"\n\tAdvertisement - Continue Reading Below\n\t\n\n\n\nSofia Vergara doesn't only make the hombres drool\u2014let's be honest. Although I adore this Colombian bombshell, she's come across a lot of criticism about how she represents Latinas: that super caliente, overly sexy chica. It's not her fault, it's just that sometimes we (OK, myself to be exact) feel like we have to live up to this hot ass Latina stereotype and all have really strong, sexy accents. Burn. But what struck me by surprise was this: Sofia says she loves being portrayed this way, because us Latinas, well, that's just \"how we are.\" Vergara told The Daily Express that she loves her role on screen and it comes natural to her, since it mimics the person she is in real life. \"It's fantastic. I don't have to do any research like, 'How am I gonna play her?' No! I just learn my lines and that's it.\" The 40-year-old hot mami says it's true that Latinas are portrayed a certain way all over Hollywood, but it doesn't make a difference, because that's how we all really do act. \"We  don't see it as a bad thing that the world sees us like that because it's how we are,\" she added. She also claims doctors and dentists in Colombia are just as sexy as she is. I need to meet these medical professionals. I swear I'd never miss a dentist appointment again if my dentist was as hot as Sofia. I love Sophie\u2014let me just make that clear before I go on with my rant. What upsets me about this comment is that it is seriously untrue. I'm a Latina (Brazilian to be exact) who comes from a culture where we are all portrayed as promiscuous with big booties and bronze skin and we have to associated with dangerously gorge women like Alessandra Ambrosio or Adriana Lima. I happen to be pretty fair skinned with straight hair and a butt that won't exactly be comparable to JLo's or Kim K's. I find it offensive that Sofia thinks we all act the way she does on screen. I never act sexy. Sexy is pretty damn awkward for me, to be honest. Sofia, you are undoubtedly hot as hell and maybe your roles come naturally to you because you're a perfect 10, but I wouldn't say all Latinas act that way. We are more than our looks and \"curves.\"  I'm upset that you grouped us into the one category the rest of the world throws us into. I know so many other Latinas and not one of them is anything compared to Gloria in Modern Family. Your accomplishments make me proud, but I only wish you would have said something better to represent Latinas, like how we are the fastest growing business owners\u2014anything but the obvious assumption the whole universe makes. I wish your statement was true in some ways, though. Because I'd be pretty freaking satisfied with being as sexy as you are!Want more from Ariel?
