Orale amigo! I lived in San Antonio for many years. I also lived in Austin, Dallas, and Tyler for 1-2 years at a time. Recently, I moved to the Boston area and I miss my morning tacos! Cheers compadre!

Yeah we come in all different colors. All my siblings we look different.. you never know how the baby will look like. Unlike Asian babies you know what to expect.
well, i was in Tijuana, 2 senoritas asked me where am I from, I told them "Soy de Alaska". They asked me if i lived in an igloo! I blame Hollywood. edit: my goodness, thanks for all the replies!
Curiosamente el idioma mexicano si existe solo que por cuestiones políticas le llamamos nawatl y aún lo hablamos más de dos millones de personas. Pero igual me lo han preguntado jajajajaja
@@Average_mazatlan_citizen en algunos lugares se le llama mexicano. Y no todos los que hablamos nawatl somos descientes de ellos. Y es nāwatl o nāhuatl dependiendo de qué alfabeto uses.
En el náhuatl moderno se emplea nawatl y también se conoce como mexikatlahtolli o habla mexicana. En las comunidades nahuas se puede escuchar "hablo mexicano" o la pregunta "¿hablas mexicano?" Sería interesante que sea un idioma oficial y que lo volviéramos a hablar porque la mayoría de los nombres en Mexihko (México) están en mexicano (nawatl). Nunca lo hubiera imaginado 🤔.
@@hazielmunoz7342 Es idioma oficial, pero su enseñanza es incluso en las regiones nawas mediocre. Además de que a los "blancos" no les agrada la idea de la impartición de esa o cualquier otro idioma nacional en la educación pública. Pero estaría bien que por entidad o municipio se enseñará la lengua histórica de dicho lugar.
a while ago a German girl asked me "what is Mexico's capital?" and I said "it is Mexico city" and then she said that it was weird because it had such a basic name, she also said that all European cities have traditional, important names with lots of history and all that, and I was kinda annoyed, and I was like "ok, but only if you knew the Mexican history"
A missionary in mexico told me that I was supose to speak Spanish like the Spaniards, and I told him that he was supposed to speak English like the British 😎.
They asked me that once (many years ago in the UK) “don’t they speak English in Mexico? They are next to the USA”.... yeah like all Spaniards speak French and viceversa

I'm a northern Mexican and when I was studying abroad there was another Mexican guy from Mexico City staying at the same student's dorm I was. Then certain night we all were talking in the living room when suddenly someone asked us. Hey! Aren't you guys from the same country? Why don't you look alike at all? That question just caught us unaware because to us diversity in Mexico is a very common thing.
@@norcalpinoy9618 So true but I’m the opposite. I’m Mexican but I’ve been mistaken for “Chinese” and my nephew for a “Korean”. 😂 My sister once took an Uber and the driver happened to be Chinese and he thought she was Chinese as well, he couldn’t believe she wasn’t Chinese or Asian 🤣🤣🤣 Our Native American genes mixed with our European genes make us look like East Asians, it’s so funny 😆
I'm Mexican American, light skinned, green eyes, I worked with lots of coworkers from Mexico, El Salvador etc, many didn't speak English so I would speak to them in my 85-90% at best Spanish which they appreciated, the usually white employees would come up and ask me if I learned Spanish in school, I would say no that I learned as a kid at home from my grandparents, they would ask "Are you half white?", that would annoy me so much, my family has all colors and heights, then they would make fun of my accent and say I sounded American, yeah, I was born in the USA and don't have a Mexican accent. Funny thing, no Mexicans etc ever complained about the way I spoke, they only appreciated that I could communicate with them.
@@pippinnai9443 There is no such thing as "Americas" there is only one America, the continent from north pole to south pole period. By saying "Americas" we are just fomenting the stupid ideology from the USA, they traying to enforce the "Americas" concept as they think America is their country. Really sad.
To be fair, Americans don't have names. People from Canada can say that they are Canadian and people from Mexico can call themselves Mexican. There is no name for people from the United States, so they just call themselves American.

