Why were cartoons made for KIDS in the 1980s and 1990s so filled with sexual content? It's not like anyone who had hit puberty was watching He-Man and jacking off to all those ass shots of Teela.
Why were cartoons made for KIDS in the 1980s and 1990s so filled with sexual content...
speak for yourself
>sexual content
You're from the Bible Belt, aren't you?
Sex sells. Always has and most likely always will at this rate
I was fapping since kindergarten.
Go to bed Americlap
It was, the '80s, this wasn't considered sexual back then. Most people weren't such prudes about girls showing their legs or wearing bikini style outfits, or guys having their shirts off for that matter.
god i wish i was teela
Honestly at the rate we're going, I wouldn't be surprised if we all end up in burqas by the 2030s
I actually watched He-Man because I found him attractive
Because there's nothing sexual about at all, you literal faggot.
He's 100% guaranteed either a sjw or a muslim (save difference). Middle America are the ones that remember these cartoons fondly and have no problem with them. Stop falling for the left's "muh big bad republican" boogeyman.
Right, I momentarily forgot that it's current year, and it's now the liberals demanding censorship. What's up with that? How did we even get here?
It was ALWAYS the left. They censor and then when there's backlash they blame the right. It's always been that way. The democrats created the CCA, the MPAA, the ESRB, and those Parental Advisory stickers on CDs.
half of Yea Forums is gay
retards
the "realistic" designs of the characters from MOTU was due to the fact that the animators were using the toys and comic books as the base for the characters. it's why Filmation recycled so much animation, because it's cheap and it serves their purpose, not because it was their goal to turn kids into perverts.
Sex-negative feminism has always had a large discourse within American feminism.
Don't forget the KKK!
OP wasn't talking about how realistic the character designs were. Who are you to call anyone a retard when you don't understand the subject of the thread?
It seems like only queer expressions of sexuality are allowed these days, anything else is seen as exploitative.
>"sexual content"
>in fucking He-Man
yes I am calling all those people retards for ever thinking that.
It wasn't sexual then. Your generation is just a thousand times more puritanical than the one that preceded you.
unlike SU or South Park?
>I am calling all those people retards for ever thinking that
OP was the only one who thought that
Nah, just look at Appertia or Futura from the Filmation Ghostbusters. Legs, hips, and tits galore.
Well geez. I wish all the animators had a budget like Disney, who wouldn’t dream about using such cost cutting met-OH wait, they did.
This is a retarded argument in of itself. It’s not what the thread is about, and even if it was, then what of it? Reusing animation in of itself is not a crime unless it breaks the flow. Best example is the cost cutting methods in 90’s Spider-Man. I’d take trace-overs than cut and paste in an action show anyway.
Besides that, they didn’t have to make their designs that in the first place, did they? It’s a separate issue from the animation. Could’ve just had them be blobs of flesh and that would’ve been the easiest to trace, but anatomically correct humans where they can see details such as their abs is definitely not cutting costs.
I can’t wait for generation Zyclon B to bust through the millennials’ safe spaces. Can I divorce my generation and join the good guys?
Really if one looks at the culture of the 80’s it was a time of loving the peak human form. There are clear reasons why the 80’s was filled with video exercise routines and the idolization of hunky action heroes. The 60-70’s philosophy of “do what you want” and the consumer friendly culture of the 80’s. Unlike today’s “your freedom stops where my feelings begin,” and “healthy at every size.”
The same reason they sexualise sports.
lack of interwebz pron
Kind of interesting how each generation seems to rebel against the one that came before it. Gen X and Early Millennials were edgier, cooler, and hip compared to their fathers, but their children are super uptight and angry about everything.
The 80s compared to now is like Ancient Greece compared to the Dark Ages
>it's not like anyone who had hit puberty was watching He-Man and jacking off to all those ass shots of Teela
Says you
Of course people were jacking off to sexy cartoons back then. Get your head out of your dick.
Because its visually pleasing and makes the female characters more enjoyable.
I haven't jacked off to a comic in like 15 years but I still actively want Wonder Woman to have cleavage and skin showing.
>It's not like anyone who had hit puberty was watching He-Man and jacking off to all those ass shots of Teela.
Faggot.
I think you should post more examples of her, for the sake of fair science.
Stop pretending the religious right wasnt a thing, and were doing most of the fucking pearl clutching in the 80s and 90s.
I'm a health care professional and am shocked that the "healthy at any size" concept exists when there is clear research indicating that neither being too fat nor being too skinny are healthy in the long term.
Whatever. Keeps me in a job, ya unhealthy fucks.
This. Lefties and righties can both go fuck themselves. And that goes for anyone who wants to censor or silence freedom of expression.
I will not apologize for liking the female form
Nah it all boils down to consent. It just gets sticky when people don't know where their limits are and want to retroactively call rape after the fact, as if they had not consented. .
>Why were cartoons made for KIDS in the 1980s and 1990s so filled with sexual content?
Good taste I guess
Literally just what a fit woman looks like.
You dense motherfucker.
Non-fat women are sexual and make my fee-fees hurt.
He's right. Fuck all political assholes for being the cancer that they are.
Filmation may get shit for being lazy and cheap with the stock footage, but they were based as fuck as far as I'm concerned
>Ancient Greece compared to the Late Antiquity Period/Early Medieval Period
What?
Granted the outfits could be skimpy, but it's not like they were acting like Miley Cyrus.
