The Mexicans of The East. They look more Mexican than Asian. They are lazy like Mexicans. They sound like Mexicans when they talk. Their country is rife with corruption like Mexico. Their food gives you diarrhea like Mexican food. The women dress like little hoochie Mexican putas. Filipinos are Mexican

inhabitant from the Phillipines

1) A Tagalog.

2) The Tagalog language.

3) The Tagalog national identity of the Philipines.

4) A Spanish colonization word for people from the Philipines, not a word of indigenous origin.

A Filipino is what you can when you mix a Spanish person with an Asian person.

1. A Tagalog colonial master of the Phillipines.

2. Any non-Tagalog individual of the Phillipines who has subordinated him/herself to Tagalogs and embraced the Tagalog national identity (Filipino) as his/her own.

Ilocanos, Bisayans (Visayans), and Pampangos, amongst other indigenous and non-indigenous ethnic groups from the Phillipines, sacrificed their own ethnic identities when they chose to be a part of the Tagalogs' Filipino national movement.

Uh, damn. It's pretty hard to like actually group filipinos in one race. They a little bit of everything. Ancestors come everywhere from China to Spain to Australia to wherever and gives the people there a cool multicultural feel. I myself am half pinoy, and lemme tell you, that particular side is so amazingly different than my white sided family, I friggin get culture shock after an annual trip to the filipinos in Cali.

Filipinos came from a mixture of Asian, European, and American peoples--the Negritos, Indonesians, Malays, Chinese, Indians, Arabs and other Asians; The Spaniards, British and other Europeans; the Mexicans and Americans of South and North America.
According to Dr. H. Otley Beyer, noted American anthropologist, the racial ancestry of Filipinos is as follows: Malay - 40%; Indonesian - 30%; Chinese - 10%, Indian (Hindu) - 5%, European & American - 3%, and Arab - 2%.
Beneath the veneer of Hispanic, Mexican and American heritage, the people, in heart and in spirit, are Asians. they are Asian in race and in geography with an indestructible Asian heritage.
The warmth and natural hospitality of the nation's Filipinos today, is known throughout the world. The 11 cultural, linguistic and racial groups endow the Filipino people with varying customs and traditions. In spite of their diversity, Filipinos have basically two dominant traits: a love of family and a strong religious faith.
