Our pop culture fascination with all things Disney shifts momentarily from cataloguing hidden phallic film images to visualizing Disney princes in their birthday suits.
Gawker Media’s Jezebel, a pop culture women’s website known for solid writing with more than a slightly irreverent bent has taken Disney fandom in a brand new direction with a piece on what they label “Prince Peen:”
The Jezebel staff put a lot of thought into this (perhaps too much?) and collectively came up with nudity descriptions of the male characters from Disney’s animated feature films—including dick length, girth, tone, veins, pubes itch, etc.—that we felt reflected their personalities. We then passed those specifications on to Gawker Media staff illustrator Tara Jacoby who turned our visions of Disney dicks into actual erotic portraiture.
Not one to quibble with or stand in the way of any woman’s “reimagining” of any animated character’s weinerhood, be it Prince Charming, Gumby, Roger Ramjet or The Pink Panther, I applaud the article’s brazen attempt to stir up a bit of good ole Internet commentary trouble. While even the most benign posts bring netizens to the point of digital fisticuffs these days, speculating about the penis size and shape of leading men from iconic Disney animated feature films is sure to get a rise out of people.
Sorry. Had to get one shot in there.
You can find the Jezebel piece (along with many other "pieces" - sorry, more apologies) here.
