Tiny is the name of a character from Pirates of the Caribbean.
History[]
Background[]
"Tiny" was a woman living in Puerto Dorado on Isla Tesoro during the early half of the 18th century. When the pirates of The Wicked Wench attacked the isle, she was amongst the townspeople rounded up by the Auctioneer and forced to sell off her belongings to the pirates; in Tiny's case, her hens. Tiny's later fate is unknown, though it is known that the pirates burned Puerto Dorado to the ground and used its ruins as a pirate haven.
Development history[]
Tiny was designed by Marc Davis for a controversial scene where the auctioneer was selling women to the crew as enslaved brides as a, "Comedic" take on human sex-trafficking directed at children/general audiences. The scene's main gag was the captured Redhead flirtatiously encouraging the crew to objectify her as the Auctioneer struggled to sell off a short overweight woman crudely named, "Tiny", whom the crew did not want because of her weight despite Tiny acting like she wanted to be purchased. It should also be noted that while the Golden Age of Piracy was no doubt prone to misogyny and sexual crimes, human-trafficking of woman as brides is not known to be notably affiliated with the period or sub-genera and was seemingly created for the attraction.
Due to the scene's misogyny, adult content matter and body-shaming, it was removed in a 2017 refurbishment, though replaced with a somewhat confused joke about the Auctioneer failing to sell chickens.
