I've found it's almost impossible to have a logical argument let alone negotiate with a Filipino once they feel you have "disrepected" them and believe me that isn't hard to do. I know this for a fact because I'm half Filipino (Ifugao blood) half Australian, most of my extended family has moved here (from Sablan, a small town in Benguet Province about a 25 minute jeepney ride from Baguiao City) and I've been there myself. Now if you feel this is racist go and ask twenty Filipino Manny Pacquiao fans why the negotiations failed and see if you still have a full head of hair afterwards.
