the worst thing about it is they probably workshopped and debated the phrase “female-presenting nipples” for days on end. there’s probably email chains that are like “re:re:re: nipples?”
that in the Chinese version of Disney’s Mulan, the fake name she gives is “Ping”, but her family name “Fa” in English is “Hua” in Chinese, therefore her full name is “Hua Ping”, which is literally “Flower Vase”, and that’s why Shang is so bewildered because it’s a silly name.

but OP how could you not tell them the best part
“hua ping”/flower vase is chinese slang for “camp gay”

Mulan, introducing her soldiersona: Hello yes it is me, a twink
Shang, sweating: welcome to the army

the surgery was a success.. the boy is complete