@@estebanmartinelli3735 Nope, for starters, the Aztecs are only one of many groups that used to inhabit the territory. Two, there were also Africans that were brought to the colony or migrated when Mexico proclaimed that slavery was abolished there decades before the US. Also (my case) there were many arabs who chose to immigrate there, not to count all the Spanish and Europeans. So Mexicans are a melting pot, but we all proudly consider ourselves as Mexicans.
Don't feel too bad Mexico - citizens of the USA are just as clueless when it comes to their northern neighbours in Canada. We are all white, french speaking hockey players and lumberjacks who shovel snow 12 months a year, are polite and say "eh" alot (OK, the last two are true). Bottom line, they are not educated about much beyond their own borders.
That's because starving Irish people immigrated to Mexico during the Great Famine of 1845. Most Irish are Catholic and wanted to live in a Catholic country. See the history of the San Patricio's. They were Irish soldiers in the Mexican army who helped defeat the French at Puebla on Cinco de Mayo in 1862.
Mexican food is indeed amazing. Here in the US we have "Mexican" restaurants, but it doesn't even compare with the authentic Mexican food, its just in whole another level.
@@jazmine9570 Yeah it seems like restaurants try to make the food more appealing to white ppl, they use cheese and sour cream a lot, also Mexican food is a lot more than tacos , burritos and enchiladas.
I think it's because in the US they modified the idea of Mexican food to work with what they have on hand to prepare it... Some ingredients or processes can be hard to obtain outside of Mexico so they created "Mexican inspired" dishes that are most suited to their ingredients and taste... Which is great and everything, I just wish they could be upfront about not being really mexican...
@@jennifermallard465 Yes! It's an extremely diverse country! However, it's never talked about or seen on TV. All of Latin America and the carribbean Islands are diverse

I few years back I went to an astronomy meeting in Croatia. There I was told the infamous "you don't look Mexican" phrase by a young British woman--who then proceeded to ask my (also Mexican) friend if she was Asian... 🤷🏻♂️ . At the same meeting a young Dutch man told me that he'd been in Mexico because he'd been to the VLA... which is in New Mexico, USA 🤦🏻♂️. I had to start my talk with a slide with a world map and an arrow pointing to where Mexico is 🤷🏻♂️
@@TrueMexico it's amazing indeed! That was my first astronomy meeting outside Mexico and my first ever visit to Europe (10 yrs ago this year!). Let's just say that my first impression of young Europeans was a bit different from what I'd expected... The Croatians were awesome, though--and knew that New Mexico and Mexico are not the same country 😅😎
On that same trip I was complaining a bit about the weather (it was a Mediterranean town at the end of summer--so hot and humid 😅) and someone else told me "you should be used to it, you're Mexican" as if all Mexico had the same beach-resort-type weather. I had to explain that at the time I was living in Guanajuato, which is 2000 m above sea level, has a cool and dry weather, and the nearest beach is about 600 km away--and it is NOT a desert either...

my dear Pauly the thing we hate most is when foreing people says Taco Bell is Mexican food sorry you should never never say that when talking to a mexican guy or girl its like asking some German guy for their nazis siblings or saying something like Rusian people its European people, its just stupid but we let that go just cus we understand how media treat us in USA.
So true...I lived in Europe, the USA and Canada now and I always get that question, "Why don't you look Mexican?" My answer is always What should mexicans look like? Oh boy that stops the questioning. People forget that being Mexican is a Nationality with such a broad diversity in ethnic groups (e.g., Indigenous, Mestizo, African, European, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, etc) and the truth is that the melting pot in Mexico already happened 200 years ago, and more new arrivals continue to come every year who bring more diversity to the population. Go north and you will find large Mexican-Chinese communities and Mexican Menonites in Chihuaha, Guadalajara region French and German descendants in los Altos de Jalisco, Central Mexico has descendants of Spaniards, French and German with Indigenous roots, and the main capital has a large Korean-Mexican community and Eastern European and Mid-East Jewish communities, south west coast in Oaxaca Afro-Mexicans, east coast in Veracruz has descendants of Afro-Mexicans, Spanish, Lebanese, Syrian, Italians, and of course local indigenous groups, and if you go to Chiapas you will find one of the largest communities with descendants of Mexican-Japanese people. So, I would say that even though the majority of Mexican citizens are descendants of Indigenous people, not everyone in Mexico is monochromatic, homogenous, or share the same ethnic background despite the fact that might seem the same externally but something for sure, they all share the same-strong national identity. It is indeed a melting pot that happened years ago while in the USA is just happening now. Great video, thanks again!!!
Ive been to mexico and that question is often asked cause 90% of mexicans look like indians and pratically all of them are brown. I didn't used to see many white people there. I think there is nothing wrong with that question. You are boring people.

