López Wed, 23 Jun 2010 10:08:38 +0000 http://tikitikiblog.com/?p=2463#comment-2673 Querido Francisco, No entiendo su enojo. No hay nada aquí que crea una imagen de los Latinos como "tercermundistas". Tengo un gran respeto y amor por la Comunidad Latina. Escribí este de las experiencias de la vida real aquí em los EEUU y como se puede ver en los otros comentarios, otros Latinos lo llaman "divertido" y "verdadero". En este artículo se muestra simplemente una diferencia en la cultura. Ni el "Anglo way" o el "Latino way" es mejor o peor que el otro. Son simplemente las diferencias que hay que apreciar y disfrutar. Por supuesto, cuando se habla de generalidades, lo que se dice no es aplicable a todos. Así que, si esta lista no se aplica a usted, ¿por qué no simplemente lo ignoran? ¿Por qué pierdes tu energía enojando? Si tiene tanta pasión para la Comunidad Latina, úselo sabiamente. Ponga su energía en luchar por una buena causa, en vez de gastarlo en tonterías. Saludos. Querido Francisco,

Arriba America Latina, ya no somos tercermundistas como Ustedes nos quieren seguir catalogando. Shame on you Ms. López Esto es ridículo, y los tiempos cambian, no se que clase me Latinos esten viviendo en Estados Unidos, pero es patético que quieran clasificar de esta manera a nuestra gente…

Arriba America Latina, ya no somos tercermundistas como Ustedes nos quieren seguir catalogando.

Enserio! You got it just right!!!! Hahahahaha. Just the other day while at an Anglo's kids party, the host said joking, "I need a beer! At what age can we start serving drinks at kids b-day parties?" (Everyone laughed) Then I joked back saying,"well, in my dad's family, you can start serving while celebrating their 1st b-day." (They all turned and looked at me with horror.) Great, now they think my father is a drunk and he doesn't even drink. Me hubiera quedado callada. Nimodo.

How about house parties: Latinos: No coat check or closet...the coats are piled on the bed, and when the kids get sleepy you put them in the bed ON the coats (hard to find your own kid when it's time to go home at 5 a.m. and you've had one-to-many glasses of rum. Funnnnnyyyy!

Grew up in Miami and lived in the Midwest as a new mom with toddlers. This is a favorite topic of mine. Imagine my shock the first time my 4-year old was invited to a 2-hour party that said "drop off" on the invite. I couldn't even appreciate the free time I had just been given. Fantastico!
