Nothing anybody can do about. It is a vicious-cycle.At least. Filipinos are just expressive. Typical Pinoy. But not all Filipino’s in general.
I am an Asian and I would like to apologize in behalf of the Pinoys who had negative comments on her. Color of the skin doesn’t matter. She is beautiful and black is beautiful. No racism and no to bullying!
