Nah, it's pretty obvious the cheetah is wearing skin tight clothes for asthetic reasons. It might have been habit rather than design, but the artist definitely chose to draw titty-shaped torso rather than cop-shaped torso.

It's not even fucking close either. They drew more titty shape than literal fetish wear shows, much less an actual cop.

I dunno. I'm a woman and I didn't notice the skin-tight thing until it was pointed out, but looking back at it, wouldn't any clothes do that at 90 mph?

ACAB but it doesn't look horny to me. She's just woman-shaped to me.

Β―\_(ツ)_/Β― Maybe, but it still managed to not look right despite that. It feels more like a failure to communicate speed with the art rather than intending horny anyways. That's part of the problem though. The image looks horny first, and speedy second, or really even third.

I genuinely cannot believe that people still care about this in the year 2024.

Like, does anyone care if people draw animal people looking cute or sexy or just with human proportions or anything in between? Does it really bother anyone or is it just fun to try to bandwagon something that freaked some housewives out in the 90's because some inside edition episode? It's just drawings of animal characters like have been done for literal millenia. Imagine if some of the more "notorious" disney films came out today, people would lose their minds.

Woah, hey, easy there. You're starting to take this personally. Dial it back a little.

Nobody cares that it's a horny image. This is the internet in 2024. The artist just managed to hit that sweet spot of genuine effort + not quite skilled enough = unintentionally hilarious. It's bad movie night, but for comics.

We're all laughing at the stripper cop who the artist genuinely expected us to take seriously, not complaining that there's clutches pearls big titty cheetah cops!

You mean like zootopia?

Oh yeah, because when I see Egyptian hieroglyphs, I think sexy beasts.

The point is not the anthropomorphism. The point is related tothe deliberate sexual undertone. And I'm not even a prude. I don't care much about what people prefer. It's just that the Internet broke us.

It's like the word "cuck" (ugh.) A scholar may use it in the utmost right context, and yet, all that word does is infuriate me because of the overuse the The_Donald crowd gave to it.

Why you getting sand in your crack about something everyone is joking about?

An animal. Shaped as a fit, sexy woman. Shared on Lemmy. Yeah, not horny. Sure.

To be fair, the tiny waist is pretty accurate to how to the animal looks. Giving the cop big titties and skin-tight uniform might actually be the best way to portray an anthropomorphised cheetah.

You can't really compare real life people's proportions to a cartoon of an anthropomorphic animal. To me its clear there was no intention for this image to be sexual at all. And believe me, if a furry wanted to draw something suggestive, there would be no discussion as to its horny status. They aren't known for subtlety.

You've missed the point; it doesn't matter if the author intended to draw a horny photo. I already agreed on that point in my above comment. The point is that the situation makes no sense for a horny image, but it still looks like one anyways.

I can when the animal has bigger tittys than most strippers do.
