|Surprisingly takes on an anti-feminist theme by depicting the father as the good, righteous side in a courtroom divorce trial against a greedy, avaricious and uncaring mother, who only wants the children so she can wring every cent of alimony and child support she can out of the father while keeping the children away from him and showing little regard for them herself.

In addition, the film also promotes the concept of redemption and bettering oneself, as the main protagonist, an unscrupulous lawyer, despite resistance towards the wish, ultimately tries to honor his son's birthday wish to not lie for a day even under dire consequences to himself such as being hauled to jail at one point, and ultimately succeeds in keeping his promise of not lying with the ending implying he gave up lying for good, and was also pro-family as the protagonist ultimately tries to better his life for the sake of his son.

|A mermaid strives to become a traditional female human, following the patriarchal system of society. It also promotes the concept of [[assimilation]], as the mermaid when becoming human intended to adopt the culture of the humans upon doing so. The film centers around conservative Christian values and contains an anti-feminism theme. The villain Ursula is shown in a devilish and beastly way (appearing as half-woman, half-octopus), and her claims about men not wanting women who talk and care only for a woman's body language (a common claim by [[feminism|feminists]] against males) is made clear to be lies. In addition, it also contains a pro-traditional marriage theme, and is the last Disney animated feature film to actually treat traditional marriage as a good thing for a while. Despite being set under the sea, it also features an anti-[[Environmentalism]] message, as the characters (namely King Triton) who pushed anti-human sentiments turned out to be wrong in their negative views on humans.

In addition, it also contains a pro-traditional marriage theme, and is the last Disney animated feature film to actually treat traditional marriage in a positive light for a good while. Despite being set under the sea, it also features an anti-[[Environmentalism]] and anti-racism message, as the characters (namely King Triton) who pushed anti-human sentiments turned out to be wrong in their negative views on humans. Although often ignored by liberal reviewers complaints about the movie, it was also pro-family, as during her deal with Ursula, the latter was explicitly hesitant to undergo the deal citing that, regardless of which way the deal goes, she won't see her father and sisters again in a reluctant tone, King Triton, after destroying Ariel's grotto in a fit of anger, is clearly shown afterwards to be immensely remorseful of his actions after it became apparent that Ariel fled from him as a result, and later immediately tries to save Ariel after learning about Ursula's role in her disappearance and even opts to sacrifice himself to ensure Ariel's (and, implied via dialogue regarding Ursula shortly afterward, her sisters) safety, and Ariel upon witnessing Triton being cursed by Ursula, immediately attempts to avenge him by attacking Ursula.
