@prau123. 25% is the total for Micronesian, German, Mexican, and portuguese so half of them aren't even european. Micronesian are austronesians very similar to Filipinos. And they all individually only make up over 6% so it is very very negligible.
I am still majority Fiipino Auatronesian, followed by Spanish, the others negligible.
Also we no longer use any of those terms. We are just Filipinos. Last, even if I have those ancestors, it doesnt mean that I am that percentage, I couldve gotten the 6% Mexican but it could also be 1%, because your parents don't distribute the genes equally.
I don't know if I have Spanish from the Micronesian ancestry, but I got the German from it. My great grandfather was half Micronesian and half German raised by Capuchin priests and smuggled to the Philippines when war broke out in Micronesia and killed his father.
That's why my family doesn't have tribal mentality, we are Filipino first, mestizo, Tagalog, waray, and ilokano a far 2nd. My Filipino is also mixed, I am equal Tagalog/ilokano and a quarter waray.
We recognize we are mixed but only like a tagalog with Capuano roots sees themselves. We have mestizo food but we also eat all the Filipino food and culture. Also mestizos are well integrated here, and intermix heavily. My grandmother for example has no Filipino blood but married a pure filipino. I think foreigners just don't understand how it is here and try to apply their racism here.
I dont how mestizos in the Philippines couldve treated filams badly, they're world's away and filams tend to be more American than Filipino anyway. Chinese Filipinos and even koreans raised here tend to be more Filipino than filams with the food, culture, language, and accent even.
