Are Filipinos the most good-looking Asians?

Are Filipinos Considered the Most Good-Looking Asians

Beauty is subjective and varies across cultures. Filipinos are often praised for their diverse features influenced by Spanish and Chinese ancestry, but attractiveness varies individually. The idea of the most good-looking Asian is subjective and depends on personal preferences and cultural standards.

Many of us are Spanish-Chinese mix, which according to a random Dutch guy is "always a good mix."

He told me I'm handsome and when I said I have spanish and chinese genes, he said, "no wonder."

So did you offer to give him a handjob after he complimented you?

SMH, the colonial mentality is REAL. What's wrong w/ Filipinos from the indigenous mountain provinces or the Southern provinces of Malay descent?

My father's from the North (dark-skinned, oilier complexion, black hair now all grey), my mother's of Spanish descent from the South (light-skinned, freckles, brown hair). I never liked it when I visited back to the Phils & my mother's friends would comment on my fairness compared to my siblings & would ask my sister why she's so dark. That's so fucked up.

i don't think it's colonial mentality. asians outside the philippines do compliment us for our good looks, they say. and yes that random dutch guy also thinks the spanish-chinese mix is a good one.

i agree with you though. i think it's wrong to tell someone "you're so dark" but it's another story when somebody has this racial preference whatsoever. i just think that spanish-chinese mix is what makes Filipinos unique among Asians.

It actually is. Asians outside of the Philippines are not exempted from this mentality.

so you mean to say white people or those with white genes aren't really good-looking? can you explain why most actors in hollywood are white?

It kind of runs congruently w/ what Dreamyboy mentioned before (and I echo & agree with as well) on how Kazakhs are attractive because they're smack dab in the middle of Eurasia. I do think mixed raced people are incredibly attractive and it really doesn't matter which mix for me. My last GF was half-Welsh, half-Japanese and the one before that was Afro-Cuban & Mexican.

But the colonial mentality in terms of colorism does affect our perception of aesthetics. It really runs deep in society.

maybe you're right about that... but i personally think i'm exempted from this. i personally think mixed eurasians are the most good-looking. for example, just look at that china crisis lead vocalist... i'm not sure if he has asian genes but looks to me he's part british, part asian.

why i'm saying this? because i don't think all white people are good-looking... just some... specifically, those who do not have very strong facial traits...

giving a white person some asian genes tempers whatever facial traits white people have that one might consider "too much." that's why i personally think eurasians, including tornatras (filpinos with both spanish and chinese genes), are attractive.

so you mean to say white people or those with white genes aren't really good-looking? can you explain why most actors in hollywood are white?

I was talking about the colonial mentality. That doesn't mean whether or not white people are good-looking, in fact it has nothing to do with that. It means that a lot of Asians hold the view of how white genes are "perfection" or the ideal - which really is far from ideal because it's really just like any other gene pool. Our colonial masters have a lot to do with ingraining this mindset in us - and western media doesn't help either.

Most actors in Hollywood are white because that's the way Hollywood producers want it. Do you know how many decades it's taken for PoC actors to break the mould and come out on top in Hollywood? Many, many decades.

The white man has the Pinkerton Syndrome/yellow fever, Asians in Asia have the colonial mentality. The only exception are the Japanese.
