We all know the reboot of The Powerpuff Girls sux.
The interesting humor, great villains, & the almost Rocky & Bullwinkle appeal to adults....it's all gone.
But channel surfing, I happened upon it, & noticed something odd....
The elementary school teacher, Miss Keane, no longer has tits.
And the Mayor's buxom brain trust, Sara Bellam has been completely written out.
(Note that Miss Bellam's hyper-reubenesque body was a parody.)
The women have haven't been just desexualized, they've been desexed....body parts eliminated.
I don't know how widespread this phenomenon is in other toons,
but is this an elimination of normal sexual characteristics?
Is it out of prudery or some perverse political correctness?
Betty Boop would never make it today.
You might wonder....
Who cares about such worthless crap?
I do!
