Nowadays, the term Latino is used to describe somebody who originates from a Spanish-speaking country in Latino America.
Some things to take note about Latinos is that ANYONE can be Latino regardless of race, because Latino is an emphasizer of ethnicity. From a pale-skinned ginger from Mexico to a dark-skinned curlyhead from Puerto Rico, we are all Latinos whose land was colonized by the Spaniards.
(Except for the Guianas and Brazil because they were colonized by the Portuguese and British. As a result, they’re associated with South America, but not LATINO America)
Second note, no, Spaniards are not Latino. They are Hispanic because they’re also a Spanish-speaking country, but they are not Latino—they’re Europeans.
Third note, no, the French and the Italians and whoever else is European with Latin roots—they’re not Latino either! They are Latin, yes, but that is a separate term and they do not originate from Latino America. (Nor do they speak Spanish.)
Aaand that sums up a Latino.

Girl 1: “So, like… what are you?”
Girl 2: “Oh, I’m a Latino! I was born in El Salvador.”
Girl 1: “Oh? I thought you were White?”
Girl 2: “Well… that too. That makes me a White Latina.”
Girl 1: “Oh.”

Get the Latinomug. A cultural aesthetic, sensibility, and movement that celebrates the style, creativity, and influence of Latino identity across music, fashion, language, attitude, and media while emphasizing how Latino identity doesn't need to be tied to stereotypes.

Get the Latino-amazônicomug. The act of choosing weapons/ protectional gear before a battle. The battle consists (but is not limeted to) the use of Death Sticks/Poles. Gear can range from lacross padding to duct-tape suits. Dodging of a Latino Draft can result in mercy less tea-bagging, and showing of the goat at inappropriate times.
Alex: Rob, lets use these sticks to battle your little brother.
Rob: I'm game
Garrett: Wait, we need to instate a Latino Draft first.
