Yep, Animators are perverts. They usually like to show more then that is needed, but they have the FCC, watch-dog groups and (if on a network) the BSAP (broadcast standards and practices, AKA the bull-s*** & p***) looking over their shoulders. Most of the time, the only thing they can get away with are sexual innuendos and fan-service that happen vary quickly. In the case of G.I. Joe, the raunchy elements was an escape form all the heavy restrictions the writers and producers faced when producing cartoons for network television. With syndication, you can get a way with more then on network as you dont have to deal with tight-ass Censors. For example: In ReBoot, the Censors objected to Dot kissing Enzo (her young brother) in the cheek because it would promote incest; When Buzz Dixon (a writer on G.I. Joe) wrote for the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, he worked hard to convince the network to show an undead character who was depicted as an anti-hero (ep.9 - Quest of the Skeleton Warrior) as the network did not want any occult themes (Buzz got his way, but he never worked for network again).
Believe it or not, a lot cartoons have sexual innuendos and fan-service, but they are so subtle that most people overlook them. In the case of G.I. Joe, they where vary open about it and happily dish it out. My favorite is the ending of the episode when Lady Jaye and two other Joes wheir turned into kids. They did not show anything overtly sexual, but it was the most priceless fan-service I had ever seen!!
If you want the prof about what type of people Animators are, just look at their production art! Like the topless pic of

from G.I. Joe the Movie or the nude pic of
