Why aren’t Filipinos fat like Americans?

Because redneck white trash is prone to gaining weight and being complete total fat asses.

You know why.

We're naturally thin.

I've attended parties thrown by Filipino friends. Tons of food, fish, rice,pork,lumpia, and pancita. What they don't have is dairy and heavy desserts. Dessert is more likely to be some kind of fruit salad.

All the Filipinos I know are chonky!

Most of the ones I know ARE hefty. Or gay. Usually both.

I have never met a Filipino man who WASN’T gay.

The Filipina nurses where I work are constantly bringing in señorita bread, sans rival, silvanas, plus more combinations of condensed milk, rice flour, and coconut than I ever thought possible. They even set up a halo-halo bar for someone's birthday.

Who say not fat?

They are! Every Filipino I know is overweight. Not morbidly obese but definitely extra lbs.

There are LOTS of fat filipino people. Do you not know any people outside of your own ethnic group IRL, OP?

Two Jolibees here in Houston for the fatties tired of McDonalds.

My sister in law is a hot, ageless, hard working Fillipina nurse. Her son and daughter are fat and lazy 30somethings. They have the doughy genes of my brother though.

Have you ever seen Pinoys' bodies? They are not fat, but I don't know, they are not lean and lithe either. Probably the ugliest body shape in the world as they eat too much food made with coconut.

Bad bodied where?

Ewwwwwwww

The men are usually selling their ass. The women hard working & petite or lazy & sloppy fat.

r15. WTF? I think thats kinda hot...

R17 It is. R15 is just a prude elder gay.

R1 - I don't know man, out where I live in Transylvania they are pretty white and fair and many come from villages. They consume KFC (a bucket at a time), McDonald's with a load of mayo and fries, and loads of bread, sweets, butter, bacon, etc. Yet, they are soooooooo skinny, that even pre-pandemic at size 6, my roommate couldn't find clothes. These women are flipping size 00 and about 5' 8". Unbelievable...as for the men...they wolf down a whole pizza and 2 beers and nothing, not an ounce of fat on their bodies. We Americans and some of the Dutch who were at the company pre-pandemic were constantly pissed off to the point we stopped eating in the kitchen with them. We were killing ourselves with salads and the gym and these bitches ate like pigs and still remained rail thin. Worse!!! Every time I run into a colleague or you talk to one of the locals about how the pandemic affected them they say "yeah...so stressed I lost 8 kg". Ughhhhhhh....

What's next?

"Why do Mexicans have perfect teeth?"

"Why do Peruvians have flat heads and Jewish noses?"

OP has never seen a Vic Fabe video.

R18 it's an EWWW for the flabby body. Don't be too dumb.

Oh, hello, you Pinoy whore.

They gorge on KFC and McDonalds in Transylvania?

R23 - you bitches are behind the times....and Pizza Hut. And they have local themes like "Vlad the Impaler's Brisket Sandwich" at one of the local American diners, which is called Jaxx and has darts, chicken pot pie, meatloaf and gravy, banana splits, and other things that would give the older DL-ers the first orgasm they've had in decades and they don't have to see fat people either.

They aren't glued to electronic devices all day?

R25 - yes they are...so are folks in many places with rich foods and yet we got the rotten end of the stick somehow.

Dey getting fat Maury.

Vic Fabe video

Is Vic Fabe the pinoy Beefcake Hunter?

They’re very much fat in America.

Mist Filipinos I know in the healthcare fields are overweight or obese. And if they’re thin when they’re young they’ll be fat by middle age, it’s in their genes.

I've never met a thin Filipino.

I blame balut.

Filipino Titas - very funny.

I also agree with R21 - what Filipinos are you seeing? Teens? I grew up in Los Angeles and most are fat and worse, many hate that they deposit a lot on the face. Seriously. Slim people are usually Thai, Chinese, Japanese and Eastern Europeans. At least until they get over 55. Otherwise, Northwestern European Americans, Hispanics, Filipinos and a large percentage of African Americans struggle with weight and really have to put in an effort to lose what my roommate calls "this damned American plastic fat"

Filipinos, generally speaking, have squat endomorph (thick skeletal frame and musculature) body types. The ones who don’t are mostly mesomorphs. There aren’t a lot of variables in Filipino body types, and definitely not many ectomorphs (slim skeletal frame and musculature). Also, given that they’re also short, it lends the typical Filipino body type a squat look. Even my Filipino friends will be the first to make fun of themselves saying this.

