Girl WAYYYY to white to play his daughter.


Yes, i know she was born in Mexico, but Mexican isn't a race, she's white. George is more Amerindian or perhaps mestizo with strong Amerindian blood. H's very dark and even with a blonde German wife wouldn't produce such a light daughter. When will people realize that Hispanics come in different colors and shades? It's like a Dutch movie depicting an American family with a black father Asian mother and white biological daughter, and when people say it's stupid the Dutch say "well they're all American.

1) Mexican is a race, cause i'm one
and
2) Look at the picites of her mother when George is looking through their family album (It sort of looks like George real wife too...)

Just cause she's lighter than him don't mean anything. Her mom in the movie was light skinned.


My mom is darker that me and that don't mean anything. My dad was lightskinned though. So it just depends how's genes you have...

"Mexican is a race, cause i'm one"

Oh, well that settles everything, you're one so it MUST be true. No you DUMMY! Mexican is NOT a race. It's a nationality, a culture, an ethnicity perhaps, but NOT a race. You can NOT go to a doctor and have blood work and have th doctor say you have mexican blood. Your DNA doesn't say you were born in Mexico, nor would it say our parents were born in Mexico. Mexican is no more a race than American is a race, or French is a race you moron.


"Look at the picites of her mother when George is looking through their family album (It sort of looks like George real wife too...)"

I wish I could, but I don't watch stupid movies. I haven't seen it, nor will I, and a light skinned mother wouldn't make her that light. She would have a darker complexion because GL is VERY dark.

Chivas is stupid. I like Puebla. But not really because Mexico is stupid.

I think you have a very ignorant and racist comment. The mother in the picture is light so the daughter could definately turn out light. That is the way it is in my Latino family some are lighter some are darker but we all love each other. Most Latino familes are like that.

The actress Daniela Bobadilla was born in Mexico and her parents emigrated to Canada when was six or seven. I think she ws wonderful in the movie and looked like the mom in the pictures. Lighten up .... it's a kids movie!!!!

"I think you have a very ignorant and racist comment."

Please tell me what is ignorant and what is racist about ANYTHING I said in my OP! Please, I beg of you show me, quote me. I said nothing hateful or "ignorant". Do you even know what racist and ignorant mean? Racist means you feel your race is superior to others, how was my comment saying that my race is superior? How was it saying anything racist at all? I simply said that it is genetically improbable for a man with such a dark complexion to have a daughter with such a light complexion. There must have been a cuerno there somewhere.

Ignorant? Do you know what that means? No, you don't, it's just a word you idiots throw around to put people down when you disagree with them. Ignorant is when you lack knowledge due to the fact that you have not been privy to the information required, if you have been privy and still don't know, the correct word is "STUPID" and since I have educated you on these definitions you now have said knowledge if you still don't get it I can say that you are stupid and I would be right.

"That is the way it is in my Latino family some are lighter some are darker but we all love each other. Most Latino familes are like that."

That could be for many different reasons, intermarrying within the family with other races, different parents among siblings, etc. In fact if the mother was lighter his daughter would be white, but no matter how light she was the child would probably be darker in complexion than this actress.
I also didn't say anything about people not loving each other if they are of different skin colors, nor do I care if your stupid family loves each other, what does that have to do with anything?

"I think she ws wonderful in the movie and looked like the mom in the pictures. Lighten up .... it's a kids movie!!!!"

You liked this movie, enough said, you loser. And yes, it's a kid's movie (not kids, you need an apostrophe dummy kids is plural kid's is possessive) so you should lighten up. Now go love on your Chinese Mexican kids.

You are a very strange and angry person! But let's get down to the real deal which is genetics. If you know anything about it you would know that when two people have a child there is a 25% chance the child will look like the mother, 25% like the father, and 50% chance of a mixture of both. That is why so many "mixed race/color" families have such a wide range of skin color.

So why don't you educate yourself and stop making STUPID REMARKS!!!!!

reply

P.S. For someone who has that Jesus thing at the end of all his posts you certainly aren't very nice!!!

What would Jesus do!!!! I also just saw that you didn't even watch this movie!!!!! Why comment on something you didn't even see!!!!!!

I would need a source for this claim. Please provide me with a serious scientific source that claims that there are these neat 25 25 50 chances of anything. Also even if it is true, (you've provided nothing but your stupid word to support this) it STILL supports MY POST! I said it was improbably to have such a white daughter not impossible. 25% out of a possible hundred where the alternatives are looking like GL and looking like a miss, I would say that's low making it improbable. You DUMMY!

"So why don't you educate yourself and stop making STUPID REMARKS!!!!!"

Why don't you get to scaring up some sources instead of wasting both our time making dumb claims you heard from your mother or grandmother out in the Mexican bush.

So you agree ... it is possible so your entire post is ridiculous!!!!! 25% is 1 out of 4 , not that bad of odds actually. It is not improbable ... it would be possible 1 out of every 4 times.

Go to any high school level biology book and it should be in it. This is very basic genetics. I had it in AP Biology in high school. They usually explain it with eye color. So if got that far with your education look it up. If not I'm sure you can find it on the net.

"So you agree"

Read to me where I said I agree with your stupid made up number. PLEASE! Quote me.

"it is possible so your entire post is ridiculous!!!!!"

It's also possible that I could step into another demension when i walk to the bathroom (look up theoretical physics) but it would be stupid to think that I will.

" It is not improbable ... it would be possible 1 out of every 4 times."

Improbable and impossible are two different things, you dummy. Like stupid and ignorant.