Are you going to eat many tacos and tamales?- I asked why she was saying that. She said -because is Independence Day for Mexicans!!! I had to spend some time to explain mexican history....🤷
@G. G. actually if the Mexican army didnt stopped the french in puebla the french would have helped the confederation and the union would have lost. People dont know history but Mexico and the USA have a love and hate relationship. When Porfirio Diaz was president the mexican peso was more valuable than the dollar so the US helped Madero to start the mexican revolution because the US didnt wanted to have Porfirio Diaz on power.
that's hilarious, I work for an American company, a big one, and a couple of years ago they came to me pretty excited saying "5 de Mayo is coming, we are planning to set up a campaign for our Mexican customers to celebrate with them" like planning a big campaign!! and I'm like "hmmm why...?" haha I had to explain to them that we don't really celebrate 5 de Mayo

I worked as a waitress in USA. Believe me, every single day I was asked about my ethnicity or country of origin or my family background. I´m white, green eyes, and they couldn´t believe it. When I answered "I´m from Mexico," people replied "New Mexico?" and I always told them: "No. The Old Mexico." One day someone at college asked me: "Where are you from" (We were inside an elevetor and he asked me which floor and I answered the floor number that I was going to) and because I was so tired of the same question asked for about 4 years back then I answered: "I´m from planet earth." Then, I found out that he was a teacher, hahaha. Also, people often said that my accent wasn´t Mexican (and it is, I´m Mexican), that it was european. Something weird that happened is that my English conversation teacher (I took English as a Second Language classes) was from South Africa and well, I guess that I took his accent; so people said something like, "there´s white people in South Africa and your teacher taught like that..." That´s far away from the truth, because my teacher was black, teaching a white Mexican the English language. Something wierd, only in USA I´m considered a "white Mexican," in México I´m just another Mexican and that´s awesome... Hahahaha.

O que México es de Centroamérica ¡NO! México es de Norteamérica (política y geográficamente) incluso tienen un Tratado USA, Canadá y México; sin incluir a Guatemala y a los países Centroamericanos.
En el sentido más estricto México está tanto en Norteamérica como en Centroamérica. Culturalmente no es como que una frontera divida demasiado. Sobre todo en culturas tan similares como la mexicana y la guatemalteca/centroamericana. Pero entiendo que políticamente sí estamos en Norte América.
De hecho toda la parte septentrional encima del Ecuador es Norte América, Centroamérica No existe como tal, es un término para despreciar y discriminar.
De hecho, no hay tal cosa como Centroamérica. Según lo que aprendí esque sólo hay un continente, el americano, pero los estadounidenses dicen que hay dos continentes, Norte y Sur America. Pero también me dijeron que Mexico están en Centroamérica, pero según ellos sólo hay dos continentes (norte y sur America) no tres (o sea, el tercero siendo Centroamérica). It doesn’t make sense to me haha. Creo que mejor diré que todos somos americanos, porque todos los somos!

True ! This is one thing I've told many people before and I still advocate strongly. But as long as you live on California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, anywhere up to Texas don't be surprised why you get confused for being Mexican. Our history and culture has been out here for decades, almost two centuries. When migration got bigger came and settled here in these states where we have always been the majority and work amongst it's easy to see why those who don't know better would confuse you for such. It would be like me living in Peru and being confused for a Peruvian and getting offended because I'm not. In other words, you are a minority amongst a majority where we have vast culture and customs out here compared to any other spanish speaking groups of people. It's obvious

Orale amigo! I lived in San Antonio for many years. I also lived in Austin, Dallas, and Tyler for 1-2 years at a time. Recently, I moved to the Boston area and I miss my morning tacos! Cheers compadre!
I don't know you but i like you xDDDDDDDDDDDD
Thanks for your love, Tejano.
I was scared to keep reading your post after you said you were Texan!
I'm from Florida, but I have roots and family there, down by Austin.
Cheers! 🇲🇽🇺🇲
Yeah we come in all different colors. All my siblings we look different.. you never know how the baby will look like. Unlike Asian babies you know what to expect.

