Even Disney Has Pervs
John Lasseter, one of the biggest names in animation, is taking a leave of absence from Disney following what he called "missteps."
In an internal memo sent to Disney employees obtained by CNN, Lasseter, who is the chief creative officer of Pixar and Disney Animation, said that he recently had "a number of difficult conversations that have been very painful for me."
"It's never easy to face your missteps, but it's the only way to learn from them. As a result, I've been giving a lot of thought to the leader I am today compared to the mentor, advocate and champion I want to be. It's been brought to my attention that I have made some of you feel disrespected or uncomfortable. That was never my intent," he wrote.
Lasseter added that he wanted apologize to "anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of an unwanted hug or any other gesture they felt crossed the line in any way, shape, or form."
"No matter how benign my intent, everyone has the right to set their own boundaries and have them respected," he added

I'll never view Mickey Mouse the same 
. Although, the Cinderella they had at Disneyworld when I was 18 could have gotten away with copping a feel 
. Of course, that was 1977 and no one would have given a rat's ass anyway.
