There's a good chance that much of this blog can be triggering in terms of fat-hate and fat shaming, racism, homophobia, misogyny, and other oppressive bullshit. Be warned. Be careful.Calling these films out does not mean I don't actually LOVE some of them.

Love Always, Santa : Randy calls Celia “babe” after she asks him several times not to. There are repeated “jokes” about how women are lesser. The main character is told not to “act like an 8th grade girl” but to “be a man”. This type of sexism is a constant threat through an otherwise sweet film.

Window Wonderland has an entirely white (or nearly entirely white) cast even while being set in New York City and the male lead pulls the “you look better without make-up” BS.

A Very Merry Mix-Up has an entirely white cast–though it’s set in New York City (among other places).

In The Nine Lives Of Christmas, the main character and her friend discuss being fat as if it were a terrible/shameful thing.

In Christmas In The City… Only a white person could have thought it’d be okay to have a white character say “Christmas is changing hues around here.” in regard to the actions of a newly hired WOC. Granted, they were talking about the fact that she painted the store’s Christmas trees, Queen of Hearts-style, from green to pink…and she is the antagonist…but still…. Only a white person could not see how fucked up that is.

In Christmas Do-Over… A “girl” toy is given to the son in the film and it’s made fun of for being a “girl” toy…it’s an oven. To the best of my recollection, ovens can be used by every gender, but hey. And even if it were a “girl” toy, why is that a bad thing? Oh yeah, it isn’t. The ex-husband is shamed many times for eating and possibly getting fatter.

In Mickey’s Twice Upon a Christmas, one of the reindeer is made fun of for “not being tiny” like in the poem.

Much of The Real St. Nick takes place in a psychiatric institution… Part of the time, I feel like they make the jokes on people who mistreat folks with mental illnesses. But a lot of the time it seems as though the jokes they make are ON/ABOUT the patients and folks with mental illnesses…or at least about the illnesses themselves.
