I definitely agree with kindness being an EXTREMELY slept on strength. It's nice that the newer princesses are far more nuanced, but the original princesses were certainly strong characters that are arguably still the most recognizable Disney characters to date
are they nuanced tho?newer princesses all share only 3 traits being adorkable, no love interest, being strong independent woman lol
@@PinkThreadOfDestiny compared to the OG's? I think so. Particularly Moana and Tiana. Considering those three traits, they don't represent Tiana and Moana at least. I don't want to get too deep in this, but I certainly believe these newer characters have deeper arcs. The princess from Wish was a step back tho I will admit
Hmm, I believe their stories have more depth compared to the OG princesses. All of the princeses have similar characteristics but I believe it is just a standard that Disney has for them. I think it's more noticeable now because of the art change
Cinderella didn’t even want any of that- she just wanted a night off. That’s it. She wasn’t expecting to get out of the situation or find love. She just wanted one night of reprieve. Fun fact, she doesn’t even mention romance or love at all until after the ball.
Snow is also VERY assertive? She just doesn’t need a sword and to beat the prince. But she shapes those dwarves up in a day to wash up and keep clean.
It is so funny how Snow White managed to get men in shape as a young teen haha she made sure the house was in order
Yeah, Prince Henri was a bonus for Cinderella. He happened to see her walk by.
The undying hope for themselves and kindness towards others despite their own selves suffering is the greatest strength shown by the Disney princesses. They shouldn't be judged as just being pretty, fragile,weak women.
Agreed! I wish more people were kinder nowadays 😭
Snow white was plenty assertive. She made the dwarves wash
She was also very sassy lol
@@missprofessionalyapper she also said "no talking with your mouth full!" Afterall she and Pocahontas share rotating duties of "being mom" to their sidekicks on a given day.
I remember growing up and people criticizing every Disney princess for having a love interest. I think now is definitely time for another (good) Disney princess love story.
Another thing that I find really hilarious is many people thought that the princesses finding love just that day or days is literal when it isn't and forget that these are MOVIES NOT A TV SERIES. they can't flesh out relationships in films as they do in shows. I don't know why many aren't grasping that. It's one of the problems I have with people's modern take on the Disney princesses is they take everything so literal and not really understanding the real lessons they provide which is both hilarious and sad at the same time.
Not to mention they keep blaming Disney for making the princesses fall in love so fast, when that's how most fairy tales play out. If anything, they should be mad at Hans Christian Anderson or something.
@@ThePrincessCH yeah they forgot that the themes of love are idealized. You can still enjoy and sigh of the ideal love while still teaching kids (or anyone in that matter) that in reality it isn't always that simple in real life; but the virtues of the lessons they teach is still important to learn to become a better person and be rewarded for it. That's what Disney films, especially with the Princesses always teach: Happiness, optimism, kindness, and never give up on your dreams. This is why we love and hold them so dear to us.
Thank you for defending the OG princesses! I hate when people victim blame Cinderella and Snow White. Also I Agree! There is no one way to be a woman. You can be feminine and still be a badass.
Correction: "White feminism"
Nice video! What are your opinions on Aurora?? I don’t think Ariel is a hated princess, considering she’s arguably the second most popular one behind Cinderella. While Snow White isn’t amongst my favorites, I find her very underrated. A lot of people mistranslate her as being a stereotypical damsel in distress waiting for her prince to save her, which is completely untrue considering the prince is barely in the movie. I think she’s very adorable, kind, sweet, compassionate but also a bit sassy. She doesn’t take crap from Grumpy when he’s being stubborn, but still cares about him and the other dwarves. Cinderella is my favorite of the classic princesses, and its largely because of both sequels and her forgiving nature towards Anastasia specifically. She doesn’t hold grudges against her family, and eventually helps Anya find her happily ever after with the baker in the second movie, which I wish got more exploration. Ariel isn’t amongst my favorites either, but I definitely get why she’s still so popular. The way a lot of haters portray her as a “typical boy crazy teenager” is actually how Ariel was originally written to be in the movie. Part of Your World originally wasn’t supposed to be in the movie, only the reprisal, and instead Ariel would’ve had a song specifically about Eric and she’d do anything to be with him. But thankfully, Howard Ashman fought to keep the song in, making Ariel a much more complex character who just didn’t belong in the ocean and was much happier as a human instead. While I find her relationship with Eric to be kinda rushed, I still adore how he finds her odd personality intriguing and adorable inside of thinking something is wrong with her, further proving her feelings of wanting to be a human instead. Are you planning on doing another video about the Renaissance princesses or the non ones like Esmerelda, Meg, and Jane??
I LOVE Aurora! She’s one of my favorites! She was also very assertive when wanting to marry her true love instead of someone she was arranged to marry. I would say she is also witty, but I wished we had more time with her in the movie. I also like Prince Philip as it is rare to see Disney princes putting themselves in harms way to save the princess.
I do plan to make a video about the unofficial Disney princesses and also another one about Disney women (not sure exactly who but Jane is on my list)
Thank you so much for the comment!
I also love Ariel and Prince Eric's relationship! It was so cute!
Also, out of all the older traditional Princesses (besides Belle), we got to see their dynamic more in the movie
Cinderella and all of the other princesses, the princes weren't even their first thought. They were like an excuse to get away from their crappy home lives and for Snow White to save her own life from being killed by her stepmom, who was pretty much threatened because some creepy mirror thought a fourteen-year-old girl was more attractive than a thirty something year old woman.
Okay so Cinderella is my n1 fav disney princess and beofre i start mentioning anything i consider the first animated movie and the third movie aka the sequel to both be cannon '
1. Cinderella even with all of the work shes given she dosent even curse the lady tremaine and her daughters all she does is do the work yet she does the work while being even kind to lucifer even tho getting mad at him for a lot of times she still does the chores and and takes care of them and herself.
