If I meet a guy from the USA, and I ask him: Could you tell me how Latin people are? He would say that they are racially mixed, (he would mean to the mixture of the black and white race) but... I'm white, I've got blue eyes and blond hair and I was born in Argentina, if I'd go to USA, would you think I'm Latin too?

I'd love to know when being Hispanic became a separate race. There are three races of people on this planet: Caucasoid, ******* and Mongoloid.

You are right, I dont know why some people just assume that everybody in south america has tanned skin and brown eyes. I am the typical latin (tanned skin, brown eyes, long dark hair...)but I have many friends who look very diferent. My best friend is a boy who is very white, red hair and blue eyes. His parents and grandparents are venezuelan too so...people should now that there are white latin people too.
And YES, Argentina is a Latin country.

properly, there are a number of very own issues in this international you could not be snooping around in, for one. And sure, that's an extremely in all likelihood subject. study up on Mendel's rules of genetics. that's incredibly obtainable. much greater so if she became into bi-racial. you notice, blue eyes is a recessive genetic trait. meaning that the black gene for black hair and brown eyes is dominant over the white trait for blonde hair and blue eyes. yet, in the experience that your black occasion is biracial and has one blonde hair, blue eyed discern, and one thoroughly black discern, she would be in a position to look thoroughly black yet she might have the genes for a blonde hair, blue eyed infant. So, if she marries somebody with blonde hair and blue eyes, she will have a blonde hair and blue eyed infant for specific.

While on a tour of duty in Italy, I met many Italians with blonde hair and blues eyes. Nothing unusual. Some people just haven't been lucky enough to travel and expand their views of the world. Merry Christmas.

No not really. My son was born with blue eyes and blonde hair, I thought he was the wrong baby. I immediately thought he was white. So any race can have blonde hair blue eyes. His hair and eyes changed by the time he was 3. He is half black half hispanic.

Yep. I'm traditional "Latina" (from Spain) ... Since you're from Argentina, I would say you've got German or Italian in you, since that's where I lot of people ran for cover during and after WWII.

It's funny, because I can speak Spanish perfectly, and people are always shocked because I'm pale-skinned, blue-eyed and have light blond hair.

well even though your from South America that doesn't necessarily mean your hispanic, there were many germans and other europeans that migrated to Argentina, so even though you might think your 100% latina, you just might be a caucasion girl who speaks spanish? my grandfather is from puerto rico and learned english when he moved the the US (he does not like to speak spanish) but he never really considered himself a hispanic person, he's a white guy, both of his kids are very faired skinned with red hair and blue eyes, and my mother looks like she just stepped off the boat from Ireland, her maiden name is gonzalez, Americans are all different colors, we don't look a "certain" way

Most "Latinos" in the US are dark haired, brown eyes, and brown skin. Of course, most Americans certainly understand the fact that your genetic makeup has little to do with your country of origin. However, until you tell them otherwise most would assume you to be of Germanic, Swiss, or other traditionally blond and blue eyed heritage.

it makes no difference where you are from, only how you were raised.

And Argentina is considered a Latin country in South America.
