Likes watching classic Disney movies? (Sorry for all the "is it weird if a guy..." questions. I am just using this stuff to try and figure out who the heck I am).

I think it's weird when anyone likes Disney movies. I always thought they were depressing. I never got the appeal. When I was about 11 I went to Disney World, really don't remember anything. However, I thought SeaWorld was the best thing ever. I even got to pet a penguin. If I was in your house and you and pictures of Tinkerbell, or whoever, on your wall I would think you were gay. Is it weird? Yeah, I think so. Why should you care if I think it's weird? My dislikes don't have to be yours. I' m not sure how having people judge your liking of Disney helps you figure out who you are, but good luck with that.

Nope Im working on collecting my favs. I  tell people that I want to have them for my kids someday. Dont get me wrong i love watching them, aladdin is my all time fav. I think that its just connecting with your child hood self. My dad and me sometimes have whole conversations about them, everyone has to act like a kid now and then otherwise we end up old and depressed with nothing to do but read the paper( my mom) ;D

I dont have a only kid section in my dvd bookcase tho I have tons of movies. at last count there was 320 somthin, we didnt have satilite for a while so we went crazy with the movies. pick up a new one once or twice a week. Yeah my girlfriend thought it was odd when I told her I wanted to start collecting my favs. but now she is in on it and she has added her favs to the list too. she thinks its a great idea couse who knows if we will like the movies released when we have kids.

Is it weird to like them?  Not really.  Is it weird when you rave to all your buds how much you love them?  Yeah.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

Nah, last week a friend of mine and I realized we both knew Aladdin by heart.  It was kind of sad, actually.  ::)
Oh I'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love

Well, if it is weird, take comfort that me and my best friend are weird along with you.
We watch Fantasia at least once a month. And my girlfriend still has original VHS copies of the movies we all grew up with, so we watch em from time to time.

Who you are is who you are, and nothing you do, nothing you like has any impact on your gender identity. Period.

"Is it weird if a guy" questions can be helpful for sort of testing out safety issues and understanding social norms, but I suspect you're already aware of the social norms. You're just wondering if your likes and interests somehow validate/invalidate your maleness. They don't.

Even if you liked dressing up as a Disney princess and singing "Under the Sea" to your Barbie collection while you hand-sewed little Barbie princess outfits, that wouldn't make you not a guy. (It would, however, be something you probably wouldn't want to display in public while presenting male, if you don't like getting gay-bashed.)

Hey, I work with a woman in her 40's who collects "Mr Potato Heads"!  She has hundreds of the things.
So who cares.

It depends on the movie itself doesn't it? There are some hardcore 'male oriented' Disney movies like Tron or Sword in the Stone. There's also Atlantis, Alladin, and Hercules. The screenplay for Alladin was written by the same guys who wrote Pirates of the Caribbean [and you can tell] and no one will give you heat for watching that.

But even if they did, would it even matter?
