(Warning: scratch the surface of Disney films, and there can be some very dark things underneath, so this post discusses: forced marriage, including to underage girls; murder; the fur industry; genocide.
There may also be SPOILERS for Disney films.)
Think of a Disney villain - there are a few great ones, right?
And I'm sure that we all have our faves, our least faves, our problematic faves.
And a Disney villain, at least traditionally in their animated movies, is as cut-and-dry good-vs-evil as you can get.
But I've noticed something lately - the motivations of Disney's female villains are a lot different to the male ones.
Quick Note: Yes, I'm using male and female as gendered terms synonymous with men and women, on account of social and practical interchangeability.
