This is a sexy character, too bad they ruined her in the cartoon with that man voice. And Jackie Kennedy was very sexy as well (the person this character is based off of)
Only because of her low voice...the growly, three-pack-a-day bit was just added for comedic effect. Originally they envisioned her having a voice similar to Harvey Fierstein [link]
I see, I used to think she was a transexual until I read otherwise. Still, she is a great....looking character, I've only seen a few episodes to know her personality.
