So I've heard this term quite a bit. I've heard it said that certain people are "whitewashed". I've never paid much attention to it until a friend of my little sister said that I was whitewashed. I have only met the friend once & did not really speak to her.
What made me whitewashed? Is it b/c I don't speak in an accent like Cheech Marin? Or is it b/c my boyfriend is white? Or perhaps it's b/c I like to eat pot roast better than chicken enchiladas?
I don't get it. Why am I considered to be whitewashed by one ignorant moron simply b/c I don't fit her mold of what a Latina should be?
Can someone please explain this to me? Also, a little off-topic, does this rule also apply to "wiggers"?
Give me a break!
