How interesting!

“… But with a paradigm shift, the cartoon becomes an Academy Award-winning Short in 1949. the cartoon For Scent-imental Reasons, introduced us to Penelope Cat, by cat standards beautiful, and sadly by any standards rather unlucky.

Penelope was unspeaking, unlike the females, Pepe has chased in earlier cartoons (not until 1995). Penelope had attitude and readily returned any hijinx that Pepe sent her way, although at times quite bewildered by the advances of Pepe Le Pew and his potent fragrance. There are various ways that Penelope has gotten a stripe down her back and tail giving the appearance of a female skunk. The one depicts above is by rubbing against a freshly flagpole painted white. But what happens is a complete turn about and Penelope cat now begins to chase Pepe Le Pew (Penelope was attracted to Pepe when his skunk smell was not there) and the rest is cartoon history-the new love-hate on again and off again (both Pepe and Penepole depending upon the story and circumstances are repulsed by each other) relationship of Pepe Le Pew and Penelope cat.

Oddly in this feature there a point where Pepe puts a gun to his head and slowly walks off screen and pulls the trigger, which may be why this entire cartoon is hard to find, just clips.

Nonetheless, this launched Pepe Le Pew and Penelope cat.”

Getting older as a woman. Sometimes I feel like my body has completely betrayed me and taken away my sexuality.

This is not a sad post just a thought. Women’s health and aging isn’t talked about enough.
I hear you. And it's not just women.

Just got back from a doctors appointment, where "over time" things are starting to happen. Not happy about that! :mad:
 
That I want to get home from work now.

And that I shouldn't read lit while I'm at work...

Oh my goodness, let me tell you that it is never a great idea to look at work. A lesson I have learned myself far too many times over the years. It's too tempting of a time suck, too alluring in multiple ways...yeah. Makes me grateful that I work at home now.
