Betty and the Censors

The Hays Code's implementation in 1934 transformed Betty Boop from a rebellious sex symbol into a sanitized housewife, effectively destroying everything that made her culturally significant. Moral crusaders led by William Harrison Hays systematically stripped away Betty's revealing clothing, flirtatious behavior, and independent spirit, replacing them with conservative values and domestic storylines. This dramatic censorship not only killed Betty's popularity but established precedents for entertainment industry self-regulation that would shape American popular culture for decades, demonstrating how organized moral pressure could erase artistic innovation and cultural relevance.
