This is an article expressing my opinion about some of the renaissance princesses most exaggerated attributes. I may do this for the other DP's, but I thought I'd start with the 3 that get a lot of flack. I feel that while the renaissance princesses have a lot of fans, they also have many haters. This is my opinion, and I know it's not very popular, but try not to be too negative. c:

Ariel

Ariel is known universally as being the brat among the bunch. Though, honestly, I don't see how she's that big of a brat. She has been wanting to go on land for years, and years, and when the chance arises, she takes it. People say that she abandons her duty as princess, but I don't find that true either. Ariel has six other sisters to take the thrown, so the kingdom is still left in good hands. Also, if anything, she was just impulsive and naive. I feel that people should really cut Ariel some slack, and just realize she was doing what she thought was best.



Belle

When asked what Belle's fatal flaw is, people always answer, "She's such a snob." In which I say, whaaaaaaaat? Yes she uses big words, so what? She reads, and learns big vocabulary, and then adds it into her speech..It's really not that uncommon. Also, people say that she only likes people who read. Where is the evidence of that? Just because she doesn't connect with the townspeople, doesn't mean that reading is the reason. Belle seems very polite and kind, and I think when people say that she's a snob, they're just trying to come up with a flaw so she's not deemed as perfect. I think that she's probably the most perfect Disney Princess, but if anything her that is her flaw.



Jasmine

Jasmine's in the same boat as Ariel, nearly everyone thinks she's a spoiled brat. I actually think that she's a strong, independent woman trying to stand up for herself. She is in a situation where her dad is trying to marry her off, so she has to do something. This is my favorite attribute of Jasmine, she stands up for what she believes in, and tells it how it is. This isn't being a brat. Being a brat means being petty about small things, but marriage is a very important thing so I think Jasmine has a right to stand up for herself.



So I hoped you like this short article expressing my opinions on these three ladies...I'd like to hear your guys' opinions on this matter as well. Anyway, thanks for reading c:
