The prejudice toward Eastern European women
I'm at season 5 and this is already the second time I hear these latinas saying disgusting things to Eastern European women. First it was Adriana with Joanna, then Alexia towards Julia with her prostitute comment. Coming from a latina it's rich. I am Eastern European and I'm a journalist who happens to have worked on prostitution a lot, and believe me there are A LOT of latinas in prostitution all over the world, maybe more than all Eastern Europeans. Moreover, latinas are much less emancipated, and that is due to the fact that the socialist regimes post WW2 helped the liberation of women in Eastern Europe by integrating them massively in the labour market, increasing literacy to 90%, reforming marriage and abortion laws, putting women in universities. Still now, despite 30+ years of capitalist governments who have tried to reverse all these trends, women still make up a majority in STEM studies in most Eastern European countries. Women in Latin America are nowhere near as liberated and emancipated, except in communist Cuba (which these ladies despise). Yes, the last 30+ years have been terrible on all, and especially women in Eastern Europe, and many have unfortunately been pushed into prostitution, and no it's not a choice. But to parade these stereotypes constantly on this show absolutely disgusts me to my very core.
