AND FURTHERMORE Just kidding.
Quote:
yes, you're correct. technically, she's a Californita Her family owned a ranch across the county line years ago. She's spanish colonial, not mexican. Chicana was an incorrect term but was used for convenience's sake.
Actually, she got a lot of hate for that, that's why she only dates whiteboys. Nevermind that she's ... more white than indian, and her mom is from EUROPE, not mexico. We used to get dirty looks all the time from mestizos. Racist pricks

Doesn't matter her ancestry, She's American.
I know several of the brown girls who like the white boys. The last one who mentioned it said "Mexican (in the racial sense) guys are arrogant and possessive and want you to stay home while they go out and do their thing..."
Another friend who likes the white guys told me this story:
A low rider cholo type was talking crap to her about how she was a traitor to her race because she was dating white boys. She replied (in Spanish) about what an asshole hypocrite he was because he couldn't speak Spanish. He said "Huh?" and she retorted "exactly".
Another one said no more "Mexican" men, because she doesn't like getting beaten on.
A few years ago I read an editorial in
Hoy daily which said, in Spanish, that men who beat their women like they were back in their home pueblo in Mexico were a disgrace to all Latinos.
However, not everyone is like that and to assume so is wrong.
Not everyone is alike, regardless of how much people on both extreme sides of the issue try to make it so. The so called "Latino community" is hardly a monolithic structure of like minded people. There are all sorts of personalities and personal beliefs from various spectrums, as well as animosities and discord and people who use one another while pretending to like one another. I believe that the only thing which could cobble them together as a group is a perception of white racism, and quite a few of them are pounded daily with the message from brown racists, in one form or another, "The white man is out to get YOU!!!".
