Is Class Discrimination Common Among Filipinos?

[_Cathy_]

FAs discriminate also, they encounter a lot of DHs in their flights back to the Phil. A true story I heard from an FA, in a flight back from London:
DH: (in a British accent) Ms, can I have a glass of woatah please?
FA: (knowing DH yun) Pardon? What is it you want?
DH: A glass of woatah?
FA: what? What's woatah?
DH: Tubig
FA: Ah, water!!! Tubig lang pala di pa sabihin! (Sabay irap)

Tama naman si FA. Hahaha.

Wala sa class yan. You tend to be who you are in the environement that shaped you. It's more prevalent in the "economically" challenged sector of society, not just in the Philippines. Panget environment breeds panget people. Walang breeding.

FA knew naman what woatah really is, gusto lang nya magpaka totoo yung DH. She just hated it that there are some DHs that are so immersed in the country they work in, yumabang na. Pero pilya talaga yung FA na yun.

recent flight.

FA: mam (slang) noodles or fish
Passenger next to me: "PIS"
ME: Laughing inside [emoji28]

Now that is clearly discrimination on the part of the FA, she knows pala, why not respect it?

To me it seems like the FA is thinking, DH ka lang naman pa wota wota ka pa.

Daming ganyan, indi lng DH, some went to Manila or nag abroad lng for a few years pagbalik ng probinsya or pinas eh di na marunong mag tagalog, pero bilib ako sa mga balikbayan natin who speaks tagalog or their native dialect kahit na nasa ibang bansa na sila.

It's not pinoy lng naman who discriminate their fellowmen, sa China ganun din, they tend to discriminate those who's from the smaller provinces, like if the person is from Shanghai, they tend to look down those who live in other smaller cities. My shipper kasi madaldal, told me she used to have a BF who's from Shanghai, the guys parents does not approve of their relationship bcoz she's only from a small town, the guy sometimes will ask her to wait outside of their house, ayaw man lng daw siya papasukin ng bahay, now the girl is a multi millionaire na, owns a shipping company, lots and lots of businesses, she's now in Harvard studying masters degree, that guys maybe is banging his head right now.

I don't know if the clothes profiling is widespread. I went to the Mall of Asia during my visit to the PH a few years ago. I wore denim shorts and a plain t-shirt plus an old scruffy pair of Reeboks (with ankle socks). ;) All the clerks I talked to were courteous and helpful. Not once did I feel ignored.

Filipinos don’t even speak their native tongue in their own country, like me now in this forum.
Pero, tagalog ako makipagusap. I have a British surname & my roots in RP go back in the Spanish occupation. I am mestizo looking, but I’d rather speak tagalog & I am very nationalistic.

Maaaybe. That or it's because I have my wife's nephew with me and he's better dressed than I am.

just like what ULS said; mestizos looks 'mayaman' even with their plain clothes on, even more how you talked.
