Sorry, but if you're using a Disney film as an example of a good portrayal of women, you've already lost.

- merlincorey 13y agoUmmmm... wut? I'm not using a Disney film as an example of a good portrayal of women, and neither is the author of the seduction book. The implication is that the Disney movie, made and marketed for children, has a song called "Kiss the girl" which is about as rape-y as the advice in the seduction manual. Which is to say not at all.
- blocking_io 13y agoThe whole premise of The Little Mermaid is paternalistic and problematic.
- Crake 13y agoOh my god. Really? Guess you better go tell a bunch of little girls that they aren't allowed to like whatever their favorite female Disney protagonist happens to be.
- blocking_io 13y agoJust because little girls like it, doesn't mean it isn't problematic.
- Crake 13y agoSo, the male computer scientist now feels qualified to tell little girls what is and isn't ok for them to like. I thought you didn't like men telling women what to do?
- silverlake 13y agoI was just curious about this Disney song everyone mentions. It's actually kinda' weird: Yes, you want her Look at her, you know you do It’s possible she wants you, too There is one way to ask her It don’t take a word Not a single word Go on and kiss the girl
- Crake 13y agoRAPE CULTURE or is it LAND CULTURE? perhaps it is MER CULTURE?? (I haven't seen that movie in a long while.)
