Mexicans are not Latinos. Latino means Sicilian and southern Italy. It means olive complexion and like goodfellas. Capische?

For that matter, certain people from Russia, India, and the middle east are 'Asians', but it's been mandated by the PC police that only Orientals are to be called Asians. Oriental actually means 'eastern'. African American is a pompous, and ludicrous attempt at falsely dignifying members of the Black race that live here. There is actually no such thing as an African American, except for those who emigrate here from Africa and become citizens; and a good deal of them are white!!! This whole trend toward diluting peoples' origins is all founded in the societal cancer called Political Correctness wherein people try so hard not to offend ANYONE that they actually end up offending EVERYONE, though it's hard to see because it's truly a very complex and well disguised lie.

whoever does that doesn't understand the difference.
Italians don't look like anglos at all, their complexions are not as pale as anglos. No, mexicans are not Latinos. That's another difference in complexion.
I heard a lot of people did call themselves Latinos while they are actually Hispanic or of Spanish descendants.
What are you, by the way?

I think that Mexicanos like Anglos are Eropean.
Anglos as decendents of English speaking countries.
French would be Franco-American.
Italians are also Europeans but Italian Americans.

Latinos are males originating in Latin America and Anglos are not Italians.

Actually, Anglo Saxons are Germans mixed with French and something else which have migrated to Britain. So I have no idea where you got that.
Anglo Saxons are gone, but those who live in the US that have British backgrounds have some Anglo's in them.

Princess, I viewed the picture of yourself that you posted along with the question, 'do I look white.' I just wanted to let you know that you look like you could be either white or mixed. Whatever race you are, you sure are an unattractive looking woman. Sorry to have to let you know that, but I hope you're smart because you are not going to get very far on your looks.

Sorry to disagree with you,but I totally disagree with you. You are totally incorrect. And all Italians do not have olive skin either. But have a nice day anyway :) and don't forget to smile and be happy with who you were born to be.
Ciao!

LETS USE THE CAPSLOCK! I DON'T CALL ITALIANS ANGLOS! BUT OF COURSE I WILL CALL PEOPLE IN THE US OF ITALIAN ASCENTS ANGLOS BECAUSE THEY WERE ERASED IN THE ANGLO CULTURE, FOR THE SAME REASON PEOPLE OF GERMAN ASCENTS IN LATIN AMERICA ARE CALLED LATINOS.
