    Just finished this book by Stephen Leather.
    'Private Dancer' is a must read for expats..especially if you are ,thinking about having a Filippina girlfriend/wife,or have a Filippina girlfriend/wife..
    Just change all the references from Thailand to the Philippines..So true !!!.Miguel

    I stopped reading at this part so that I can ask a question before continuing.

    Sure, she was a bargirl...
    Is this book still relevant to me if I wouldn't hook up a bargirl for a girlfriend or wife?

    I agree with Dude here. I lived in Olongapo before Pinatubo erupted and had many friends who married previous rental units. Most of my friends marriages turned out badly as did my relationships. I did marry a Filipina who was not a bar girl, we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary last year.

    I just finished a book that is similar to 'PrivateDancer'...'For the Love of my Son' by Margaret Davis.. Again a must read for expats..
    Also a documentary about the same story...'A Murder in the Family'...
