      Cinco de mayo is celebrated in southern states in 🇲🇽 mexico known as the batalla de Puebla. It’s not really popular in the northern states of Mexico. In the United States is celebrated by the Mexican American community because it was adopted as the el día de la raza. And of course like any other holiday in the United States is another day to make money 💰 so a lot of Anglo’s and none Mexicans get in the mix.

    Latinx to me is like spitting on a language that already includes everyone Latino just means Latin person no gender needed. To me it says that she doesn't think our language is good enough for her. I honestly hate that word and no Latino isn't masculine the "o" in Spanish is universal. Stop trying to make Latinx happen it's not going to happen!

      In Catholicism “x” is used for female identity. Mary for instance is understood as “mediatrix” because she is female and the mother of Christ, whom is the Mediator. Latinx does the same because the speaker is female. This does not have association with the LGBT+ community.

    I am a Mexican immigrant, I am come from México, as well as my entire family, and I sort of feel like an outsider when I'm with 1st generation Mexican-Americans because they can speak fluent English, while I still struggle with pronunciation and writing, but I also help them with Spanish because I went to school in México. One of the challenges for me is mainly stereotypes and my struggle to speak English and understand American culture which is baffling to me. I wish to change the way Americans and the world look at Mexicans and and other hispanics (I guess also latinos). Por favor dime halgo que puedo hacer para ayudarme con mi ingles. Muchas gracias mis amigos. Viva México 🇲🇽. Nunca tengan pena de dicer que son mexicanos o hispanos, sean felices y que tengan un buen día

      Yeah, there are so many different and unique subcultures, languages, sports, hobbies, social networks / media outlets, and political circuses that the shock to your system must feel ridiculous. Some day the organized mass chaos will make sense and then the only thing that can surprise you is when something strange does not happen. I would appreciate to hear your opinion on Joe Rogan's podcast interviews with Ed Calderon. I have made friends with several first and second generation americans from Mexico. Through the years they have been the most willing to stay in contact especially since the pandemic. I think we both want to avoid stereotypes and give each other a better understanding of our own country. It is difficult, but not impossible.

Igualmento mi espanol no suena fluente cuando voy a mexico a comparasion de aqui. Cresiendo, le desia a mis papas que algunos dias hablamos solo engles para que practicaran en el momento sin spanglish. Les ayudo mucho a los dos porque ahora despues hace untiempo lo aprendieron.

    I came with parents from Mexico. I grew up in an immigrant/ethnic community. I grew up in two cultures, the Mexican one at home, the U.S. one at school. It was hard to go "outside" of the bubble of our barrio. In the barrio you survived with your language, food, customs. However outside is a different world, one where you either adapt or you fall on your face. Difficult but possible to try to make something of yourself in the U.S. it is going to cost you a lot of hard work more so than your average peer. Some will make it, others will not but the "opportunities" are present. You have to go after them, they don't come looking for you.

Latino also refresh to the Latin culture of the Romans which they spread around during their colonization. Latino is not the same as Latin American. Latino/Latin it's only about languages and Latin American it's about where one comes from. It refers to a geographical location. That area of the Americas was called Latin America by the Latin European Colonizers, French, Portuguese and Spaniards, and the reason was because their languages derived from the Latin language. ( Romance languages).
      One more thing. It's about where the Hispanic label comes from. It comes from the Romans. They called that area which comprised of what is now Portugal and Spain then under their administration "Hispania", hence the name Hispanic or Hispano/a. Everything Latin be it the Latin people, the Latin Language and the Latin culture all comes from Italy, Roman Italy/Italia. Lastly Latino and Latin are the same words only that in the English language it's Latin but in Italian, Romanian, Portuguese and Spanish it's Latino/Latina. People coming or originating from Latin America are Latin Americans. The can also say Mexican, Cuban etc, etc but Latino it's only when one wants to state his or her culture.

I can see why a cis-gendered male would be hesitant to accept this term since the traditional term use ‘Latino’ fully represents them.
