Alicia Keys blasts the Snow White classic cartoon as sexist.

Alicia Keys explains that Snow White classic cartoon is sexist. Keys states she does not allow her sons to watch the film.
Does no one realize that Snow White is cleaning for seven dwarfs?
That Snow White is being exploited by dwarfs?

Does the PU site allow this kind of exploitation to take place?
Should PU boycott Disney for unfair and demeaning images of young women?

Alicia Keys Blasts Disney’s ‘Snow White’: ‘Totally Sexist, Misogynistic — She’s Cleaning For Seven Dwarfs’

By Brent Furdyk. 3 hours ago



Walt Disney’s 1937 “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” is considered a groundbreaking, trailblazing animated classic, but Alicia Keys admits she’s no fan of the film — and refuses to let her sons watch it.

“I feel like it’s by design that I’m raising boys, like there’s a reason. I really feel that,” she says in a new interview with The Edit. “They say that every child learns from their mother – it’s ingrained from babyhood. Have you watched ‘Snow White’ lately? I get real funky about the classics; I don’t like [my sons] watching it. It’s totally sexist, misogynistic — she’s cleaning for seven dwarfs.”

As the “Voice” coach sees it it’s not the fact that Snow White stays in the house and cooks and cleans for the septet of dwarfs, but the message it sends.

“There’s nothing wrong with a woman who chooses to stay at home with her family, it’s a hard-ass job,” she explains, “but it’s the way it’s spoken about.”

Vote for Trump.
Let's make America great again.

Watching the debates, I've come to realize that US politics are screwed.
Trump is a bigot.
Clinton is a liar.
Who's the better choice?
We're going to get screwed either way. As usual.
JMHO.

Eh, she's not wrong.

Plus it is hardly the best of the Disney movies. Though I do like the Tom Waits' version of the dwarves' "Heigh-ho" song.

They are products of their time. Dumbo was hellah racist. Even the Lion King was kinda racist (the jackals were pretty obviously black caricatures). I like the Little Mermaid, but even that has problems. Probably Tangled is the only one without significant issues.

Clinton is by far and away the better choice.

Firstly: Who doesn't lie from time to time?

Secondly: All politicians lie by the nature of their job. We need them to, to some degree.

Thirdly: The fucking email thing is more that she is an absurd luddite and her staff (and our government in general) are disturbingly incompetent. Listen to this segment on This American Life to hear about how Hillary can't use a desktop computer, doesn't want to carry two phones (which is what everyone else in Washington does), and needs her staff to buy old phones on eBay just so she can check and respond to her email without having to learn a new phone. In short, she's a grandma that never learned to use that interwebs thing.

Lastly: Say what you want about her husband, Hillary isn't a sexual predator, an unapologetic bigot, and a uninformed blowhard that likes to pretend to be in the "Billionaires Club". She is, however, a talented civil rights lawyer, an experienced Senator, a former Secretary of the State, and a first-hand witness to two presidencies. "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!"

Your link leads to: The page you requested was not found.

A direct link to the YouTube page with the Tom Waits song is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71gI8xMfJO0

(There are several copies/versions of the Tom Waits song at YouTube.)

As far as Hilary Clinton, my personal opinion, is that many politicians are professional liars. It just goes with the territory.

Harry Truman is one of the few politicians I can respect.
He was not in the game to make a personal fortune, but to do the best job he could for the people.

I don't touch politics...

But since Tom Waits name came up, you all should check out this band from Kansas that cover Tom's "Make it Rain". We saw them a few weeks ago. Absolutely was floored by the singer's energy and charisma, kind of makes me sick that they'll probably never get any kind of mainstream coverage. Name is The Midnight Ghost Train. I was very impressed for an obvious metal band to make such a good cover of a Tom Waits song.

Not sure what happened there, the forum was trying to treat the link like it was on the PornUsers.com url, very odd. I think it is fixed now, but as you said, there are a number of versions of Wait's performance on YouTube, I just picked the first one Google suggested.

Truman was a good guy, no doubt.

My main point was that there is a big difference between Hillary and Donald. That said, I was a Bernie guy. I knew he wouldn't make it, but he made it closer than I would've guessed. I would've loved to see that old Socialist running my country. Maybe there is a younger Bernie clone out there somewhere... "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!"

That's awesome! I'll have to look into them more. Thanks for the tip!

If you are a big Tom Waits fan, I highly recommend checking out Ben Caplan if you haven't yet. He's a Canadian singer/songwriter that is certainly influenced by Waits, but is very much doing his own thing. My brother got to see him live and said he was amazing. Here is his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/bencaplanmusic "I'm not a number, I'm a free man!"
