My main concern isn't whether this film taught people these things, it's whether it taught them too well. What's to say those people don't take the wrong idea and think internally ugly people are automatically externally beautiful (Beauty and the Beast was especially bad regarding this)? Heck, what's to say the audience, by adopting that message, won't fall for someone like Jean-Paul Sartre (You should at least be casually familiar with him, Reimeille, considering he was mentioned in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, especially regarding his glowing statement about a certain infamous communist revolutionary being the "most complete human being."), someone who is both ugly on the inside and especially the outside (and yes, he actually was deformed on the outside. Even Sartre admitted as much, to say less about hagiographers), and being betrayed and paying dearly for the consequences as a result? Don't believe me, just read up on this: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-559137/Dangerous-liaisons-sex-teens-The-story-Sartre-Beauvoir-told-before.html

Honestly, with people like Sartre and de Beauvoir betraying people like that and successfully seducing women in the first place despite their hideous physical deformities, it's really no wonder there are people who are very cynical about that message and unwilling to even believe in it. Heck, even Snow White, perhaps unintentionally, showed the realistic negatives of such a message when she placed trust in that peddler crone and landed herself in a coma as a result.
