No, you're not a traitor. You need to do what is best for you and what makes you happy, not what makes them happy. It's your life and you have to live it to the best of your abilities. This isn't back in the day when 'races don't mix'. I know what you're going through, I have been with my spouse for 7 years now and we have 1 child and one on the way-both mixed. Part of my family didn't agree with my decision but guess what? They got over it. They love my daughter to pieces and love him too.
Good luck sweetie :)

Don't worry about it so much I'm sure your family will still love you no matter what race your man is. I'm a Latina myself and I've dated Hispanics and whites, and I have to agree with you the white guys are much nicer, soft spoken, and sweet. The color doesn't make the person so that shouldn't matter. No you are not a trader lol Everyone has they're own preferences and whities seem to be yours...and that's completely ok :)

When you get older-it will not matter what your Mom and Dad perceive. It appears as if their beliefs have influenced your beliefs. I did not know that "Hispanic" was a race. Legally- Hispanic is considered white. There is no "Mexican race" either . .In the 1940 census, Mexican Americans were re-classified as White. Instructions for enumerators were "Mexicans - Report 'White' (W) for Mexicans unless they are definitely of indigenous or other nonwhite race." During the same census, however, the bureau began to track the White population of Spanish mother tongue. This practice continued through the 1960 census.[3] The 1960 census also used the title "Spanish- surnamed American" in their reporting data of Mexican Americans but included Cuban Americans and Puerto Ricans under the same category.
In 1970, Mexican Americans classified themselves as White. Hispanic individuals who classified themselves racially as Other were re-classified as White by the bureau. During this census, the bureau attempted to identify all Hispanics by use of the following criteria in sampled sets: [3]

1. it's spelled traitor, not trader.
2. no, i think that's totally perfect! you'll be the one spending the rest of your life with the guy you choose, so make sure you make a choice you can 100% live with!!!
3. did you explain to your family about what you feel? your feelings can't be easily changed, truthfully... :)
4. no, you should not change race to please others. there are gd hispanics as there are gd whites and vice versa. you're more attracted to whites so i think they should accept you just the way you are.
gd luck :D

no ur not a trader you just have better taste in guys that are nice. It's true some hipanic guys are just jerks mostly all they talk about sex, girls and drugs(not al hipanics are like this though) you need to talk to your family and tell them how you feel it's not right for them to put you through that pressure. you should do what oyu want because it's you life but don't go over board with that term. Your family should love you for you and not your heritage! Best of luck-Lilly

No, you're not a traitor. You just happen to like white guys....we are all human beings and should be able to have our own personal tastes without someone being nasty about it. I'm Mexican, and all of my boyfriends have been Italian. I wouldn't mind having a Mexican or Latino or white or Asian or whatever boyfriend one day though.

There are many people like you out there.
You are ashamed of who you are and try to associate yourself with whites hoping that people will think you are white, or that you are better than your "people".
You are contributing in small part to the unacceptance that whites have of other cultures.
Its sad that you need the acceptance of people who's culture is the absence of culture.
The Hispanic culture is great, the food is great, your people are ambitious and decent and you want to be white..go figure.

You should date whoever you like.
