For a rigidly Catholic country where divorce is still illegal, they're oddly tolerant of homosexuals and trannies. Like Thailand, they're absolutely rotten with ladyboys. I think the difference between there and the US is that their trannies still recognize that your gender is fixed at birth and they're just playing dress up.
I'm actually surprised they would air a commercial like this.
The philippines: Where western morals were inculcated for over 300 years and yet they are still unmistakably Asian.
I suspect the reason for the sex role deviation comes from a lesser need for fighting age men due to natural protective barriers. The Philippines had many tribes and conflicts, but the vast chain of islands kept people separate to a degree.
Likewise Thailand is surrounded by mountains. Invading Thailand is presumably such a chore no one ever has -- and I don't think it is because of their military prowess.
For that reason I think sexual deviancy was always tolerated a bit more than in the west, where boys needed to be fighters to protect. Its only in the past few generations where the abundance and western influence has started to push it.
