Given that fornication is practically the national sport, one will find oneself practically under siege.

 

 

So if Miss Right does not happen along, try a few dozen Miss Wrongs! 

 

 

Sounds more like settling for "Miss Right Now" than looking for "Miss Right" Hehe

Tampo is when a filipina gets upset about something and gives you the silent treatment. Often you have no clue why. It can last for a few hours to more than a day.

Tampo can last days, weeks, .... You basically get a passive-aggressive silent treatment. If it goes on long enough all she will remember is she is pissed at you - not the why. My solution to tampo is tickle therapy.

"Tampo", by Juan Luna, painted about 1900 or so - Luna was imho the greatest painter the Philippines has produced - pity he murdered his wife, but she was being unfaithful to him so he got away with it.
 

The lady is having a tampo and her lover is applying the correct treatment - lambing or aamuin - gently cajoling her out of it.

This is hard for us to do - my reaction, nine times out of ten, is to treat the tampo as a sulk and proceed to lose my rag. This is incorrect

Tampo reinforces the old stereotype that a women's place is in the home - bound and gagged on the living room floor!
