Walt Disney Presents: The Menstruation Story

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

I have a love/hate relationship with Disney. I’ve been to Disneyland on four occasions, most recently last January, but I don’t consider myself a Disney fan.It’s a strange contradiction, I know, but I think my fascination is with Walt Disney the man as opposed to Mickey Mouse and his minions. I main bit of interest with Walt is how he created an empire based upon fantasy and yet there were skeletons in his closet (like the rumor that he was an Anti-Semite) or his tendency to produce propaganda and documentaries. I realize that the guy was trying to help out but it just seems kinda creepy that he produced The Menstruation Story in 1946. I really have nothing more to offer on this matter besides the aforementioned creepy feeling.
