well, one as rude as you might as well be as stupid, for “filipino mythology” does exist and people like you make me gag. Our stories might not be as well documented as the greeks or the romans or and god damn egyptians, but we have preserved them through oral traditions. We told them to our children before they sleep, we told them to young teens when they would need guidance, we told them throughout centuries and believe me: we are far from forgotten. so, you want some mythology, i’ll give you some god damn mythology:
— list of all our documented and known deities
— creation myths that i myself have heard many many times from my grandparents (my grandfather mostly)
— most detailed account of the mythology in the philippines
— another great source for information about filipino mythology
— oh look, yet another detailed explanation of creatures in filipino mythology
— why, would you look at that, yet ANOTHER source of filipino folk tales
anyway, regardless of what you think. filipino mythology is as valid as any other mythology out there and i shall protect it at all costs. normally i would have just deleted such a message but how you had told me of how invalid my culture was, well that angered me. to completely tell me that, i myself was invalid, a statistic. you are no better than the spaniards that arrived at our coasts. oh how they erased out existence from history’s books. let me tell you this, i will not be silenced. i will not be stopped. i will not be merciful. you come back into my ask like this again, i will meet you with a fury that even the gods cannot contain
