I'm of mixed Puerto Rican/Italian-Irish heritage, but I have a couple of questions regarding hispanics. I'd like 2 start by saying I don't mean 2 generalize in any way, & I understand that not all hispanics r a certain way or as the questions I ask here.
1st off, why do many hispanics give people dirty looks all the time and stare a lot? I know people can be mean 2 them but they often look at me (as well as others) & stare for no apparent reason (I don't even look at them in any bad way). Most of the time they stare and don't even know the person, why are they so judgmental, especially 2 people who they don't know?
Secondly, why do they put white, asian, & mixed hispanic-white people down so much but yet a lot of them glorify black people so much? A lot of them put us mixed ppl down.
Third, why is it when I go to a resturaunt or store if there is a hispanic working there they are usually nasty & rude with their service, esp girls?
Lastly, why are a lot of them so homophobic?

I've had a lot of hispanics who were very racist towards me, especially since i'm light-olive skinned and since I'm mixed.

I understand people place labels on them, and I'm against that, but a lot of them, both older AND younger crowd, judge people so much, and a lot of them are so racist & homophobic. Of course there are those who aren't like that (I have friends who are full hispanic who can vouch for that), but a lot of them are.

Of course there are many hispanics, as with others, that are very friendly and all too. In response to "ghettopimping", there is no need for name-calling or getting like that, calling me "*******" or whatever is just like me calling you a slur. Keep those comments to yourself. Others, please keep racist comments off this post, I'm just looking for informative answers, not ignorance.
