what do you see!
Why are there still people who look at me and this is what they will see? There isn't an entire day that goes by with out some idiot who considers him/herself worldly or politically correct and just has to ask me what part of Mexico I’m from. Not every Mexican is born or from Mexico. Then they ask where my parents are from. When I tell them they are from the United Fucking States they ask where my grandparents are from. When I tell them they were also born in the United Fucking States they then have to ask where my great grandparents are from. When that doesn’t satisfy what they want to hear there's an awkward silence for a moment. Then they ask if I know Spanish. When I tell them noooooooo, I get scolded for not knowing. They tell me I should to stay in touch with my roots and know my own language. Then I get told I can’t say Mexican its Latino. And I love that it’s someone who isn’t Mexican who gets to tell me all of this. And I love how people tell me I am wrong for voicing how I fucking hate assholes who have ask me where I’m from and tell me who I’m suppose to be. Its 2009 does it really fucking matter, we are suppose to be above all this shit by now!
