HISPANIC PRIDE!!!

I am a proud Latina/American

My mother is Nicaraguan and I just wanted to see who else here is Hispanic and where they are from?

Shout it out! <3

Ok since people seemed to be offended...let me rephrase this

"WHEREVER YOU'RE FROM" PRIDE!

Sad that its "politically incorrect" for me to be proud of where I'm from and the nationality I know best but I see where ya'll are coming from.

Huh? Sorry, not me.

About what?

Yeah about what? why is the jaw dropping?

I am so lost...

Huh?

Wow why such hostility? what is wrong with being proud of where you're from?

Is it my fault that you don't care about your background? I'm sorry I think its okay for people to be cool with where they come from/who they are. How come nobody gets offended when gay/lesbian/transgender/bisexual people form groups as openly as this one

Maven::
Yeah it might be a friendship forum..
but shes proud of her race...
So were does it matter where she puts tha thing?
Umhmm...
Yeah it doesnt...

OMG! No more fights, guys! Seriously, I'm tired of them!

Thank you ^ your more positive input is appreciated. I was aspiring for friends who are proud of their race, regardless of what it is. But if I put this in the wrong forum I hope the mods will remedy my error.

I'm Italian ^_^

"because unlike yours, mine carries a very, very, admirable background and story."

excuse you? did you just INSULT my background? what is your problem? Here I am trying to be peaceful and I feel like I'm being attacked.

and for reference, my FATHER is a Euro-American mutt so I happen to be Irish/Dutch/German/English/and Scottish :)

. . . I'm gonna leave now

"Mutt" is meant as in multiple ethnicities within a nationality or vice versa.

It was not meant as slander in any way so please don't take it that way.

If you're looking for a fight, you're not going to get it. so say whatever you want to say and be reassured knowing if you're intending to win a battle you will win. Because I'm not interested.

Oh lol I wasn't talking to you Britt, I was talking to ForgottenLegend because he seemed to be appalled that I used the word.

Oh well, my bad.

I was never taught my European side as much as I was influenced by my Nicaraguan side so thats ignorance on my part.

And for reference, Nicaragua has an immense history of oppressive government, immense poverty, and environmental destruction, much of which is similar to Ireland's history so...just something to think about. :)

Um...okay.

Anyways...thats sad, my mood for this thread has been killed because apparently its disgraceful to be proud of one's heritage. *sigh*

I'm mexican.
Name's Fernando.

How you doin', ese?

Hola Fernando!

"Okay well the taco bell chihuahua got a friend."

Hahaha you are something else...

I sure hope that Paris Hilton crack wasn't meant for me

Lmao. Hola.

I am Italian, Scottish, Irish, and English.

So, pretty much the UK and Italy.

XD

(Which explains why I'm so freakin' pale. Those damn Brits, lol.)

I'm a pure blood Mexican.

With a goat as a childhood pet.
Doesn't my skin make it obvious?

Baha.

^ Lol.

^Lol my dad's super-pale, paler than you. Like so pale he goes out in the sun for a few minutes and burns lol. But my mom's tan and fortunately I got that.

Pet goat? thats so great...

I've only ever had chickens...

By the way Forever Anonymous I really love your hair

I'm like that too, I can go out for like five minutes, in the shade, and still I wind up with a sunburn.

Ah, Florida.

Thankies, btw.

Oh really, where in Florida? That's funny I just went there last week!

Oh my god its really too humid there...I can't believe that this is the cooler season! I live in California so I'm used to dry weather.

Orlando.

It gets so humid, omg, everybody's hair always gets so frizzy.

I would love for it to get drier, that's why I like fall and winter.

Summer in Florida is like death. x.x

Eek...I can't stand the heat, I love the rain! which is probably the one reason why I could live in Florida for the weather.

Hmmm
i'm hispanic.
my dads a chilango and my moms german/irish/hungarian.
but i dunno, this thread sort of offended me.

Why did it offend you?

I really feel bad that I started a thread that would be so offensive to people and I almost wish it was just locked.

Idk.
it just did a little bit, your thought was really good though but the idea of having a hispanic thread just makes P&Q seem so awfully segregated.
but it was a good idea, don't feel bad, that's just my thoughts. ^.^

Yeah I get it, what's really funny is that in real life I have very few Hispanic friends. Anyways, I just really want to know people's cultures and heritages, because it fascinates me.

I should have put the title under Heritage Pride or something. I remember doing something similar like this a while ago and it didn't meet with nearly the retaliation it did this time. oops!

^.^
it's okay, but i really have to leave right now i'm so sorry.
i will try to post more in here later though because it was a very good idea. lol.
g'night!!!!
*waves*

Ey queen of spades, I'm so down with you!!!

I'm 1,000% mexican and I'm proud to say it!!!

Us latinos gotta stick together!!!!

Wats up?!?!
