So do you read Filipino/Tagalog language? How different is Visayan from Tagalog/Filipino? (And how similar/different is Tagalog from Filipino?)

I guess many words and vocabulary have been borrowed from Spanish since for both languages?

why do you keep saying I'm from Manila. Here's a helpful map.



So I guess everyone from Masbate and North are considered part of Manila. Why do you even claim to be Filipino when you only want to claim a small portion of the Philippines as the land of the beautiful Korean-looking people

Yeah, Austronesians left East Asia 5,000 years ago and kept coming. Thais left East Asia 1,000 years ago and kept coming. Which one is more recent? You yourself said that the last wave of of Austronesian was 700 years ago (and not even from East Asia, but from Borneo, long way off) So the last wave of Austronesian was only 300 years after the first wave of Thais. Again, tell me which migration is more recent...

Austronesians are a much older group in SE Asia, accept it.
there is no difference between modern wa and ancient wa...other then modern wa may have more sinid ancestry due to han interaction

modern dai are heavily mixed with chinese...even more so then the wa



modern thai people

its a whole different language....a tagalog would not understand a word if a visayan was making fun of him in visayan language

visayas is not korean looking....but plenty of korean men do look towards visayas and mindanao when looking for a wife due to the higher number of east asian looking women amongst visayans

I guess you've met ancient Wa and modern Wa and they look the same.

You say the modern Dai are mixed with Chinese, how are you so sure that the ancient Dais aren't. And how do you know that when the Dais left China starting in 1000 AD, that they didn't look like modern Dai. How do you know? They had been under Chinese control and influence for 1000 years...

And Wa are Austro-Asiatic, Dai are Tai-Kadai. They have different origins, maybe thats why they look so different today. You cant assume that Dai and Wa originally looked the same

I know that you hate Manila. But tell me what did Bicol do to you other than being Negritos (as you say) You have no reason other than the fact that they dont fit your ideal racial type. Don't you think that's a really hateful reason to want them to secede? You almost sound like Hitler. You have serious issues. Sorry that some Filipinos are a little too black, but you gotta have a better reason to kick them out

bicolanos share the same mindset as tagalogs...

and I think your a tagalog transplant in bicol...why so defensive for tagalog if your not one


tagalogs being negrito-hybrids is why I think they are a different race from me.....but their upperclass burgeoise attitude is why I want them seperated

Ati are negrito...but I have no problem with them living in Visayas


though I do have problems with arrogant tagalogs who think themselves as so superior..and continue to mismanage funds that all the money only shows in Manila and southern luzon

Same mindset? How would you know?

I dont defend Tagalogs. I defend the fact that Tagalogs dont have a certain look and Visayans have another look. Australoid-looking Filipinos dont bother me. So if you say a lot of Tagalogs look like that, that's fine. But they're not anymore Australoid-looking than Visayans. And no random pictures that you pull off the internet (and often lie about) can prove that. It's simply a myth that you've created in your head to disassociate yourselves from Filipinos who you think look inferior. You're a racial supremacist. Go get some help.

And please show me some DNA proof that Visayans have a different origin from other Filipinos. I wanna see proof that they came from East Asia in the last thousand years while other Filipinos were living there with Negritos for 4,000 years
