A term used to describe an
American citizen who is either from
the Philippines, someone who's ancestors are from the Philippines. Some are dual citizens, others are either permanent resident or citizens only of the United States. A true Filipino American has learned to love both the Philippines and the U.S., embracing their heritage but taking pride in being an American. Other stupid pricks that decide to
bash on one country or another any chance they get are not considered Filipino Americans, they are called assholes. Others discriminate against Filipino Americans because of the stereotypes that surround them, but they can go fuck themselves.
