Philippines, land of Single mother
During Covid 19, when I was living extremely alone, a friend of mine and I discussed various subjects since I started writing the book, "Reluctant Father," which signifies East Pakistan, renaming Bangladesh, which would be 2021, exactly 50 years.
To make the book more meaningful, I decided to travel to Pakistan, where the Two-Nation theory was delivered, and India, where the first riot started, known as the Calcutta riots and make YouTube videos.
As I am not a YouTube video vlogger, a guy advised me in a restaurant that I could find a good sole vlogger video editor from the Philippines. Then I searched and learned interesting facts from the interesting country of the Philippines.
The Philippines is the only Christianity country in Asia. This is because of the Spanish Catholic reign in The Philippines for more than 300 years. As we know from History, during the Spanish Inquisition, Spanish colonies were forcing people to convert to Roman Catholicism, unlike Islam.
The Philippines has a degree to which sexual pleasure is in the Philippines nationally recognized due to Western and USA influence and retirees' hubs, unlike in much of the Asian culture.
In the Philippines, men who impregnate women likely walk away from their moral, social, religious, or legal responsibilities. Filipino men can easily abandon their families, which they frequently do because there is no social, religious, cultural, or legal framework to deter it like in other Asian countries.
The Philippines government's primary objective is to bring more tourists into the Philippines. The recent Philippine tourism industry generated 400 billion pesos (7.18 billion U.S. dollars) in revenue in the first ten months of 2023. And women are giving more births to facilitate military recruitment in the country. Pretty interesting policy.
In the Philippines, no legal divorce, and annulment is a long and expensive process that many can not afford, meaning that many women are stuck in reluctant marriages, which make them make money by selling sex. In the Philippines, finding a job is not easy. Women simply live separately and move on with their lives.
Men in this situation often end up with new girlfriends, but for women, it is less easy because women already have kids, and most men do not like to take the burden of single mothers with legal complexity.
One of the fascinating facts about the Philippines is that immature young boys impregnated young girls with unprotected sex. A few years ago, consensual sex for girls was at 12. Recently, the Philippines' government has raised its age of sexual consent from 12 years to 16 years.
The situation in the Philippines regarding single mothers is likely to stay the same.
Of course, the Philippines is an Asian country but alien to traditional Asian culture. It is a mixture of American and Western European culture, not Asian. However, it has some Muslims too. But I needed help finding what I was looking for.
