Brothers Strike and Kric, Brother SE, you are right on in this post, in my view. Esp. re: the communication issue. Bro. K-Ric, I don't know how much Spanish you have, but you should have no communication problems with any SG if you know a moderate amount of Spanish--I grant you that perhaps more of the AB and CC girls know at least some English than SGs (that's at least partially because of who they're most likely to be working with in those clubs), but that is no reflection on the inability of SGs to 'communicate' or on their lack of 'intelligence.' Don't want to jump the gun and accuse you, bro, of something I saw a lot on RS--that is, guys who knew no Spanish bitchin' about MEXICAN girls in a MEXICAN city not being able to speak English and/or being stupid because of this fact--but the tenor of what you say is right on what those guys say. I never have any problem communicating with SGs, and some of them that I know well will talk my ear off when I stop to say 'hi,' and I've known several who were the most inquisitive little things I've ever met, wanting to know everything, absorbing everything I said and retaining it long after I'd forgotten I said it, offering insights into Mexico and Mexican culture that have been very valuable to me. Anyway, I think it's clear that you have a strong negative opinion of this part of TJ life, and some others, like me, don't share your opinion. THAT'S COOL, bro--like altogringo or somebody once said, just means more of 'em for ME! Peace, bruthas!
