Sorry - missed this the first time but:

Disney is not doing this now (at least using scale and ruler to determine beauty) your argument that they were in their rights to do so in 1955, implies you feel the current practice wrong - i.e. not using a "standard" for determining atractiveness/hirability. From what I understand they are hiring a diverse workfroce which ultimately satisfies more than just the common denominator of beauty - do you think this wrong?
