Disney + Barney's Creepy Fashion Video


This video, titled "Electric Holiday," was off to a nice start, seemed cute with plenty of fashion and celebrity cameos (including Lady Gaga) ... but then things got weird. Hit the 2:20 mark to watch Tinker Bell light up the runway and transform classic Disney characters into weird, morphic stick models that are sure to satiate some sexual fetish community out there.

I know you are trolling, but the message some of the earlier Disney movies send to young girls is pretty crappy.

LBR they were not catering to young girls ....

I know. Plus the source material (Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White, The Little Mermaid) is pretty messed up. "a guy will only like you if you change yourself completely," "you are useless until a man comes along and kisses/loves you."

This is pretty much the thinking to the majority of YA novels right now. It's quite terrible.

It's true but tbh I didn't understand the messages when I was young.

When I was a kid, I thought that I'd grow up, get married, have kids and my life would be complete. The Disney Princesses kind of fed into that, where all I had to do was be pretty and a nice man would come along and we'd be happily ever after. Obviously life isn't like that, and I grew out of the "someday my prince will come" crap. But they really send out the message that women are more desirable if they are passive.

you need to understand them to internalise them

(sorry to get all political on you lol i don't even actually care)

because kids dont internalize things like that, kids are very literal - "underlying messages" is not something a child will absorb.

what parents do by example, and teach their children with stay with a child as a "message" much much more than watching Cinderella will.

I am not trolling here. I hate Disney. It's a terrible influence.