Pero igual me lo han preguntado jajajajaja

@@Average_mazatlan_citizen en algunos lugares se le llama mexicano. Y no todos los que hablamos nawatl somos descientes de ellos.
Y es nāwatl o nāhuatl dependiendo de qué alfabeto uses.
En el náhuatl moderno se emplea nawatl y también se conoce como mexikatlahtolli o habla mexicana. En las comunidades nahuas se puede escuchar "hablo mexicano" o la pregunta "¿hablas mexicano?"
Sería interesante que sea un idioma oficial y que lo volviéramos a hablar porque la mayoría de los nombres en Mexihko (México) están en mexicano (nawatl). Nunca lo hubiera imaginado 🤔.

a while ago a German girl asked me "what is Mexico's capital?" and I said "it is Mexico city" and then she said that it was weird because it had such a basic name, she also said that all European cities have traditional, important names with lots of history and all that, and I was kinda annoyed, and I was like "ok, but only if you knew the Mexican history"
the country is name after the city of Mexico

Don't feel too bad Mexico - citizens of the USA are just as clueless when it comes to their northern neighbours in Canada. We are all white, french speaking hockey players and lumberjacks who shovel snow 12 months a year, are polite and say "eh" alot (OK, the last two are true). Bottom line, they are not educated about much beyond their own borders.
That's because they haven't traveled beyond their county fair.

That's because starving Irish people immigrated to Mexico during the Great Famine of 1845. Most Irish are Catholic and wanted to live in a Catholic country. See the history of the San Patricio's. They were Irish soldiers in the Mexican army who helped defeat the French at Puebla on Cinco de Mayo in 1862.

Mexican food is indeed amazing. Here in the US we have "Mexican" restaurants, but it doesn't even compare with the authentic Mexican food, its just in whole another level.
@@jazmine9570 Yeah it seems like restaurants try to make the food more appealing to white ppl, they use cheese and sour cream a lot, also Mexican food is a lot more than tacos , burritos and enchiladas.
I think it's because in the US they modified the idea of Mexican food to work with what they have on hand to prepare it...
Some ingredients or processes can be hard to obtain outside of Mexico so they created "Mexican inspired" dishes that are most suited to their ingredients and taste...
Which is great and everything, I just wish they could be upfront about not being really mexican...
Its like in another countries, for example, sushi sold here has a lot of mexican things and it doesnt really look like actual sushi

I few years back I went to an astronomy meeting in Croatia.

At the same meeting a young Dutch man told me that he'd been in Mexico because he'd been to the VLA... which is in New Mexico, USA 🤦🏻♂️. I had to start my talk with a slide with a world map and an arrow pointing to where Mexico is 🤷🏻♂️
You tell them amigo! It's amazing how so-called educated people say things like that.
@@TrueMexico it's amazing indeed! That was my first astronomy meeting outside Mexico and my first ever visit to Europe (10 yrs ago this year!). Let's just say that my first impression of young Europeans was a bit different from what I'd expected... The Croatians were awesome, though--and knew that New Mexico and Mexico are not the same country 😅😎
On that same trip I was complaining a bit about the weather (it was a Mediterranean town at the end of summer--so hot and humid 😅) and someone else told me "you should be used to it, you're Mexican" as if all Mexico had the same beach-resort-type weather. I had to explain that at the time I was living in Guanajuato, which is 2000 m above sea level, has a cool and dry weather, and the nearest beach is about 600 km away--and it is NOT a desert either...

