Well well well.it looks like Iīve ruffled some feathers! Maybe it was my comments about shabu-smoking contests, runway freak shows, or skinny fat girls, but it looks like Iīm striking a nerve in the insecure Asian modeling industry. Iīve received a couple of nasty e-mails from girls that recently public facial that *attempt* to put me in my place about my attitude toward professional models here. By the tone, itīs more of a defense written by models here in the Philippines who might have stumbled upon my site. This is your lucky day girls.rather than put your misspelled, three sentence e-mails public facial online, showing the might of your 50 word vocabulary, Iīll just respond in general here. That way your feelings can be saved.

As Iīve said before, there is a colonial mentality in the Philippines. Basically if you have whiter skin than white people and are over 5ī7 tall, you public facial are considered perfect even if your face isnīt balanced or if you have no muscle tone. Now mind you that everyone has good features and bad features, and I have my share of bad features. Furthermore, I canīt fault those individuals who exploit the colonial mentality and make a great public facial deal of money in the modeling industry here. But at least be honest about your limitations girls. Iīm honest about mine. I know that no modeling agencies will look at me here in the Philippines because Iīm only 5ī4 and have relatively dark skin. My foreigner friends tell me that public facial there would be endless work for me in the States in the fitness modeling industry due to my muscles, long hair, and high cheekbones. Furthermore, they tell me that the models working here (mostly foreigners as in half-white Filipina-Americans or Filipina-Australians) canīt cut it in their home countries, i.e. donīt public facial get any work and have to come here for relatively much lower paydays. Well no kidding. Judging by the amount of time these girls spend on their actual physical preparation, itīs no surprise to me. But then again drinking until 3 am at Greenbelt while chain-smoking to stay thin is public facial considered training.after all, you need to be social to make sure you sleep with the right modeling agency producers or judges.

Itīs often said that Jasmine Trias, the American Idol finalist, wouldnīt even make it past the first round in a singing contest here. Itīs not because she doesnīt public facial have the voice, as itīs clear that she sings very well. Itīs rather because she looks like a true filipina, i.e. doesnīt look like white girls. Now that she has been endorsed by the USA, she is now a superstar here. The white majority has given them their stamp of public facial approval. To clarify, Iīm saying white majority because thatīs what most Filipinos believe that this is to whom they need to appeal and thus must look like them. I know white people tend to think the opposite.they prefer exotic like Jasmine.

So I say live it up girls.enjoy your public facial time here taking away work from the native Filipinas as well as the feelings of vindication you feel by slamming me. Just be sure you keep doing it from behind the safety of your anonymous e-mail address. Your anorexic arms wouldnīt want to wrap around me in a street fight. public facial Relax.Iīm kidding.maybe :-P. I take heart in what I write though.itīs only a matter of time until the rest of the country wakes up to the fact that the exotic features is what the world really wants to see.
