Ive seen it happen with her, despite her identifying as white you have the minorities saying the opposite. We must remember that many of these people especially the FOBs already come from lands with racial complexes. They bring that shit here.
    I've heard some people say, "she looks white but she's really Latina."

    I blame lowly educated minorities. I remember once reading from some black chick "I knew she couldn't be all white, white people don't sing like that". lol

    Unfortunately, two of our largest densely populated states are also two of the most avid on the internet, they also account for much of our media, and unfortunately they're also two of the states with the dumbest average people.



    This is why, i have kids? they're being raised in the north, and outside of the metro pits of the US.
    Send me dms asking me to classify you, i'll have Barbarianna of Barbaria here put a few holes in you. Then I'll take this guitar and smash it over your head.

    No, "Latino" es not a race because of the following:

    (1) Latin American people are extremely heterogeneous in terms of race and culture.
    (2) The term "Latin" is a linguistic term that is not related to race.

    People think Latino is a race but I don't see how they can honestly think George Lopez and Zoe Saldana are the same race for instance.

    Would you rather call yourself Mestizo? I see 'Hispanic' as a switchable non pejorative way of calling mixed blood New worlders. What's wrong with that? Plus it has deep ethnic connotations, wich unifies Mestizo New worlders under one single banner. You don't go around showing your 23andme results to random people in real life and saying; 'Hey, i'm a Castizo.' That's retarded.

    Her father looks mostly Spanish but still mixed. Someone posted a pic on ABF.

    But yes I have heard "Christina Aguilera may look white but she's really Latina" as if her being Hispanic means she is no longer white.
