Difference between latin/asian/white
Well my boyfriend said he likes latin girls a lot and I'm like white...but he keeps on saying that he likes latin girls around me.is that wierd?
also,can anyone possibly help me distinguish white/asian/latin?
the thing is,when I see a white person,I know he/she is white..same goes for asians
However for latins,I can't differentiate them at all,some look like dark asians,so really do look like whites(as in pure whites) and I can't really see their defined characteristic compared to whites,asians or blacks which you can tell at first sight.and oh yeah,some latins also look like asian american. So how do you tell? any pics?
thanks

Wow, I'll be interested to read the other responses you get, because I bet you'll get a lot of different ones! But here's my view on it:
Latin isn't really a "race", it's more of a culture. Latins are people from Latin America, which includes Mexico, South America and the Caribbean. Like the U.S., those places were originally inhabited by Native Americans, who had dark hair and somewhat Asian features.
Then the area was settled by Spanish people (people from Spain, who are white/caucasian). They also brought Africans as slaves.
Eventually, all these people began to mix, and develop their own unique culture. So depending on someone's family tree, they may have different degrees of Native, Spanish or African ancestry... which is why some Latins have dark, Asian-looking features, some look white/European, and some African-American.
But what brings them together as "Latins" is their shared language and culture.

well, it is really quite simple. THe best way to tell is to start speaking spanish to them. If they respond, you have a latin person. You can't tell by last name always because filipinos tend to have spanish last names often as well. You should tell your boyfriend to stop looking around at other girls anyhow. To test if you have a latin person, you can ask simple phrases like "Que onda?" (k own-duh) or "che! que te pasa, calabaza?" (shay, k tay pass-uh, cal-ah-bass-uh) If they respond to these, you probably have a spanish speaker and thus a latin person. Easy as pie.
