He told me that Peruvian Men tend to segregate themselves. In other words, they like whiter men than themselves, it's a common problem there.

Yes,  he is right .

What was your favorite cartoon growing up? GI Joe, 90s X-Men, and especially Saint Seiya (Knights of the Zodiac).
What was your neighborhood like growing up? We used to move a lot when I was a kid.
Did your school make learning fun? Oh yes, my school was great . All my friends are the guys I met there 22 years ago now . And the teachers are amazing. I go there every now and then (in fact I was there today and even the doorman and the cleaning lady remember me); besides I have lunch once a year with one of my high school teachers.
What was your favorite book as a kid? As a kid I would read mostly sci-fi books.
What was your summer break like? Sometimes boring, sometimes fun.
What was your favorite game at recess? None. I used to hide in the library and talk with the librarian, who was a good friend of my parents.

What was your favorite cartoon growing up?

Transformers.

What was your neighborhood like growing up?

Quiet, pretty normal. And lots of dangerous stuff to get up to (climbing onto the schools, getting into the silos at the farm equipment store up the road).

Did your school make learning fun?

They tried. Always hated when they did that because most of the time it was with the subjects that I actually wanted to learn. Instead of learning how to draw we did collages in art class, but I wanted to learn how to draw. Instead of learning how to program computers we were given games to play. Instead of learning how to write in English class, we got to do special projects (making posters, group discussions, watching videos). As a once in a while thing it wasn't bad for the others but it just bugged me. I saw it as a waste of time and would sometimes refuse to participate. Which usually got me in trouble, which is kind of ironic since I was getting into trouble for prefering to learn rather than have fun in class. (And yes, I'm aware I was getting into trouble for not listening, but my reasons for not listening were strange).

What was your favorite book as a kid?

Can't really pick one but these three I read a whole bunch; The Lemonade Trick, The Hobbit, and Prince Caspian.

What was your summer break like?

Boring. Mom wasn't about to deal with the three of us boys being in the house so we got kicked out a lot and told to go play. But all the other kids were allowed to stay home so it was usually just the three of us playing on the playground. With brief moments of excitement when we found something stupid and dangerous to do.

What was your favorite game at recess?

Tag, our school made this giant playset that had monkey bars and tires and slides, but the slides were too shallow to be fun, the tires were too tight together to move and the monkey bars were too close to the ground. So the design was wicked cool, but when they went to make it they had to make safety paramount so they scaled it down. We still found a way to make it dangerous, but no sliding, no swinging, so the only thing you could do with it was play a great game of tag (if you touched the ground you were it and the escapes from being cornered were suitably dangerous that escaping was a lot of fun).
