If you watch The Lion King closely you will see many sexual references throughout it. When the adult Simba collapses on the cliff and brushes something over the edge, it swirls up into the sky and spells out sex. This seems strange that Disney would put this in a kids movie. Another time you can see it is if you watch the wildebeast running down the canyon, after the stampeed, the dust it kicks up settles to form the word "sex".
Why is Disney repeatedly showing the word "sex" in their childrens movie. It seems like this is a betrayal of trust to the comsumers. Parents buy Disney movies because they trust that the movies are child apropriate. Really though, I just wonder why they do it.
Hidden sex references in the Lion King, is Disney trying to say something?

That sort of thing isn't done by Disney itself, but by the artists involved. When things have been brought up (like a tower on the cover of The Little Mermaid that looked like a penis), the Disney company has ordered the mistake corrected and discontinued release of the previous version. With The Little Mermaid, for example, if you purchase a copy of the movie from stores today, it will not have the infamous penis-tower.
It's usually just a bit of fun the artists do, and they make sure it's something kids won't notice (and they do a good job of that because when I was a kid, I didn't notice any of the little sexual things they popped into the movies here and there). And when they are brought up by parents, Disney fixes it.

I heard that it actually says SFX.
if you google it there are some other refrences to other movies. I say who cares. Children dont stare at the dust in the movies only adults take the time to analyze movies like that. The child is into to simba not some leaves.
Peace!

ITs a form of brainwashing the next generation. If they see sex enough, they will do it on impulse. It goes into the subconcious. About the wildebeast, does it show up after the last wildebeast?

Here`s `sex` scene in question. I think if people look hard enough, they`ll find sex in anything. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjKyYacAtVc
