For not the first decade, the cartoons of Disney studio have been accused of seducing children, and articles with collections of vulgar and erotic scenes from cult animation paintings are spreading on the network. We checked some statements from the collections for reliability.
Rumors that Disney cartoons have “subconscious sexual messages” for children have been going on at least since the 1990s. So, in 1995, the conservative Christian organization “The American League of Life” invited its followers to boycott the studio. This was replicated by the media, and as a result, a resident of Arkansas even Submitted To the court against The Walt Disney Company and Buena Vista Home Video. She claimed that the cartoons have a clear sexual message. Only a couple of months later, she abandoned the lawsuit.
And now on the Internet you can find many articles with approximately such headlines: "Piquant moments of Disney cartoons, where children need to close their eyes", "Unknown Walt Disney", "13 indecent scenes from Disney cartoons that you have not noticed before". Typically, these collections include old facts (for example, a word hidden in the sky from “King Leo” or “Hidden Messages” from “Aladdin”), and relatively modern. We tried to take away only those of them that seemed to us not ambiguous, but quite specific.
1. Is it true that in the cartoon "The Little Mermaid" (1989) showed an erection of the priest?

The cartoon has a wedding scene in which a disguised Ursula marries the enchanted Prince Eric. When the bride and groom approach the priest in the clothes of the bishop, on the frames on the side you can see a kind of bulge that some people took for an erection. However, if you look at the scene further, you can notice another frame that explains everything: in fact, the bulge is knees sticking out from under a long tunic.
At the "bulge" and knees can be viewed in the video below (the corresponding points at 0:20 and 0:46).

Former Disney animator Tom Sito, who created the character and painted that scene, also confirmedthat these were knees. He added: “The joke was that it is small in stature and stands on the ladder, and the mantle of the clergyman hangs, completely hiding his body. And people just see what they want to see. ”
As a result, the scene was edited, making the priest's knees flat, so that in the new version nothing is bulging.

Not true
2. Is it true that in the cartoon "Peter Pan" (1953) showed a shadow in the form of a penis?

According to the plot, Peter lost his shadow, so he had to chase after her. As a result, he caught her and in one of the scenes checked whether she was “sitting” on it correctly. A frame walks on the network from the moment, which shows how something sticks out between the legs. In one article even set The question: “Interestingly, did the animators know that the shadow from the hem of Peter Pan's shirt would look so gone?”
Well, we answer: "The animators did not know that the shadow would look like, because it was not a real frame." In fact, nothing sticks out between the legs in the original, and the articles use an edited image from the 2013 humorous collection from the site Cracked.com Under the name "17 Easter Eastern Racings R, which you have never noticed in Disney."
Below the scene from the cartoon (the right moment at 3:50).

3. Is it true that in the cartoon "King Leo" (1994) they showed the word SEX?

One of the most common rumors about the sexual subtext in Disney is the presence of the word SEX in the “King of Leo”. There is a scene when an adult Simba fell to the ground and dust, leaves and flowers that formed letters in the sky rose into the air. Some of the spectators saw SEX there.
But, according to the animator of this, a sieve, there was no sexual message in the stage. According to him words, there they simply paid tribute to the special effects department: “Sex is not written there. It says "Special Effects. - Approx. Ed.) - this is SFX." In the subsequent publications of the cartoon, the scene was edited so that the whirlwinds of dust did not form any letters.
You can look at different options in the video below.

4. Is it true that in the cartoon "Alice in Wonderland" (1951) they showed a hole in the form of a vagina?

The cartoon is based on the works of Lewis Carroll about a girl who failed in a rabbit hole. The author of one of the collections claims: “Many believe that the hole of the rabbit hole resembles something else. Perhaps people just have an unhealthy fantasy, but look carefully at the image. Surely women will understand what we are talking about faster! "
Only this is again a fake frame - it is from the same humorous selection from the site Cracked.com. The original was a regular hole.

5. Is it true that in the cartoon "Aladdin" (1992) of teenagers was asked to take off their clothes?
This myth is not the most relevant for the Russian audience, since our cartoon is most often broadcast in dubbing, but sometimes it falls into collections. There is a scene in the picture when Aladdin unsuccessfully tries to drive away Tiger Rajo from himself. And at the time of the arrival, Jasmine, according to some spectators, sounds approximately such a strange phrase: “Good Teenagers Take Off your Clothes”. This translates something like this: "Glorious teenagers, undress."
By script Aladdin was supposed to say only this: “Good cat, leave me alone” (“Good Kitty, Take Off”). But, according to the director comments, the phrase was lengthened by an impromptu to add a couple of seconds of background sound. As a result, it turned out like this: “A good tiger. Leave me alone. Scum. Go away! " ("Good Tiger." Take Off. Scat. Go! ").
And Tom Sito Specked About the myth like this: "Two animators who made this episode are both very religious guys ... Such humor is not in their style."

Having examined them, you can slightly perceive the phrase that all their kingdom is what the sun's rays fall on. ” This refers to the story of Mufasa Simbe about the size of their kingdom. Indeed, in the image you can notice that there are like nipples on the tops.
But in front of us is again a fake frame from the site Cracked.com. In the original, the zaza flew past the usual hills in the scene of the performance of the song "I would quickly become a king."
In the attached video, the moment can be seen at 0:50 mark.

In the episode “Pupil of the sorcerer”, based on the poem of Goethe and the symphonic poem of Dyuk Paul with the same name, the main character was Mickey Mouse. If you believe the authors of the collections, then there are shots with a constellation resembling female breasts. But the problem is that there is no such frame at all.

At the same time, how Reported The company, on the first version of the cassettes there was no this photo, because another negative was used to create it.

And the new leadership did not know about that photo and used the original negative of 1977 in the reprint.
