OP is correct.
Philippines is extremely overrated. Largely ugly girls, shit food, low IQ population. Flip girls are easy but now the country is becoming more and more competitive and more and more expensive. It is ideal that you live here for the best results, but once you do you'll realize the pussy isn't worth it.
Local incel boizzz hate male expats that are with a girl and shit talk in their primitive garble about you. Local people are obnoxious low lives and have surprisingly high self-esteem and narcissistic behavior.
I'm noticing these monkey faced fucktards walking around like their shit don't stink because they started building some glossy buildings next to a slum. Prices are very similar to the US as well.
You can get girls here but they will be from the underclass likely. Unrefined, inelegant, simple minded.
It's also quite unsafe despite how it 'feels' or what some crusty pensioner says. Many old guys get picked off one by one because Filipinos are all about muh non-confrontational culture so they stab you in the back or shoot you in the head instead of trying to resolve issues.
It really depends on what you value. If you want to escape inceldom, it comes at a HUGE cost to your quality of life and sanity. You're a foreigner in a country that hates you being there because they cannot resolve their jealousy issues.
Monkey people will plague your fucking life with their mediocre and incompetent culture.
I couldn't take it anymore so I came back home and just kept on with my sexless NEET life. I have my fridge and TV. I live in an ok neighborhood but I'm pretty sure my parents are gonna kick me out soon if I don't find a job.
Oh and Flips smell like ass.
