Betty Boop was created in those days of Jazz Age Flappers, a Jazz singer, she is flirtatious. She was drawn with a head more similar to a baby's than an adult's in proportion to her body. This suggested the combination of girlishness and maturity that many people saw in the flapper type, which Betty represented. While the character was kept pure and girl-like onscreen, compromises to her virtue were a challenge.—wiki Her first cameo appearance in Popeye the Sailor (1933). A certain girlish quality was given to the character.

_{^{A time when women were empowered, girl power!—Anaya}}

High praise for Talkartoon Betty Boop Her Jazzy theme song Poop poopy doop! My partner thinks she’s a creepy sexpot She’s innocence and sass, shy she’s not!

Haha, this is fun and playful! I love how you capture Betty Boop’s mix of sass and charm—the “Poop poopy doop!” line really brings her jazzy energy to life. The contrast with your partner’s view adds a humorous touch. Very lively and entertaining!
