Gender Discrimination in Disney movies

This is my Gender Issue group project. We spent a whole weekend making this cute and 'thought provoking' video. The first little boy being interviewed was my private student, Anson Ng, who was 6, and the girl demonstrated at the back was my beloved cousin, Themis Shuen.

@gammaOrionis77 it makes a big difference...I'm not saying I agree with how things are but media movies and tv have molded our society and Girls act a certain way and guys act a certain way it all comes back to our primal instincts and attraction girls like alpha male tall dark and handsome dudes and compare every guy off that and guys like sexy womanly curves and compare every girl off that because of movies like these and the society we are brought up in it sucks but its true

@Alcavexus People should act like THEMSELVES regardless of gender. Just what do you think constitutes "acting like a girl/boy"? Should all girls sew? Should all boys know how to handle a sword? People should be allowed to do what they like. If a boy likes to sew (my brother does, and so do I, incidentally - I am a girl) or a girl likes to fight (I take fencing), what difference does their genitalia make?

I think girls should be girls, and boys should be boys. Girls shouldn't act like boys and boys shouldn't act like girls. There's just some things society has in place so no one is confused when they get older trying to find the opposite sex.

I've noticed that 90% of Disney gender ranks are the same!

It's called a cartoon. They have to make the bad guy look bad, the good guy look tall and strong.

Remember that most are supposed to be based after fairy tales. It's a simple thing. It's so... very... sad that all of you see something and shout racism.
