The good thing is that we have so many choices in music,food, dances,etc. Some of us may not dance one type of music but it doesn't mean we never hear it or sing it.
Some of us in Canada have the chance to enjoy other latin american dishes ,that if we had stayed in our countries, would probably had never tried. Maybe in our own countries we would see other latin countries food and people as exotic. Luckily, here in Canada, we tend to blend among ourselves and name things latin as in latin music and latin food. The latin music selection at HMV includes salsa,merengue,bachata, some pop, very little rock, may be some Piazzola's tango, and opera.
Also,There are so many more kinds of music such as son cubano (the mother of north american born salsa), andean music, pasillo, punta, etc,etc,that we listen to in Canada perhaps in the privicy of our homes.
Ironically, there's new music such as reagetton which clearly has jamaican roots and for the purist could probably be considered gringo-latino.
I think we in Latin America are very open-minded when it comes to music. We listen music in english, and many italian and brazilian singers sing their music in spanish or in their mother tong. Eg: Totto Cotugno, ROberto Carlos, NEck, Laura Pausini, Domenico MOdugno,etc.

AMEN
For some reason, Colombiana4Life came to mind: The way she loves her Bollywood, she must NOT be latina, She's Paki! "giggle:

People in these clubs just stand there looking pretty and the odd slut goes wild. I look at all the gringo latinos inside these clubs that cant dance salsa if there life depended on it.
These same so called latinos only know aventura and daddy yankee but pretend to be hardcore latino when its time to pick up chicks. Inside Latin nights you are dancing the night away. You can mix and mingle with the entire club if you want.
NO FAKE A** GIRLS AND GUYS. It was an easy decision where i wanted to be but dont get me wrong i like all types of music. I am latino and i speck spanish and dace latin music.
Those other night clubs cater to gringos....They play there gringo music all night and show love to there gringos first before you. ARE YOU A GRINGO???

cant help it myself.. My slang is black and i dress in italian clothing. When its time to choose my leisure time i would rather go to all the latin events
exp
I would rather see Ricky Franco sing at mel last man then go to see my favorite hip hop artists at caribana
BEFORE i would rather go to Plaza then go Guvernment on saturday
i would rather watch the fight with Diamante sound crew and his brother then watch it with my friends from another culture
and i would rather go anywhere in latin america then anywhere else in the world!
you understand a bit more what i am saying now
agree 100%...
furthermore...when it comes to settling down with someone...i prefer a latina...always did always have...
and call me this and that...i aint open minded yada yada...personal preference peeps....at the end of the tunnel theres much more in common
its hard to have alot of things in common with them....and they r soo cought up in N american culture... OK THIS MAKES SENSE.....BUT THE SAME CAN BE SAID ABOUT YOUR INDIAN FRIENDS, YOUR AFRICAN FRIENDS AND YOUR ITALIAN FRIENDS.... "NOTHING IN COMMON"....NO? ...SO IT'S NOT JUST A GRINGO LATINO THING.....
like i said b4 son latinos por padre y madre pero de que sirve eso si no saben nada mas de su cultura?.. IF IT WAS A PERSONAL CHOICE BY THEM 100%......I WOULD SAY TOO BAD FOR THEM, THEY ARE MISSING OUT ON THEIR CULTURE.....KINDA LIKE SELLING OUT....BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT'S THEIR CHOICE....AND WHO'S TO SAY THAT THEY ARE NOT THE NICEST, KINDEST PEOPLE REGARDLESS.....YOU WOULD STILL STOP TALKING TO THEM AND JUDGE THEM 24/7? NO ONE IS ASKING YOU TO MARRY THEM!
i feel that i can sometimes have a better conversation with some fobby spic fresh off the boat PROBABLY.....THAT MIGHT MEAN THAT YOU ARE NOT SUPER SUPER CANADIANIZED YET...LOL
I THINK THAT IF THESE "GRINGO LATINO" AS YOU PUT THEM.....COULD ACTUALLY SPEAK SPANISH FLUENTLY WE WOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS THREAD...RIGHT DANNY?
BECAUSE LANGUAGE IS THE #1 FORM OF COMMUNICATION......
super super canadianized "yet" ? you must be joking
i was born here.... lived half of my life here... half of my life in ecuador
i love both countries but truthfully i love ecuador more...
i consider myself more ecuadorian then anything ...
straight up...if the economy wasent sooo ****tty down there and we had as much opputuinites as we do here...i wouldnt even be here by a long shot...
I see that this country is good to make money$$$$$ and enjoy the opputtunities it has to offer thats it...
but it lacks the social atmosphere....lack of culture...life here is too reptitive and boring alot of times..
the weather blows as well..
if i do ever get to that retiring stage one day....i hope it aint here

OK....I UNDERSTAND NOW....IT'S A PERSONAL PREFERENCE WHAT YOU DO IN YOUR SPARE TIME AND HOW SUPPORTIVE YOU ARE OF THE LATIN BUSINESSES AND PEOPLE....SUPPORTING YOUR OWN CULTURE MORE.....SOUNDS REASONABLE.....
BUT TO "DISCRIMINATE" AGAINST SOMEONE WHO IS "GRINGO LATINO"....C'MON....IT'S LIKE SAYING "EVERYONE HAS TO LIKE OR HATE WHAT I LIKE OR HATE....OR ELSE IT'S WRONG"......AND THAT'S NOT REASONABLE......
HAD YOU SAID THAT FROM THE BEGINING.....WE WOULD NOT HAVE 4 THREADS....LOL

I guess it it really a matter of personal choice.
Just like many North Americans or Europeans who go to South America, and want to be part of it all, and live there, and raise their kids there; anybody who would like to just be part of the North American culture, no matter where the person is from, I don't think it is reason for demeaning the person.
I personally choose to know about as much as i can, from everywhere. But some people might really really like one culture in which they were nor born or raised in. I don't think it should be embarrasing for them, it's their personal choice, and if they are going for it, then more power to them.

i wouldn't be. Being born in a latin american country and raised in north america doesn't make me any less hispanic. Maybe that person who knows more about my country could teach me a few things. And i'd suggest for that person to run for presidency in that country so that he/she could make a difference with all the knowledge he/she has. I'm an adapted north american hispanic.
