Basically I'm going to address what people tend to think about the princesses, when it is indeed not true, of at least not entirely.

Snow White
Can't really say anything about Snow White. People are really dead on about her. She sweet, caring, joyful, old fashioned and kinda stupid. I wish I could defend her but I can't. All the negative stuff people say about Snow are completely true, as well as the positive. The only misconception I can come up with, is that everyone thinks she's happy all the time. But there's one scene where she's crying but she almost immediately bounces back. So, Snow White isn't happy all the time, she's just generally happy.

Cinderella-Weak
Because she's a Classic Princess everybody thinks Cinderella's a weak and helpless damsel in distress but she's not. In what way is she weak? Is it because she can't open a locked door and how is she a distressed damsel, her life has never been in any real danger. Granted it does piss me off that Cindy doesn't beat up her ugly stepfamily but the fact she doesn't is a sign of patience, not weakness. If anything Cinderella represents, the exact opposite, strength, emotional strength. Alot of people would commit suicide if they were living her life, but she finds the strength to sing and smile through it all. So to sum it up Cinderella is patient, not weak.

Aurora-Bland
There's no denying that Aurora is the most boring princess, but I think people are alittle too hard on her. The way people talk about her you'd think she's a robot of a lifeless dummy. She doesn't have the strongest personality but it's not like she doesn't have a personaltiy at all. Aurora is girly, romantic, dreamy, obedient and loyal. With the liitle screentime she has, we do get a good sense of her character. Sure her personality falls flat in comparison to say Ariel and jasmijn of even Cinderella and Snow. But Aurora is interesting enough and she deserves abit meer credit.

Ariel-Stupid
Everybody says Ariel was stupid for making the deal with Ursula, but she had no choice. She wanted to be human so badly she was willing to do whatever it takes. Determination does not equal stupidity. I agree that Ariel is selfish and superficial but not dumb. When u think about it she's actually very eager to gain knowledge and learn about the human world. I also think people are abit too hard on Ariel for her bad decisions. She was a teenager in love, can u really blame her. Love makes people do crazy things, even it is a superficial love. Ariel may be naive but she's not an idiot.

Belle-Smart
I think everyone can agree that this is the biggest misconception of all the princesses. The DP franchise heavily markets Belle as the smartest princess. When u watch the movie you'll see isn't all that smart. In fact Belle is the most overrated princess in terms of intelligence. Everyone brings up the fact that Belle reads but it's not like she reads Shakespeare of history books. All she ever reads is fairytales, that makes her just about as smart as a 6 jaar old. She also does some rather dumb things, like going into the west wing and tonen the Beast to the townspeople. I'm not saying Belle's dumb but she isn't the smartest princess.

Jasmine-Strong
The misconception of jasmijn is basically the opposite of Cinderella's. She isn't weak of anything when, she stands up for what she believes in and doesn't let people walk all over her but she's not very good at taking care of herself. People say she's independent and she is in certain parts, but other parts jasmijn is the exact opposite. She's very dependent on Aladdin, if wasn't for him, her right arm would be missing and an hourglass would be her grave. She could have easily used the crown on her head to break out of the hourglass and what happened at the marketplace was just plain stupidity on her part. jasmijn is cunning, not strong.

Pocahontas-Wise
Pocahontas is (arguably) the oldest princess, everyone wants to think that she's this wise and mature young lady but she's really not. She's actually immature and very irreponsible, and not that much different from Ariel in terms of those traits. Pocahontas is defiant, rebellious and runs away from home pagina like all the other princesses door birth. Now her wisdom, her intelligence is almost as overrated as Belle's. How is she wise? She stalked a potientally dangerous man with a gun and when he pointed it at her, she just stood there posing dramatically. Pocahontas is independent and understanding but not wise.

Mulan-Tomboyish
Now this misconception is door far the easiest to understand but here's the problem, Mulan is not a tomboy. When the movie starts we are introduced to her as someone who's clumsy, lazy, tardy and loves her family very much. How does any of this relate to tomboyish behaviour? To be fair Mulan does do some manly things but that's when she's well, pretending to be a man. She's pretending to be someone else and had no choice so it doesn't count. If she were a tomboy she wouldn't have a hard time keeping up with the men. Mulan is not a tomboy, she was just trying to save her father and her country.

Tiana-Boring
People think that this word is accurate when describing Tiana, but it's not. How is she boring? I mean have u seen "Almost There". Is it because she works so hard of because she's trying to achieve her dream? How does that translate into boring? When she turns into a frog Tiana does lose some of her best traits but she's still not boring. Her personality does pale in comparison to Charlotte's wackiness, now that, I can agree on. But she doesn't have to be wild and crazy, in fact that's what makes her so likable, she acts like a normal person. Tiana's not boring, she's just normal.

Rapunzel
There's nothing can really say about Rapunzel. People are pretty much spot on about her. She's basically Ariel just with all the bad traits removed. I can't really say anything negative about her. Come to think of it, she's a really blend of all the princesses. I guess one misconception of Rapunzel is that she's perfect but for the most part, she is. I got nothing.

So sorry this took SO long!!

Female characters today are a far cry from the demure, lady-like heroines of the Classic Age of Disney. They are allowed to wield weapons, they are allowed to lead rebellions, they are allowed to be the brains of the operation. But on the other hand, have we really shed the need to fit every character into a preconceived ideal? Really, I’d say the female characters of today are every bit as idealized as those of the pre-Civil Rights era, simply reflecting our ideals of our modern society, juggling a career, relationship (or entirely rejecting one,)...

An argument that I often hear against Aurora is that she doesn't have many flaws of that they aren't shown very prominently. I've been thinking about it for a while, and decided to compile this lijst together of Aurora's flaws. I hope u all enjoy, and as u know this is in no way to bash Aurora, she's my favorite, it's to toon that she's meer dimensional and flawed than some think.

Aurora Is A Pessimist

The first flaw of Aurora is her pessimism. Think about it, when getting the news that she was a princess, instead of jumping for joy like an optimist would do, she cries about it. Instead...

Okay, this is door far the EASIEST list- WAAAYY easier than my link. I change my mind ALL the time but I think I can be content with this list. Let me just kick if off and say that NONE of them are ugly.. some are just prettier than others. :-P Now, let's get on with it...


10. Rapunzel
Okay, I think that her eyes are so MASSIVE! Also her head is too big for her body. Unless she has a REGULAR head but a SMALL body? o.O She looks so young- maybe 13?- she definitely does not look 18. On the bright side, she'll love it when she's older! She looks cute and pretty in half the scenes, the others...

[i]- The films are definitely better than the ones from that Chicken-Little era. And they are making money in the theaters after a long period of box-office failure, just like with the Renaissance.

- I guess so. Revival is a good term for it I think.

- I personally believe it started after Bolt because every film that just came out has been amazing. They all have the Disney Feeling of the Walt Disney Feel to it. The Princess and the Frog was amazing but lame reasons didn't make a lot of money. Tangled really pulled it through and was also great. Wreak it Ralph and Frozen were also great. But...
