Eric Cartman has always had a complex relationship with women in South Park And there is so much to disappoint if you walk through the hundreds of encounters that he has during the course of the series. While I was able to do a piece about the cognitive dissonance experiences when he gets the girls in his class, while he has total control over her mother on the home front, I am here today to talk about a little more … privately.
Have you ever wondered why Cartman is always confused about female anatomy? Because the answer since the second season of “Cartman’s mother is still a dirty bitch” in front of us. Finds out that his father is actually his mother, who reveals himself as Hermaphrodite.
You can’t kick women there
In season 11 “The List”, the boys find out that the girls have a list in their class that takes every boy from the ugliest to the sweetest. Eric Cartman decides that women should not have this type of power about them and typical South Park Fashion decides to steal the document from his female colleagues with the help of his friends.
In his infinite wisdom, Cartman organizes a simple retirement plan to call up the list, and his entire strategy depends on the fact that butter’s Nelly kicks the ball. Horrified that this offensive measure did not provide the results they were looking for, the boys gather back to Cartman’s house, where he says: “Okay, our mission failed, but we learned a lot. First and foremost, that girls have no balls.”
At first glance The South Park The episode can be attributed to the fact that he is an 8-year-old who simply does not understand that boys and girls have different layouts under the belt.
But this topic is visited continuously South Park‘S Run and suggests that there is a deeper meaning if you look at Cartman’s perspective thanks to the unique circumstances in connection with his birth.
Still playing ball in season 20
When the persistent feud of the South Park Boys with the girls in their class in the “member beries” of season 20 comes into the head, Cartman is raised again by his own Petard when he decides to take the matter into his own hands. Cartman in the staging of an ambality puts on himself and pulls the private parts of women on his own face to point out that the girls held him and got him to the point to pursue the online troll that is always compatible as Skankhunt42. The boys quickly lose interest in Cartman’s lie – that should start a gender war – when Kyle points out that women have no balls that Cartman has included in the drawing on his face.
Eric Cartman, who is absolutely certain that women actually have balls, remains more confused than ever, while Kyle and the rest of the gang continue with their lives because he is an idiot.
It’s all a question of perspective
When you think about how protected Eric Cartman is actually South Park Despite his sociopathic tendencies, it makes sense that the only woman he has probably ever seen naked in his life on this point is his mother Liane. Since his mother is a hermaphrodite in Cartman’s head, every woman must be everything he has ever seen. Although Cartman is an evil genius and master manipulator of the highest order in any other scenario, his limited knowledge of the female anatomy is a lot of sense because he is only a child and interacts with the world based on the limited information that he is literally exposed.
Point/counterpoint
While there is an argument that is revealed about the 14th season of “201” that Cartman shares a father with Scott Tenorman, South Park’s Overall, the feeling of continuity enables you to consider this episode for several reasons than non-canononic.
Since Trey Parker and Matt Stone does not write an episode every week, they may not have known that they were regarded this turn in the most controversial episode at the time. Due to her representation of the Prophet Muhammad in “201” and its previous episode “200”, this two -part saga was pulled out of syndication and pulled StreamingWhich means that fans of the show rarely see these episodes unless they have the DVDs. What is more, more, South Park Always had a problem with continuity – as Kenny died in the early seasons in every episode, just to be killed unlimited before being reintroduced into the series as if nothing had happened.
In other words and for most South Park Fans, Eric Cartman’s understanding of women and their anatomy, most agrees with the above theory that his mother Is A hermaphrodite that displaced his perception of fairer sex because he just doesn’t know better.
