Last week I spent my long awaited for Spring Break with my best friends in Mexico. It was clear of SMU folk (kind of) and full of relaxation and fruity drinks. HOWEVER, can I just give a little word from the wise : PLEASE, if you are a local, do not yell degrading things in spanish or ask if we are Barbie's sister. It won't get you anywhere nor will you get any gratitude from me. It is just plain rude and degrading. I found myself walking with my head down as I would walk through the market each day. They really have no shame. They would stare, whistle, sometimes even grab. I hope their mamas didn't teach them those manners. If I was a Mexican woman, would I find that attractive in a mate? I would hope not. I would be embarrassed if any guy I knew acted like that to complete strangers. It is very uncomfortable and I would just like to say, (for all of my readers in Mexico ;) ) STOP. Thank you for your time, but ew and NO!