2.Having a fighting spirit a lot of times i see people never mention cinderella of ever being same like mulan or tiana when infact similarities show just in diffrent ways like tiana and cindy both worked for what they wanted tiana worked for her restaurant and cindy worked thru her chores as fast as she could so she could still have time to fix the dress and come to the ball as for the mulan comparision i consider the 3rd movie aswell cannon like i said and the way cinderella acts in the 3rd movie is complete badass even after lady tremain strips her of her happy ever after she still has will??? to go to the castle and does A LOT OF attempts to get her happily ever after back and then lets not talk abt the way lady tremaine used magic again on her so shed be trapped in a pumkin carrige of doom with lucifer and yet she still for a *weak role model* broke a huge hole in the pumkin carrige with her arm that wouldve defenitly hurt for some of us let alone then ridding a horse to save her wedding? and then having courage to go face to face with lady tremaine and the wand and having no fear???
3. even if people dont consider the 3rd movie cannon and only the original then in the original she shows as much strength cause i know damn well a lot of us wouldnt manage doing chores every single day nonstop and shes smart aswell??? on top of that even after the mouse unlocked the door for her to escape she still decided on let me get the glass slipper so id do anything to prove myself.
4.cinderella is allways so misunderstood and taken as weak and not a good role model when instead shes one of the strongest for both female and male cause her message to kids teens and adults saying that fight for your dreams no matter what way in the road be nice and kind and the good will allways be with you.
The princes were weak because they wanted love.
I kind of don’t like how the older Disney Princesses like Snow White and Cinderella were so passive but I blame that on the time period the movies were created in since they never got angry at their abusers and lashed out at them - which I wouldn’t blame them if they did, it’s completely understandable and there’s no such thing as the perfect victim - and that’s most likely due to the standards people held women to at the time. I still enjoy the movies though, I find Cinderella to be very aesthetically pleasing!
You kidding? When Lucifer messed up the floors, Cinderella was about to beat him with her broom lol. And remember at the beginning of the movie when she told her dog Bruno to "just learn to like cats?" Yeah that went out the window when she pleaded the birds to signal Bruno for help. Cinderella is definitely no passive princess when her friends are in trouble. And she did stand up for herself one time: when she said "Well, why not? After all, I'm still a member of the family. And it says 'by royal command, every eligible maiden is to attend.'"
As for Snow White, she is very gentle but can be stern like a mother. Example: scolded the squirrels not to sweep dust under the rug, told the dwarfs they don't get a bite to eat unless they washed up, and not letting animals attack old ladies (yes WE know it's the evil queen but she didn't).
Umm... Cinderella has known to stand up for herself a couple of times despite knowing Tremaine is a Powerful Aristocrat who can literally use physical force or her high status to destroy her completely. I was sure when she walked up to Cindy in that menacing tone, she was going to strangle her..... and as for Snow White, what is your option? Fight against a vain and power hungry witch with absolutely nothing to defend urself or run to live for another day.
What is ABUSE without unfair power dynamic btwn the abuser and the victim?
I hate it when people start lashing out at the victims but I guess its smart to just girl boss ur way to fight the literal psychopath holding a knife than to escape through an open window.
Remember when the father 'disappeared' I realised that the only reason that Tremaine hadn't just killed Cindy when she was just a child since there was no reason to keep her because she got the entire property and a high status so no one will question her (technically if u remembered the ball sequence every guest there cares about power and status and would not bother to lift a finger if anyone else was in dilemma) is that Tremaine is a psychopath and enjoys seeing people suffer from long-lasting emotional wounds.
Also notice how Tremaine keeps making Cinderella suffer but gets agitated when Cindy shows either no emotion at all or smiles (which kills the pathetic woman to the core) until the very end when she locks her up in the attic in which she smiles (because if we had an alternate ending, she will know that Cindy will spend her last days suffering from starvation until her body breaks down into nothing but skin and bones) because her point is to make Cindy suffer because if she isn't suffering then she will be the one suffering.
It is a internal war between her and Cinderella and only one will be the victor. What's the point of killing them so quickly and gain no satisfaction from it when you can just smile and watch them cry and beg for the rest of their lives? Cinderella doesn't give her that satisfaction because her optimism is giving her hope that things would become better and she won't stay in her broken state for long. Cinderella is alone and within the clutches of a groomer (Tremaine is grooming her to become a slave. Grooming isn't limited to sex object just so you know)
Cinderella follows the saying that (sadly) people nowadays just ignore
'Be as harmless as doves and as wise as serpents'
more nonsense of those who haven't even lived through the terrifying environment, they think they can handle=more modern radical feminist nonsense👎👎👎
Like the other comments, I agree that that they were not passive at all lol they just had different ways of showing their assertiveness
The original Disney stories are at least 400 years old. Why do people want them to age like modern people
Thank you
i dont hate snow white bcs it threatens feminism, it'd be insane for me to gaf abt a movie made in the fifties or sum shit i hate it cuz she's 14 and he's 31💀💀💀🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 oh also i think mulan, tiana and brave emphasize on brave are far off better movies that break the stereotypical "oh women, kitchen, dishwasher, men, dumb, lalala" WHILE providing healthy relationship examples and love interests
@Shootingsstar Disney's "Mulan" isn't a fair comparison since she's the only folktale inspired Disney princess whose folktale isn't a love story (almost every Disney princess is inspired by a folktale).
Who cares about modern feminism?
Idk how to tell you that some women are still openly oppressed,look at Afghanistan
@@azural8347 I'm talking about radical feminists who want men destroyed from existence.
