Are mos Mexicans consider caucasians??

Scientifically, yes.  Negroid, Caucausion, and Asian are the three categories identified by Anthropologists.  Also note "Human populations do vary biologically in many ways, but it is important to realize that few of these ways are correlated with each other."  The three categories were established at the beginning of Anthropology (it's only abou 150 years old as a science)...Presently, many anthropologists point out that the differences between black/caucasian/asian's exist, but when put on a spectrum, you couldn't tell the difference from one to the next because the changes are so slight.  Egypt is a good example, in the south, they're darker, in the north, they're lighter skinned.  What are they?  They exhibit many bone structures of both caucasians and negroid.  They live on the continent of Africa... hhmmm?  \n\nso, first I had to debunk the whole caucasian thing to begin with...it exists only as a marker for science, not in reality...\n\nbut...by using that marker, most people from the country of Mexico exhibit caucasian traits in their skeletal structure.  I didn't know this until my best friends mom told me they were caucasian.  I said "what?  I don't follow"...and she said Latinos are considered cacasoid.  Hard Liberal Arts and Science Educated Latinos will know as much (i.e, if you majored in music in college, you probably didn't get this lecture).  \n\nPolitically:\nPeople of Mexican descent are considered "caucasian of hispanic descent" (go look at any government form).  Hispanic is a term derived by politicians in the late 1940's early 1950's to describe people the spoke Spanish as having descended from Spain; however, the politically correct word for people from this area of the world is Latino --- being of/from Latin America.  \n\nby the way...most mexicans have both indegenous blood and European blood...a mix...Look at people from Spain...they're not all dark, most of them are very "white".\n\nHope this helped some!\n\nGrab a cultural anthro book on race, you'll find plenty more.

I have known Belinda's who were of all different races here in America.  I don't think it is strictly a Caucasian name.

The answer is no, however, you'll be surprised to know the only ones that do come under that category are Latinos,  (part of the equal credit opportunity government compliance, fair housing and home mortgage laws) Ethnicity and race are two different things.\nThese is how they are put together (categorized)\n\nAmerican Indian or Alaska Native\n\nAsian\n\nBlack or African American\n\nNative Hawaiian or Other, Pacific Islander\n\nWhite, Hispanic or Latino ,  Not Hispanic or Latino

I think people see them as a supremicist group. And supremicist groups are no good. "Por La Raza todo, Fuera de La Raza nada" Everything for the Mexican Race, Nothing for outside the Mexican Race. It is saying that they believe that if you are not Mexican than you are not deserving. I disagree with that. I am white and my husband Mexican (from Mexico) and there is never a way that I could agree with that, and neither would he. Cant we all just get along?

Not not Spaniard.....Mexicans are Indians only a small percentage actually have Spaniard & French blood.... if this is not true this which I have "spoken" prove it with facts not rhetoric.  To speak Spanish a Spaniard does not make.

They ain't Caucasians. That's bullshit spread by themselves to make them feel better than the other dark indians. Truth is, they're brown and mixed.

I believe that Mexicans or at least most of them are a mixture of Indian and Spanish ancestry. Some have more Spanish than others. This is because Spanish conquistadors invaded South America and Mexico in the 1500's and tried to wipe them out by breeding with their women. That is why they speak Spanish in Mexico. Latino is a Spanish word. When people think of Spaniards they mistakenly assume that they are all tan skinned black haired people, like Mexicans. But actually Spaniards are Caucasian,and their skin can range from pale to tan and thier hair can be any color as well.\n\nIt should be noted that the proper use for Indian is to use it to refer to people of India. So really Mexicans were once Aztec before the Spanish invaded. But a lot of people still call Native Americans "Indians" and they are very similar to the Aztec peoples, just to clarify. They were basically the same race, but a different culture. But Indian is a confusing term for most people. Although I'm not offended by it's improper use, I find it's less complicated to call them Native Americans, or South Americans, or for the people of Mexico, Mexicans. But in considering your question I think that your use of it was okay, and not confusing for me.

i do not think they want to become caucasians..Whiteness of the skin has always been revered in Asia particular among women. A bit like our own history (Caucasians) before the whole fashion of tanning meaning that you had enough money to spend on leisure activities...and because being tanned is associated with wellness (a myth of course).\n\nThe "whiter" the girl is , the more respect she gains, maybe some kind of nobility.\n\nLots of them carry umbrellas to protect themselves from the sun...In some countries like Japan for ex...some women wear extra-heavy very white make-up...\n\nLoads of products for skin whitening in those markets. It is like surgery of the eyelid in order to create a two-fold eyelid : to enlarge the eyes..\n\n..or some women will undergo more radical surgery like elongating their legs.....\n\nBut to become white ? I certainly do not think so !\n\nHow many caucasian women use make-up to create a false upward and elongated eye ?\n\nIf you go and read China online, Taiwan daily etc..sometimes you find articles about that particular question.

I'm white and I married a Mexican. One of the best decisions of my life. (Not just because he's Mexican, but becasue I love him and he loves me. Race should never matter.)

Latinas speak their minds more and many are good at taking care of their men (in a very good way).  Caucasian women are more athletic / outdoorsy and usually more appreciative of men who speak their minds.  All women appreciate men who are confident and kind.
