Depends entirely where you from. Venezuelans got everything heavily subsidized for decades and expected to get everything from gas, electricity and housing very cheap or almost for free.

The most annoying misconception is that they think we are all one type of skin colour, but no, there are actually very dark skinned people, medium deep, light skin and very pale people and it also depends in the country or the region you are in. Latin america is beautifully diversed 😘
but if you look at the telnovas coming from latin america 99% of people look closely like the average italian. you can't blame folk for being ignorant when you sell whiteness as the default local product.
Thank you🙏 for bringing that up. Our diversity has to do with the mestizaje, mixture of ethnicities, in Latin America. We are so mixed that skin color often varies within a family.
It's pretty ironically, cause the one who said that, it's from Venezuela, the only country that everything it's almost free because the state give it all (socialism).
Gustavo Malavé así fue que empezó toda esta vaina de la viveza. Los venezolanos estábamos acostumbrados a recibir todo desde gasolina, electricidad y viviendas prácticamente gratuito o fuertemente subsidiado.

Latin America = Any country in the AMERICAS that speaks a language that derived from vulgar latin; this includes all of the Hispanic world(minus Spain), Brazil and Haiti(although they speak creole so some may not agree here), and excludes Suriname, Guyana, Belize etc... Hispanic America = Any country in the AMERICAS that has Spanish as a main language.
@@ottovonweaboo6355 actually it is the opposite , Im from Chile so Im latinamerican because I speak spanish and Im from South america, the hispanic are the people who lives in latin amarica but don't speak spanish like Brazil ,the brazilian people are Hispanic American, Spain is hispanic bacause speak spanish but is not in latin america is from Europe.

@@catalinalopez4433 Despite having Brazilians of Spanish descent, most Brazilians are of Portuguese origin. Brazil was considered to be Lusitanian America, unlike Hispanic America. However, both are Ibero-Americans, whose languages belong to Vulgar Latin, hence the Latin expression. It is worth mentioning that in Brazil there are other ancestry such as the German, the Italian, the Polish, the Japanese, the Lebanese, among others.
Yes, that's the first thing that came to my mind the moment they said that.. On the other hand, I know lots of brazilians and have never had an issue communicating with them. I guess between the language similarities and some effort from both sides, we can have nice portuñol conversations. The point is we should connect more and embrace our latinhood together!

No. The whole thing is a misnomer. Latinos are Italians, spaniards, Portuguese etc. Consider this, calling a Castilian or Portuguese speaking, native or afro descendant living in 'latin' America a 'Latino/a' because they speak a Latin-based language, would be akin to calling an Australian aborigine or a New Zealand Maori a Germanic, Germano something or other because they speak a Germanic based langugage (English) or an Anglo something or other because they speak English. It was actually a friend of mine who is 'latino' (but no longer calls himself that) told me that only people who do not know their history or identity would call themselves 'latino'.
@@shaide5483 if your mother tongue is a Native American language doesn't make you Latino. If you have the chance and speak with a member of an Amerindian tribe, whose first language and culture are based on his/her Amerindian identity surely they will tell you they are not Latino. There are many communities, especially in Latin America that despite they are located in Latin America they don't consider themselves Latino, due to the language, the religion, and culture itself.
So true Arianne, there are almost as many Portuguese speakers as Spanish, circa 210 to 206 million. Other official languages include Dutch, English and French. I love Brasil, spent ten happy years there and have some great memories.
I agree with you but, Brazilians are latinos because they speak a language originated from Latin. And not because Brazil is located in South America. Suriname and Guyana is located in south america and are not latinos.
If you are part of South America so you are South American. I'm brazilian but I don't consider myself as Latino but this is my very own declaration, everyone is whatever they want to be. Most of all I'm brazilian and South American beside all.

