It is fact that the American culture is one of the most influential now-a-days, and everybody around the world pretends to imitate its characteristics. However, I believe that there is a worldwide phenomenon going on right now: people in the world want to adopt the Latin culture. Among the most popular things it is possible to include the music and dancing (salsa, reggaeton) and the clothing (more especifically the colors: vibrant and colorful).
Also, the Latin culture has managed to enter in every corner of the wolrd, due to its representatives' easy way to communicate with everybody and exiting feeling that they reflect.
However, in my opinion, there is a lack of real knowledge of our culture. This, I believe, is thanks to the false image that most of the people have of our culture. People in Europe, North America and Asia think that the Latins are lazy,noisy and that women are easy girls; this is because most of the Latin people who emigrate to those countries are people who were in a non stable economic position and were forced to leave their country because of that. Therefore, they are not very educated, and they are just a minority.
Given the previous, I wish to express that not all the latins are the same, and not all of us behave the same promiscuous, lazy and noisy way. In Latin America, there is a lot of people educated and willing to reach a goal in their lifes.
Finally, I want to clarify that I'm not trying to offend anybody, I just pretend to make people from other countries to realize that just because one person behaves in a certain way, means that all the people from that country will be the same. And this also applies to the rest of the cultures.
