Only if Anglos consider you part of their brethen, which is the thing that it all comes down to.

Then that depends on what even constitutes an Anglo.

Yes, from my point of view, that is. One label doesn't need to exclude others.

Portuguese people do not consider us Lusitanic, nor do many of us Brazilians identify with such a label.

That's a shame, I guess.

To you. I don't see why it's a shame to not want to adopt Eurocentrism.

No, that's YOUR point of view. Any social scientist worth his/her dime will tell you this.

And the same goes for you. You need to take into account that different people are bound to have different takes on things.

Portuguese-Europeans are Latins. :-)

Yes, they are... I don't know why you replied to my post with that, since it doesn't have anything do with what I said.
