the way i grew up its was ALWAYS proper to say "bless you" to anyone who sneezes or "kuyah, ateh, lolo, lola etc" to anyone who was your elder (filipino's can relate) ...

and its true what justsomeboi said...i asked one of my friend and he said the same thing sorta "when we sneeze our heart stops for a split second and it gives demons a chance to enter our bodies so ppl say bless you so demons wont bother you"
