Why do Italians and Brazilians look the same?
*Some* Italians are real Latins. The Latins came from area that's located in modern Italy. They are not Latino, they're the true descendants of the original people. There are some Brazilians who are of Italian descent. A "new world" Italian in Brazil is no less or more Italian than one born in the US. However, Real Latins don't look like average Brazilians ... In the US, I get claimed by lots of different kinds of south Americans, Brazilians and Cubans do it the most. But other people in the US and the rest of world usually don't try to link me to south / central America (I've also lived in Australia and Europe).
Do I look spanish/mexican/brazilian?
Can anyone in the world understand that Spaniards are not the same as Mexicans/Cubans????? We are caucasian white, loads of people with blue/green/grey eyes and blond and ginger too!!!!
Are brazilians like mexicans? I mean latinos or hispanics?
Depends on what you consider brown. Obama is brown, Oprah is brown, coconuts are brown and chocolate is brown. "Latinas" like Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Alba and Eva Mendez are not brown. Only a dumb retarded can look them and say "Their color is brown. Brown like a chocolate". Brown is Brown. Only black people is considered brown. Even if a white is pale as a paper sheet he must to call brown only the blacks and I'm sure that you never seen any white as white as a paper sheet. So... These three women are not whites but are not brown, of course. They are mixed white+native indian. Upon Brazilians, when a Brazilian classify some person as white, this person is white. We are not a bunch of morons who uses a different criteria. Whites are whites in any place of the Earth. I really don't know what your school teach you about white race but white race is caucasian (from Caucasus) not somebody who looks like Santa Claus or Hilary Clinton (who are not white, but, red). If this Brazilian girls look like Gisele, Alessandra Ambrósio, Tony Kanaan, Bob Burnquist or any other white Brazilian, she is white and everybody must to accept this FACT. Only a retarded can say these persons are not whites. I see a lot of guys (mainly from USA and UK) saying about some 'latinos' "she/he don't look white. At least, for me". But these same morons treat as white person who look like "latinos" only due to the fact they are "americans" or Brittons. Two weight and two stupid measures. Learn this: Brazil is a diverse country. As diverse or more diverse as USA is. We Brazilians are the result of immigranton from more than 50 different nations including Sweden and USA what is not America. Everey Brazilian is a descendant of any other nation. There's no Brazilian people like greek people or chinese people. Most Brazilians families had no interracial marriage. So, a Portuguese remains Portuguese, an Italian remains Italian, a German remais a German, etc. after many generations. In other words: I DON'T KNOW WHAT RETARD HAS INVENTED THAT WE ARE MIXED!. Some 40% is mixed. The rest is pure black, pure Asiatic, pure indian or pure white. I Invite you to learn something about Brazilians visiting my Youtube channel. This is a specific list about races: http://www.youtube.com/user/AllAboutBraz... And this is my channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/AllAboutBraz...
Do i look mexican,brazilian,indian or italian?
you dont look any of them specifically. More like a mix of a bunch of different things. People that said brazilian must not really know what brazilian boys look like lol.
What do Brazilian males/females typically look like?
Brazilians can look like European,African,Asian and Arabic,here in Brazil there are people from every kind of look.People always like to highlight that Brazil has the second largest black population but they forgot that Brazil has the third largest white population,just after USA and Russia,with 93 Million of whites.It looks that people want to label Brazil as a black country and IT'S NOT,the majority of population in Brazil are white.
Do you prefer Mexican or Italian food?
Frances, that’s like asking me which one of my children I like best! Or to saw my only one in half! If you included Chinese food, I’d have to saw her in thirds!I have to give Crystal Miron first rights to this metaphor, but was thinking it as soon as you posted the question.I’d prefer the food not come from some over-the-top poncy restaurant with high prices for peasant food. As a Sicilian, I know Italians price their work or food at the high end of what it will bring. Because I had it available at home, even 30 years ago, when Italian shops were charging $4 for an espresso or gelato, it seemed pretty expensive to me.Mexican food always seems underpriced to me, and more and more small restaurants are opening in towns that had never had any Mexican or Central American population before. It’s cooked by people recently arrived from Mexico/CA, cooking the same specialties here as at home.One of my favorite tamales sources is the mamis and abuelas who make the best tamales I’ve ever had. They work or stay with the children all day, stay up all night making tamales, and then load their grocery carts and stand under the 7 train platform in Corona. For a dollar, it’s heaven.My favorite brother used to like to play this little joke on me, when we went to Mexican restaurants. He’d plop peppers on my plate, assuring me they were the most mild ones. Ai yi! Muy, muy caliente. He’d find the hottest ones, and slide down in his seat laughing. My nose ran, my eyes watered, and of course I’d drink all the water in sight, making it worse.Once, I could not taste the rest of my meal.Because I’m used to milder Sicilian food, I can’t tolerate super-spicy food.I guess it was his way of paying me back for the thousands of games of gin rummy we played as teenagers between school and jobs in a bad economy. Because I played very conservatively, I always won. But I didn’t tell him until he shouted “GIN!” He got so offended I finally had to stop.
Why do some Mexicans and Indians look alike?
Edit:I found another reference that supports this answer. This also covers the laws which came into play at that time:Punjabi Sikh-Mexican American community fading into history—-For this answer, I am assuming that the OP is referring to Indians from India and not Native Americans.This is just a recollection from one of my US History classes. I do remember reading in one of my history books that many East Indian men arrived in the US in the early 1900s to work at the plantations. I believe it was mostly in California and the nearby states. Due to some changes in the immigration laws, they were prohibited to request for their wives and families to move to the US. The new law also made it hard for Asians in general, both men and women, to immigrate to the US. With no Indian women to marry, the men who were already here were forced to intermarry.Many of the Indian men married Mexican women and adopted the Mexican culture. Many of them even took up Spanish names. I’m also guessing some of them or even their children moved to Mexico. This, I believe factors into the reason why many Mexicans look East Indian.My answer is from what I remember from history class, so please forgive me for not having enough references. If anything is incorrect and you can provide some references please let me know and I will update my answer. I’ve spent close to an hour looking for references but I could not find anything specific. I did, however, find a couple links which mention information relating to my answer:Punjabi Mexican Americans - WikipediaAsian immigration to the United States - WikipediaI felt I should contribute this information since I do not see any mentions of this yet. I thought it might provide the OP another possible answer to look into.
How is Brazilian culture different from Spanish culture?
One noticeable difference is that Spanish culture is a night culture. In Spain people will be in bars until 4 or 5 AM. In Buenos Aires you'll see families out having a night-time picnic by the riverside at midnight. You'll find bars and cafes open late, and buses running at 3AM.In Brazil, you almost never see this. There are a few 24 hour cafes and bakeries - which seem to be more where there's a stronger Italian influence than Portuguese, or where tourists are - but most places will be shutting by midnight, and even most of the "late bars" are closing by 2. (Partly there are laws mandating this in some cities.) Of course, the Spanish have the siesta and sleep during the day. Portugal and Brazil, as far as I can tell, have no established equivalent (though I've seen siesta in gaucho towns near the Uruguay border). In Brazil, the night feels dangerous. People worry about crime and getting home. What I've seen of Uruguay and Argentina and Spain, the night is more occupied, a welcoming, public space.
