A foreigner can probably figure out Filipino norms just by watching our shows. How media portrays our culture is interesting enough and while these norms aren’t necessarily good or bad, they still play an important role in our lives.

Another thing that teaches us the Filipino ways is through socialization. Each person we meet or socialize with leaves a mark in our life. 

We may not be aware of some norms but it is subtly shown through social media and part of our education. We pick up on it, sometimes unconsciously, and through this, we share it with others.
