I ordered some chubby mudflap girl decals on Ebay, but I like yours better. You should definitely consider getting some made, she’s very sexy!

I’ve been looking for mudflaps with this graphic to put on my truck, do you know where I can find them? It is so hot- I always hated the alienwaif mudflaps.

they’ll go with my new bumper sticker; If you cut of my reproductive rights, can I cut off yours?

Thanks

Anyone know the name of the sporting/casual men’s clothing brand that used the mud flap girl to decorate their gear?

Holy crap. What is that thing? I think it might be a “Grey” alien. In a wig. With a watermelon glued to its chest.

I have a whole new appreciation for your mudflap girl, who looks like an actual woman.

awesomely, the latest episode of the Simpsons featured a bit on this exact topic. homer became a tow-truck driver, and when he was buying a tow truck, the truck had the conventional mudflap girl on the mudflaps.

but homer said, “i don’t know, my wife wouldn’t like that…it’s too sexy.” so the truck seller flipped up the flap to reveal another one, of a fat woman’s silhouette (she had big curly hair, and at least 40 lbs. on the BFD mudflap girl). homer replied, “still too sexy.” so the man flipped it up again, and it revealed a silhouette of homer posing like the mudflap girl.

i was totally shocked by this (because of the coincidence with its coinciding with the discussion started last week on this blog), but beyond that wasn’t sure what to think. on one hand, it was clear that the fat woman was supposed to be a less sexy woman than the thin one–but on the other hand, she is still referred to as sexy. and then homer becomes the punchline, which i think is really more of a joke at homer’s expense (which the show thrives on) rather than a dig at fat men in general.

i just couldn’t let this post go by without throwing this crazy coincidence out there!

Oooooh, if one really wants to do more ‘realistic’ shapes with Mudflap girls, can we have ones that are pear, or apple shaped, and etc?
Also, what have all of us been doing with our lives that we don’t have mad photo-shop skills? Sigh, I went to grad school for Art History, and even I don’t think I can help.

I have never before heard of “mudflap girls”… but I agree, I’d have said yours was curvy rather than fat. Though I think I may be visualising her posture as more of a three-quarter turn than is actually intended (not having seen the original). I think she’s cool, though.

(Please don’t give her sticky-outy nipples! I am tired of seeing women in comic-books with unnaturally erect nipples… are they all supposed to be freezing cold, or what? Rhetorical question!)

I think the original mudflap girl’s head looks so big because her hair is supposed to be big and thick and poofy. I could be totally wrong, though.

I love the mudflap girl, even though it’s totally un-PC to do so. The BFD girl is awesome, too, though. And slightly more PC. I love the multiple sizes idea, but have no Photoshop skillz to offer, either.
