Actress Kristen Bell, who played the voice of Anna in Disney’s “Frozen,” argued there are plots points in the 1930s classic “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” that could be problematic for young children.
Mrs. Bell, who has two young daughters with her husband, actor Dax Shepard, told Parents magazine that she points out those problems every time she reads the book with her children.
“Don’t you think that it’s weird that the prince kisses Snow White without her permission?” she said she asks her daughters. “Because you can not kiss someone if they’re sleeping!”
Ms. Bell, who is working on a children’s book herself, also takes issue with Snow White accepting food from strangers.
“Every time we close Snow White I look at my girls and ask, ‘Don’t you think it’s weird that Snow White didn’t ask the old witch why she needed to eat the apple? Or where she got that apple?’” she said.
“I say, ‘I would never take food from a stranger, would you?’ And my kids are like, ‘No!’ And I’m like, ‘OK, I’m doing something right.’”
Mrs. Bell is the second actress to speak out against Disney classics this week. On “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” Keira Knightley said she won’t let her 3-year-old daughter watch “Cinderella” or “The Little Mermaid.”
“Cinderella, banned, because, you know, she waits around for a rich guy to rescue her,” she said. And women should never “give your voice up for a man,” she said of “The Little Mermaid.”

I wonder if there is some point at which ordinary people will start to realize these people are not too bright.
Hey, Disney made her do it.
Right now if I were still in business I would NEVER hire a female.
I would tell them that the position is already taken if they applied.
Last thing needed in a business is drama.
Satire-y.
OK ,just let her Rot

Little white men raping Mother Earth is sexists and bigoted against little persons.
Stupidest thing I ever heard. If a man needs to ask a woman for permission to kiss her, it takes away the romantic mood.
Where we’re going with the likes of Bell, what man in his right mind would pursue a relationship much less than get married?
Sexual correctness is also evil,too.

I guess if Kristin Bell ever stops breathing and is unconscious, she will just have to die, because she won’t be able to give permission for artificial respiration.
Lemme guess. If a man kissed a man without permission? She’d be gushing.
Liberal Hollywood is stupid.
Then again, I don’t view celebrities as role models or seek advice from them.
Better that she live the rest of her life in a coma? What’s to become of CPR in this brave new world?

B. Lighten up and have fun. Read w/o policing every single story ever written.
C. Believe that surprises can be a good thing too, not always life altering in the negative.
