Both sides of my family came from the mayflower, or so I'm told. Straight American/Colonist/British yo.

I see nothing but 100% caucasian in me. Umm, white power.

I'm a Texan. Legend has it that my Dad's people have been Texans since there was a Texas, but I don't know what to make of that.

Pros: Our food is incredible. Our women are incredible. People tend to be pretty friendly and gregarious. Lots of wild, lonely open spaces. Great place to be if you're into sports. Citizenship carries an indefinable air of badassery.
Entertaining history.

Cons: Probably the most fascist state in the Union. Obesity out of control. Schools are pretty terrible (though universities are pretty good.) People rag our big cities constantly, and admittedly there's not much to do in terms of 'high' culture. We gave the nation Tom DeLay (but NOT Bush, that [censored] carpetbagger.) Most would not enjoy our climate. Those of you with allergies are in for a treat.

I like San Antonio, but I always wonder how a city with such extreme heat and humidity can also sport such a large number of gross fatties. They must simmer in their own gravy 9 months a year.

Air conditioned Expeditions, m'man. Add that to a gallon-sized thermos fulla soda, kept that way 'round the clock, and you've got yourself some serious poundage.

Geez im the first Mexican thats depressing. The lawns dont cut themselves people theres more than 1 mexican. Im 100% mexican.

Good: Food is the best on the planet, women are hot, we can apparently do any form of labor more efficiently than anyone else.

Bad: All are hardcore catholics, therefore our beliefs are like 150 years behind the times. Having 6 kids aint good now a days, but we will never get it. All mexicans I know drink(except myself), this is a stereotype that is mostly associated with Irish people, but the reality is Mexicans drink much more. They just wait till after work to get wasted and im talking cant walk wasted.

Also I dont consider myself mexican, more like American as I live here and probably know how to write better in English than Spanish. When it comes to speaking the language I speak spanish very well, it matches my english, just my spanish grammar is probably terrible.

I think my answer will be original enough to be worth posting.

Im chilean.
Good: We have lots of villainy and slyness, our women are the most attractive, our women are the bravest( many of them have to raise kids on their own, they do with a lot of effort,we men really are a bunch of pussies) and we know how to have fun without having material stuff.
Bad: We are not assertive enough, we are mediocre, we care way too much about other ppl lives and we want to be way too much like higher social classes.
