Disney's Gender Messaging Abstract Gender in Disney is defined differently through various forms of characterization. The tudys focuses around the messages Disney portrays about gender. Through gender messaging, Disney has left three common recurring themes (Notions of Romance, The Real Housewives of Disney, Is what’s on the outside what’s on the inside?). Disney also has undergone transitions within these themes throughout different time periods (labeled as Classical, Transitional, Contemporary). The changes that have occurred throughout these time periods have been recorded and are valuable in looking at the gender-related cultural scripts of the past. For Disney has changed its interpretation of gender only as much as society let it. Cover Page Footnote Brian Zirkle, Sociology, was the faculty mentor for this Honors contract.

  • Aging with Disney and the Gendering of Evil
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2015, Vol. 5, No. 2, 114-127 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2015.02.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING Aging With Disney and the Gendering of Evil Nada Ramadan Elnahla Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt Walt Disney animated films are considered synonymous with wholesome family entertainment despite the inherent negative messages of gender, age, and power hierarchies behind them. This paper proposes to explore the aspect of age as intersecting with gender through the villainesses in six of Disney’s popular animated films: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), Cinderella (1950), Sleeping Beauty (1959), The Little Mermaid (1989), Tangled (2010), and Frozen (2013). How Disney alters the actions of major and minor characters, and the construction of aging female characters and the key characteristics they exhibit during their fight for eternal youth, beauty, and social and political power will be analyzed, attempting to show how Disney is not a harmless substitute for a babysitter for children. Keywords: aging, ageism, feminism, Disney, animated films, villain Introduction In 1923, Walt Disney and his brother Roy pooled their money to set up a cartoon studio in Hollywood: The Disney Brothers’ Studio. It would take Disney 14 years before the first animated feature-length version of Snow White was released. The film’s phenomenal success at the time (earning eight million dollars on its initial release and winning a full-size Oscar statuette and seven miniature ones) signaled the beginning of a golden age of animation and a rising influence of the Disney movies, brand, and theme parks.

  • Faith Filled Family Films Tangled
    Faith Filled Family Films Tangled Tangled is the retelling of the beloved fairy tale, Rapunzel. As a baby, Rapunzel was captured by an old hag named Mother Gothel. The greedy Mother Gothel keeps Rapunzel sequestered away for the magical power of her golden hair which has the gift of providing eternal youth. When she turns 18, Rapunzel becomes curious about the outside world, and when Flynn Rider, a thief, uses her tower as a refuge, she asks him to help her escape. Opening Scripture Verse—James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect present comes from heaven; it comes down from God, the Creator of the heavenly lights, who does not change or cause darkness from turning. Movie Connection The movie begins with a drop falling from Heaven which is the source of Rapunzel’s magical hair. Spiritual Themes The source of life and beauty comes from Heaven Love unlocks the power within Rapunzel just as Christ’s love transforms us Sometimes love requires sacrifice Family Conversations What gifts have we received from God? What can we do in our family to better show love for one another? Rapunzel showed mercy when she reached out to save Mother Gothel—how can we show forgiveness and mercy to each other? Faith Filled Family Films Mighty Macs Mighty Macs is based on the true story of the basketball team from a tiny women’s college that appeared in three national championships in the early 1970’s. Now called Immaculate University, this Catholic school is proud to be considered the birthplace of modern American women’s basketball.

    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. III, Issue 2/ May 2015 Impact Factor: 3.4546 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org A Feminist Study of Tangled MUBEEN KHALID Lahore College for Women University Lahore, Pakistan Abstract: Fairytales and its Disney adaptations have always been popular among the young audience. But they are not as simple as they look. The present study attempts to show how classical fairy tales and their Disney adaptations manifest gender inequality by featuring submissive heroines, masculine heroes, and evil witches. The study then suggests how feminine beauty ideal, sexism, marriage, and binary opposition are dominant themes in these adaptations. However, Tangled deviates from this criterion of gender inequality and disrupts the existence of sexism and binary oppositions by giving more independent roles to both the male and female characters. The study concludes with the opinion that while the previous Disney films are stereotypical, Tangled has enhanced its characterization by depicting ambitious heroine, dynamic hero, and the peculiar antagonist who has both positive and negative traits. Key words: Feminism, Sexism, Binary Opposition, Gender Stereotypes, Feminine Beauty Ideal “Prince Charming, Prince Charming,” Rapunzel replied, “I have no intention of being your bride. We will not get married. We will not elope. I’ve cut off my hair and I’ve braided a rope. (Nesbitt 2009, 127) With the immense popularity of fairytales and its Disney adaptations, many questions are arising about the 1833 Mubeen Khalid- A Feminist Study of Tangled representation of gender roles and stereotypes that Disney films are inflicting in young children.

In fact, Pew Research Center finds, one-third of parents are concerned about their child’s technology use (Duggan, Lenhart, Lampe, & Ellison, 2015). As technology continues to evolve, children become more exposed to media on a mass scale. Consequently, there are a variety of implications for their growth as productive members of society. For example, many parents are both supportive and wary of their child’s technology use because of the exposure to potentially inappropriate content as well as the lack of control they have within the realm of the internet (Duggan et al., 2015).
