I was just going to say that as well. Due to the American military presence that's always been involved in the Philippines, not to mention how many Filipinos desperately want to move to America, if you speak English you'll have very little trouble getting around or understanding things.
As for the actual dating/club scene, it certainly exists in the Philippines and I have some online friends that frequent clubs and things like that -- but overall, on the flip side, I get the general sense from even talking to them that the full "Asian Ladyboy Experience" is far more likely to be found and done up with style in Thailand as opposed to the Philippines. So that's sort of the trade-off you make with regards to the whole language issue.
