Do Brazilians consider themselves as Latinos as well?

[Rafael Passoni]

Pan-euro is the best classification. Culturally part German or Slavic and speak Portuguese with cultural influence of Gauchos Spanish.

That's it. You have a German descent way of view. I agree with you. My cousin is Polish descent. His father is 100% Polish. I have most Latin ancestry (Italian and Spanish), but also Levantine and French. Also, as a compatriot said in another thread, we have more Asians than Amerindians (unfortunately, that means <1%). And a large population remains unmixed in Southern states and countryside Southeastern states. Latin for all of us doesn't fit very well as a glove.

In our daily lives, we usually don't identify as Latinos, but we are part of Latin America, just no the stereotypical Hispanic Latino.

Culturally speaking, we share a similar vibe and lifestyle to our Hispanic neighbors (some more than others), but since Brazil is a continental scale country, with most of the population still living in the Atlantic coast (despite the Marcha para o Oeste, created by Getúlio Vargas, had increased the Brazilian pop in island Brazil, most of us still live in the coast)...

... we still live in a bubble from our Hermanos, yes, some of their cultural contents reach us, but it's a small minority, everything non-Brazilian/American/British tends to be a niche of interest in Brazil.

Things don't come to Brazil from Europe or Latin America?, La casa de Papel was a boom in Brazil, and other Mexican soap operas were adapted to Brazil, and programs like El Chavo had a good reputation in Brazil.

Rio Grande= Rio Bravo frontier USA-Mexico.

Yes, but same way that Turkish soap operas are somewhat popular, as is Anime for kids or Game of Thrones.

The fact is: the common brazilian don't care about the label. He'll only care if he moves to US, and mostly after some time will say they are not Latinos because the concepts regarding it are almost alien (no, no brazilian has an "abuela" and eat tacos everyday at home, anyway). Interesting enough, more and more I see on internet some americans saying that brazilians are not latinos at all, specially those who have some proper exchange with us.

Still, still...we are Latinos because the overall concept of it. Maybe a weird, different and totally alien kind, but we are.

I would say spanish things penetrate in Brazil, many movies and series are from Spain, even ahead of France or England in recent years. But we cant say the same to Hispanic american countries, their things are not common in Brazil.

Spanish music too?

Despacito was a boom in most of the world including in Asia where Latin music is not famous, it would be surprising if they did not know that song in Brazil.
