I drew up this almost-tutorial In response to the user named "Poll", who wanted to know about how to draw women.
It's fairly simple really. The secret is in the circles. Simpsons women are generally made up from two circles - one for the hips and one for the chest, with a couple of curved lines in between for the abdomen. Once you have those circles you can start experimenting with the shape and other techniques, but this is a good start.
Forgive the crudeness of the image. I only did it in a few minutes.
It's not a tutorial as such, more of a quick and dirty guide for the basics. For more in depth tutorials on drawing people I recommend
polykarbon.com, which has a good range of tutorials. They're aimed more toward animé/manga style art, but they cover the basics well enough.
For more in deoth knowledge of the human form I recommend attending some life-drawing classes. Nothing beats the actual thing when learning to draw people.

In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see.

Make up your mind!!
It really helps when I look and study the circles. Especially in every angle.