@@joaocoimbra1846 Sure, but I'd expect these mistakes from people living in here not the ones who can travel abroad. Since who can do that worked hard to get a scholarship or could afford higher education. You just met someone ignorant.
Sure, but that's not even 20% of the population. In terms of the education system in terms on english, my brazilian friends told me that they only teach it to the verb "to be". So that's probably what you learn in the 3rd grade of European countries (using Europe as a example because I'm living there)
@@joaocoimbra1846 what mentioned was not an excuse. Education is pretty shitty over here. Less than 10% can afford private education, which usually is the best over here. English in most schools is not that good 'cause it's only theory; we don't talk or practice (I took an english course elsewhere). Many students take it for granted, only carrying about their grades; they try to memorize all and end up forgetting it, and many parents don't have international perspective, their world is where they live. It's hard to talk about our failing education. It's like a food web, each problem creates another that feedback the whole system.
I'm glad they included Argentina and Chile, cuz we don't have much in common with MOST of the "Latinos" stereotype (in USA), we don't dance salsa, bachata or merengue, we usually have light skin and we have very different type of food lol but at the end of the day we all have the same love y nos tratamos como hermanos.

Its because California, Texas, Nuevo México, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado belonged to México, thats why there are alot of mexicans , 63% of all latinos are mexicans. The only problem is that Americans always forget that
@@lizziebarrie Not only that they don't even learn about Mexican culture properly. There's so much diversity in Mexico there's black whites browns not everything is about tacos tjere are special dishes according to every region and alot of Mexico is tropical rainforest. Also they don't take the time to cater for other countries. I am Mexican and am educated on each country in Latin America I know my geography and the accent from each country. It sucks tjat they are stereotyped. I think it's because there are alot of Mexicans in every part of the U.S. and Hollywood popularized and stereotyped us to be a certain way so everyome thinks everyone is Mexican which clearly isn't the case.
- I’ m Latina - oh so you love tacos and spicy food and dancing salsa -I don’t eat spicy food or love salsa either - But... you said you were latin.. -I am but ya know, I’m form South America - Ohh .... and how is that? 😒😒😒 They think all latins are the same, but we aren’t all MEXICANS it’s so annoying
Neither are you (unless your're Portuguese Brazilian in which case then yes). 'Latins' is such a misnomer. Latin people are Italians, French, Spaniards etc. We don't call Australian aborigines or New Zealand aborigines some Anglo-anything just because they speak English or because they are mixed with White European. A native american from Peru or Mexico is as much 'latin' or anything to do with Spanish as a native Samoan from American Samoa has with being anglo, or anything to do with England. Just so you know the person who educated me in this whole thing is a friend of mine who said he used to be all 'latino' pride until he picked up a history book.
@@theangry7977 Quite yes, but we should be more flexible, Latino is frequently used as what should be "latinamericans" and in that case the people from the American continent who speak a language originated from Latin are those, they're related by the language in that case, however, it's true that the simple latin is pretty ambiguous.
I always get the,"But you don't look Latino." due to the fact that I'm Afro-Latino/Afro-Rican. Yes Black Latinos exist. Just because they don't really show us on TV, doesn't mean that we don't exist.
YEP. They see afro-latinos and assume we're all african americans because black people can't *possibly* be considered latinos. This is why on-screen representation is so vital.
Me caga la ubicación geográfica de México, sólo tenemos dos países "pegados" a nosotros: uno que sólo habla inglés y otro que la neta ni al pedo. El resto de los países de Latinoamérica colindan con varios países y pueden viajar más. >:(
warrior life yeah but we pretty much like the others latino countries. and we are the bigger country so i guess we are part of latino also. latinos united 💪
People are ignorant. When they think of Latino they think of Spanish and Brown skin and salsa. People don't know the difference between latino and Hispanic.
I'm Latina but people think I'm some wanna be cuz I'm light skinned whenever I speak Spanish they say oh I didn't know you were Mexican. I also don't like how people label you as Mexican when you speak Spanish like there are other Latin American countries that speak Spanish too
They don't know that there's more than one Spanish speaking country. During my senior year in high school, I had a guy who didn't know what El Salvador was. I told him it was a country. He said that I was smart. 🙄
Smh, im light skinned too lol, but people can normally tell Im Hispanic and i guess its bc of the way I talk, idrk but what pisses me off is when they label me as "Spanish". Like yes, I speak Spanish but I am not from Spain or a language.
Diário de um casal viking I get that too. I have light skin, and very light brown hair. People ask if I’m half Latino, because no way am I fully Latino and the way I look. People can be so ignorant.