No, you made a claim and I want you to support it with a source. I don't want to go to a high school to look it up, you said something you pulled a number out of your a$$ and now you want me to thumb through text books.

Eye color is very different from skin color now isn't it? Are you stupid or just pretending? Very white people have brown eyes and have kids with brown eyes. People of all races can have brown eyes. And even with eye color you do not have the 25 25 50 break down. Not only that but grandparents play a HUGE role in eye color. Let's use this example for argument's sake. Let's say all things being perfect you had a Brown blue and brown blue set of grand parents, and the couple was one brown one blue, if you calculated this you would get a probability of blue:37.5 brown:50% and green 12.5. Let's call green the "mixed" eye color you still don't have your 25 25 50.

Source you ask?

Play with that calculator.

Conclusion, you're not very bright.

Bottom, bottom line.

It is possible!!!!!!!

You can say whatever you want, you can call me whatever you want, but the bottom line is that it is possible for a woman with light skin and a man with dark skin to have a light skinned child. It is possible.
Even if the odds were one in a million: it is possible!

It is possible!!!!!!!

yes, possible and silly since it is improbable, thanks for saying in so many words that you lost the argument.

First of all, why are you even bothering with this if you won't sit down and watch the flick?

Secondly, the pigment of your skin doesn't always have something to do with what color your parents are. If you follow the blood line of one side of the family more so than the other, that can make a difference as well. It's kind of like two brunette parents giving birth to a child that ultimately has blond hair. How is that possible if neither parents are blond? Possibly because an ancestor on one, if not both, sides of the family had blond hair. Some children take after one parent and only one parent. Think about the two sets of twins that were born to a white mother and black father. This couple had two sets of twins, obviously years apart. Each set contained one white child and one black child. They were not evenly mixed, they were two completely different colors. This showed that one child strongly resembles its mother and the other its father.

In my family, both of my parents are white. However, one is of strong Italian decent and the other German. My parents had 4 kids, two boys, two girls. One girl and one boy look nothing like dad, one boy and one girl look nothing like mom. I have absolutely no characteristics of my dad. My older brother is the same. I don't even resemble two of my siblings. A lot of people think my sister and I are step sisters or not related at all. Fact is, we're full blooded sisters. We share the same parents. My sister is blond with a very light skin tone. I am a brunette with a much darker skin tone. However, I take after neither of my parents in a few different characteristics. I don't have either of their eye color, I don't have either of their hair color. Neither of them have curly hair and I don't share the same blood type as either of them. Since I strongly resemble my mother, we look almost exactly alike aside from eye and hair color, I know that I am biologically her daughter.

Idiot. Do you live under a rock? Genes are a toss up; you never know what you are going to get, especially with mixed families.

reply

hey STUPID what have we been talking about here? Just that, you fool. The probability of his having a daughter that white is unlikely. Not to mention I've looked for his real wife's pics and she's not that light skinned. She has what could be considered "white skin" but she's not extremely light and she has dark Mediterranean features. The product of that relationship would not be a white child. The bottom line, and the reason for this post is that there is a high level of self hatred and a desire to have white faces in Hispanic shows. People are always pulling out white children, white relatives and saying LOOK WHAT I HAVE I have me some white blood. GL is a self loather.

Gee did ya ever think they cast the best latina actress for the role?!!!! And since it is possible for him to have a daughter that color with how "white" his wife is then it wasn't a problem. And yes that was George Lopez's real wife in the pictures and she is Cuban and VERY light skinned like the girl in the movie.
You read way too much into this stuff. If you look at the special features of the DVD George's wife who produced the movie talks about how this girl was such a find and so talented. Just because YOU say she couldn't be his daughter doesn't make that the truth.

What if the best Latina actress would have been a black Dominican girl? Would it have been OK then?

Trompos doesn't realize that he lost this arguement!!!!

Considering George's very Amerindian looks (don't know the amount of his european blood, if any) it is very very unlikely that it could be his daughter, but it is still possible.


http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-377839/Black-white-twins.html

So if you consider the million-to-one odds it is possible. It is IMPROBABLE and UNREALISTIC, but possible.

Then again this is television and there have been plenty of movies where people happen to win the jackpot, which is also incredibly unlikely, yet possible.

Although considering George's Amerindian blood, his dominant Amerindian looks, his wife and his constant hyping of a foreign European Spanish Latino language and culture it could lead you to believe that he is in fact a bit self-loathing and is in denial about his roots.

it is possible to have parents that are darker/lighter than their kids. I'm a light skined Mexican American and my mom is darker than me. My Dad though was light skinned like me and my bro looks like my mom, even down to the skin color....

It's fiction, and it's also a comedy, so even if George Lopez couldn't have a daughter who looked like Daniela Bobadilla (which I don't agree with, but let's assume that's true in the actual world), a fiction, and especially a comedy, doesn't need to show things that are accurate per the actual world.

People frequently complain about realism in comedies, but if they were to instead cast a girl who definitely looked like she could be Lopez' daughter, what exactly would be funny about that? Humor often obtains by things not matching what we beleve to be true of the actual world, and far more rarely obtains when things do match. Also, fiction is defined by having elements that do not match the actual world (after all, if every element did match the actual world, it would no longer be fiction but a documentary).

That's hilarious, because she's a really good friend of mine and both her parents are Spanish. Although I do agree, she is a little too fair skinned to play his daughter, she's not white at all.

Hispanic is not a race. There are white hispanics, black hispanics, native americans, mestizos, castizos, etc. George looks mostly native in his features, it is not just about complexion. The girl looks more spaniard. It would be incredibly rare for a girl like her to be his daughter.
