Disney Princess Question

What would you do if you could decide how the next princess will be?

As the next princess (Moana) already filled the "we need a princess with a realistic body" , what would you like for the next DP after Moana , a not-straight princess?, a princess who can't sing?, maybe even an ugly princess who stay ugly the entire film? What would you do if you could decide how will be the next princess?(after Moana of course)

Moana doesnt have any more of a realisitic body than any of the other DPs.

I'd like to see a princess as a real princess like Princess Diana or Kate Middleton, and see how they deal with pressures and responsibilties of being a princess and its not really happily ever after unless they work towards it

I'd love to see a lesbian princess or another princess of color. There are so many fascinating cultures out there that Disney has yet to explore! Also (and this is somewhat selfish, I admit) I'd love to see a princess with glasses because I have glasses haha.

I'd like a real princess, not this let's take every outcast of society and pretend she's a princess so that the outcasts of society can have false hope that others actually see them as princesses.

I think it's really offensive when people pretend that Moana has a "realistic" body or that the other DPs don't. Jasmine and Ariel have realistic bodies, ask any of the women from Victoria's Secret. I am incredibly offended that "fat" or "thick" is somehow more "realistic" than "thin" or "average", especially when it's obviously less healthy. Disney should never make a fat DP or an ugly DP.

I also find it incredibly offensive to say things like we "need a DP of color". No, we don't. You WANT a DP of color, we don't need one. All races are now represented in the DP line up and there are just as many Caucasian cultures that have not been represented, primarily all of southern Europe. So a DP "of color" is not more needed than a DP not of color and it's actually racist to assume that all Caucasian cultures must be the same. I also don't understand how all of these non-Caucasian cultures that never had a princess in their society should be eligible for a DP story? They can still be heroines but making them princesses is just lying and European-izing their culture anyways.

I would make a real DP based on a fairy tale story and not some socio-political agenda DP.

Disney wants people to know that what's on the outside is not what counts, but what is on the inside is what does. The term "ugly" and "fat" are really vague. What weight exactly qualifies a person as fat? People cannot control if they have flaws like being deformed or having pimples, so calling them ugly isn't appropriate. What we need is a modernized princess (though still made up) that deals with problems that relate to thier kingdom and not their own buisness. Now every child wants to be a princess just to talk to animals, not go to school, wear fancy clothes, and be rich. We need a princess that deals with her kingdoms problems and doesn't run away and build a castle of her own.
