Ask Sujeiry: Why Are Latinas So Bitchy in Relationships?
A man asks for relationship advice and wonders why Latinas are bitches. What does Sujeiry, love guru and expert, have to say about his generalization?
Dear Sujeiry,
I’ve dated Latinas all my life. I am also Latino. I haven’t had the best experience. They are controlling, domineering, and bitchy.
I don’t mean to generalize but it is a quality that I have found in all the Latinas that I have dated, including my ex-wife. Why are Latinas so bitchy in relationships? Please enlighten me.
Sincerely,
Stuck on Bitch

Dear Stuck on Bitch,
I’m not going to yell at you for calling me (I’m Latina, helllooo!), my family members and most of my girlfriends bitchy (or bitches.) Instead, I am going to help you.
Do you know what I tell women who email me for relationship advice and ask why men are dogs? I tell them they are choosing these “dogs.” So, the same goes for you; you are choosing women who are bitchy.

I have a friend who is also Latino and shares your experience. He’s dated women of different backgrounds but they have all treated him terribly, including two ex-wives. They are domineering, controlling, mean. He always falls for the same type of woman.
So, you see, this isn’t a cultural thing, love. This is a you thing. I will tell you what I told my friend, and many other women who generalize men: the common denominator is you.
Evaluate why you gravitate toward bitchy women and then make a different choice.
Love strongly and wisely,
Sujeiry
