It’s not a dialect or side-branch. It’s an entirely different language, closer to Italian or French than Spanish.
I’m a non-native speaker who lives in Barcelona - and even though my Castelliano is far from perfect, I’ve never got anything but niceness and appreciation.
So your story seems either totally made up, or missing some important details.
Oh boy, an Englishman who acts like Spain exists to serve them like a fucking resort. We’ve never seen that here - starting to see why you have trouble, “mate”.
Having lived in other countries, people in Barcelona are far more tolerant of people who don’t speak the language, especially compared to the Anglosphere. Where it seems most people don’t even speak one language properly, much less multiple.
Oh, do please keep downvoting away. The breeze is slight, and your characterisation of me is so hilariously offbase that it’s almost like an entertainment industry in itself, lol.
What is this? Beat your wannabe strawman day?
Lol, I’m not quite sure how to say that in Spanish, so… yeah. But please do GTFO with your complete bullshit prevarication upon what I already explained about my stepmom’s experience.
And here’s a bonus-- this is not an uncommon experience for women who experience Barcelona, genio grandisimo as you seem to style yourself.

They’re criticized about their Spanish?
Funny, my house is full of women, not all of whom are native speakers. We often have visitors from other countries, who don’t speak perfect Spanish. None of them have ever reported what you describe.
But from my brief interaction with you, if your stepmother is anything like you, I understand.
Maybe she should have learned Catalan instead of Castellano when visiting a Catalan region?
Oh sure! Spend years learning a major side-branch of the language, all so she could talk without language bias to the locals for two weeks…?
Idiot.

Please don’t make me laugh.
If Barcelona is so VERY HARD to live in for non-natives, then that would be one thing, right?
Women getting treated poorly in Europe and other parts of the world is unfortunately, real.
Got any more nuggets of bullshit in your sling, mate?

Nice to meet you, Idiot.
