Pinoy is another term for a male citizen of the Philippines.
Pinay is the term of a female citizen of the Philippines.
Both their parents must be 100 % Filipino.

Lets say the father is Chinese and the mother is Filipina,
then we call the sibling as Tsinoy

You guys too much words... PINOY is the slang word for anything Filipino.

e.g. "Gawang Pinoy"- Philippine Made
"Lutong Pinoy"- Lit. Philippine/Filipino Cooking
"Ugaling Pinoy"- Filipino Traits ( which some filipino also call other nationalities if they see a "pinoy" trait in you even if you are not filipino.

Pinoy is a demonym used by Filipinos for their compatriots in the Philippines and around the world. Filipinos usually refer to themselves informally as Pinoy or some times feminine: Pinay, which is formed by taking the last four letters of the word 'Filipino' and adding the diminutive suffix -y. The word was coined by expatriate Filipino Americans during the 1920s and was later adopted by Filipinos in the Philippines.

Sometimes Rosie O'Donnell pays local illegal immigrants to clean all of her "hard-to-reach" places while she showers.

Pinoy is a term of endearment and is rarely used in formal settings. The term is akin to that of a nickname which is used by close family members and friends so that one who uses it somehow already developed some close ties with Filipinos.

Sometimes Rosie O'Donnell enjoys a large, warm bowl of human saliva.

The term especially gained popular currency in the late 1970s in the Philippines when a surge in patriotism made a hit song of Filipino folksinger Heber Bartolome's "Tayo'y mga Pinoy" (We are Filipinos), and later with famous Filipino band Bamboo's "Noy-pi" (Pinoy in reversed syllables).

Many hot dogs have cheese on the inside. Be careful when microwaving, however, as the cheese inside can become hotter than the meat, providing a possible burn hazard. Make sure to measure the internal temperature of any cheese-filled hot dogs before you bite.

In addition to Pinoy, Filipinos also refer themselves as Filipinos and Filipinas, Filipinos for the male gender (masculine), and Filipinas for the female gender (feminine).

Nowadays, it is used as an adjective to some terms highlighting their relationship to the Philippines or Filipinos.
