Question

Parts of Latin America have lots of black

& mixed people.(Panama,Columbia,Cuba,Brazil,ect)... feel that J-has some African anscestry cause of her body type.Some Puerto ricans have become really offended when i say this,but why??i think J-Lo got her booty from Africa.to be fair,i've never seen a Mexican-Guatamelan-salvadorian-Peuvian woman with this body type.i feel they are built more like white women.What do you think??I'm saying this as a Black woman.

Answer 1

Ummm J-Lo had a lipo suction procedure.

Puerto Ricans are mixed with black!

Puerto Ricans, who also commonly identify themselves as Boricuas, are largely the descendants of Europeans, Taíno Indians, African slaves.

Answer 2

j-lo is part black,that body type only comes from Africa.

Answer 3

As a black woman, you should fight for the US be less race- oriented, so stop asking this kind of question. By the way, don't you have a better think to be proud than "the body's curves of black women"? You play the white game. I think you should be proud of Condoleeza Rice, for example.

Answer 4

That ain't no Spanish ***, that's a negra's ***

Answer 5

Ignorance is intolerable to some, and stereotyping falls into that category. If you are saying it about someone that is definitely in your own race, it seems to be more acceptable. Race and all that comes with it, is a touchy subject to most people, especially victims of prejudice. We have to be careful about what we say out loud as a sign of respect to all.

Answer 6

When the white Caucasians conquisitadores were mixed in Latin America with either the native populations (let´s call them Indian ethnic groups for facility: Aztecs, Toltecs, Mayas, Incas) or with the descendants from African slaves, the following combinations resulted: w + indio= mestizo (in various descending grades according to which of both races supplies most genes), w + black is mulatto, quarteroon, octoroon etc according to less and less black genes. Examples of quarteroons or octoroons are Whitney Houston and Halle Berry. JLO is probably a 1/4 or 1/8 mestiza. Body characteristics are just that: you can have very ugly ones: africanoid nose and lips, extremely thick protruding butt, (stygia pygia) and extremely handsome ones. see the above ladies, and representatives from the East African tribes for ex. the Haussas.
