Disney Princesses Are Not Perfect.
We don’t expect them to be perfect either. While Disney movie do teach us many valuable lesson. They can also develop some bad habits in kids and make their expectations of life all skewed.
Thats why we have compiled some of the moments in Disney movies where it was clear that our beloved princesses had failed us. While Disney is providing us with strong female leads like Tiana, Elsa, Merida and Moana. They still have a long way to go.
#1 Elsa Underestimated Her Past. As, Forgetting The Past Is Not As Easy As Singing One Song. Even When That Song Is ‘Let It Go’.
#2 While Merida Spent The Whole Film Fighting Against Expectations Of Her. She Did Say That Our Fate Is Inside Of Us, Waiting To Be Discovered. The Opposite Is Actually True.
#3 “Sometimes, The Right Path Is Not The Easiest One”. While That May Be Technically True. However, The Right Patch Is Always The Hardest One Not Sometimes.
#4 While Disney Princesses Prove That Adventure Is Right Around The Corner And Does Not Pose Any Problems. That May Not Be True. You Don’t Have To Go On An Adventure To Achieve Something.
#5 Dreams Don’t Come True Just Because You Wish For it. You Have To Get Up And Do Something For It To Come True.
#6 Filling The World With Sunshine Shouldn’t Be Someones Job. While Optimism Is Good And All. We All Have To Face Reality One Way Or Another.
#7 While We Are All The Same In Terms Of Equality. However, All Of Us Are Unique And Different In Our Own Ways And We Should Accept These Differences.
#8 Hair Might Look Majestic Underwater. However, Because Of All The Sea Salt Ariel’s Hair Will be Destroyed Once She Comes Above Ground. Her Hair However, Always Looked perfect.
#9 In Disney Movies, Singing Is Treated Like It Can Solve Anything. It Can’t And We Wouldn’t Advice You Trying It.
#10 If You Are In A Bad Situation. A Fairy Godmother Isn’t Just Going To Appear And Swish All Your Problems Away With A Flick Of The Wand.
#11 You Don’t Have To Always Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone To Achieve Something. While We Admire Rapunzel Wanting To Explore The World. It Is Not So Simple In Real Life.
#12 We Don’t Wake Up With Makeup And Our Hair Perfect. In Disney Movies However, The Princesses Always Have Perfect Makeup On.
#13 While This Is Changing In Recent Movies. Disney Princesses Don’t Do Much Work Except Traditional Work Like Cooking And Cleaning.
#14 Everything Is Usually Expected From The Prince. As He Has To Come A Save The Damsel In Distress.
#15 Beauty Is Shown To Be Very Important In Disney Movies. Ever Seen A Beautiful Villian? Disney Usually Portrays The Ugly As Being Evil.
#16 Disney Has Always Changed The Classic Stories So They Have A Happy Ending. In Real Life However, It Is Not That Simple.
