And I feel disconnected from adults who sing Disney songs and go to Disney movies in theaters. I wasn’t into it by the time I was like 10. I liked some of their stuff growing up, but it was never life defining? I never was super super into it like a lot of kids. Like the Disney original things from my childhood. This is a data/photo exploration I am doing on my couch.ĭisclaimer 2 (and please don’t come for me): I am actually not that big of a Disney fan. So I figured I should at least dip my foot into the pseudo-science Disney pool.ĭisclaimer 1: This is not an academic study or paper. My research and interests think a lot about aesthetic and the human face in context of identity and narrative. I have been thinking a lot about this type of stuff recently. And that’s fair - they were a cultural moment and pivot in so many ways.īut I think there is some extraordinarily interesting and disturbing trneds in how Disney has drawn lots of female characters. I understand why are are more enraged about the women, but I have to be honest - I am concerned about the men too.īut I digress, many people have focused on the princesses. I think it’s also worth noting that the cartoon men are also unreasonable. And that even in live action appearances seem to have digitally altered waists, sorry Lilly James.īut it’s not just Disney princesses, a variety of characters have just unreasonable bodies. People point out that even more “woke” princesses like Elsa also have extraordinarily tiny waists. I actually think they made the waist too tiny in the photo, in terms of proportion to the body.