Fun story about that. My wife and I were waiting for our coffees at Starbucks, they were writing names on cups and calling them out when the coffees were ready. Wife’s name is Judi and I guess the handwriting of one of the baristas was bad and she thought it said Juan. She called out Juan and looked straight at me and repeatedly called out Juan, like I didn’t understand. The girl who wrote said sorry that’s supposed to be Judi. White girl turned a deep shade of red and apologized. Needless to say this is a legit stereotype. FYI, no my name is not Juan.
As a brazilian, I actually like it hahaha I feel like even though we ARE latinos, we have a lot of different aspects in our culture because of our size, population and language. When they say we are not latinos, is because we have differente habits, listen to a different type of music, speak in a different language, etc. I really enjoy being seen as unique.
@Pedro Stilpen como os EUA recebem muitos imigrantes da América Latina, o termo "latino" passou a ser sinônimo de hispânicos. Então muitos americanos não nos consideram latinos justamente porque não falamos espanhol e temos uma cultura e as vezes até etnia diferentes das dos demais países vizinhos. Por mais que essa seja uma classificação errônea, já que você mesmo definiu muito bem o que "latino" realmente é, de acordo com os padrões americanos, não somos exatamente latinos
@ericktwelve11, what does that even mean? What are you talking about? Anyway, my point stands: she’s a Black woman. Being a Black person and being Latino are not mutually exclusive.
I'm Guatemalan and grew up in a Spanish speaking household but moved to Canada at a young age and have definitely experienced these stereotypes. I have been told and have heard the stereotypes that all Latinos are Mexican and that we're lazy and it's so infuriating. Dont you dare say that we're all lazy when you don't even know our story and what we've been through.

So true. I'm Cuban and I also moved at a young age (6) to Canada. I do have heard of those stereotypes (not the lazy one tho). And it's really hard to live in another country to have a better life and leave your family behind. They just don't get it 'cause they haven't experienced it.

Kimberly Moura haiti, Suriname, Belize e Guiana também fazem parte da América Latina e alguns deles falam idiomas latinos, por que eles não são classificados como latinos? Sem contar que América Latina não é um termo correto em geografia, e sim "América do Sul, América Central e América do Norte", ou simplesmente 'Américas'. América Latina é um termo cultural, e não geográfico.
I've seen it that within Spanish speaking countries they think they are better than the other. It's like okay the other people Caucasian look at us and we are all the same to them. So it's better to be united as one and not attack each other for nonsense.
0:13 Oh, come on! Latinos ≠ Hispanic. It's different. We are latinos but not hispanic. Portuguese is a latin language. Not to mention that Brazil stay in South America, considered as Latin America. The largest country, by the way. Love from Brazil. 😘
Alex Vaz Nogueira As Guianas e o Suriname são um caso à parte. São colônias, ou seja, extensão dos países as quais pertecem. A francesa poderia se enquadrar como latina pq o francês vem do latim. Os demais não. Em todo caso, geograficamente, tbm estão na América do sul. ☺
I had two friends in the University. I met each separately. One was male the other female. Both were from Panama and of full Chinese ancestry. They both spoke Spanish primarily and belonged to many Hispanic clubs and went to Hispanic dances and events, and both went to Catholic Masses in Spanish on Sundays. They met. They dated and they got married and lived as fully Hispanic of fully Chinese DNA and ancestry. Both were super super cool and nice. Handsome couple. They both told me many Chinese people went to Panama over a century ago. I've seen other Chinese Panamanians also.

When we are abroad we are VERY HARD WORKERS, the reason why we left in the first place is to bring improvements to our lives and to our loved ones's, and you can only do that by moonlighting. Maybe because our culture until relatively recent times had an institution out of the "siesta", and we are warm, hospitable people who take their time in several things, for instance while talking to you will not be impolite because we are in a hurry, we will respect you and thus it may look we have nothing else to do.

He doesn't do the things a lot of Mexicans do (here in the US), he doesn't like rodeos, coleaderos ( not sure if you know what that is), doesn't drink (a lot) doesn't like to watch or play soccer, etc, etc. But at the same time, he doesn't do things that white people do.

