...like how the hell am I gonna react when my daughter brings home a latin boyfriend.

Also interesting is that this is something that does bother me.

Well, here's how an intelligent man would react: Does he speak latin or is he from Spain? Latin America? Central or South? Mexican? Salvadorian? Argentinian? Native (Mayan? Azteca? Inca?)? Family ties? Bi or tri-lingual? Origin of birth, basis in specific culture, sub-sect of religion? La Cosmica Raza?

Brown men & white me do an equally good job of knocking women up. And if you're stressing who your child will bring home, regardless of race, you've lost the battle to be a good parent before its begun - that's a decision that I believe your child will make for themselves and involves you... not even a little bit. No matter what\who we want our kids to become, they will ultimately reach an age where we have zero influence or control. Trying to exhibit that control will merely result in loss of respect. To draw an anology from our youth: think Paul Sundling.

Besides, there's a chance that your daughter my bring my son home - and he's half Mexican.
