" \n Honduran Liesbeth Ramirez, 25, never imagined her husband would be Latino. Though her father was hardly macho, her mother warned her that other Latino men were. Believing her, Ramirez sought love with non-Latino men but found the relationships lacked emotional and cultural connection. Many of the guys she dated didn&amp;#039;t understand her parents&amp;#039; strict rules: a curfew and a need for him to &amp;quot;show his face&amp;quot; so they could meet him. Her friends suggested she date Alex, a man with Salvadoran roots. What she found was a young man who was modern and traditional. He stood up and pulled out her chair at a restaurant on their first date. &amp;quot;I noticed that right away,&amp;quot; Ramirez says. More importantly, he understood the family rules and curfew. They bonded over their &amp;quot;crazy Hispanic parents.&amp;quot; Even when she decided to move from New Orleans to New York in search of better career opportunities, Alex was supportive. It&amp;#039;s no surprise Ramirez said yes when Alex proposed to her last year. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
