@Ava: I get it. My issue in hollywood won't even be as bad as you experience, but because I'm a fat white woman, I could never be a leading lady. It's change a little, but still Rebel Wilson and actresses' like her are the joke roles in movies.
Like I don't get it, why does skin color matter for roles? Like I know it's because racisms, but it's so dumb. One of the best musicals I saw when I was 18, was the Little Mermaid and you know King Triton they cased a black man to play the role, and the daugthers were a mixed of skin tones, and they were all amazing. Because their skin tones didn't keep them from performing the role.
