This is supremely bad. I'm more worried with the body shapes of women in cartoons than the bad guys being bad. I can't believe this has been made into a project.

This video may have a point, but don't you think the Gaston song was satirical and makes fun of big brawny guys with no brains at all? Most of these masculine guys are the villains in the movies

i have to compliment. i totally agree with you and disney needs to make more videos that are not teaching kids to dominate!

This is borderline retarded. You're an idiot. Gaston is portrayed as arrogant and hated by Belle, who falls for the ugly, but caring Beast. That's all that needs to be said to blow this video apart. Additionally, Mulan is imitating China, those ARE the values there. That's how it was viewed. Same with the Lion King, lions fight to the death for their pride. Not all Disney moves feature strong men as main guys, such as Atlantis, all animated features, Emporer's New Groove etc.

in mulan's time(which was ancient china), she HAD to pretend and act like a man because that was the only way she could get in the army. sometimes you have to consider other elements at work before deciding if it's wrong or not.

A lot of women love to label all men the same and then say all women aren't the same... hypocrites.

This thing prooved the opposite of what it seemed to be trying to proove. All of the male carachters exibiting those traits were the evil guys. I'll allow the point on the body types, but isn't that reality?? Given a choice between two men the equal in charm, personality, kindness, blah blah, would a woman choose the 5'2 bald, chubby guy, or the 6'2" guy with ripped abs?