Latino- Latim We have lots of languanges that have their roots from the Latin. And so its PORTUGUESE. Not all latinos speaks spanish. No Brasil se fala português In Brasil, we speak portuguese! Beijos
The most annoying stereotypes that I always get are that people always question my nationality, they never believe I'm Dominican cause of my pale skin and when I speak Spanish they'll assume I'm Mexican like if Mexico is the only country in the world that speaks Spanish. I'll be like dude of course you don't believe I'm Dominican and that's cause probably you've only been to Punta Cana, Santo Domingo or in the seaside, but have you been to the north side? Have you been to Santiago? You are definitely going to find pale skin people with blue eyes and blonde hair, plus you gotta get a book and start studying some geography and history about countries throughout Latinamerica so people can stop thinking you are dumb. Jeez!
Same happens to me. I'm Puerto Rican with tan skin and light brown eyes and unfortunately an accent. People on the island ALWAYS assume I'm Dominican because of my tan skin and the way I speak as if all Puerto Ricans are light skinned and if all Dominicans are dark, it's ridiculous! I've gotten my fair share of racist comments from stupid people here. I've been even called "negra sucia" and been told to go back to the republic because I am not wanted here. My family is one of the oldest families in the town I live in, we can be traced back over 400 years. I've had to remind people many times that, A) Tainos were not white, ( Census had my family as Mestizos) and B) Many white people live in RD. My husband's family are Dominicans and they are white! Also, many are too stupid to notice that my accent is because English is my dominant language, even though I am completely fluent in Spanish. When I was in the states people didn't believe I was Puerto Rican because I didn't look like JLO! 🤣 Many thought I was Mexican, I've been called a liar many times when I tell them I'm from PR. Mind you these comments are from other Latinos!
Latin America = The American countries that speak _Latin_ languages, including Haiti and Brazil, who speak French and Portuguese. Both Latin languages like Spanish Hispanic countries = Countries that speak Spanish, including Spain and Equatorial Guinea
"Latinos" dont have pride. You dont hear French, Portuguese, and Spainish speaking Africans people saying they are "Latinos". Get some self respect. At least Mexicans respect themselves by identifying are Aztecs, Mexicans ect.
I think it's because Mexico is on the border with US. Mexico gets more attention due to that, that's probably why the associate Hispanics with Mexicans.
well im sorry, but im from costa rica, and i would rather stay at home, so it is still kind of a myth, i know a lot of people that think the same as i do.

We (Latins) are very diverse. We share a lot of cultural similarities and lot of differences, and that is precisely the source of our richness. And like any other family, some of us are more alike and some others are different from us, but at the end we shared the same roots and a similar history. We’ve all gained our independence at almost the same time and with the same movement by being united, and also we’ve faced and suffered similar injustices, inequities and oppression, but we’ve managed to overcome it and continue walking with an admirable optimism. Proud to be Latin!
I think calling us "latins" takes away a lot of our originality as countries and cultures if we want more source of richness we should include Europe and Africa as well and why not just call us humans, since we share many similarities after all.
Proud to be Latin? Do you know what it means to be a Latin? Are you Italians, are you Roman, are you Latin European? So stop your lies. You are Latin Americans by geography of origin and your race is mostly Red-Skin Indian. You must identify yourselves by using your race like we all do and Latin is not your race.

And behind that facade, hides a lot of insecurities, fears and talks about that probably you weren’t treated with love and respect when you were little....how is or was your relationship with your Father....did he treated and treated people with affection and respect?

As a gringa married to a wonderful Peruvian man- I have to say a lot of this video is correct. Especially about Latinos enjoying life more and being in the moment more than other cultures. I’ve def seen that with my husband and his family. My husband has a fast paced, corporate America leadership role, but he’s never anxious or stressed when things get busy. 💕 Also the generosity thing- they’ll give you anything without thinking a second thought. My American-ness is way more sensitive to personal space and ownership of items than they are I’ve come to realize. The other thing though, is that I’m glad the jealous machismo tendency skipped him, he’s also way more less prone to make decisions emotionally. So I consider myself very fortunate!
You surely are: because of the family name I dare say your husband might be related to one of our main port's mayors during last century and to a very renowned artist. Congratulations.

People tend to misinterpret the word "latino", "Latinoamérica" includes all the countries of the Americas that speak a language that comes from Latin, those are Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, Romanian and others, that's why Brazil and Haiti are included, while "Hispanoamérica" only includes the countries that speak Spanish.
Latin America is very diverse, is a good video but would be great see a video like this of each of the regions: - Mexico - Central America - Caribbean - Countries in the north of South America - Southern Cone

South Mexico and Central America- maias Andine America -andes Mountain Range South of Brasil - German culture . North Brazil -Amazon Central Brasil -country culture.

