What makes a Filipino neighborhood unique?

Question

Okay, since we know what makes Filipinos unique amongst other, let me ask, if I may, what now makes the Filipino neighborhood unique? For instance, only in the Filipino neighborhood will you see a sign posted on a house gate saying 'ice for sale.' Only in the Filipino neighborhood will you find a man pushing his cart of junk to seek for more junk among households (for his junkshop), and only in the Filipino neighborhood will you find children (even adults!) bathing themselves at the street.
Can anybody help me cite some more? I need this for my project. Thanks!

Answer 1

Some filipinos don't don't have a fridge or freezer in their house.So who wouldn't enjoy a cold drink on a hot hot day.Some filipinos don't have running water in their house so they go to a place that has a water pump to get water.as far as bathing outside that's no different than you spraying yourself with a hose in your front yard or playing with that slippery water slide in your backyard.Oh at least they take a bath.. some people don't even take a bath even if they have running water in their house.Would you let your neighbor use your water to wash their car? or water their lawn? there's a good chance that you won't !cause your water bill would sky rocket. As far as the junkman goes...well Sanford and Son had a junk truck to haul things with.Not all filipinos can afford trucks so they use their primitive knowledge to make up for what they lack. Sure a man with a junk cart might look cheesy but it sure does beat carrying things on your back for miles and miles don't you think? To be honest with you I'd rather see a junkman going through my garbage than seeing some drug addict in my house taking my stuff so he can pawn it off. no offense to anyone.

Answer 2

Strange I don't remember seeing things like that when I lived in the PI. Try Jeepneys and lots of magandas (well they have magandas everywhere of course, but they're not called magandas in other countries....)

Are you serious? These are all stereotypes that fit into every culture and ethnicity. My advice for you is to read a book,do some research, and GROW UP!
