Equality!

I know it sucks that PoC characters are underrepresented in fandom, let alone canon.

But if you put Maura Isles in Women's Murder Club, it would basically be an Angie Harmon harem anime.

I felt bad that Claire always got left out of the shipping for that show. Stupid producers making the only black character happily married. Such a damn cliche!

(And in response to your other post, I saw more of a Hilly/Elizabeth Dom/sub sort of thing, but I can see Skeeter getting down with Hilly)

Hilly was domming all those bitches, Skeeter was just an ex. She's like Quinn from Glee, or Regina George from Mean Girls, only with horrible racism in her heart.

Not that that ever stopped anyone from shipping Bellatrix Lestrange.

Fandom doesn't do a damn thing with black characters in ensemble casts anyway. Or to put it another way, being happily married wouldn't stop shippers under normal circumstanced (or being dead, or being canonically straight/gay, or related to the other person in the pairing, evil and hating the other person in the pairing, etc).

You say that--"an Angie Harmon harem anime"==like it's a bad thing.

Mmmm. Angie Harmon. And Sasha Alexander. And Daisy from Dead Like Me.

I say again: Mmmmmmm.