Papi Paul !! 💗
What time is the first show ?😉
So true...I lived in Europe, the USA and Canada now and I always get that question, "Why don't you look Mexican?" My answer is always What should mexicans look like? Oh boy that stops the questioning.
People forget that being Mexican is a Nationality with such a broad diversity in ethnic groups (e.g., Indigenous, Mestizo, African, European, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, etc) and the truth is that the melting pot in Mexico already happened 200 years ago, and more new arrivals continue to come every year who bring more diversity to the population. Go north and you will find large Mexican-Chinese communities and Mexican Menonites in Chihuaha, Guadalajara region French and German descendants in los Altos de Jalisco, Central Mexico has descendants of Spaniards, French and German with Indigenous roots, and the main capital has a large Korean-Mexican community and Eastern European and Mid-East Jewish communities, south west coast in Oaxaca Afro-Mexicans, east coast in Veracruz has descendants of Afro-Mexicans, Spanish, Lebanese, Syrian, Italians, and of course local indigenous groups, and if you go to Chiapas you will find one of the largest communities with descendants of Mexican-Japanese people. So, I would say that even though the majority of Mexican citizens are descendants of Indigenous people, not everyone in Mexico is monochromatic, homogenous, or share the same ethnic background despite the fact that might seem the same externally but something for sure, they all share the same-strong national identity. It is indeed a melting pot that happened years ago while in the USA is just happening now. Great video, thanks again!!!
Thanks for sharing that!

I worked as a waitress in USA. Believe me, every single day I was asked about my ethnicity or country of origin or my family background. I´m white, green eyes, and they couldn´t believe it. When I answered "I´m from Mexico," people replied "New Mexico?" and I always told them: "No. The Old Mexico." One day someone at college asked me: "Where are you from" (We were inside an elevetor and he asked me which floor and I answered the floor number that I was going to) and because I was so tired of the same question asked for about 4 years back then I answered: "I´m from planet earth." Then, I found out that he was a teacher, hahaha. Also, people often said that my accent wasn´t Mexican (and it is, I´m Mexican), that it was european. Something weird that happened is that my English conversation teacher (I took English as a Second Language classes) was from South Africa and well, I guess that I took his accent; so people said something like, "there´s white people in South Africa and your teacher taught like that..." That´s far away from the truth, because my teacher was black, teaching a white Mexican the English language. Something wierd, only in USA I´m considered a "white Mexican," in México I´m just another Mexican and that´s awesome... Hahahaha.

I was crossing to the US from Mexico and even though I’m a US citizen, I live in Mexico. And so the border official told me my name was unusual and sent me to secondary inspection. All since my name doesn’t really sound Mexican.

How many times they said you dont look mexican, they think Im italyan or from Argentina since Im not short height and my skin is not dark, they dont know how diverse is our country in every sense. Greetings from northern México, Sonora.

@Kenneth Cano but is more like we decided not to learn than there weren't anyone around us that can teach us how to tbh.
@@vampbl7291 No, Iearned how to dance as a kid and teen, but I lost the ability as an adult 😌
I don't know how to dance but I'm looking to learn (I'm from México!).
For me the top two are
"You don't look Mexican" and "Mexico is in South America"
one guy from USA asked me : Are all houses in México made from adobe and, Do you only have dirt roads in México?
that one is sad considering that more homes get destroyed in Florida by Hurricanes, than in Mexico. also an American home is more like to to catch fire than a Mexican home.
A mi me hicieron la misma pregunta hace años.
From Adobe? Ask them if their houses were made in Photoshop
All houses in Mexico are squared though

I’m from Barcelona but living in Salt Lake City for the last 25’years. When I recently got here someone asked me if we had trucks and freeways in Barcelona, to what I answered that we still don’t have cars but walk to places as well as we don’t talk human language but communicate by barking. I think he believed me.

A question I got frequently from my Dutch family & friends: 'How can you live in such a poor country without electricity, internet, modern transportation, or a decent roof over your head?'
And then I had to explain them that Mexico is actually a thriving and even leading country nowadays when it comes to energy, internet coverage (about 98.5% of all people living in DF actually have a cell phone, a computer or both, while that coverage in the Netherlands is still only 95-96%), most people in DF have a brand new car, and the houses have improved much to the standard of European houses in regard to energy and insolation!
Totally relatable, when I used to go to school in the USA they said I didn't look Mexican because I wasn't brown.
Oh and now you live in mexico just like me? :D
Thats so true. Im pale as hell and everyone thinks im white
I mean, you're white... but they don't think you're Mexican.

