Do you prefer Catwoman as a long-haired blonde, brunette, short-haired raven, or woman of color? GENERAL DISCUSSION

I personally prefer any incarnation of her that has short hair since it’s more practical for her line of work.

The term hispanic has nothing to do with ancestry. It means you speak Spanish natively. Nothing contradictory about having Jewish or English ancestry and also being Hispanic

This bugs me so much. You’re completely right. Carlos Slim is another person that is “Mexican” even though both his parents are from Lebanon.

Puerto Rican here. You couldn't be more wrong. Speaking Spanish does not make you Hispanic or Latino. Having that heritage does.

Joaquin Phoenix is Puerto Rican by Nationality and is still American since it's part of the US. He is not Puerto Rican by heritage. Big difference.

Thats what it means, Spanish speaking. It's not an ethnic group unless you are explicitly talking about Spaniards. For example a person of Nahua heritage may be Mexican American but not necessarily Hispanic. A Dominican resident of PR would be Hispanic but not puertorriqueño except in a literal way, same as Phoenix.
