You know those days when you haven't gotten much sleep and can't quite shake off the blues and you're running on coffee and so you see something and suddenly the entire world is hilarious?
... Yeah. That's my day.
On the other hand, having four hours of Chinese actually isn't as bad as I thought it'd be. Our textbooks are intimidating. It's like

Well, she lost it to Mickey, of course. She was a shy and innocent little mouse until she met Prince Mickey. After an adventure involving some witches, a kidnapping and Mickey saving the day, they decided that they were madly in love, and thus they got married. She lost her virginity consummating that marriage, but it was really sweet and sappy and Disney-esque, with people cheering everywhere and fireworks or something. (Not that they were WATCHING, but like, it was what was happening in the background. Yeah.)

Throwback to old!Disney in general, m'dear. :P Disney where all the chicks were useless and were victimized by wicked witches and whatnot.

Hmm, even back in the old days, Minnie wasn't nearly as helpless as the princesses. Personally, I think Disney chicks still are helpless ninnies, but now with GRRL power. See Megara for example. Despite all her "independent woman"-ness, she gets caught in Hades' traps and Hercules has to rescue her at the end cuz she's too physically weak to help herself. But it's all okay cuz Hercules gives up his immoretality to be with her. Or at least that's what Disney wants you to think.

Wasn't she? I always thought b+w Minnie was a little like Olive Oyl. Then again, I've never seen b+w Minnie so what would I know.
I totally agree with you, dude. It's the same case with Jane (Tarzan), even. She doesn't SEEM like the typical damsel in distress 'cause she has tons of strong personality, but she constantly has to be saved by Tarzan. Jasmine does a bit of saving sometimes in the series, but she's usually the one being saved too. It bugs me sometimes. I don't want a sobbing, useless man, but I wouldn't mind seeing a guy being saved by a chick sometimes.

Yeah, I think b&w Minnie was more of a pushover. She was always "Mickey, I'm going shopping for a new bow! Meet you at dinner!" And then Mickey gets into a hilarious adventure trying to buy her flowers and get to dinner on time.
Jasmine saved people? I don't remember that. I just remember that Jafar put her in a sleazy outfit when he "wished" her into a sex slave. I know I have an obsession with Belle, but she's the only one I can think of that wasn't really "saved". Beast was her tormentor as much as her "savior".
