Cuban content creator Katiusha La Rosa has sparked controversy on TikTok after posting a video in which she lists several things that, according to her, she cannot stand about Cubans, even though she is Cuban herself. The clip has generated numerous reactions and comments, both in support and in criticism.
"Things I can't stand about Cubans, being Cuban myself. If you like gossip, stay until the end," she says at the beginning of the video before starting her list.
First of all, he mentions the habit of showing up at other people's homes unannounced. In his opinion, this practice, which is very common in Cuba, is inappropriate in other contexts, especially when living outside the Island.
He also criticized the excessive confidence of some parents when visiting a home with their children, stating that sometimes children take objects without permission.
Another point he questioned was the insistence of some people to repeatedly call when they do not receive an immediate response. He noted that if someone does not answer the phone, the correct approach is to leave a message and wait.
In that same vein, he expressed his annoyance at those who speak on speakerphone in public places like supermarkets, restaurants, or hospitals, exposing private conversations without considering others.
The young woman also criticized the way some men dress, specifically those who wear their pants too low, as well as the habit of staying outdoors in minimal clothing, which she considers inappropriate.
Finally, he referred to those who play music at high volume without considering their neighbors, a practice that, he said, is particularly bothersome to him.
The video has divided opinions on social media. Some users agreed with its points and suggested that certain behaviors should change, especially when living in other countries with different norms of coexistence. Others defended it as expressions unique to Cuban culture and downplayed its criticisms.
