Parents Beware: Shrek 2 Features Transgenderism and Crossdressing Themes

Summary: The DreamWorks' animated film, "Shrek 2," is billed as harmless entertainment but contains subtle sexual messages.

Parents who are thinking about taking their children to see "Shrek 2", may wish to consider the following: The movie features a male-to-female transgender (in transition) as an evil bartender. The character has a five o'clock shadow, wears a dress and has female breasts. It is clear that he is a she-male. His voice is that of talk show host Larry King.

During a dance scene at the end of the movie, this transgendered man expresses sexual desire for Prince Charming, jumps on him, and both tumble to the floor.

In another scene in the movie, Shrek and Donkey need to be rescued from a dungeon where they are chained against the wall. The rescue is conducted by pinnochio who is asked to lie so his nose will grow long enough for one of the smaller cartoon characters to use it as a bridge to reach Shrek and Donkey. Donkey encourages him to lie about something and suggetsts he lie about wearing women's underwear. When he denies wearing women's underwear, his nose begins to grow.

An earlier scene in the movie features a wolf dressed in grandma's clothing and reading a book when Prince Charming encounters him. Later, one of the characters refers to the wolf's gender confusion.

TVC's report "A gender Identity Disorder Goes Mainstream" explains the transgender agenda and the effort to deconstruct the biological reality of male and female. DreamWorks is helping in this effort by promoting cross dressing and transgenderism in this animated film.

So given that the bartender was not a cross-dresser but rather an extremely ugly woman

*rolls eyes*

"If my hypothetical kids decide to have sex change operations after seeing this movie then I am hypothetically doing a rotten job of raising them."

Wouldn't it be better to a) try to help keep the kids as good as possible and not corrupt them and b) thus avoid such garbage that would corrupt them?

Or are you 1 who would say to the kids, "you shouldn't have sex, but if you do....here's a condom"?

[Xenalyte]

I don't have kids, so I'm not really in the market for kids' movies, but I occasionally will rent one if the hype is big enough. I thought the first Harry Potter movie was good fun; had it come out when I was a lad, I may have seen it several times. I hope there's no silly objection based on matters of occult themes or other nonsense.

Oh, dear God. You are so lucky, to have missed the rabid foamings of the anti-Potter crowd. Harry is the devil, after all, y'know.

[Stew Padasso]

Oh please. And where were these idiots when Bugs Bunny was dressing up as a woman and leaving big red lipstick on Elmer Fudd's forehead?

[the OlLine Rebel]

It doesn't mean he doesn't have a right to try to inform them. That is NOT "parenting some1 else's child".

[Xenalyte]

You mean "Hook"? That was an abomination to us Barrie-lovers! Ugh!

[the OlLine Rebel]

True, that was over the line. But so were the mocking, snide posts questioning any of our sanity, "fun factor", or intelligence. Which came before any of that, frankly, to put it in more perspective.

[Xenalyte]

Boys or even men wearing mens underewear is sick behavior..behavior that needs help to be gotten rid of.

Gunner, Bacon, you heard the man. Off with your boxers or briefs or whatever! Wearing men's undies is sick behavior.

[Xenalyte]

Yes I wear underwear, though probably not the gender-confused kind that you wear.

That is sick and you need help.

[antivenom]

Yoko Ono...great song...

[the OlLine Rebel]

I cannot believe how this escapes people that it's not good to deliberately expose children to bad behavior. *sigh* I can't believe the big difference between truly innocent children's shows and not-so-innocent escapes them. Wolves in sheep's clothing. It must be too fine a line to perceive! But the truth remains - there is a line!

[Xenalyte]

To see gender-confused underwear, click here.

[Xenalyte]

I'll go you one better. I bet you have on women's underwear RIGHT THIS SECOND, you sick sick woman, you. ;)

[Ichneumon]

And that's the real sad thing - there IS no innocent kid's movie.

Okay, I'll bite -- what "non-innocent" parts did I miss in "Finding Nemo" and "The Iron Giant"?

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

So did Bugs Bunny in the old WB cartoons.... people that like to believe crap like this should go dig a cave and live in it so that they wont be brainwashed by (** insert insane tin foil hat conspiracy here***)

Silly wabbbiittttt

[sinkspur]

My oldest daughter has been begging to see this, but no way will she

Fuddy-duddy.

[Xenalyte]

Suppose I baked up some nice chocolaty brownies with just a dash of dog crap mixed in. Would anyone feed it to their children?

How are you gonna make my children eat it? It's my job as a parent to make sure you don't.

[dread78645]

I want a tinfoil corset! The leather one is just too hot for these humid Houston summers.

jpeg ?

[Bacon Man]

Gunner, Bacon, you heard the man. Off with your boxers or briefs or whatever! Wearing men's undies is sick behavior.

WAY ahead of you!

[Xenalyte]

I wouldn't let her watch this any more than I would let her the read the children's book King and King. It is to say this person's life is harmless and acceptable.

So reading about something constitutes acceptance of it?

How do you suppose my entire political science class managed to get through "The Communist Manifesto" without turning pinko?
