Expressions Of Love In Mexican And American Culture

Love is a complicated subject, most people are aware of that. It is complicated because everyone shows their love not in one specific way, but in many different ways and with different actions. Some people can be more shy, others more confident and romantic. Sometimes, part of what makes you show your love for someone in a certain way is where you live and the culture and traditions of that place. In some cultures, people tend to be more reserved than in other cultures. Obviously, not all people in the same culture show their love in the exact same way, but the traditions makes everyone show it similarly.

Latin relationships are based on different rules

There´s Latin American culture for example, it has its very own traditions and customs. These customs hold mostly Catholic values tend to guide and orientate dating relationships. Some people have forgotten about these customs, specially in bigger cities.

First of all, the man always pursues the woman. A woman traditionally waits for the man to invite her to a party, a club or go on a date. That is when the woman decides if she likes the man or not. Chivalry is still very present when a man wants a woman. They are polite, pull out the chairs, open doors, be well-mannered altogether and usually –if not always- pay for dates.

Before or while a couple is dating, there are other things that men usually do. They always give the woman flowers, chocolates and even stuffed animals, anything that shows their affection for the woman. It is also very common to say “piropos” to the woman. Piropos are flirty comments in which the man calls a woman beautiful, my love or similar things.

Specially in Mexico and among younger people, having “quedante” or “galán” is commonly used. Having a quedante or galán is a previous step before having a boyfriend, you get to know each other better before you become a couple. When you have a quedante or galán it means that you are unofficially out of the market.

When couples start to date in Mexico, something they do is “checar”. Checar is when the man goes to the woman´s house in the late afternoon or evening just to check up on her. The woman always knows which days the man is going to come; everyday, five days a week, three days a week or even just once a week.

Courting a Mexican girl

One of the most known and loved traditions is bringing a woman serenata. A serenata is bringing a group of mariachi in front of the woman´s house at mdnight or very late at night to play and sing romantic songs. Nowadays, a lot of people call it gallo, which means rooster in english. Hiring a mariachi can sometimes be expensive, so young boys bring a girl pollo –chicken in spanish– but not literally chicken, it is a smaller version of bringing a girl gallo.

Traditionally, Latin American women tend to be conservative and wait for a serious relationship and sometimes until marriage to engage in physical relationships. A man can risk ending his relationship with a woman if he pressures her to have sex, this happens especially with younger couples.

Like every other culture, Latin American cultures are really unique ones. It shares some similarities with American culture, specially regarding weddings. The bridesmaids, the veil and the bouquet are some similar things that both cultures share.

Contrast of American dating

But American culture can be very different. Regarding a relationship itself, it is not as uncommon as in Mexico to see a girl pursuing a boy, splitting up the check and giving the first step generally. They also don´t have terms like quedante or galán, the first step is always boyfriend and girlfriend.

There really are not many traditions when people date in America. Obviously, they show their love in different and good ways, but there are not traditional or classic way to do it. There is of course chivalry present in relationships, I like to think that a well educated man is still something every women looks for no matter what part of the world she lives in.

Some things that are traditional in America are the weddings. For example, throwing rice after the wedding is a tradition. Throwing rice means that the guests wish the couple happiness and prosperity. Recently, rice has been replaced with birdseed and even blowing bubbles. Either way, the thought is the same no matter what is thrown at the couple.

Other traditional thing in America is having a rehearsal dinner. The rehearsal dinner is done very near to the wedding date. It is done specially because some members of the wedding party travel some distance to be at the wedding and so the bride and groom´s families know each other better.

The ring bearer is also a tradition in American weddings. The ring bearer is a young boy who is very special to the bride and groom. The boy carries a pillow with the wedding rings, and during the vows, he hands the pillow to the couple for them to exchange rings. It is also becoming common to have a girl be the ring bearer instead of a boy.

As you see, the fact that we express love in different ways doesn´t mean a love is greater than another. Love is love no matter how you express it. And probably, there are some Mexican girls who don´t like men to bring them serenata, or to have a quedante or galán.

Surely, there are plenty of women in America that still want to be pursued, and men who love the thrill of the chase. There probably also are couples in America that won´t throw rice after their wedding and won´t have a rehearsal dinner too.

Traditions are not obligatory, but they are things that people have close to their hearts. The most important thing is that no matter how, you are able to express to someone how much you love them.
