Wtf does her skin colour have to do with anything?  In society there's a yardstick of femininity: slender, with long hair and fair skin. Up to recently (as in, before Scandal and How To Get Away With Murder),  you never really saw dark skinned women (like Viola Davis) as being sexual beings, more like the black best friend to the white woman who's getting hers. So yeah, I can understand where the actress is coming from complexion wise but uh... the size of her though. I look at her and feel ill.
