That is all cute, but the maid stereotype is getting old. Also movies staged in Latin America only show slums and backward scenes, or jungle... never the modern, clean, metropolitan areas.  It's all about proportion, that's why stereotypes come to exist in the first place, if you lump latin america in a bag what percentage would you say is as you describe? modern, clean, metropolitan areas? what porcentage would be a slum backwardness or jungle?? be honest with yourself, you're not tricking anyone but yourself... there you have your answer...  If you are hispanic you get your pick of being portrayed as a salsa-listening drug dealer or as a maid or janitor.again, proportions, if you lump mestizo-americans (you're neither hispanic nor latin by the way) in a bag which porcentage would be salsa-listening, drug-dealer, maids or janitors?? would you bet your life that if you randomly put your hand inside the bag blindfolded you'll pick out the rock-listening, hardworking, engineer or architect?   Only Dwight and Michael are stupid, the rest of the whites are OK. But check for the janitors... guess their race. A Joke: Michael to Oscar, is there something I can call you besides Mexican? I do not want to be racist! What a reflection of reality, the word Mexican is considered a slur for Latin American.to be fair I have rarely watched the office, just enough to get the vibe of it, personally I find it silly, dull and tasteless, but hey! that's MY opinion... about the term Mexican being an umbrella for all mestizo-americans, again proportions... if you take ALL the mestizos in the U.S. put them in a bag, what proportion you thing are going to be Mexican? Don't you in your own country as well all across mestizo-america lump whites as either gringos or turcos or judíos or whatever is the majority of white looking minority in your country? is not as funny or cute when it's done to your people, isn't it? Well hey, if the shoe fits and you're good at being maids, then more power to you. If I remember on a show called Prisonbreak, Panama was portrayed as a beautiful tropical country with gorgeous beaches, fancy buildings and lush vegetation, so I don't know what you're complaining about. To be fair, I watched the series and they also showed the slums, the backwardness, the corruption, laziness and inefficiency and it was the set for the most brutal 3rd world prison hell hole you can imagine, not that's far from reality, actually taking into consideration the real mestizo-american prison system Sona was a walk in the park for Michael Scofield  As someone who has lived in a predominately Mexican neighborhood, I can't really blame them. They earned that slur fair and square, and I feel sorry for any Latin American who gets lumped in with them.they have indeed I never saw Prison Break, so if Panama was portrayed as modern, cool, that makes me happy. It is quite modern indeed.  Anyways, Latin Americans that cross the border, unfortunately are the bottom of the Latin American barrel. But you still have, in the US, your professionals (doctors, engineers, managers). We can agree on something the huge majority of non-white immigration to white countries are the lowest on the social chain, let's see it backwards now, do you think it was the same case for the majority of the white European immigration waves that mestizo-america received during the 60's 70's and 80's? was it for your country (Panama I assume)? can you honestly say that mestizo-america received the same quality of immigrants from Europe that you send out to Europe?   again what proportion the people you mention (doctors, engineers, etc) represents of the border crossers? both legal and illegal?    Since I am against illegal immigration I will not defend Mexican illegals. Even the most hardworking of them is doing something... well... illegal.again something we can agree on :D
