Is Peggy supposed to be hot?


I mean, I think Luanne is mega hot but her face isn't drawn sexily, but I could go either way on Peggy. I can't tell from the way she's drawn if she's supposed to be homely, geeky, "hot".

Someone help me out πŸ˜€

I think Peggy is plain, meaning that she isn't beautiful nor ugly. Bill, of course, finds her utterly gorgeous while Hank is simply smitten.

I could see her as plain tooπŸ˜“

Peggy thinks she's hot.

That I know. Still doesn't say much about what the creators intended 😜

Peggy seems to look old/middle aged. I never thought of her as hot. Nancy is hot though.

She does have kind of an "old" aura about her. I blame the hairdo.

Nancy has horrible hair too.

I've seen some "things" online I wish I hadn't, aka Rule 34 of Peggy Hill, so apparently at least some people out there consider her attractive.

Total given 😝

I've always gotten the impression that she is supposed to be on the homely side. Some examples would be when she entered the beauty pageant with the reactions of everyone who found out she entered (including Hank), when she thought the Vaya Con Dios priest from that TV show was trying to seduce her when she was tutoring his kids....he and his wife could not stop laughing at the thought, and I think it's the episode where Cotton purchases the time share and asks Bill "who do you think is uglier, Hank's Momma or Hank's wife?" Not to mention many comments Dale has made about her looks (like when they were trying to find a way to raise money or something Dale says "we could have our wives serve pizza topless...not yours though, Hank"....I'm paraphrasing but that is the gist). These and more seem to me like she is supposed to be more than simply plain...Bill thinking she is hot means nothing because, well, look at his standards.

reply

I wouldn't call Peggy homely. As I've said before, she's nothing to write home about, but she is far from ugly. Cotton calling Peggy ugly means nothing as he has a very hostile attitude toward her. Bill, however, DID have an attractive wife. Since she cheated on him and he sees Nancy cheating on Dale, that might be why Bill finds Peggy beautiful.

I'm just going by the examples I have given. I don't really have an opinion on her myself as she is a cartoon....I'm simply saying other characters seem to find her unattractive. Hell even that trannie she befriended thought she was a dude.

reply

Only because of the size of her feet (not to mention that they met in a transvestite store). At least that was the reason when the two boys saw Peggy after Tammy the prostitute gave her a makeover.

I think Tresix has a good point about Bill's attraction for Peggy. Plus I tend to think she's more attractive than pretty. Of course, Peggy herself would beg to differ!

reply

Indeed, you make a good case.

You know what I could never wrap my head around? It often seems the people running this show try their best to show any of the male character's backsides or naked (even Bobby), yet, the women are pretty off limits. There certain moments, but rarely. I understand showing the men naked is suppose to be intended for comedy, but still. Which would ypu rather see, Bill or Nancy's can?

reply

It's like you said, seeing Bill's backside is funny. Seeing Nancy's would be titillating. It would be like seeing Oprah naked as opposed to say, Taraji P. Henson.

It was her arrogance that led her to think she was smarter and more attractive than she was.
