LatinX - Results (142 votes) Is a good term to use 6.34% (9 votes) 9 Is a bad term, and should not be used 74.65% (106 votes) 106 I do not have a strong opinion. 19.01% (27 votes) 27 Hey, I was curious what CE thinks about this term. I get emails from my university about attending LatinX diversity groups. I, myself, am half hispanic and find the term relatively ridiculous, to the point where I do not attend diversity groups because of this term. My hispanic friends also agree, and think that the term amounts to white women telling hispanic people to speak their language. In other words, it's cultural imperialism. Our arguments: You cannot pronounce the world in Spanish. It is clear that the word has been derived in an English speaking environment, among English speaker and is for English speakers. Second, the word it is replacing is a Spanish word. Hispanic people saying Latino are speaking Spanish. They aren't speaking English, and having English speakers trying to tell Spanish speakers to modify their language is not really appropriate. Hispanic people don't tell Americans to change their language because it doesn't align with their politics. Third: Spanish male/female word roots is just part of the language. You can't change this. Curious where CE lies on this matter. Hispanic issues arent discussed lately, but they are still important. <cite>Winrawr posted [p:956465313] in LatinX...

I am more educated than you. As I'm sure you know, hispanic is often a nebulous identity that encompasses entirely Caucasian people and various different shades. Many Latino academics are 'white-passing', largely because skin color dictates how successful we are in both American and Latino socities. The lighter, the better. It is because of this, the only people who tend to use the term are light-skinned persons in academic settings. They are educated, and a largely separate population with different problems and goals than mexican migrant farmer in California. They don't speak Spanish predominantly in the settings they work, and race generally hasnt something they struggle with as often. These individuals focus more on gender isses, sexual identity issues, and that's fine. Just understand that the general hispanic population might not approve of certain behaviors and ideals they are relevant in academic social circles.

You know damn well this topic comes up often on CE with the same dumb arguments against it Damn, ill tell my proudly Puerto Rican native advisor that shes a fake Latina for using it then Lmao, you're white. Why are you always posting this defensive and sheltered nonsense every single time this topic comes up despite tons of Hispanic people stating their uncomfortability with it? No, it's not just Latino academics that use it. You're just telling on yourself by constantly repeating that, completely ignoring the increasing usage in media and advertising, the corporate world, and many other things. Your anecdotal experience in your small bubble is meaningless. I doubt you even talk to many people with your anger issues. Many of us don't like this label the way it's growing in use, especially by profit driven assholes and white people. It's fine if people themselves want to identify as that. But the "Hispanic community" or "Latino community" in the past now regularly becoming the "Latinx community" will have people feel it's imposing no matter the intention. This is not hard to understand. --- "It lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge" <cite>InfinityMonster posted [p:956493872] in LatinX... [t:79583262]...</cite> <quote>Shezarr posted... </cite> <quote>It was invented by hispanics, and latino/a/x academics are pretty much the only people I see use it. You know damn well this topic comes up often on CE with the same dumb arguments against it Damn, ill tell my proudly Puerto Rican native advisor that shes a fake Latina for using it then</quote>Lmao, you're white. Why are you always posting this defensive and sheltered nonsense every single time this topic comes up despite tons of Hispanic people stating their uncomfortability with it? No, it's not just Latino academics that use it. You're just telling on yourself by constantly repeating that, completely ignoring the increasing usage in media and advertising, the corporate world, and many other things. Your anecdotal experience in your small bubble is meaningless. I doubt you even talk to many people with your anger issues. Many of us don't like this label the way it's growing in use, especially by profit driven assholes and white people. It's fine if people themselves want to identify as that. But the "Hispanic community" or "Latino community" in the past now regularly becoming the "Latinx community" will have people feel it's imposing no matter the intention. This is not hard to understand. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!
