Since most people seem to not understand what Latina is, I will say this as an exasperated woman of Latin heritage myself.
"Latina" is a woman who is of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, South American or Caribbean descent. No, it is not exclusively used for women that come from Latin America.
No, we don't all sing Despacito and twerk 90% of the time. I am Latina and I hate the song, we aren't all trashy, we aren't you cleaning ladies, and we aren't the white persons costume. Stop butchering beautiful Latin languages, and stop telling some of us that we don't "look" Latina enough. We aren't all brown-skinned, we aren't all black-haired, and we don't only come from the Caribbean.
I have curly dark hair, I am olive-skinned and tan, and I am Italian. Italian and Portuguese women are also Latinas, deal with it.

Idiot: Hey, where are you from?
Me: I'm Latina. My family comes from Spain, Sicily, Italy-
Idiot: OMG u arnt LaTINa!!!! theY oNLy come fROM CArIBbEaN.
Me: Latin originated in Italy...and spread through Spain and Portugal. "Latino" and "Latina" are just Spanish words for Latin. Besides, Italy colonized some of South America as well, and aren't they Latina/Latino?
Please stop misusing the word Latina or Latino

Get the Latina mug.by a fallen star xxx January 07, 2019
Get the Memes mug.The worst and most overrated movie ever. The movie is idiotic in EVERY POSSIBLE WAY. 8 year old girls for some reason think Zac Efron, Troy Bolton or whoever is hot (he's NOT). The movie is an insult to REAL coming of age/high school movies like Ferris Bueller's Day Off , The Goonies, The Breakfast Club and many more. The characters are mentally 10 and the songs are over exaggerated and terrible. Troy and Gabriella are annoyingly like Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez.
Troy Bolton and Gabriella: *sings some over dramatic song*
some 8 year old dumbass: OMGGGGGGG
me: wtf is this crap
the 8 year old dumbass: High School Musical <3 <3
me: this movie can go suck a lemon

Get the High School Musical mug.A man who fought for many rights. A perfect human. He was, and still is loved and missed by many. He wrote the famous "I have a dream" speech. He was shot by a terrible, racist man.
