Cultural affinity without stereotypes
Be interested in a person without attributing a role to them.
Ask without assuming
The Latin word brings together very different experiences and does not indicate a single language, a nationality or a way of relating. Ask how the other person identifies themselves and what they want to share. Don't ask him to confirm ideas about temperament, family, or sexuality. Cultural interest can be expressed without reducing anyone to a cliché.
Listen to different experiences
Two people can experience a tradition in different ways or not identify with it. Listen to nuances without correcting a personal experience with generalizations. Talking about food, music or celebrations can open a conversation, but it does not require explaining one's own culture. There is also room for interests that are not related to the origin.
Recognize real compatibility
Compatibility is discovered in values, expectations and ways of treating each other. It cannot be deduced from a photo or a country. You can be grateful for a difference without making it a relationship requirement. If what you are looking for does not match, closing the conversation respectfully is also a good decision.
