This is a perfect example of ignorance leading to being offended.

Latina specifically means those of the feminine persuasion. Latino would be the all encompassing term or the term for those of the masculine persuasion.

Ok, I am neither ignorant nor offended. I was being sarcastic.

Anyway, maybe my fault for not including the /s at the end of my post, but I really thought the tone was good enough, sorry internet strangers

Also, I upvoted the comment I was making fun of, thought it was clear, but still, soz guys

Rereading your comment in a heavily sarcastic tone, I can see what you were going for, but I am also unsurprised at it being misinterpreted. Sarcastic jokes are hard when there are people who say that kind of thing unironically

That certainly wasn't sarcastic.
