Having colonial mentality represents a misguided non-white person (commonly a Filipino, born or living in a white country) who is extremely white washed and conforms to white social settings due to their insecurity amongst his or hers ethnic or cultural identity and history.
The background of colonisation offers colonised people to perceive that their original nation was historically inferior since the Western cultures were able to triumphantly colonise, overall settling the idea of Europeans being superior. Effectively, this mentality causes members to unknowingly or purposefully reject and criticise anything topic-related to their ethnicity or culture as they may psychologically desire acceptance within their white society.
Attitudes + behaviours may include:
- Disliking/avoiding traditions
- Eating with European cutlery
- Dressing in fashion related to anything but their heritage
- Hating your (dark) skin tone, often using products that whiten or bleach ones skin tone
- Discriminating people of their ethnicity/culture, criticising their appearance or customs
- Values the European lifestyle and people
- Will be in a relationship with a person of European descent

Filipino teen with colonial mentality:
1) "Spain was able to colonise our islands, claim then establish it as the Philippines, therefore their domination makes me appreciate Western cultures because they are superior."
2)"I hate my cultural identity because we are politically and economically imperfect. This means people will think I'm lame."

Get the Colonial Mentality mug.What happens after someone has been blowing smoke up my ass. Rather than getting a real answer, all you get from a discussion with a smoke blower is a smokey colon.
"Hey, Billy, did you talk to the boss about getting a raise?"
"Yep."
"Did he give you the money?"
"Nope. He just gave me the old smokey colon."
"Yep."

Get the spelling coconut mug.Used to describe a female during PMS when she is acting completely irrational and crazy. A perfectly sane girl can turn into an absolute psychopath who will randomly cry uncontrollably for reasons they do not even know but of course it will be the guys fault. When females are experiencing this crazy coconut syndrome they should be avoided at all cost for at least 3-4 days, do not communicate with them through any medium as they might unleash on you at any time. There is no known cure for this crazy coconut syndrome, yet some scholars maintain that chocolate, warm drinks, hot water bottles, bunches of flowers and saying lies like "yes your right, yes it my fault, its ok that your like this" seems to calm the beasts.
