I am sorry I have always had problems with this kind of mentality. I personally do not see a difference between being called Hispanic or Latina. I know that there may be historical difference, but that is about the origin of the word. As you can see most people don't even know the difference and don't mean any harm when they say one or the other. I am both and I am neither... I am a person! Why do we always have to attach a label to people?
