I enjoy Filipinos who still speak Spanish, they are so cool. It's mostly the older folk but they are good people.

Who ever is from a country that was colonized by Spain is Hispanic,..
the spaniards had a habit of mixing with the locals no matter who they were.
So filipinos are the asian hispanics of Latinasia

[AztecWanker]

From my knowledge, Hispanics are spanish speaking people of Latin America (carribbean, north, central and south america) of Spanish descent.

Well terms like Hispanic or Latino do not specifically refer to race therefore an Asian can be considered hispanic if the individual identifies as such. Filipinos have also been influenced by Spanish/Mexican culture to a certain degree- from their language, food, to religion.

[MaD RoBoT]

Pinoys are more Americanized rather than Hispanic in terms of culture influence

Probably because americans introduced democracy to our lifestyle

Spain treated us as lowlife indios

just my 2 cents
