We only had one "dark" skinned female NPC in pretty much the entire SHB storyline, and she wasn't even as dark as the viera in XII where Vii/Viera were inspired from (based on SE comments). Not only that, but they gave female viera the OK because scantily clad women with bunny ears (ahem, playboy bunny and such) but heaven forbid if men can be scantily clad with bunny ears.
    Beauty standards? I don't know about you, but fat viera wouldn't make any sense and their body right now makes total sense given the physical activity they do.

    It's like a girls not allowed to be pretty anymore.
