Again, like, I don't think people realize what downplaying or diminishing her figure really means. It basically just reiterates what we've been told our whole lives that our bodies are inherently vulgar and shameful.
) husband, and who repeatedly saves him and herself
EXACTLY. So any time a woman reveals parts of her body, in this case a cartoon with her cleavage exposed, it automatically means her purpose is reduced to pretty much nothing, besides maybe sexual favors or for the male to gaze upon her, and therefore such displays of her body should never be? As you stated, that is counterproductive and reduces the female body to nothing if it is not fully clothed.Again, like, I don't think people realize what downplaying or diminishing her figure really means. It basically just reiterates what we've been told our whole lives that our bodies are inherently vulgar and shameful.
And that she's not, you know, a woman who loves her (Rabbit
Both men and women should be able to expose parts of their bodies, as long as they’re not exposing obvious inappropriate parts.
Disney has been trying to make another movie on and off for 30 years. The issue isn’t Disney’s interest. The idea that a new convoluted story on the ride will spark Spielberg’s interest is ridiculous.
And yet eyes bigger than their waists on a of the female characters for the last 10 plus years is fine, though, lol
I'd hate to think that. It's terrible, my dude.
As a proud Mexican, I don't have any issue with any portrayal of us at Disney. Not even the older stuff, either. I guess my issue is that they are going to price out Hispanic families, not how there's a bird with a Spanish accent or Donald Duck in a sombrero. I think those "issues" are completely dumb and a waste of resources and they should focus more on not pushing out minorities from visiting their parks.
Don't get me started on that.Oh, I fully realize their actual popularity with real people in South America.
But that doesn't mean a thing to an HR Committee of people who get paid to be Woke.
Heck, I am currently 30 miles from the Mexican border. I have several social friends here in town who are Latinos of Mexican heritage, and at a dinner party earlier this summer two of them were ranting and raving about all these young white kids now who have declared that they be called Latinx, a new word that is meaningless in Spanish and dumb to pronounce in any language.
Latinx is primarily used only by white kids on college campuses, hipster white neighborhoods, or in HR departments by people who want to sound better than you, but it's baffling to actual Latinos in the real world. Only 3% of Latinos in the USA use the term "Latinx", and those 3% likely work in HR and are forced to use it by their white bosses.
About One-in-Four U.S. Hispanics Have Heard of Latinx, but Just 3% Use It
The term Latinx has emerged in recent years as a gender-neutral alternative to the pan-ethnic terms Latino, Latina and Hispanic. However, awareness of Latinx is relatively low among the population it is meant to describe.www.pewresearch.org
What does Latinx have to do with all this? It's just one more clear example of how a tiny minority of usually clueless white people who are paid to be Woke mess and fiddle with stuff to prove they are worth their huge HR salary.
That's why I really don't see a bright future for the Viva Navidad! show. It's "problematic" for the "Latinx" community, or at least a few dorks in Burbank will easily earn their salary next fiscal year by claiming such.
Well, I think that scene can be altered to be less stereotypical or replaced with a handful of other characters from the film. Other than that, there's nothing racist or sexist left there and to suggest otherwise is stupid and a blatant cry for attention or overreaching.
Hi, I am also Mexican (maternal side, Indigenous, Puebla/Ciudad de México, etc.), and I just wanted to add to your comment. Panchito Pistoles was created as a goodwill ambassador and was played by a very famous Mexican American nightclub entertainer from San Francisco. He wasn't created to make fun of Mexican people (as many of the Mexican "characters" from other studios were). The 'Las Posadas' segment of Three Caballeros is so beautifully and respectfully done--especially given the time period. Obviously, there were things that may have not aged well, but Zé Carioca and Panchito were created with a degree of reverence and played by very famous and well-respected actors from their time periods. All three voice actors reprised their roles for the Spanish and Portuguese language versions of the film Three Caballeros (All three versions I have seen because they used to play regularly on the Latin TV stations. A few years ago, Three Caballeros played at the Walt Disney Family Museum, to a largely Mexican/ Latin audience, who laughed multiple times, especially when Zé snuck in a few curses that just breezed past the censors. Donald in a Sombrero doesn't bother me, especially since Clarence Nash made huge efforts with the Mexican Spanish--EVEN IN A DONALD VOICE! Trying to make our cultura for sale bothers me. Pricing out Mexican/ Latin/ Black families bothers me. Leaving Black Mexicans out of Coco bothers me.
I am a proud mestizo-American. The term I don't like is Hispanic because that would include Europeans from Spain. At least put New World in front of it to differentiate.
Me too although spinning makes me sick so i always spend the whole ride fighting the steering wheel.
I was always told that H*spanic was a slur and I don't use it. I don't even like typing it out. I was never allowed to refer to myself as the "H word" because of it. It makes sense, though, we aren't Spanish.
Peter Pan, both the attraction and the film, contains grotesque, dehumanizing depictions of Native people, and the film is chock a block full of textbook racial slurs (some of which are still in the instrumental music in the ride queue). The film also hyersexualizes a Native (female) child. Peter Pan should have been the first to be adjusted, along with the Blackface African caricatures of the Jungle Cruise, before anything else.
I am not having a bad faith discussion with a non-Native person who has clearly committed to however they feel about Peter Pan.
