Disney is inescapable...
but alterable.




People used to ask me, as a self-identified feminist, if I knew what "feminist" problems Disney movies had. I sensed there were issues but couldn't put my finger on exactly what. This blog is all ten of my fingers attempting to discuss how Disney stories and imagery can be both groundbreaking and problematic.

What is feminism? For me, it's an examination and deconstruction of many inter-relating issues. Issues of racism, cultural exploitation, under-representation, body shaming, et cetera are, in my mind, intrinsic to the definition, and they compromise a large percentage of this site's discussion. It is not just about women, yet it is always about women because the issues of all people are interrelated and affect us all.

Imagine if the Disney characters could speak again. What would they tell us?