Genetically South East Asians are blessed with natural thin skinny build. No need to debate.

DLers knowledge of basic nutrition is at times astounding.

Americans are fat because they snack all the time.

Yes, fast food is unhealthy and overly caloric

But the real culprit are all those high sugar sodas and high carb chips people suck down between meals. Not to mention candy bars or (worse) candy bars disguised as healthy snacks (looking at you Kind bars and your 16 grams of sugar )

That' why Filipinos and R19's Romanians are thin--they don't snack the way Americans do.

They snack on dried salmon skins and bark.

The Filipinos I've known have been very short, and stocky to fat. Not slim.

R1 Not in Europe. Speak for yourself

That should read “ There aren’t a lot of variations in Filipino body types”

R38 Yes, there is most certainly snacking, but there is also the content of your food: fatty, unhealthy and that only cuts hunger for a few hours. Europeans don't eat your fast food all the time and their food is a thousand times healthier (taste better), and there is also the fact that in the big European cities people walk a lot more than Americans who do everything by car. People in Europe use the subway, they walk or bike everyday.

They're half Spanish, half Mongolian, and half Hawaiian; of course there's lots of diversity!

This research article dispels “Filipinos are thin” notion. According to the article “ A study using the WHO Asian BMI cut-off points showed that the Filipino American overweight/obesity rate (78.6%) was higher than non-Hispanic Whites (53.8%), African Americans (64.9%), and Hispanics (69.7%) [8]. In another study, the obesity rate for Filipino American men was 34.5%, which was similar to the national obesity rate (34.9%)”

Also, Filipino immigrants come to the US snd eat fat so they get fat. “The caloric and carbohydrate intake were normal; however, fat intake was increased. The BMI and waist circumference showed substantial difference when using the International and Asian guidelines to determine obesity. The results highlight the increased health risks of Filipino American immigrants including a high dietary fat intake and an increased obesity rate.”

I ❤️ Filipinos

I think you mean "Filipinx", OP!

Are you looking to be canceled?

Filipinos point with their lips

Americans snack 24/7 on junk food.

Filipino-American here, you must not know many Filipinos. We are prone to pear bods, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, etc.

Filipino food is carb heavy (mounds of rice at every meal), fried everything, salty everything, and carbs galore.

The culture is sedentary and not health conscious despite so many Filipino nurses. Exercise is rare (what kind of nurse working 18 hour shifts has time and energy to go to both Jollibee, make it to the local Catholic church, and work out???). Food is life.

I literally have to starve myself and workout religiously. Looking at a Jollibee makes me balloon up like a bowling ball.

R50 - yes, my Filipina and Filipino friends all work long hours and, for them, food is the recreation. 0n the other hand, those who are more sophisticated struggle with the way the weight spreads to the face.

R6 = nuts.

They are a fat ugly race that looks like they just climbed down from the jungle trees. And always gay and desperate for White cock.

R53 = disgusting racism and mean.

Huh? All the Filipinos I know in NYC are overweight.

I see groups of the young people, and they seem to be active, playing volleyball and roaming Central Park in happy large wholesome groups. They are slender.

But once they hit 30 or so, they get portly.

On the whole, I love the Filipino people. They love to laugh and are very religious and hard-working. At least the ones I know. And they would never let you go hungry. Very eager to share their cuisine.

You love the very religious?

.....

Filipinos are fat, even the kids are. In their 20s and 30s they gain fat viscerally as opposed to hips, so the fat is in the tummy so they start wearing loose tops to hide it. Their arms and legs still look skinny for a while. In their 40s they are fat everywhere.

R58 - a young model who clearly busts his butt in the gym is always an exception to average people. No bueno...

Ever race has thin, fat, beautiful, ugly, stupid, intelligent, etc people. It’s completely stupid to conclude blacks have the biggest cock and Every bottom desires black cocks. Is it reasonable to conclude that Asians are undoubtedly the most intelligent human race ever created by god? is it acceptable to conclude that Brazilian men the most handsome men on earth? Is it right to conclude that China and America are the most evil countries in the world?

No. It's Switzerland and Norway. And that's a fact.

My favorite gay Filipino (-American)
