Minnie has said this about her ultimate dream man: "He'll stride into the room; a light will glow from him. I'll hear music. He'll bring me flowers. He'll swing me off my feet! And I'll know he's the one when he makes me laugh."

The first time Minnie appeared alongside Mickey was in 1929 short called "Plane Crazy." In it, Mickey invites Minnie along for a ride in his plane. When he kisses her mid-flight, she parachutes out of the plane. Bummer.
