Disney Princess Question

I'm doing an article to defend every Disney Princesses. Is there any particular points you want me to defend?

*
Does anyone have anything for Mulan? I don't really see a lot of hate for her. Should I just take her off altogether.

yeah, I'd keep Mulan off. she gets no real criticism as a whole, unlike Ariel, Snow, Aurora, Merida and Anna.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I'm sure there's criticism of her somewhere but not enough to defend...

I love your idea!!

Could you defend Rapunzel's using Eugene to take her to see the lights and leaving the tower and Merida's choice to give her mother the cake?

Well you can defend Elsa against her criticisms about her being a "blank-slate" or being "selfish".
Those criticisms are getting annoying and I would like to see what you have to say.

Although I don't like Elsa that much I do agree she is not selfish and I can defend both cases.

Well I think you need to more defend Merida and Elsa, as I saw they both are strongly hated in this club. Peoples disliked Merida considered her as selfish and arrogant, and Elsa often considered as a coward person.

Great idea for an article! :) Personally, I'd like to see a defense of Ariel trading her voice for the chance to be with Eric and Anna being so quick to fall in love and want to marry Hans.

I wrote an article defending just Ariel's and Eric's relationship including her choice to give up her voice for the chance to be with him and be human. If you're interested: link:D

I have told Renegade sooooo many times that yes, while Elsa is selfish, so many other princesses are equally selfish, not just her. But he's upset with this truth. Too bad, that so many other princesses have been called selfish before.... Not just Elsa. Duh. The part about Elsa being too scared, and running away from all of her problems? Yup. That one sticks.



Pocahontas is literally declared "boring" or "uninteresting" by nearly everybody in this club.

People think Jasmine is a spitfire and intolerant.

They complain Cinderella is too kind and nobody needs to be kind anymore.

They believe Snow White is too impossibly cheerful, and nobody could ever be "that kind of cheerfully optimistic" in real life.

They believe Anna is stupid and/ or dumb, for believing in love at first sight, and for interfacing with two guys ( an echo of Belle btw)--- and the complaints leveled at Anna are due to the incredibly "rushed nature" of her development both with Kristoff and with Hans.

They think Aurora is development-less, and has zero personality.


They think Belle is either a "wonderfully balanced" individual, or she is a snob, who passes judgement on multiple people for narrow-minded reasons.

They admire Tiana's hard-working traits, but don't like her "zero fun" mentality. (Some other people like myself *cough, cough* really dislike her for her constant criticism of everything and everyone in sight....)

Some people believe, as I said, that Merida is a better kickass girl than Mulan is, and should replace her as the "strong princess." I've seen the two pitted against each other. :( Complaints about Merida ring true, as she is intransigent when faced with obstacles (where Mulan is universally more respectful and accepting), and Merida leans toward being cruel when she cannot get her way (whereas Mulan tries to prove herself worthy).

And finally, Ariel. Oh, my. This girl gets the brunt of every insult flung that could be flung at a DP. She has been called the normal insults: selfish, reckless, headstrong, stubborn, careless, and unthinking-- but then some people fling words like "cruel," "stupid," "atrocious," "bratty," "evil," "mean-spirited," "you're going down, Ariel," etc.--at Ariel...and I can't help but wonder if they ever watched the same movie with the bubbly mermaid that I watched. I mean...you can dislike a character or something, but you don't need to be so vicious, please. l seem to find that Ariel is "declared" to be the worst princess of them all around here. People think Ariel is worse than Snow White. They attack Ariel's personality nonstop, saying every other DP is better

Snow White- Not doing more to fight off or run away from the huntsman despite being a young girl who was lucky she was even able to scream let alone throw her hands up in defense. Also that she isn't pro-female or a negative representation of women. She made the dwarves happier and they appreciated her feminine differences. She controlled the house and made their standard of living immediately better, showing the positives of having a woman in the home.

Cinderella- Not doing more to get away from her situation despite being in a time and place where she couldn't do more. She also did try speaking up for herself but Lady Tremaine kept silencing her and then adding more chores to the list as a result.

Aurora- Not being well-developed or having a personality due to short amount of screen time. She has a very graceful, reserved yet playful and romantic personality that shouldn't be discounted as non-existant.

Belle- Being a snob or know-it-all just because she's more intellectually curious than everyone else in her town who rejects her despite her attempts to converse with them. Also Belle being indoorsy when she clearly wants adventure and is actually outdoorsy. Belle not being romantic, as people don't seem to be willing to give her credit for since she spoke to her father about looking for love in a non-specific manner.

Pocahontas being a "bland or boring character".

Merida being less socially graceful due to the influence of her father though she later takes on more traits from her mother to balance out a bit.

Jasmines so called "rude" personality. Also please defend the clothing she wears and her lifestyle and why she shouldn't be called slutty or rude.
