I just read an article in USA Today entitled, "Disney, bridal designer team up." This article was about the new bridal collection.

Andy Mooney, chairman of Disney Consumer Products Worldwide, said that...
...blah...blah...blah...
But Disney's Mooney points out that a woman's first impression of love often comes from an animated character and it's hard to completely erase that from her mind.

What planet is that guy from? I first learned of love from real people. My parents. My grandparents. My relatives. And my neighbors. An "animated character" was NOT where I learned about love, and may God strike me dead right now if that is not the truth.
So, Mr. Mooney, if you weren't misquoted, I'm sorry that you weren't raised by living, breathing human beings who showed you compassion and taught you how to love. I pity you, I really do.
And sadly, Mr. Mooney's comments have tainted the new bridal gown line for me. I hope the designer of the line doesn't share the same opinions of love as he does.
