What Disney movies are REALLY saying

Where was this version of Disney when I was growing up? Learning this would have definitely made life a whole lot easier!


Why was it hidden from me and instead I internalised some psychologically seriously harmful stories:
1) Aladdin the charming and exotic globetrotter/tourguide? - check!
2) Sleeping Beauty the deluded visionary, who is completely happy with falling in love once upon a dream and when she actually meets the Prince she runs away -check! (But worry not my friend, he runs after her! - not checked).
3) Snow White, the slightly obsessive character who falls in love at first sight with the prince and then never sees him again, but keeps obsessing that he is THE one - check! (She is right of course, as he manages to save her life and marry her in one go - not checked).
