How would i label myself?

Question

my father is half mexican, half caucasian and my mother is full caucasian. i was born and raised here so obviously I'm american. i wasn't raised with "true" mexican culture (speaking spanish and mexican holidays) so how would i label myself?

Answer 1

Half and half. I'm Spanish (not Mexican), and French.

Answer 2

Just say "half spanish, half caucasian." I'm tired of people who are muts explaining their whole blood line.

Answer 3

I agree with michelle. You are what you are.

Answer 4

American.  I don't think that there should be ANY hyphenated American labels such as Asian-american or hispanic-american or even African-american. (no offense)

Answer 5

american with a little bit of mexican. just because u don'tt do what ppl in mexico do ur still part of it,no matter what

Answer 6

I would say mexican american. My grandson's mother is half and half and my son is full caucasian. I am teaching my grandson about his heritage, because I think it's extremely important. Then again, I'm also a fan of genealogy
