Some of the earlit exampl of gay characters or them existg a work geared towards children origate classic works of animatn ridn wh “adult humor” such as Looney Tun and Tom and Jerry.
Frequent exampl of gay humor ed the rtoons are male characters cross-drsg due to a certa edic suatn, and unable or unallowed to break character, they are forced to kiss another male character, and are the nstant object of sire for a humoroly butch male.
