Haha. I my family is from Belize and never had problems. I think Gringo stands for white Westerner. Black is good because the lack of experience with us. GDL I was good. Cant speak for DF. Yet.
Tex, myself, Hencredible, and AmericanInEurope can all attest to that unless you're uncomfortable with nonstop eyefucking, you'll be fine in DF.
Is it actual eye-fucking, as in "damn, wish this gringo would come talk to me" or is it just benign staring people do in homogenous countries when they see any foreigner that looks very different? I think the two should not be confused.
Mexico is something every brotha should experience IMO. Germany was on par but German women would approach and let you know they are interested. This is 06 Germany, I dont know how 13 Germany is.
I think Mexico is having a renaissance right now. It's just a cool spot to be at. I haven't even hit GDL yet but that's on the agenda. DF and Playa del Carmen are both dope. It's just a different kind of energy that's taking place at this moment which I'm not seeing anymore in the US. People are doing better than before, the economy is growing pretty rapidly, and you can see it in the way people socialize when they go out. The security situation is also very good for those places I mentioned in particular. I guess it's the relatively conservative nature of the country that is the reason it's not brought up much.
I totally agree. Mexico is growing economically and their is a renaissance going on right now. The country is become more liberalized than aver before. Those old ideas of the conservative colonial times are dying and are dying fast. A lot of women down there are hip to the idea of feminism, since they have been a "Macho" country forever. Not sure if its a good thing or a bad thing but ONS within the Mexican people are not uncommon anymore and many women in Mexico nowadays are getting trash drunk in parties all over the country when 10 years ago it was very frowned upon to see women do that. Also there is lots of American customs being imported into the country. Although Its good for Mexico that they are growing as a country, I fear that they will become so Americanized that they will end up losing their culture and be a mini copy of the US. I even heard that the media down there is trying to shove the Thanksgiving holiday down their throats. Hopefully it wont be too bad but I fear Mexico will not be the same 20 years down the road.
