Tinkerbell is the picture of innocence that Disney loved to illustrate in his films

The past three decades have been a time of rapid and near wholesale change in western culture. Innocence is a thing of the past – some would say with innocence has gone “class” and “respect”, but I’m neither nihilistic nor sanctimoniuos enough to buy that argument – and with the loss of innocence comes a desire to subvert those leftover markers of innocence that are still prevalent in modern culture.

Which brings us to the notion of the adult tinkerbell costume. Tinkerbell, as most people remember her, was the pint sized fairy from the Peter Pan movie who could sprinkle pixie dust on certain people or animals to make the fall asleep, or in certain instances, even do her bidding. Tinkerbell is the picture of innocence that Disney loved to illustrate in his films, so that makes an adult tinkerbell costume completely ripe for subverting the whole notion of Disney’s wholesome, innocent world.

The irony is that Tinkerbell herself, in the film, isn’t exactly the most innocent or wholesome character. She’s actually rather jealous, vain and self-centered. And she wears a very, very short skirt. Take this excerpt from exampleessays.com:
Tinker Bell Deluxe Adult Costume

In 1953, Disney released the classic cartoon tale Peter Pan. The movie has become a staple in American children’s film. Despite what one might think, Peter Pan contains blatant sexual stereotypes and constantly portrays females as conniving and jealous.

Tinker Bell’s jealousy of Peter and Wendy’s friendship portrays the most obvious case of jealousy in Peter Pan. Throughout the movie, whenever a third party mentions Wendy, Tinker Bell turns crimson red and gets infuriated at just the thought of her. Even before Tinker Bell meets Wendy, she gets agitated at just the sight of Peter talking to her. During the scene where Peter is first introduced to the audience, Wendy tries to give Peter a kiss because he complimented her stories. Tinker Bell will not allow this and flies towards Wendy to pull on her hair…

So going in an adult tinkerbell costume at least makes some sense not only on the level of fun, but in the larger context of society’s subversion of traditional “morals” and “values” as rendered through the lens of Disney’s most famous films. It’s actually a concept that cracks me right up.

Of course, that’s assuming that “adult” means “sexy,” which ends up being a whole new can of moralistic worms in and of itself. Personally I find the sexualization of innocent icons to be, as I said, hilarious. But be aware that if you do as much, you’ll be making a political statement of your own that is sure to draw some strong reactions.
