I Need Advice

I need advice, mainly from the parents of similar worlds. So I'm seeing someone, but he's 5 years older than me, my parents hate him but they haven't even met him.. He works, well, [i]worked[/i] with me, until he walked out after chef called him out on something he didn't do. I'll stay the night at his place sometimes, and he'll sneak in to my place to spend the night, and we both have mutual feelings for one another. My mom totally hates him because he's of the mexican culture and what you'd call a cholo. He used to be in a gang when he was younger, but has obviously changed since then. He's 25 now, and did that stuff ten years ago. My dad has been saying shit like "oh, youre gonna get prego, get an std, lalalala. Guys just want to get in your pants I'll kick you out if you go behind my back to see him" BUT WE'RE NOT EVEN DOING THE DIRTIES. My lovely and I agreed if I were to ever get kicked out, I can come stay with him, as long as I do chores around the house and whatnot to earn my keep. Idk, what should I do about this situation?

If you are an adult already you can do as you please. Keep in mind though that parents are normally concerned about the well being of their children.
So, worrying about his past as a gang member I can understand.

However, hating him because he is of Mexican descent is simply ignorant and stupid.

You'll have to choose your battles.
