Answer: In the story "The Myth of the Latin Woman" there are several stereotypes described about women of Latin descent. The writer, Judith Ortiz Cofer, describes some situations that a woman goes through in her life and how she is being stereotyped in the Anglo-American culture.
The different kinds of Latina women in the story are; housemaids, domestic staff, women who are "sexually expressive," that the women are all singers and people start singing songs like La Bamba when they are around, the woman in the story is called "Evita" at a bar only because she is a Latino.
