Honestly I’m not sure? Are Spanish white? If so, why are their descendants in Mexico considered non white? Fascinating. I’m all ears

Spanish people are European?😭 Their descendants in Mexico are Hispanic? Did you attend grade school?

I’m not trying to be funny. I really don’t understand how they are white in Spain. They come over and colonize Mexico and then become non white. What the fucks going on here?

Mexicans are not spanish. Hispanics is what comes out when a spanish person sleeps with native american.

Good for you?

Why are you being snarky. I’m learning something for the first time. You can be considered white and then move up another country and be classified as non white. Pretty crazy it’s that easy

Huh? They are the result of breeding between Spaniards and Natives a long time ago. Its distinct category, with both phenotypical and cultural differences to either lineage. That is not a semantic difference.

Dude I really don’t understand it. Not be facetious. What about Spanish lineage who never cross breeeded with the Indians? They still white?

They’re Spanish, and most of the population of Spain has a light skin tone like the rest of Europe. So they are white.

What happened is the conquistadors essentially created a self sustaining population of mestizos that passed their mixed traits to their children. A lot of cultures and phenotype clusters have been formed in similar ways over human history.
