Illustrator TT Bret of 'Let There Be Doodles' created these revealing images of gender-swapped [Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1) characters. The images feature classic scenes from Disney films, but the gender roles have been reversed.

The simple concept of gender-swapped Disney characters seems quirky and comical, however the images are quite bold. They directly address society's views on [gender inequality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/underpaid-women). For example, the Hunchback of Notre Dame would be even more ostracized as a woman.

Other images show Genie from Aladdin as an oversized female and Snow White as a charming animal lover. The image of Snow White eludes to the fact that the movie would be more like a reenactment of a frat house. One man living with seven women allows society's mind to wander a bit further than the original story.
