http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mestizo

I dunno why the hell is that person making a big deal about "mestizos" when mestizos in the Philippines are seen as Filipinos that are ethnically malay. I mean if you are a mestizo, and one of your parents is Cebuano, then you are Cebuano. This is in the Philippines.

Kanlungan
It seems that it can be edited by anyone who registers(registration is free). Deletion of the site is better. My Encarta is a lot more reliable. LOL

I found out that they were written by Pinoys who are non-experts.. OMG, are Pinoys starting to be racists and xenophobics?
redhotchili
Errr..

Either I'm slow OR that I actually agree with them because haha I see the "racist" points. Paki-highlight na lang dito, please? embarassedlaugh.gif2 icon_redface.gif kiss.gif

EDIT:
@Kanlungan: That's why I hate reading articles online, there are lots of... "smart" people around along with their... indigestible theories. biggrin.gif
Ek-ek
Sometimes very offensive din yung mga comments noong iba.
Kanlungan
Yup. Can't they make it a little more 'milder'

wikipedia is not a reliable source of factual information...there are many things i disagree simply because of the fact that the know-it-all guy simply does not know what he is talking about embarassedlaugh.gif2 ..and his gathering of information to which he backs his evidence up are iether obsolete or unapplicable to the subject. I am in the Philippines all my life and I dont need to have any web geek tell me what am i after reading a book or two about Filipinos who grew up outside their native country..arggh! hehehe!
Kanlungan
Kung sabagay, tama ka mulawin. Nakatira tayo dito sa Pilipinas, sila Hindi. LOL
