They seemed to have an attitude of "It's all about ME!" to them, which I thought went against the innocent charm of the characters. Sometimes Disney marketing types just don't see the damage they're doing in trying to be too clever and hip.Pete Emsliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01451607722482352366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27501132.post-54371987644001629742010-07-19T18:15:57.772-04:002010-07-19T18:15:57.772-04:00I don't believe that the Disney characters pro...I don't believe that the Disney characters promote a 'spoiled little rich girl' mentality. Young girls playing princess are exercising their developing understanding of control and independence. To a little girl, being a princess is having it all, including exercising power in daily life. It’s not about girls being snobbish, haughty, sexist or slave drivers.<br /><br />The video here is not about how young girls react to the information presented to them by Disney films, but a comment on how sexist the characters and plots often are in children's films. Actually a lot of modern 'chick flicks' are pretty sexist these days too.Andrea K Haidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912254285198107387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27501132.post-66991884006381480402010-07-19T17:27:40.959-04:002010-07-19T17:27:40.959-04:00I actually went back and decided to watch The Litt...I actually went back and decided to watch The Little Mermaid again.<br /><br />Unfortunately, this pretty much summed up my impression of Ariel's character.

A lot of the merchandise tailored to Tinker Bell as well as the Disney Princesses has exuded that spoiled little rich girl mentality. There were some pretty abhorrent captions on kids' T-Shirts I was seeing in The Disney Stores for awhile. The Disney cartoon girls are being marketed just the same way as Disney's live pop princess, Miley Cyrus, sad to say.Pete Emsliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01451607722482352366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27501132.post-11656506089855277292010-07-19T14:26:06.488-04:002010-07-19T14:26:06.488-04:00The Seven Most Sexist Disney Characters
