the young people from america loves mexico because they do the thigs they always wanted. each time i see a blonder girl, its very hard to guess if she is mexican or american or from europa. the actors who say that there are beatiful womans in Mexico, dont know wat are they saying. one time, when you live all your live there, there arent pretty womans, they are ugly, and this is written by a mexican. i dont fear about the comments about me. i just comparing the real life of a mexican, for usa.

being an america... mmmm, i never think on it. my dad and grandpa told me a lot of bad things about americans, watchin tv series like family guy that show the cruel reality, that ther are pervertides, they having dominated to the latinoamericans. im mexican, so maybe i think that they are discrimitors. but the americans have a good side, they are more polite than the mexicans, they have beatiful womans, originals t.v show, etc. I LOVE YOU BEATIFUL BLONDER GIRLS!