Nice divisions. I support them, they celebrate the difference between us. (Yes, they exist, especially ethnicly speaking). Caribbean, for example, has far more African blood than other parts of Latin America, due to high trade of slaves and sugar, of course.
What really annoys me Is when they refer “Americans” to the people from United States. AMERICA IS A CONTINENT not just one country! Maybe it’s just me but I live in France and every time a French person ask me If I’ve been in “America” (United States) it gets me out of my nerves. I feel like they’re taking our identity as part of a continent. It’s just my opinion
One thing: continents are taught differently in different countries. In the US it's north and south America, in Latin America it's The Americas. Yo entiendo porque nos ponemos defensivos cuando refieran a los estadosunidienses como Americanos, pero si lo piensas, todos los paises tienen nombres "Venezuela, El Salvador, Mexico..." pero los Estados Unidos is just that: "The United States of America" with the word America. Es mas facil decir "American" que "United Statsian" or something. We're all American, that's true, but it's just easier to call people from the US Americans. Many other languages also don't have a name for "estadosunidiense" like in Spanish, so people just go for American.
Miriam Martínez As a person from the USA, I have to say that it’s the rest of the world’s fault that people from this country are called “Americans”. Because that’s what the rest of the world calls us, so it’s what we call ourselves.
Let me ask you this, what do you call Germany in spanish? You call it "Alemania", right? Why not GERMANY? Better yet, why not DEUTSCHLAND, which is what Germans call it? OMG the Germans must be offended that you don't call their country Deutschland!!! You see how stupid your logic is? In English (and many other languages too) calling the USA simply "America" is perfectly accepted. In Spanish it's America, the continent. In English it's North America and South America the continents, and America the country. End of story. There is no problem here.
Merci petite Fleur, enchantés de partager avec vous le Catholicisme, la culture méditerranéenne, la bonne bouffe, la langue d'origine romance (près du Français) et l'esprit ouvert, chaleureux et hospitalier.
I'm so white, polar bears use me for camouflage. Anyway, I dated a Mexican chick, and early on, she asked me if I ever dated a Latina before. I said, " No. Is there a difference?" She said, "Oh yes....the passion..." This gal was about as passionate as a bowl of vanilla ice cream. So don't believe stereotypes, even if they're about yourself(ves).
Yay! Loved the video Marina! Also, thanks for making the group so diverse from all over Latin America (we got a Nica🇳🇮 in there wootwoot). I totally agree with all the answers given 😄
One thing people need to understand is that the distance from north to south in Latin America is similar to Ireland and East Asia, for sure there's a lot of cultural similarities, but also the ethnic composition of each area is quite different.
In Cuba men and woman are treated equally. There are a few machistas but women are hella outspoken and never submissive. We’ set the men straight whenever they get out of line
Ima just say it but I'm latina and I hate to party. I loathe going out. I don't know how people do it. I don't like loud music, or meeting strangers drunk ones. I rather be at home with my dogs and watching movies by myself.
In the the late 60's my mom (Salvadoran) said my dad's (white) relatives assumed my mother would be lazy and dirty. They were so mad to see my mom was very clean, never relaxing. Our house looked better than theirs.
Loved this video! Latin American an Lazy it's so false! We hustle non-stop, work harder than anyone else in jobs nobody wants, that's why we nap so much! to get the energy back for the party.
If I had to define Latin America with one word thst word would be diversity. We come from all corners of the world. There are Latinos from Asian, European, African, Middle Eastern, background. We Latins come in all sizes, heights and colors. And because we are SO diverse stereotypes will always be inaccurate.
BRAZILIANS ARE LATINOS!! I'm Brazilian,and I felt offended when someone says "no you aren't,you don't speak Spanish" or "do you speak Spanish?".....Bruh...We need a BIG DISCUSSION, Latins: countries that speaks derived languages from Latin(Itálico),that includes French,PORTUGUESE,Spanish,Italian..... But...countries that speaks Spanish are Hispanics,that's a big difference...we share a lot of cultural similarities(and different paradoxes)but we only don't speak the same language,please... Even if Portuguese is not the same language,I still can understand what a Spanish speaker says to me,ik that's paradoxal....but...yee
