"Neither May Cartoons Show Men Who Appear Too Effeminate"

This is fun. As you all know from your film history textbooks (y'all took a course in Intro to Film at some point, right?), with the onslaught of the Hays Code, Hollywood cartoonists were brought under the same restrictions as their live-action brethren. Now a blog by the name of Cartoon Brew has posted selections from a 1939 Look Magazine article that display a wide range of cartoon no-nos. Dog's scrotums be damned. The real threat to today's youth is udders.

Actually, I'm with them on this one. Udders are just icky. Bessie, you better hide your shame.

A very very big thank you to Children's Illustration for the link.
