I would have to say Mexican men from Mexico are more hardcore in their ways, their roots, their traditions. They’re more like, “No, the woman is supposed to be home washing dishes, cooking this and that.”  Whatever.  And Mexican-American men, I think are more Americanized, more like, “Okay, yeah, you can have a job too. You can work.  You can drop the kids off in daycare.” And the Mexican would be like, “No, you’re the one who’s doing all that.” So the American you can have more help and it’s okay.  I mean, that’s the difference. It’s just a little bit more open to having a little bit more freedom.

Music in general, especially in Spanish, is mostly dominated by the male, especially because it’s easier for companies deal with men. They don’t have to worry about wardrobe and makeup and hair.  Guys, they can pretty much take care of themselves. As far as like musically, guys are more inclined to want to learn how to play instruments and learn all the instruments and make bands. I mean, women do too, but you rarely see a female band or females musicians. There are some. It’s just more male dominant than women. We’re changing it slowly.
