Interesting.

I wonder if people in Mexico or South America consider American English-speaking Latinos to be true Latinos if English is their first language. I know this is me being ignorant, but I am curious. I know that most Latinos in America are at least partly Amerindian.

Most people in other countries don’t consider anyone born and/or raised in America as real insert particular ethnic/cultural group. For example, Americans who visit Ireland and pretend they have any actual connection to the country are mocked as plastic paddies.

Whenever an American tells me his Irish, I ask him where were his parents or grandparents came from. Unless at least one of them are Irish, then that yank is not Irish.
