I was watching TV last night, my one guilty secret. WWF Smackdown. \<hangs head in shame\> Anyway, there was one of those gawdawful Red Bull commercials. You know, badly animated historical figures discover that an energy drink does indeed cause you to manifest wings on your back that allow you to fly, regardles of a lack of skeletal and muscle structure necessary?

This one featured Adam and Eve, and Eve was, well, naked from the waste up. (There was tall grass obscuring the figures from the waist down.) I mean, she had illustrated bare breasts, complete with little dotted nipples! Now, I can’t claim to be offended by this, but it still doesn’t seem like something that would be permitted to be aired on prime-time network television. Have times changed _that_ much?

Comedy Central has animated breasts and penises every now and then, like on “Bob and Margaret” for example.

She caught your eye like one of those pointy hook latches that used to dangle from screen doors and would fly up whenever you banged the door open again.

Dind’t Ma…(insert surviving Hemmingway sister’s name here) Hemmingway do the full Milly on _NYPD Blue_? Not cartoon but if they’ll show that on prime time.

I never thought about the full udder shots on _Cow and Chicken_…

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m not concerned in the least about breasts in cartoons.

Handy,

You’re missing out! I’m sure someone knows of link post… The best cartoon breasts in the biz are by (Jay?) Ward. He used contribute a lot to Sex to Sexty magazine.

Hey… anyone know where I could get a copy of Sex To Sexty magazine?

Jay Ward? The guy that did Bullwinkle and Cap’n Crunch?

Maybe you’re thinking about Wally Wood.

Cartoon breasts are no surprise.

You can even show live breasts on prime-time TV, as long as they’re not white.

If cartoon breasts are “your thing”, check out Milk magazine, a comic book from either Antarctic Press or Radio Comix, I forget which.
