Dianavan get a grip hon! They're called fairy tales for a reason! Except for the WWII training films and shorts you don't see the characters running around with guns killing people, doing drugs, raping women, etc.
Films like Bambi have to be viewed in a historical context. Sure Bambi's dad said it was man's work. Back then that's the way it was. Nowadays you have things like Kim Possible (super smart, super capable young lady hero, fighting the evil idiot male Dr. Dracken with her naive and not so smart, not so capable sidekick Ron Stoppable. Didn't you see Beauty and the Beast where the Macho hunk hunter was portrayed as an ignorant, manipulative, blackmailing fool who destroyed all that he couldn't posess?
You've come a long way Baby! From barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen to standing before a pile of naked Iraqis with a big grin and a thumbs up!
