That's right, don't let the facts dissuade you from claiming that
you're
Hispanic!


"Hispanic" is a culture. A person who spends 80% of their life, and all
of
their adult life in a culture will be of that culture.

Or pretend to be, as you do.

A person can not pretend to be of a cultural group. For example, many second
generation US Hispanics are bicultural, and have elements of both "American"
culture and Hispanic culture. In many cases, such people are really of a
third, distinct culture, which is based on being bilingual and speaking a
"special" language that is a mix of English and Spanish.

In any case, culture is acquired by the individual by exposure... anyone who
is nearly 100% immersed in a culture from an early age is going to be of
that culture about 99%.

Since you are unemployed, you might take some time to study cultural
anthropology and sociology. It would benefit you greatly; I've seldom
encountered an international DXer with such a mean and horrible cultural
bias and such a total lack of understanding of any language but American
English. Burdick and Lederer were writing about you and those like you.
