That is exactly right - it wasn't BSK's opinion, but an analysis of the special. And if you read Playboy on any kind of regular basis (I subscribe) you could draw the same conclusion. I would say that less than 10% of the models or Playmates that appear in the pages are non-white. If that's all you had to go on, you might think that ethnicity is incompatible with being sexy.

A quick look at Halle Barry, Kristen Kreuk (Chinese/Dutch), Sofia Vergara, Shakira, Beyonce, and others would dirsprove that notion in a second.

Main conclusion - don't rely on the media to reflect reality, it only reflects mainstream taste.
