What Happens Next: A Gallimaufry

It’s 2am and I just this second realised that the reason so many Disney princesses have male animal companions is because it gives them someone to talk to who isn’t a female friend (and thus another female character), but who doesn’t act as a rival for the male love interest. If you replaced every talking male animal in Disney with a human girl, those films would look really different.
