Which is why I dont bother on these issues. People get defensive and name call and cannot discuss respectfully. ....and Jet your point was completely valid and I totally agree. Young children today...let them be children...it must be so confusing for them. |

My point is, it can be turned off but shouldn't be removed as sone parent's will feel it is an education opportunity to discuss trans issues with their children. Where is the harm? Do we ban Emmerdale as Matty is trans and has discussed issues of gender realignment as that might be confusing as why does a man have breasts? Emmerdale is on pre watershed when most kids at watching tv?

That we are even talking about Disney and politics in the same breath suggests
that damage has already been done. Disney’s brand has always rested on its universality. When people watch Encanto or visit Disney World, it’s not because they want to signal something about their political identity but because they want to laugh, sigh, scream or weep. Disney is not meant to be a participant in the culture wars; it is meant to be a refuge from them. https://www.newstatesman.com/quickfi...oke-capitalism |

Sorry, but if an adult refuses to watch a show because it talks about periods for a little bit then they just need to grow up

When I was a kid, everyone read Judy Bloom books, one of them was about periods. Literally every girl I knew read it. Its a fact of life so while you may not find it interesting doesn't mean some won't find it interesting /educational.

Everyone is talking about the Trans character, but ignoring that Disney thinks that buying sanitary products is an entertaining idea for an episode. To me personally I wouldn't ban the episode like some people are suggesting as I don't support censorship, but I do question why Disney thought that someone buying sanitary products for an episode is entertaining.

It's not made for adults. I don't get your point? It's not just schools. TV programmes can be fun but educationally. It's a multi-aspected approach that is needed. It's not just on schools to teach this. |

I just don't get why TV/Streamers seem to have lost the art form of entertainment.

I haven't seen the whole episode, but I very highly doubt it was a whole episode on periods. It just happened to contain a segment that did. How you can miss the point that this isn't aimed at adults so why would they find it entertaining? It's for children and it's a 1 minute clip |

And speaking for myself, when I was a kid I was into things like Spongebob, Phineas & Ferb, Sonic X, Grim Adventures Of Billy & Mandy, Horrid Henry & The Cramp Twins etc, none of them were busy trying to be uber realistic. Now think back to your favourite children's Shows, did you like any kids Show that was about sanitary products or did you like the kids shows that made you laugh and had fun watching?

Let's just put our heads in our laps and pretend that people don't have periods?
And then when the day comes that your child or children have them they can be really distressed because we didn't want to discuss it or see anything about it. Ohh, and let's just leave it down to the schools to educate them. Not our business. |

You say that, but some people think men can have periods and women can have penises

It's just Jet has to be prepared that there will be other people that will feel the same way on the other side of the debate.

Admittedly though less intimidating than an entire episode like our beloved Netflix would go for.

What child would want to watch an episode about Periods? In fact what adult would want to watch an episode about Periods? And that's when I said well it's not aimed at adults yet you keep going on about adults finding it entertaining and even asking who of us on here would...which just not relevant as it's a children's programme.... Well, this isn't realistic either...it's a robot asking for recommendations which as I kid I would probably have found funny. The role that children's TV plays has changed somewhat over the years. I feel they are able to add in educational aspects whilst still making it fun... Mr Tumble springs to mind.....the wombles ...I can't think but there's loads, the one where they explain how stuff works and lots of them include maths for example... You are taking something massively out of context to try and say it's not entertaining when all we have seen is a 1 minute clip in which they're in a supermarket buying some sanitary products |

Don't get me wrong it sounds better now that I know it's not an entire episode, but it's still one of those scenes that sounds like it'd be a really boring scene.
