  • Betty Boop

    Betty Boop’s name is notoriously synonymous with a phrase that pervades the mind of any cartoon fan, “Boop-Oop-a-Doop!” She is the creation of Max Fleisher and his associates, a dazzling, surreal image of their ideal woman: curvy, sexy, scantily clad, and, yet, childlike. Fleisher created Betty Boop as an image to be looked at, not so much to be watched, for her cartoons consist of shaky story lines, dehumanized women, and domineering men. Through an analysis of Betty’s physical appearance, her flaky story lines, and demoralizing image in her early years (1930-1932), Fleisher’s apparent distaste and disregard for women becomes all too clear.
