    We seem to assume, and probably rightly so, that all foreigners living in Duma are males married to Filipina. Just wondering.....any Pinoy married to a foreigner lady?

    Seen One!

    :smile: UJ! a couple of weeks ago we were in Scoobies, there was a middle aged Pinoy with what I think was an Australian blond haired lady of about mid 30's, Just sat having lunch as we were. I mentioned your post to my Wife and she tells me that they are Quite regular there, they sit up the top end by the coffee counter. My sister-in-law tells us that she has seen a Ginger haired foreign woman and a pinoy quite often in Lee Plaza coffee hall. seems that there are one or two about. I will definitely keep my eyes open and let you know if i see or hear of more.

    I know at least 5 long-nose western ladies living in Dumaguete married to Pinoy. Also other Asian ladies married to to local men is not that uncommon.

    Hey hawaiidiver2, I see that you, just like me, have connected this thread to the one from patO about age difference......:wink:
    I've got the feeling that if a young pinoy marries an older western lady, he's perceived as a smart geezer, while if the same was done by a pinay, young lady married to westerner old long nose, she would be perceived as a slut gold digger.
    This is the same the world over though, nothing new.....give some examples:
    J. Howard Marshall II . . . Anna Nicole Smith- 63 years difference
    Ronnie Wood . . . Ekaterina Ivanova (Rolling Stones band member)- 41 years
    Woody Allen . . . Soon-Yi Previn - 35 years
    Rod Stewart . . . Penny Lancaster - 27 years
    And the list goes on.....
