    Out of all the times I’ve spent around my family and other “Latin” people I’ve never heard this word until I saw it on Twitter

      its because it was created by english speaking americans who didnt like that latino was from a gender language, but also didnt bother to research the language so they went for the lazy option of adding an x, to me latine is a better word if you want a gender neutral latino
