I don't care for that either, but at least Disney was subtle about it. The second arc of the My Little Pony comics showed a female character doing that onscreen, despite being forbidden to even imply the death of a non-villain (as opposed to The Lion King, which pulled no punches as to Mufasa's death). Though the character in question is also the only character in the show who's allowed to be punched in the face (not even the second most evil villain who deserves a brutal death like Scar got, even though he does end up going to hell) so I think Hasbro gave both DHX and IDW a license to do anything they want to her no matter how family-unfriendly

Oh and aside from The Lion King, I haven't seen a lot of Disney movies go there
