I was in school the other ngày and me and my Những người bạn were talking about Disney Princesses at lunch. This one person who I don't particularly like decided to become part of the conversation. She said, and I quote, "I'm not going to let my daughters, if I have any, watch those movies. They're such bad role models. The only ones they'll be allowed to watch are Công chúa tóc xù and Mulan because they need to be strong young women." And after that I just left the conversation.
Now I'm going to prove to bạn that the Disney Princesses are great role models, particularly the ones that don't get that much love. I just need to vent this somewhere. Sorry if this annoys bạn hoặc anything, but I needed to post it. Let's start with Snow White, the 'fairest of them all'.
Snow White is often criticized for a) running away instead of fighting back, b) being just beautiful, not any asset to anything, c) not making adult decisions and d) being a mother figure to the dwarves, amongst others. These four are the most common ones though.
Let's all chịu, gấu in mind that Snow White and the Seven Dwarves was released not even after World War II begun. This was the perfect woman in the thirties. And it isn't like they wanted to make a sexist movie, they were basing it on fairytales that have been around for centuries. How do bạn expect her to fight back - with a sponge? Same thing with the beauty - how do bạn keep from being beautiful?
The third thing is easy to prove wrong because of the fact that Snow White is. Freaking. Fourteen! And there's also the fact that she has never left the lâu đài grounds - ever. People say that she relied on a prince to save her, but if bạn listen to the song 'I'm Wishing' you'll realize she just wants someone to tình yêu her. That person just happened to be a prince. Go and criticize Kate Middleton for marrying Prince William - it's almost the same thing! A commoner marries a prince. Snow White isn't even a commoner.
The last thing - I doubt Snow was taught to do anything other than servant things. She probably just wanted to offer the dwarves something that would make them happy, because Snow is a lovely person! Sure, she has her flaws, like letting the Queen in when she was told not to let her in, but that just makes her thêm interesting.
Snow White is a great role model. Not all people are tough, strong tomboys like Merida and Mulan - some people are sweet and feminine like Snow White and Aurora. Snow White is optimistic, kind, generous, hard-working, gentle, hopeful, pure-hearted and cheerful, which are all great traits to have. We don't all have to be Meridas. Some of us are Snow Whites.
People need to stop hating on Snow and all the other princesses.

I want to be known as the DP leader
Take away personalities
