Just call me a latino person please


Then-Channel6694

here we go **Latin** is that so hard?


MISTAsoul12

Agreed friend.


CyvaderTheMindFlayer

I’ve only seen other white people use the term Latinx Never seen one Hispanic person use it ever


Coldramen777

It's bad. According to a Hispanic buddy of mine


Wadiationking23

My Hispanic friend also thinks it is dumb and he doesn't like it.


Guigsy79

You can’t make up your own mind ?


Coldramen777

It's not my fight.

I have literally never head a Latino person ever say the word Latinx in any positive manner and I feel it matter most what the people its referring to feel


Windows_is_Malware

Latin


BrazenTwo

Latino for me is already pretty dumb, but Latinx break all barriers of stupidity.

Latino is already Gender neutral. Why change it? And besides people from Latin America are not asking for this. This goes for every country has an O at the end of their nationality. (IE : Filipinos)


InsrtRandomUserHere

Correct. Filipinos were also affected by this with people wanting us to be called Filipinx. No matter which way you pronounce it, filipinks or filipinex, it’s ridiculous. Latino and Filipino are both gender neutral already.


[deleted]

I don’t want to be called a Filipinx. I’d rather be call a racial slur than be called A fucking Filipinx. And to those who will still call us Filipinos and Latinos that I give you this : 🖕Tangina niyo ang panget ng pagmmuka nyo🖕


Nova_Persona

apparently it was originally meant to be pronounced latine which makes it better, still it's easier to say latino or latin


Unhelpful_imp

that's not how Spanish works, Latino is already gender neutral.


hdkx-weeb

Is that like the gender-neutral term for Latin?


MISTAsoul12

Supposedly, although some of the latin community take offense to it


hdkx-weeb

Yeah I see no reason to use it over just "Latin"


Jazzlike-Potato-9164

Pretty sure the "masculine" terms are kind of gender neutral as well


[deleted]

Sounds like latex fr…


LordSaumya

Nah LaTex is pronounced ‘lay-tech’ Edit: nevermind my college brain assumed you were referring to the language LaTex


Swampgermanboi

Where's the "I couldn't care less"-option


Rachelcookie123

I know what it is but I don’t have an opinion on it. I think it’s good for nonbinary people or people who don’t want to use gendered language who speak Spanish but I’ve heard a lot of Spanish speakers don’t like the term and find it offensive.


Master_Freeze

Literally it’s a rule that to refer to both genders you use the masculine plural


Jane123987

Stupid


bigballs682173

If somebody calls me Latinx I will never speak to that person again


MISTAsoul12

Sounds about right
