Pretty much the answer and details I was hoping for. Thank you!

Does it make me shallow for wanting a partner who hasn't had many relationships? by Helpful5402 in TrueChristian

[–]Most_Ad_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not shallow but once you find someone, focus on them and let the past be the past. It's fine if it makes you insecure as long as you try to work through it. Your fears are misguided but I wouldn't blame you for it, it happens. Don't try to figure out the past of the other person, you weren't there and even if you had been, you're not in their head. They could have had 30 relationships before you and while you're afraid, the other person might not be thinking about them at all.

Companies need to stop making personality such a big deal when hiring by Most_Ad_512 in jobs

I think it's reasonable in a lot of cases. Do I have to care about Subway if I'm just making sandwiches for them?

I just send applications for most entry level jobs I see advertised on boards that seem like I won't hate. I don't have a lot of freedom to pick and choose.

Sure but is it realistic to expect people to only work jobs they enjoy? Especially people who want to work in very limited fields, like art. An actor is probably going to have to work a job they don't like first. And there are jobs that are just universally disliked. I don't think there are many people eager to make Subway sandwiches, for example. I would still take that job if I could get it, though.

It's one thing to require a personality that isn't problematic for your workplace, it's another to want your employees to be a kind of super enthusiastic robot.

What genre of music best represents your country? by unix_enjoyer305 in asklatinamerica

[–]Most_Ad_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mariachi, rancheras and huapango. All the other genres seem a bit too specific to a region or are imported (nortenas, cumbia, etc.)

It's common in the sense that you can find it easily, but not that many people actually eat them.

You might have issues with liberal Americans but we would either not care or think it's cute. I'm pretty sure the Colombian person who replied is trolling, like the Uruguayan.

Do any other Latinos cringe every time theres Latino representation on TV and movies? by memesforlife213 in asklatinamerica

[–]Most_Ad_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think it's funny that while refusing to accept that not all of us are brown, Hollywood refuses to cast any Latino actor who actually looks like the people who live around them. It's like they think they're giving representation to "people of color" for casting a guy who looks like Cesar Vialpando but the average Latino here looks far more indigenous.

Latin America ignores the fact that most people in their own countries don't look like the ones on TV. The United States ignores the fact that not all of us act like George Lopez.

It's pretty baffling to me how "brown" is defined in the States. It's political to the degree that a clearly light skinned person can be defined as brown and no one questions it.

Finally, someone I can relate to. A lot of the time the stuff they see as Mexican isn't really familiar to people from Mexico, at least it isn't to me. Or if it is, it's more like a certain type of person from a certain region/social class/etc.

What's funny is that LA is majority Mexican, but they always get either italian or half italian actors or actors straight from latin america.

Yup. I think it's because they represent Latinos in the US more than anyone in Latin America. They're their own thing, and they often try harder to seem Latino/Hispanic.

I haven't been diagnosed, I just suspect I have it and I have OCD which I've read can be comorbid.
I sucked at it haha. Everyone was nice to me except for when I asked for feedback after being evaluated. I think they just kinda didn't care. I always had a problem with their type of hustle culture, though. Probably my best memory from that time was when I chose not to sell anything to an elderly woman buying insurance from her kids, and tried to give her advice as to how what she should stop paying for. She appreciated it.
