What was the reasoning behind characters like Lola bunny??

In the 90s, what was it exactly that led to people deciding 'lets put this it' for things like Minerva Mink, and Lola bunny?

Was it just pervy 90s furries already in the industry? That would make sense if it was the artists who wrote and produced the thing, but its not.

Is it a joke? Like... 'haha, animal characters aren't sexy, that makes this funny'?

I don't get it.

Sexy animal characters are very common since the 40`s

They wanted a female member to the team, because reasons and stuff. She was designed before anyone figured out what to do with her. She was "written" after she was drawn. Apparently someone on the team decided she should be extra sexy.

Don't blame on a conspiracy what could be easily explained by executives not knowing what to do.

Even if the writers/artists aren't furry, drawing animal characters "sexy" shows they're meant to be considered attractive or love interests within their own cartoons. They're just drawn like human women for that to be immediately obvious upon seeing them (or, if the cartoon's meant to be semi-realistic instead of comedic, because the artists are hacks). Lola is supposed to be hot, so is Minerva, etc.

Not to say furries haven't been involved with this sort of thing though.

People complaining about "sexy" is something that happened far less when Lola was made.

To appeal to girls.

Boys enjoy it, spend $$$. If girls also enjoy it, that's more $$$. 'Girl Power' was big at the time so that's what they went with.

I miss Girl Power

It was a lot better than what we have now.

She's sex appeal and a love interest for Bugs. It's not that complicated OP.

Minerva short was homage to Tex Avery

Because in the 90's female characters were expected to be badass, sassy, and sexy

Why in the 2010s are characters often drawn with unfortunate body types and often written with unattractive personalities?

i thought it was mockery of these bitches who are as shallow as the guys they lust for.

She was supposed to have more lines and be more fleshed out but in the final product they were cut and they did the best they could to characterize a character with a single line. Personally I think Baby Looney Tunes Lola as what would be her base personality

The lack of show-accurate porn of these gals is upsetting. Specially while there are asrtists out there like DLtoons drawing Danny Phantom's mom almost exclusively.