That's what I'm talking about. I said you were white because of your pale skin, but, if you don't consider yourself white, what are you then? Mestiza?

Soy mexicano, gracias por dar a conocer un poco mas sobre nosotros. A decir verdad, no nos molesta a todos dichas preguntas, incluso hasta nos dan risa (a algunas personas). Aquí nos reímos por todo. Así que con confianza. Si nos preguntan sobre estereotipos, aquí con gusto les hacemos saber que están equivocados.
Algunas pregutas si molestan como lo del narco trafico, da verguenza explicar un problema muy serio como es eso que no deja avanzar al pais y todos los dias nos genera inseguridad aun estando en zonas seguras no es algo que lo consideramos orgullo.

In one of the most prestigious shops in Madrid, El Corte Inglés, my wife was outraged to find Mexican music CD's filed under South America, so she called the manager, who apologised. A few weeks later, we went back and they have changed the label to Latin American music!
Well done!
Hahaha. I was shopping in a Mexican supermarket in Mexico and the music in the background was pornographic rap. I called the store manager and told him what was going on but he ignored me!

Hablando de lo de los burros, yo conocía a un señor más o menos de entre 80 y 90 años, que si, se montaba en un burro y a trabajar, pero ya la gente ya no se sube a burros porque, son "inútiles" comparados con un auto o un caballo, son inseguros, ya que el señor que yo conocía, lo mató el burro, le paso por encima y la principal razón por la que la gente ya no se sube a burros es porque la cultura cambia
Gran vídeo, está muy bien planeado y me sentí identificado!
Al igual que los caballos, son muy dificiles de mantener y cuentan con multiples inconvenientes, siendo que cualquier carro o transporte de combustion puede cumplir y de mejor manera, ademas que en la ciudad es muy poco conveniente utilizarlos, creo que los burros en México estan amenazados de extinguirse.
Ademas que hay que agregar que los burros no son originarios de México, creo que son de Medio Oriente o Africa
Exacto ya ni siquiera en los pueblos ves a la gente usando burros.
@@1996koke no que dices son bastante comunes todavía pero los que lo tienen son principalmente viejitos y los caballos son bastante comunes verlos en fiestas de pueblos por qué son bastante valiosos para los ganaderos.

Paul, a lot of English speaking vloggers seem to come and go from CDMX. They are passionate one week and gone the next. Kudos to you for sticking with it and always producing interesting, educational and thought provoking content! (I especially enjoyed your food videos (micheladas are food?).m You helped us prepare for our first visit. We have now been to the city 4 times and will be back again).
Yeah it's true. Many of them are 'digital nomads' and RUclips is a way to earn money used for travel. That's fair enough. But I live in CDMX, Mexican partner of many years etc. Great to know you've been enjoying trips to CDMX and thanks for your support!
Well....I am mexican and lived in mexico all my life, but since I can remember, people always asked me if I am japanese or chinese. XD to be honest It doesn't bother anymore.
My cousin is the same! Lol he looks Japanese. The reason that happens is because the Native Americans were once Asians and they migrated to America threw Russia to Alaska. It makes sense
How you learn english?

Here in England they have asked me " Do you have electricity? Is there supermarkets in Mexico, where to buy clothes?" Among others. In fact when I came back from a holiday in Mexico visiting my family some one in my church asked me " did you were does shoes in Mexico? " I was confused and said yes and he said how thete aren't any proper roads there
My kids get the same question but instead it’s “You don’t look Puerto Rican” that’s so ridiculous we come in all shades.
Damn. I'm so used to hearing that about me being Mexican. It just sounds so silly. Latinos are probably the most mixed ppl I can think of.

