Are fresh mangos supposed to be squishy?

I am making a Strawberry and Mango Smoothie and the mango is well… squishy. I am wondering if it is safe to eat and how a mango should be eaten firmness-wise. URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It depends on just how squishy it is. Cut that sucker open if it is all mush inside throw it in the trash. The flesh should be semi-soft when it is ripe. If it is hard then put it in a paper bag for about 2-4 days until soft.

    A little. Here is a video showing how to pick a ripe one.
