Filipino Romance

For better or for worse, Filipinos have a reputation for having a flair for the romantic. From the harana tradition to their appealing sense of humor, Filipino romance is a unique blend.

It makes sense because of the unique history of Filipinos. The multiple cultures that have been combined and recombined with the indigenous culture, acculturation with the many different elements of various overseas contact worker (OCW) destinations, and strong belief systems of people of Filipino descent all contribute to the ideas and idealogies most often associated with them.
