* Many who saw "The Wabbit Who Came to Supper" believed that Bugs showed a penis upon exiting put of Elmer's shower. Upon closer examination, as Bugs' towel drooped his legs were spread apart and what was showing was the exterior of the tub.

* "WesternAnimation/AnItchInTime" has one surprisingly blatant example that somehow waltzed right past the censors: a dog is dragging his itchy butt across a carpet, and pauses to cheerfully comment to the audience "Hey, I'd better cut this out, [[ADateWithRosiePalms I may get to like it]]!"

* The 1934 short ''WesternAnimation/HoneymoonHotel'' has two newly-wed bugs. At the end when the fire is extinguished, the two come out of the murphy bed. The male puts a "Do Not Disturb" sign on their hotel room door and crawls back into bed. Both of them give the audience a wink and the murphy bed goes back into the wall with them inside. The murphy bed has a calendar with a baby on it, which ''also'' gives the audience a wink.

* In the original theatrical release of "WesternAnimation/DevilsFeudCake", when Satan first sees Yosemite Sam, he says to him, "Well, who in Hell are you?".
** When the cartoon aired on television, [[EditedForSyndication the line was replaced]] with, "What the devil is your name?".

* At one point in "WesternAnimation/RabbitSeasoning", Bugs does his traditional [[DisguisedInDrag drag gag]] towards [[FoeYay Elmer Fudd]] (of course), who falls in love with him. When Bugs comes closer to him, [[SomethingElseAlsoRises Elmer's hat stretches with a "boing" sound.]] Erm...

Happened in many ''Looney Tunes'' shorts with surprising frequency. Why? Because the animators and writers didn't have to worry (much) about standards and practices boards (besides UsefulNotes/TheHaysCode), the cartoons were meant for an audience of adult theatergoers (although, in contrast to modern-day "adult" cartoons, they didn't latch on to gross-out comedy and raunchy sex to get laughs), and even if they did have to worry about indecent content, UsefulNotes/TheHaysCode officers went after vaguely sexual or subversive content in both live-action and animated movies rather than the stuff that would today be considered plainly obvious.

** This might've been {{Lampshaded}} in an episode of WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow, in which Bugs Bunny stated that he would rather not explain his past as he stated that he never went to high-school. ''[[{{Squick}} Yeah...]]''

* In "WesternAnimation/BewitchedBunny", after Bugs turns Witch Hazel into a female rabbit, he turns to the camera and remarks, "Ah, sure, I know, but aren't they ''all'' witches inside?" That line was actually the subject of controversy in Canada, of all places, for being misogynistic and got it banned by the National Film Board. The ban was lifted three days later.

* In "WesternAnimation/BirdsOfAFather", Sylvester tries to shoot a bird, but ends up shooting a prop bird off an old woman's hat, which promts the woman to smack him with her purse. When Junior laments that his father would go to such a low as "shooting a defenseless old lady," Sylvester quips in response "Aw, son...she's about as defenseless as a porcupine in a nudist colony."

That line was actually the subject of controversy in Canada, of all places, for being misogynistic (and yet, America -- which has MoralGuardians by the boatload going after every little thing and chipping away at what's supposed to be fun and entertaining, regardless of age -- did nothing about it). The case in Canada was dropped after a few days.

* "Museum Scream' features a scene where Sylvester goes through a digestive tract display. After he's crapped out, Tweety says this:

* In one scene "Porky's Badtime Story", a dripping ceiling wakes up Gabby Goat. He sees a damp spot on the bed and shoots a glare at Porky, implying Gabby thought for a moment [[ToiletHumour Porky had wet the bed]]. repeated with Daffy Duck in the remake "Tick Tock Tuckered."

So, you see, kids: even back then, the censors weren't very bright.
