Viral ang post ng isang female Tiktoker sa Qatar dahil sa kanyang video kung saan nagtatanong siya kung anong detergent ang ginagamit ng mga Pinoy.

Napansin daw kasi niya na maraming Pilipino ang mabango, tulad ng Filipino couple na nakasalubong niya.

Sa short TikTok video, makikita ang uploader na naglalakad sa may kalsada pauwi at nagkukuwento. Ipinost niya ang video nitong April 28, 2024.

Pahayag ng TikToker (published as is): “They smell like they come out of washing machine and the smell is like fresh. They smell like detergent.

“And not only this couple. Everyone. Everyone Filipino smells the same.”

Panawagan niya sa mga Pinoy (published as is), “Which detergent you use? I want the same because it smells amazing and also I like it. I kinda like it. And you can say all Filipinos smells the same, seriously.”

Bumaha ng comments ang post ng TikToker. Meron na itong 3.5 million views at higit 10,000 comments.

Pero hindi lahat ay positibo. May ilang Pilipinong netizens ang naging sarcastic. Tulad ng komentong may pagkakataong hindi mabango ang lumalabas sa bibig ng ibang Pilipino.

Makahulugang hirit ng isa pang Pilipino: “Minsan parang may poso negro na din pag nag sasalita na.”

Sundot ng isa pa, "marites" daw ang Pinoy.

Generally, mas kilala ang mga Pilipino sa pagiging warm and friendly sa mga foreigners.

Di ba't ito ang madalas na papuri sa atin ng ibang lahi?

Sabi ng isang banyaga (published as is), “well its true but I like them also they are very kind people’s ever I seen big respect to all of them!”

At nakakatuwa na bukod dito, nadagdag ang "malinis" at "mabango" sa mga katangiang pagkakilanlan sa mga Pinoy.
