I heard a lot about hidden sex scenes in Disney’s Cartoons.  
I have noticed one in the movie " The Little Mermaid." When Ursula is getting ready to marry Eric the preist gets and erection. I was wondering what this means or if this is meant as a joke.  
I’ve heard before in “the lion king” that leaves spell out that word “sex”  
I was wondering if any of this is true.

Wow, I don’t believe I get to be the first to debunk this. That isn’t an erection on the priest – it’s his _knee_. Cheez, you’ve got a dirty mind!

For more legends about Walt Disney, Disneyland and Disney movies, try:

> **[Does a Tent Hide Abandoned Skyway Steps in Disneyland?](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/disney-abandoned-attractions/)**
>
> Disney Parks fanatics might know all about the abandoned attractions, but it's likely that a majority of the park's guests have no idea about these steps.

While you’re there look around at some of the other legends – Snopes is a GREAT time-waster!

“Sex” in the clouds in _The Lion King_? Get real! You’re all missing the obvious! Does nobody notice that _none of the characters in that movie are wearing any clothes!_

FTR, when I went and looked at it on Snopes a while back, I came away thoroughly convinced–yes, I DOES look a little bit like the priest has a hard-on, and yes, it DOES look like “S-E-X” up in the sky for a minute.

I guess I’ve got a dirty mind, too. (P.S. Don’t miss the Aladdin phallus!)

🆒

This will actually be a Mailbag Answer in a few weeks.

Looking is in the eye of the beholder. I look at a Doris Day movie and see her eating a banana. Someone else looks at Doris eating that banana and sees something QUITE else in it.
