Ali Wachutka report on sexism in Disney

Disney films do not directly tell the original stories created for example prince charming did not kiss snow white to wake her up, the apple came out her throat on its own before she swallowed it. According to Ali Wachutka report on Disney and sexism Disney evidently distorts the original stories to create clear gender roles. The sexism is not as apparent to the target audience. However it is still prevalent within the films it just concealed beneath tradition fairytales and stories. Sexist messages presented in Disney films shows young girls that they are expected to fill a submissive role in society that are shaped by their male counterparts.
