I remember comments about Pocahontas regarding history, and have seen some complaints about how Mulan represents Chinese society (both being valid complaints) but I've never really seen anyone complain about Pocahontas, Mulan, Esmeralda or Jasmine (and I feel Nala should be included here, too) in terms of being suitable heroines for young girls, and I get the impression that that's part of the concern here.
I've built up a resistance to Hannah Montana. I blame the scene I accidentally watched where Lilly sees a gossip rag with a photoshopped Miley as a boy and says she makes a hot boy, and miley says she'd date Lilly if she were a boy. Like Suite Life of Zack and Cody, it makes me go "But Disney! Are you deliberately implying half your heroines are closet lesbians? I must watch more and find out!"
