I dislike being Mexican?

Question

Lately I've been hating my own culture it seems being Mexican is a bad thing especially in the dating scene where women even Mexican women want anything but Mexican.
I don't find Mexican women attractive but many of them want anyone who isn't Mexican like Central or South American even tho many of us look the same but they want out of their culture and it's RARE to see a Mexican guy with a non-Mexican girl.

I think Mexican women have low self esteem and many are hypergamous where even a Central American who are poor compare to Mexican are still better then a Mexican guy.

Most half Mexicans have a Mexican mother whether they be half white,half black or half Asian and still most Mexican guys have this "raza" mentality which is obviously out of insecurity

So is there anyone else who hates their culture/race?

Answer 1

I seen this happen with a lot of Mexican Americans, they dress up pretty much the same and they think that you have to like their music and to have this raza mentality in order to be a "real" Mexican, but this is mostly the fault of stereotypes, I´m a Mexican living in Mexico and I have met some exchange students such as Mexican Americans and Texans and most of them think that you have to act like them in order to be a "real" Mexican or Texan.



Also, I used to dislike the Mexican hat and mariachi look until I saw the movie, "A walk in the Couds" and I felt proud to be Mexican, the movie is about a guy who gets in love with a Mexican girl and he learns a little about the Mexican, Mestizo culture. Also, the Mariachi look is like the "Scotish pipment" outfit of Scotland and the "Lederhosen" outfit of Germany, they don´t represent our daily clothing, we only dress up like that in celebrations.

In the past, when Bruce Lee first came to the United States, the American television was constantly making fun of Asian people by stereotyping them as if they had big teeth and huge cheeks in an exaggerated way, but Bruce Lee helped change that image, we need a Mexican Bruce Lee, in other words, we Mexicans have to change our image and I have seen offensive videos like "Capitan Mexico" in Youtube and when a Mexican says that he is offended, other Mexicans say that this is just funny and nobody should say anything which means that when someone makes fun of us, we just laugh with them instead of trying to change our image, so we are doing this to ourselves.

Answer 2

haha I have never seen a mexican with a black or asian mother maybe youre high on something or 12 years old cuz u dont make a whole lot of sense.... I use to not like being mexican american because of the stereo types then as U grew up I realized it doesnt matter because if u have your own style and get down it shines through no matter what , also who gives a crap there are way more important things to worry about some people are born with no sight or given away at birth or worse abused from birth people lose their whole family in freak accident yet ur worried about your race something you cant change so it makes no sense to even worry about ?

You should enjoy being all the nationalities that you are-in one person. In 2011 or 2012, a worlwide poll was taken on what people would be if they had a choice--Spanish came in as #1. Mainly because of our colorful pizzazz in every area. Iin the mix. Mix-icans have a Spanish side,(by the way, Celts also came from Spain-this includes England, Ireland, Scotland-supposed "White" lands, it's been genetically/scientifically proven side) from the conquistadores, French (Mariachis represent the fusing of our Mexican and French cultures) from the French revolution, Indian. Indians are ecclectic, original, mysterious, brave and resourceful. They don't care what others think about them. We also have German and Italian. Nueva Italia, Mexico. The only thing that held Mexico down was its worshipping idols. Any country that does that obviously suffers. The U.S. was originally started by true Christians fleeing being killed in Europe to find a refuge where they could worship Jesus Christ, peacefully. That's why it was so blessed at first. Then they removed the bible and praying from the schools. Next, the y removed the pledge of allegiance,.Really though,It's an Individual thing-not one thing about race. God said not to look at your race, because it's a false meter. Some people could suffer by it, believing they're not good enough, and others could also suffer by it-by believing they're actually better-and never reaching the ultimate potential-because they block their positive energy, with all that "hate" energy. The scripture says-"not following vain geneologies and deceit, which ultimately lead nowhere." Jesus was our ultimate example, by The Almighty God himself CHOOSING to be born in the humblest town --of Bethlehem,-and not a palace (which would befit a king) he chose, of all places, to be born in an outdoor animal stable. He set himself to be able to identify with the humblest of people. So when you feel down, "lift up your head" like his word says, because you have just been able to identify, and have a closer walk with God himself. " He who is Master, shall be Servant, and he who is Servant shall be Master. The first shall be last, and the last shall be first."
