[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Alive-(What Box): [qb] When it comes to Filipinos in general, I can see soemone considering them black, and likewise I can see someone considering them non-black. Those two quotes are a very contradicting pair of quotes, however. [/qb][/QUOTE]Let's remember that the aboriginal peoples of the Philippines were and still are black peoples. This was never in doubt, but then you have today's ethnic or 'typical' Filippino who along with related peoples descend from lighter Asians from further north. So it depends on the Filippino and some are no doubt mixed too but that still does not change the fact that socially speaking I am not considered black but 'brown' not just by myself but everyone who sees me, even blacks. My complexion is no different from many Mexicans. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [qb] Modern Filipinos just like modern people in many places throughout South East Asia and the Pacific, have mixed ancestries. The point being made is that even 100 years ago, there were many black natives on the islands of the Philippines, both Negrito and non Negrito. The best non contradictory way of putting it is that some Philippine people are black and some aren't. [/qb][/QUOTE]Okay and isn't that what I've been saying all along?? Perhaps someone else should try telling you know who that I am among those that are non-black. I believe this thread has been corrupted enough by off-topic nonsense. The original purpose of this thread was lost when the troll who answered began calling me a "black Filipino" unfortunately some of you gullible foolish fish bit the bait and let the troll free to watch you squabble over what color I am. :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
