fuego header.jpg What you see is the header of a story in the men’s magazine Fuego. The article asks:

Latinos have come a long way with the movies roles they’re offered. Why haven’t Latinas?

The article continues to ask why Latinas continue to be portrayed in such sexist, misogynistic, and racist roles like stripper or maid. Does anyone else think it odd that this question is coming from a revista with a half naked Ana Carolina on the cover with the headline:

Bottoms Up! Ana Carolina Tops You Off

Just Checking.
