Yah but tbh all the monster girls are still drawn as hot or, at the very least, cute. Reminds me of that meme with female and male fantasy races like orcs or satyrs, where the female versions are all just the same model in a bikini with a recolored skin. There is a difference IMO, from personal experience.
It's also interesting that Beauty and the Beast is the "benchmark" used here because the novel was originally written to prepare young girls for arranged marriages. So that girls would get used to marrying a "monster" – aka a rich asshole their parents chose.
