After reading more posts, I've realized that filipinos are not of Ainu descent, but spanish. So this means that filipinos are bi-racial. Awesome, I've always wanted to refer to myself as a hapa. Now I can honestly say I am. Now don't say, it has to be half/half because bi-racial means two races, and us filipinos are two races, asian and spanish. So even if the spanish blood is only .01%, that is still SOMETHING. Wowowee, now I know how Keeanu Reeves (as well as other hapas out there) feels; not knowing or not really sure which race I truly belong to, but the bright side is, we get the best of both worlds.

Now that you realized that you're bi-racial, do you guys plan on hanging out with asians (such as chinese, koreans, japanese, etc.), spanish people, or fellow hapas?

since so many people in the Philippines have Spanish blood in them, it doesn't count.
people who have it in them are called Filipino.

Keanu Reeves isn't hapa, he's only like 1/4 Asian. (he's a Quapa- quarter Asian)

hapa means someone whos 1/2.
are you half Spanish, half Filipino?
no.
then you're not a Hapa.

Why would you even want to represent your Spanish blood? The Spanish empire left their colonies in ruins. Even the British at least left a far better legacy than the Spainards. I may carry a Spanish name, but I hold the Spainards in disgust. Dirty Europeans who deserve whatever bad karma they may have.

Hardly anybody in the Philippines claims to be part Spanish, even if they really are.

No. It's not .01%. The European blood in Filipinos lies at 3.6-4% Alternatively: 20% of Filipinos have Chinese admixture, 11.7-15% of Filipinos have Latino blood,5% Have Genes from the Indian Subcontinent and 2% have Arab blood.

The rest: about 70% of the entire population are pure Malays belonging to various distinct ethnic groups. Although there are gazillion known Philippine Malay ethnicities the most populous ones are:

Bicolano
Ibanag
Ilocano
Ivatan
Kapampangan
Moro
Pangasinense
Sambal
Tagalog
Visayan

There are also several aboriginal races peopling the Philippines including the: Badjao
Igorot, Lumad, Mangyan, Negrito groups and Palawan tribes


And were not Bi-Racial silly were MULTIRACIAL.



Reply: Lol we hang out with everybody. Why limit yourself to one group of people when you can have it all? Lol.

Filipinos are multiculturally influenced, racially tolerant and mentally independent.

Bi-racials are the half man half women that you would see walking around.

Looks like somebody wants the word "hapa" to themselves. And what do you mean hapa is only for half/half. Let me prove you wrong using a mathematic rule called "transitive rule". It goes: if A = B, and B = C, then A = C. So now: if hapas are bi-racial, and filipinos are bi-racial, then filipinos are hapas. So sorry, but no other logic will beat math logic; one plus one equals 2, no ifs or buts about it.

That's because everyone in the philippines are pretty much filipino so it wouldn't sound as special. Think of a world where everyone has super powers. It wouldn't really be super because everyone is the same. But in the US, not everyone is filipino so it's more special.

Oi. Not all Filipinos are Happa damn it!
Only 3.6% of Filipinos have European blood.
So stop saying were Hapas because only a minority of us have European blood.

shambhalista, are you in that 3.6%?

What I know that is im 1/4 negrito, 1/4 malay, 1/4 South Indian, 1/4 Spanish.

Pinoy is like this

lol, that's so true. my step grandma is Filipino and she's a mix of everything, but she says she's 100% Filipino.
bigaznsinger just has something wrong with him.

fu-k is a hapa does that apply to japanese only

we could use a mod to clean up this crap

You're just jealous because a filipino looks more korean than you. We all know how japanese want to look korean.

you're pulling stuff out of your butt again.
you can't think of anymore insults, can you?

Nice. So fellow hapa, have you decided which race you plan on making friends with?

Are you on your computer continuously clicking on refresh? How the heck did you respond so fast? Anyways, I don't remember insulting you. You're the only one doing the insulting around here. I tell how filipinos are bi-racial, and you come out here and deny us our right of being called hapas. Chillax. I don't even know why you name yourself hapagirl when you're japanese.

you're filipino, and he's very multi-racial.
not hapa.





i have a killer fast internet connection.
I'm half Japanese, I'm Hapa....duh.

you're not biracial...if you're only like 1/64 something, it doesn't count.

half japanese and half chinese isn't bi-racial. And yes, even if lesser than 1/64, it's bi-racial. "bi" means two...DUH.

where the heck did you get get 1/2 chinese from?!?!
im 1/2 japanese, 1/2 white.


and no it doesnt.
only an idiot would think that....

Ah, so I was right. You feel satisfaction from being able to call yourself hapa, and don't want more people to be able call themselves hapa; you want that privilege just to yourself huh. You shouldn't keep your fellow asians down. You must grab them by the hand and help them rise up. Us hapas have to stick together.

a hapa is some who is half asian/pacific islander half something else.

if you were half Filipino, half whatever, I wouldn't care if you said you were, but you're not.
stop trying to be exotic.

YOU ARE NOT HAPA. YOU ARE NOT KOREAN.
DEAL WITH IT.

seriously doubting this guy is filipino

He is waaaaaay too much fussing about race than any two normal filipinos combined.

Please. Theres over 2 million filipinos in America. Filipinos are fu-ken mongoloid. You dont look anything else beside mongoloid. Filipinos are nothing but a bunch of caucasian wannabes which is why no race respects you people.

lol, have you been picked on a lot by filipinos there?

don't worry, those flips don't hate you at all, maybe you look so retarded thus the reason why they pick on you.

First of all, I know I'm not korean. I just look like one...eventually. And all filipinos do look exotic, which is even more reason why filipinos are hapa because hapas look exotic. So with transitive rule: if hapas are exotic looking, and filipinos are exotic looking, then filipinos are hapas. Now I'm confused whether you're still arguing with me or if you are just helping me prove my point.

you're an idiot.
I'm not talking about looks.

you're trying to be something you're not.
you're a fake.

sigh. I guess we will finally succomb to becoming a troll cesspit.

LMAO! Luckily, most Filipinos have common sense and don't believe any of this BS.

As for the OP, why don't you go back to masturbating to Spanish ancestors...

everyone has a little half in them because in the ancient world there were many ethnics that were disolved by the ethnics we have today.

+1

.lol.

i think what you are is highly influenced by what area you come from.

for example there are probably areas in the philippines where there are some traces of arab blood.

Well I'm actually only half Filipino but I'm half Chinese so I'm still purely Asian

I don't see the big deal about being half and half anyway

People need to stop putting hapa Asians or biracial people on pedestals - they're still only people

It's true a lot of the hottest people out there are half like Halle Berry, Alicia Keys, Tyson Beckford, Misa Campo etc. but not all hapas turn out to be very pretty, haha

It's a skewed viewpoint and a myth pretty much like how all Brazilian chicks are hot
