You have heard of the term "gringo / gringa", and maybe others. In Veracruz the term used to refer to someone white is "güero / güera". When you walk down the street and pass by a man or group of men of whatever age, you will either be tossed some kind of comment with that term, or hissed at. They have this "ssSSSSSST" hiss, that they make, because they want you to turn so they can see your face. I found these things to be typical to Veracruz. It's annoying, but it's how it is and you get used to it even so. In a nutshell, you're more than likely to hear something out of the mouth of Veracruz men when you pass by, than not.
