Piercings, Ooh lala.

Nope not really.

It's the same thing if I were to say:

"I'm thinking of getting a tattoo on my ass. What are your thoughts on this?"

But whatever. You weren't clear to me and I misunderstood. Time to move on. :smile:

He he he, or as us his-PANICS say, "Je je je"

Lati-NOs are now the biggest minority group in the USA, but this is recent news, and as I mentioned, I was there in the early 90's.

And about being flattered, I( don't take offence at all, but it really doesn't impress me when people come on strong to me, guy or girl. I've always been anti-social so I'm usually like "what the fuck do you want from me?" (to myself, not aloud) I also can't trust strangers. So no, I can't say I'm flattered even when a gourgeous girl I don't know is after me. If I saw you on the street I'd probably greet you with a blank stare or a hard "don't fuck with me" type look, just from who I am and experiences I've had.

If a gay dude is coming on to me what I meant about setting him straight is that I first tell him I'm Hetero, and if that doesn't work I tell them to keep professional boundaries, because I could report them or exclude them from our studies (Where I work we do investigational studies that compensate financially) which will usually clear it up, beacause participants here are looking to get paid. I had a guy fresh out of prison show me his junk in the hallway after I had screened him for a study, trying to show me a chankre sore he had. I reported his ass and he wasn't welcome here anymore. That is what I meant.

Quote: how do you tell a Latino when you see one? Tell him off!Yes we come white, black, brown, chinese, japanese...you name it.You would be able to tell after they open their mouth to speak.

How are chinese, japanese, etc... "Latino" unless they are mixed race? Or you are referring to those who speak the language?

In Venezuela, we have full blooded Chinese, not of mixed race, who have been there for generations, they speak Chinese AND Spanish and some only speak one language, like Spanish. They consider themselves (and are considered) Latinos. Same goes for Germans in our country, Japanese, anything and everything.The term latino usually refers to folks from Latin America, and it seems you are confusing ethnic category (non latino, Cuban, Puerto-Rican, etc) with racial category (Black, American Indian or Native, Asian, Pacific Islander, WHITE, etc.). Latinos can be of any mixture of the latter.

What are you talking about?
The term "Latin" is for anyone who is descendant from the Roman Empire. Like Spain, France, Italy, Romania and all those countries. Hispanics are people who come from Hispania - the Roman name for the Iberian peninsula. Napoleon first used the term Latin for people in the south Americas since they are not Hispanics and the term wouldn't apply.

"Latino" is Spanish-American for "Latin" - the word I just described. I've never heard anyone use latino before though, well here in South Africa, at least.

Alright, but I don't exactly agree with your definition though. I would never consider a full blooded Chinese whose fore-fathers immigrated to South America to be "Latino".

Haha, how did the conversation go from Body jewelry to Latinos?
Latinos are hot by the way. XD

This has the same meaning...
Latino=Latin.

My maternal side is Spanish and Portugues while my paternal side is French and Italian -- and Dutch, from the colonization. I'm Latin.

Some kind of hat thing; babies wear them. They were popular in the older days.

Ole frijoles, muchacha! It's time for you to get with the program, lol. We live in the 21st century.Latinos or Hispanic? Originally Posted By: Reen TarLatinos are hot by the way. XD I know.

I hope that's a fake site, really. Because I've never seen so much misinformation in my life.I'd show it to my history teacher, but I don't want her to have a heart attack!

With all due respect, what the fuck are you on about?I know things are different in your corner of the world, but so are things here in this country. Just becuase its different to you, doesn't mean it's wrong. Plus, times have changed.Over here, those of Spanish heritage are called Hispanic or Latino/a. Some Mexicans use Chicano. But I guess it really comes down on how each individual wants to lable themselves as.

Man, if you read the site you'd know that its stating that only Spanish people are Latin.

I'm going with Sdp's. And also by this: "a member of any of the Latin peoples, or those speaking chiefly Romance languages, esp. a native of or émigré from Latin America."Latin Union Right here: La Unión Latina es una organización internacional fundada en 1954 por el Convenio de Madrid para promover y difundir la herencia cultural y las identidades del mundo latino.

Sigh, you just don't get it...In the United States, Hispanic is one of several terms of ethnicity employed to categorize any person, of any racial background, of any country and of any religion who has at least one ancestor from the people of Spain or Spanish-speaking Latin America, whether or not the person has Spanish ancestry. Hispanics in the US And PLEASE tell me you understood your last post...

That's hispanic.really, just stop. Stop acting like a douche bag and talk about piercings.
