In this page i will set filipino culture and traits
Respect is one of the Filipino good traits. Among this is the use of "Po" and "opo"
are common expressions of respect for one's elders in Tagalog culture. Respect in the culture between young and old is acted
out though cultural ritual by taking the elders right hand and applying to the forehead of you. Debt of Gratitude is
owed by one to a person who has helped him through the trials he had undergone. There is a local saying that goes: 'One, who does not look back to where he started, will not get to where he is going. Other expression of
respect is concern of self image, and word of honor. Filipino is also known of being hospitable.
Family, close family ties if one of the Filipino traits.
Some Filipino’s live near their families or even live with their parent although they have their own family. Filipino
families are religious. Therefore divorced and abortion is not legal.
Courtship in the Philippines is indirect and serious and unlike in
some Western societies. In courting a woman he must be careful and pleasant in order not to be seen as too aggressive. At
first the will go out in a friendly date with their friends and they can decide later if they will go out with them selves
but it will still a friendly date. A man who is interested to a girl must visit him in the girl’s house. Some guys even
bring present to the girl’s family. In some place serenade is used to show that they are interested to the girl. But
in spite of this the girls will play hard to get. This is to test if the man is really sincere to his intentions. Although
the courtship this time is not the same as the courtship before but some traits are still relevant. Today’s courting
involved modern technology like chatting, or exchanging sms. Hehehehehe
Festival, Filipino is rich in festival. Here some of the well-known festival is Sinulog festival of Cebu, Ati-atihan festival
of Aklan, Dinagyang festival of Ilo-Ilo, Mascara festival of Bacolod, Penangbenga
Festival of Baguio, Kadayawan Festival of Davao, Pintados festival of Tacloban, and of course
Pasaka festival of Tanauan. Hehehehehe
