I'm Mexican myself, I have traveled to Mexico a few times, and I have seen the people in the rural areas and the urban areas. A statistic from the Mexican government says that the majority of Mexicans are "mestizo" but this is not true. You see, Mexicans are not literally 50% White and 50% Native American, these 50/50 Mexicans are rare. Most Mexicans are indigenous leaning mestizos. Btw, white Mexicans are a minority in Mexico. Even Wikipedia says that native genes are more common than white European genes in Mexico. The Mexicans who say they are "mestizo" are actually Indian/indigenous passing and they think they have a large amount of white genes to cope with fact that they are actually indigenous. If you are Mexican and you have some white genes which amount to 10%, 20%, 30% or 40% of your ancestry, you are not white or white passing, you are indigenous. I'm Native American, and I'm proud of being brown.
