simple and classic is always best...

you don't want loud colored ones or those painted with fighting cocks, barrio scenes or faces of presidents... ugh...

and if you're a white dude you'll actually look better in a barong than some locals...

Leche is milk...as my kids great grandfather used to say, "leche de P**A !!"
But it was the word, bwiset I was referring to. Is that tagalog? I used to hear it in Iloilo by a very Ilonggo guy from Guimaras.

 

[rhadamantus]

well, its like a regional cuss word. bwisit is bwisit in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

for some strange reason filipinos have taken to thinking of "leche" as a major cuss word... it is spanish in origin, it means "milk"... and was probably used in the same way as "fudge" or "shoot" is used as a replacement for the F word and the S word... as a replacement for something more obscene...

personally it's that for me... spanish was my first language, learned it at the cradle before english and waaaaaaaay before tagalog... so it's still milk to me...

and a little bit more

PS
but before you get PC on my ****, no i'm not cussing...
