The [https://whatculture.com/comics/15-worst-female-superhero-costumes?page=6 "slutty Invisible Woman costume"] (as it is called) was nearly universally despised, and they got rid of it quick - Marvel seemed to be going through a "strange" period with redesigns then.

Line 175 ⟶ 178:
* In ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'', it seemed the female fighters' outfits were getting progressively more skimpy in each installment. For example, Kitana went from [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/6/69/KitanaFanSteel.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20110924163834 this], to [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/f/f4/MK3U-01_Kitana.png/revision/latest?cb=20120110174612 this], to [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/1/1d/Kitana_mk9_koncept_nobg_by_fullm8n-d32kod1.png/revision/latest?cb=20121114200930 this]; unlockable skins were often even worse. Eventually, though, around the tenth game, developers made an about face and started [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/mkwikia/images/3/33/Kitana_MK11_render.png/revision/latest?cb=20200510004518 giving the female characters more dignity.]
* ''[[Battletoads]]'' subverts this with the Dark Queen, the 2020 relaunch having her swap the [[Dominatrix]] outfit from the original game for more modest (maybe more "cartoonish") [[Evil Sorceress]] robes. She actually has something to say about this to her old associate Jeff (and by association, [[Trolling Creator|fans who complained about the change]]) after Jeff criticizes her outfit, doing so [[High Altitude Interrogation|as she dangles him from their spaceship’s airlock:]]
{{quoteDarkquote|'''Dark Queen:''' I guess we’ve changed Jeff, I’ve grown more impatient and you want to control what I’m wearing. [[Sarcasm Mode|Like you’re entitled to it because we hung out twenty years ago]].}}

* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7h3mtgVlwg&list=PLEW5pt51nZ-M2MBTHS0PCjEo6t-nNf-R7&index=17 This adaptation] of the plot of ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver]]''. While Whitney’s… assets are not quite as exaggerated in story as the thumbnail suggests, all NPCs and the two protagonists are given a slight [[Age Lift]], making them teenagers, and many important female characters are made more voluptuous. There's even a few teen-romance and dating scenes in some parts of the story.

Line 181 ⟶ 188:
* Rather infamously, ''[[Sonichu]] 8''.
* When T gave up on getting ''[[Penny and Aggie]]'' syndicated, he "celebrated" it with "Behind Closed Doors", where nearly all the couples past and present either have sex or almost have sex. This is the first arc to hint at [[Anything That Moves|Stan]]'s bisexuality, and while it's not the first arc to hint at Sara's lesbianism, [[A Date with Rosie Palms|touching herself to Lindsay Lohan]] is a bit clearer than the strip had gotten in the past.
* ''[[Penny Arcade (Webcomic)|Penny Arcade]]'s'' infamous censored ''[[Strawberry Shortcake]]'' [http://www.penny-arcade.com/2003/4/14/ strip], which was actually a parody of the industry's [[American McGee's Alice|tendency]] to do this plus [[Darker and Edgier]]. The creators were sent a cease and desist letter by American Greetings but [https://whatever.scalzi.com/2003/04/25/strawberry-shortcake-and-penny-arcade/ it can be seen (with an explanation) here.]

* ''[[Eerie Cuties]]'' and its first spin-off, ''[[Magick Chicks]]'', were both slightly risque, possibly the equivalent of PG-13 ratings. ''[[Dangerously Chloe]]'', the second spin-off, was far closer to an R-rating, with more suggestive and NSFW material - the protagonist is a succubus, after all.

*:* Arguably, the later seasons in general. They've never exactly shied away from making sexual references but there's a bit more... blatancy in the later ones. Marge getting breast implants, anyone? Or [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot|making out with Lindsay Neagle]] (in Homer's imagination)?
* Introduction of Lola Bunny in ''[[Space Jam]]'' had this purpose in the ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' franchise.
* ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20100218125658/http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8039477657790445932 Red Hot Riding Hood]''. Starts out as a normal Little Red Riding Hood until the characters suddenly rebel at this done-to-death staging and demand a fresh approach. Red is a sexy adult nightclub entertainer. It was voted #7 of The 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time.
* In the [[Famous Studios]] ''[[Popeye]]'' shorts, [[Damsel in Distress|Olive]] [[Informed Attractiveness|Oyl]] was made more attractive so it would make more sense that Popeye and Bluto were fighting over her.
* While the [http://images.wikia.com/thundercats/images/8/80/Cheetara.jpg original] [[Thundercats|Cheetara]] is still considered sexy by fans, many agree that the [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110828032841/thundercats/images/4/4f/Cheetara_1223.JPG 2011 version] is much sexier.
* Speaking of [[Cat Girl]]s; some versions of the[[Wonder characterWoman]]'s foe Cheetah raise the question of whether she is a human under a costume and for that matter, whether she is even wearing a costume. The animated movie ''[[Catwoman: Hunted]]'' [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9gXRVm-0dA answers both in the negative.]

* Inverted with [[Barbie]], whose wardrobe originally included lingerie (though most of her lingerie resembled long gowns, which Barbie will either use as undergarments or sleepwear), but by the late 2000s she cannot wear lingerie anymore to avoid alienating little girls.
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hula Hula dancing] is, in fact, an inversion. While the idea of the coconut bra is rather suggestive, those were added when tourism became popular in Hawaii and Polynesia. Traditionally, female hula dancers were topless.
* As of the mid-2020s, fashion is increasingly trending towards becoming even Hotter and Sexier than before, mostly thanks to social media like Instagram and TikTok featuring women who flaunt their beauty to entice men (and women). To some extent, porn is also responsible for the sexualization of the everyday look, as [[Buxom Is Better|large breasts]] and [[Baby Got Back|a large ass]] are in ''full force'' as the desired look for women. General [[Camp|flamboyancy]] is also more strongly pronounced than ''ever'' thanks to the [[Bishounen]] style making a huge impact online, so men now have to pull double duty of being both pretty ''and'' handsome to attract women, and that too brings it's own style of sexualization to the everyday fashion standard.
