Kyle-MParticipantIn the Hispanic culture, a Latina, at the age of 15 will have a quinceañera (A gigantic birthday party with $1,000 cakes, reserved dance halls, punch fountains, 15 male escorts, and much more). This in the Hispanic culture was historically for the parents of a niña to advertise her as available for marriage. It was very important for the ladies to get married so they would be supported and protected for the rest of their lives and would no longer be the responsibility of their parents. I can testify to this because I am a 15 year old, bilingual and very involved in the tejana culture that exists here where I live. Being blonde-haired, blue-eyed, white skinned, bilingual, and my parents having a new Corvette sends infinite messages to a Hispanic couple with a young lady they’re eager to get out from under their roof. (1) Light skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair is very desired in the Hispanic culture because it is what is not common, just like a tan here. (2) Being bilingual is very important because supposedly it shows intelligence and ambition which is ideal for a husband. (3) My parents having a Corvette (which happens to be leased) sends the message that I am wealthy and that if I were in love with a young lady that I would do whatever it took to provide for her and I would be capable. Due to all this, on countless occasions I have been approached by Latina mothers asking me if I am looking for a wife. They say this 50% seriously and 50% humorously. Of course I am not yet interested in getting married but maybe in the future it will help me.
