"Quince dresses look better on-"

[Soggy_Bread]

NO. Quince dresses only look good on Mexicans.

I’m tired on seeing Pinterest and TikTok say “Quince dresses look better on Americans” or “Quince dresses look better on Chinese girls.”

Like no, you’re not supposed to have quinces if it’s not your culture. And that’s that, Americans have Sweet Sixteens, I know Chinese have the Ji Li ceremony (I think). You have your own traditions, use them. Quinces are for Mexicans (As long as you have at least some Mexican blood in you, you’re good, you don’t have to come from 2 long Mexican lines or anything, just one Mexican parent is okay. You don’t have to be TAMALES FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH, AND DINNER Mexican).

Please respect our culture and we’ll respect yours.

@Enzi @Winnie_the_Bitchless I think you guys are missing the point of the post…

@Miss_Americana Yeaaah I probably am💅

[finn.in.outer.space.]

i think the point of this post is that not all parts of cultures should be shared and some things should stay to certain cultures. thats how i feel about the water dance by tyla, my family is partially south-african and i personally don’t like seeing people butcher the dance in such a manner. it is okay to appreciate a culture, i like cultural appreciation but do not appropriate a culture.

for me personally, my friend Maria invited me to her quince and i was scared to go in the first place because i didn’t want to appropriate or anything but her family was so cool and i had a good time.

this is just my opinion though lmao

Mine exactly as well. Certain things should stay in the culture they came from.

And here’s my personal take on this subject:

Anyone should be able to participate in a culture as long as they’re not intentionally disrespecting it. Having the proper research and knowing what you’re doing is pretty much key in stuff like that, and asking questions and having guidance in events and clothing and foods is also essential. Misinterpretations happen sometimes, and it may appear that someone is disrespecting a culture- the best way to prevent that is to just ask for assistance on a culture from someone who knows that specific culture well, or research it. Other than that, I don’t really see an issue with reaching out and seeing what’s more to life than your current culture.

@Miss_Americana Sequence dresses look better on nobody. Race doesnt make a dress look any more flattering or any less like fish skin lol

@Miss_Americana i agree its easy math
quince=mexican

[Soggy_Bread]

@Duchess No no I dont mean they literally look better on Mexicans. Quince means Quincenera which is a Mexican tradition. Non-Mexicans have recently been having Quinces and posting things like “Quince dress look better on ____.” Which is a dis at Mexicans, basically saying Quinces are better for them and not us. This was just me saying That I don’t think non-Mexicans should be having Quinces nor should they be saying things like that.

Sorry for the confusion

Yeah, that’s what I was commenting about.

Also, i think the only confusing part is that you said “quince” and I thought you meant sequence.
