What the other poster said that if she is hispanic, then she is not white, which is a pretty stupid comment. Argentinos are diverse. A good number of them are as european as north americans, except they are generally fitter.

My husband is from Colombia and his uncle is from Argentina. Anyway, they are also mixed with native indian blood before the Spaniards settled in South Armerica. That is if your ancestors were there from the beginning. Some Europeans emigrated to Argentina who never mixed with the Indians or Spaniards. It is a very diverse culture.

That is the most stupid comment (unfortunately very repetive) that we hear.
I'm from Uruguay who is a country next to Argentina.
The Spanic are people that came from Hispania aka Spain, Portugal, and maybe a portion of France. My inheritance is 3/4 Spanish and 1/4 italian. From that 3/4, a third is vasque and the rest is Castillian from the Colony Period.
The truly hispanic are European or the descendents of the Europeans. The other are spanish talking, in some countries like Mexico or Puerto Rico, the mixture is more indian than Spanish and we called meztisos. In other part like Cuba is more like a mixture of Spanish and africans, and we called mulatos. The mulatos, meztisos, and zambos (mixture of Indian and Africans) are the people that in the States are associated with Hispanos, but there are hisponos for the language and the surname, not always for the blood.
I'm from Uruguay who is a country next to Argentina. And the true thing is that the only thing in common with the Mexican, Puerto Rico's and centroamerica is the language.
The Italian inmigration at the begginig of the XX Century was very important to these region, maybe more important than in the USA. Also there was an important inmigration to the region of French and English people. Olivia Hussey has Italian and Enlgish roots.
And for the people that visit Argentina or Uruguay, almost a third of the population are blue eyes with blond brown. In fact when they were young were blonds but with the time, maybe because the weather conditions, become darker with the time. -

I'm going to randomly place a comment among these unbelievably race obsessed threads: She's a member of one race - the human race. There DOES NOT EXIST, ON THE HUMAN PLANET, MORE THAN ONE RACE. Any species that can pro create within their own species is of the same race of that species. WE have all become confused and obsessed about "race" and color in this last century because of many, very unfortunate, relatively recent, tragic factors in recent, human history. But much of what has been written among these boards about race and color are either extremely superficially trivial and unimportant or just plain wrong or both (for further information see information regarding mitochondrial DNA tests etc). Race is a social construct. This is not specifically directed toward "hugoboiso-1," nor any one in particular.
Mrs. Olivia Hussey, by the way, happens to have listed her own "ETHNICITY" as Latino/Hispanic on her official website (see also her official myspace page). Beautiful women, as we know, come from all, various ethnicities. -

"not part of whitey".Wow. You are really enlightened. Whenever I encounter thinking like this I remember a documentary I saw years ago about a tiny fishing village on the south coast of England. Most of the village is set on a hillside that is divided by a path that runs down to the beach. The people who live above the path do not like the people who live below the path. The people who live below the path do not like those who live above the path. Of course, both of these groups hate the people who live on the beach at the bottom of the hill. Hooray for hate.
