Here’s a trip down (repressed) memory lane: Disney’s take on menstruation, complete with Mother Nature as an unappreciated housewife. The music really makes this, as it’s the same orchestral track they use to open all of their normal cartoons, although the soundtrack stops when the gentle narration turns to Serious Business (meaning ovaries). It’s too bad they didn’t make this cartoon a few decades later, as then we could have watched Goofy try to explain all this.
