  • 21. Because he's a boy

    As girls we have always found that things were very different compared to our male siblings, our parents gave them a little more leniency. Which was frustrating but we found our ways around it. 😝

    In this episode we discuss growing up girls vs boys in a filipino household, with our good friend Ryo. Are boys and girls equal? Or do males have it easy? 🤔

About 22 Chismis

From the publisher's feed

It’s important to learn about culture especially somewhere as diverse as the city of London. Only recently people are starting to highlight the fact that there is a Filipino culture & having the desire to actually learn about it. Whether it be perceived as good or bad, it’s still our culture that should be embraced. Being born and raised as a girl in East London, we go through and grow through it differently, if you’re intrigued on how. Give us a listen!