Mexican is a nationality 🇲🇽 not a race although alot of them are brown, they have different colors.
Exactly
Willy BustBack yep
Yeah..
@Dani 08 some are Brown and black too, but yes white also.
Yup I am Mexican and I know Mexican friends that are blond or withe, I am proudly a brown Mexican
I'm a white Mexican and I actually find it quite funny how people react when they discover I'm Mexican. I've been confused with so many nationalities but people never assume I'm Mexican
Most people assume I’m white just because of my name and white skin but I enjoy surprising them by speaking fluent Spanish. Americans and Canadians just have too many preconceptions of how we looks because of what they see in media/entertainment.
¿Usted consideran la palabra Whitexican ofensiva?
@@vocesdelrioriourbano7236 la verdad no, si bien se que se usa en tono de burla a veces, no me molesta si me lo dicen
Maybe in the 1930's. Being white and Mexican is well known all over the world because of the live streams.
@@alfredolpzjr you'll be surprised, talking from experience a lot of people today still have the mindset that all mexicans are like the stereotypes and they also react the same if they find a black Mexican, or an Asian Mexican
O que México es de Centroamérica ¡NO!
México es de Norteamérica (política y geográficamente) incluso tienen un Tratado USA, Canadá y México; sin incluir a Guatemala y a los países Centroamericanos.
Cuidado el pinche Trump quiere quitar leyes establesidas por los primeros chingomes... Quisas va querer que Mexico sea sur America
@@pablop9495 No estaría mal, mismo idioma, misma historia, misma gente, deberíamos de juntarnos mas con los del sur y hacer algo chingón.
En el sentido más estricto México está tanto en Norteamérica como en Centroamérica. Culturalmente no es como que una frontera divida demasiado. Sobre todo en culturas tan similares como la mexicana y la guatemalteca/centroamericana. Pero entiendo que políticamente sí estamos en Norte América.
De hecho toda la parte septentrional encima del Ecuador es Norte América, Centroamérica No existe como tal, es un término para despreciar y discriminar.
De hecho, no hay tal cosa como Centroamérica. Según lo que aprendí esque sólo hay un continente, el americano, pero los estadounidenses dicen que hay dos continentes, Norte y Sur America. Pero también me dijeron que Mexico están en Centroamérica, pero según ellos sólo hay dos continentes (norte y sur America) no tres (o sea, el tercero siendo Centroamérica). It doesn’t make sense to me haha. Creo que mejor diré que todos somos americanos, porque todos los somos!
Someone in Germany once asked me if we had stores like this (a small size supermarket,) in Mexico....

But there are entire communities in Mexico who speak Low German.
Enjoy the videos--you are kind of funny and I appreciate that. And thanks to whoever is doing the Spanish subtitles--it helps me practice my Spanish.
I think u (commentator) has been very accurate, I am Mexican American and I always tried to correct people about Mexican living in Mexico. Mostly people living in USA they do not have a clue how Mexico is, and they make their own conclusions and opinions, but thanks to this kind of videos they will have better understanding.
It's because of all the illegals I live in Texas and they risk their lives to cross the border illegally I just figure it must be a seriously dangerous place if they don't want to live there

I lived in Wisconsin for 10 months and the first thing my classmates asked me was that if everyone in Mexico was a drug dealer 🤣 I was so tired of it until one day I told one of them if he knew El Chapo, and obviously he said he knew him, I then proceeded to tell him he’s my uncle and if I was him I wouldn’t be messing with me. That was the last time someone asked me that stupid question. Can’t believe how ignorant Americans can be.
America is a continent
When I was on vacation I met some canadian girls that questioned me about that narco topic, the were like "Is it true that you can find chopped heads on the streets?" I was astonished
Mexico is one beautiful country, and I love there's food and culture , is so rich.
My friends, "I'm color blind!" Me: "How many times have I had to tell you to stop calling me your Mexican friend? And how many times have I told you I'm Peruvian and Nicoya?"
LOL, F for all central and southamericans that get confused for being mexicans.
True ! This is one thing I've told many people before and I still advocate strongly. But as long as you live on California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, anywhere up to Texas don't be surprised why you get confused for being Mexican. Our history and culture has been out here for decades, almost two centuries. When migration got bigger came and settled here in these states where we have always been the majority and work amongst it's easy to see why those who don't know better would confuse you for such. It would be like me living in Peru and being confused for a Peruvian and getting offended because I'm not.
In other words, you are a minority amongst a majority where we have vast culture and customs out here compared to any other spanish speaking groups of people. It's obvious
