULTI-CULTURAL.

second, white peopel are the ones who cut up these islands and named their idnividual territories indonesia for the dutch, malaysia for the english, philippines for the spanish... your lucky there weren't a bunch of other european colonizers who claimed terrotiries or else you would be relaly confused. imagine if swedish took luzon and spanish took visayas, and portuguese took mindanao.....

and then these places eventually gain their indepenence from their colonial masters.... how would you look at those peoples, as strangers wouldn't you.

i guess, you are at the mercy of the white colonizer that this didnt happen huh? because then your life may jsut be a little more complex because u have more segregation he put on your Malayan family.

thats riducilous to me.... i don't observe the lines european drew which segregated my malay brother. i recognize indonesian, malaysian, madagascar as my malay brother

anyways, this is stupid, i said this 400 times already.

I never claimed that Filipinos are mestizos. Yes, I agree that most Filipinos are Malays but I pretty much doubt that they are 'pure' Malay race. My family for one is not pure Malays. And no matter what you say that I am juz claiming this bcoz I am not willing to acknowledge my Malay heritage, well, you're wrong. I do know for a fact that this is the case in my family. And yes, I do agree, this is silly. Filipinos are a nationality, not a race, and ppl should get over this whole race thing.

ok i am not saying filipinos are pure malays either. i said filipinos are prodominately malay. i don't see the relaveance in stating filipinos have .00000020020200202002020020020000001 % negrito genetics. that has no effect in the culture and every day lifestyle of the average malay of the philippines. no negrito in the philipipnes evenn speak their truly native language, they adopted an austronesian tongue. its called assimlation.

I have to say filipinos are very-multicultural. Some I have seen have black skin, some have light-skin, some have white-skin with latino features.

They tend to be the mestiza Filipinos. They are half breeds but they only make up a very small minority in the phils. Chinese looking Filipinos are more predominant than them.

I don't mean half-white, half-phillipino. They are phillipino, but they have white skin and latinos features. Is that what you mean my "mestiza"? I finally found a pic after spending damn 10mins searching *Phew..* Here is the pic

The guy in pic. That is what I was trying to express in words. Is this what you mean by "mestiza".

BTW, that celebrity next to the guy is HOT (IMG:http://www.asiafinest.com/forum/style_emoticons/default/hump.gif)

Hmmm...yeah I know what you mean. Half my family relatives are like that, but I never thought they had Latino features. But then, Mexicans tend to have similar skin colour to Filipinos. As for the celebrity, I have no idea who she is but I don't think she's hot. She juz looks okay to me.

As you can see, she looks barely Filipino. She looks more Latina.

Yeh maybe that pics was a bad example for Latino features, but in real life I have seen a guy with skin colour like that with a mustache and he looks Latino. Anyways, The girl in the pic is a celebrity, not the guy lol. Her name is Diana Zubiri.
I got the pic from this site:

huh??? Try reading the other Asian forums. You will notice that a lot of them will have topics such as 'who is the hottest so and so'. Why don't you ask them that too.

i think almost everybody's interested in beautiful/handsome people. not just filipinos. there's the Ms. Universe beauty pageant, remember? or, have you seen the models of mossimo? they are beautiful/handsome people, no?
