Most kids don't take the best care of their toys. Sure, they'll get excited about a new Barbie doll, teddy bear, or lego set for five minutes, but next thing you know, the toys have been beheaded and can be found strewn limbless around the house. Perhaps kids would take better care of their toys if, rather than the usual stuffing or pieces of plastic they are used to seeing upon dismemberment, they were greeted with a skeleton and organs instead? New York-based sculptor and toy designer Jason Freeny reimagines popular children's characters and designs them with a 'realistic anatomy,' displaying them dissected down the middle. They aren't exactly available for mass production, but maybe this is the way forward? Here are some of his masterful creations, but you can catch more of them on his Facebook and Instagram pages.

For too long, both in Hollywood and literature, women have often been merely supporting characters for men. As part of the territory, writers go to great lengths in describing the woman's physical appearance, focusing on their beauty (or lack thereof). But what if the tables were turned, and male characters received the same treatment as their female counterparts? What if writers began using equally shallow means to describe male protagonists, focussing solely on their physical appearances? A hilarious Twitter thread asking people to "Introduce a male character the way male screenwriters describe women," has got people doing precisely that, and the results are hilarious! Hollywood, watch out!

The world of Disney is full of princesses, damsels in distress, and courageous male knights in shining armor. DC and Marvel comics too, are predominantly full of male superheroes, with a severe lack of strong female presence. It's not exactly the most empowering message for young girls.

The illustrators at Bright Side did just that and the results are incredible. Check out the modern-day Disney superheroes below and let us know what you think!
