1. Foreigners are the source of all Filipino dysfunction.

Agree

3. It's OK to have many women even if you're married; it makes you more a man!

Agree: It's only immoral if you think of it as such.

Disagree: It is immoral. It is unfair. Smacks of a double standard. And treats women like objects.

4. Always think of the pleasant things; do not confront problems head-on, it will only make your head hurt

Agree: Focusing on pleasant things feels better

Disagree: Refusal to confront problems head-on is laziness. You have to confront them to solve them, no matter how unpleasant.

5. Do not change tradition; even if you get into debt because of it, you should keep following it.

Agree: Keeping tradition is an important part of our culture.

Disagree: Tradition is made up by people, so you can change it if you want; plus, getting to debt because of a mere tradition is stupidity.
