There's no doubt to a single person on here that Snow White is sweet, optimistic, and caring, but there's really so much more to her, and I want to delve deeper into that here. Sorry for lack of pictures, I kind of just threw this together and wasn't in the mood to go searching for pictures.
I love how Snow White is confident, yet insecure at the same time. She's confident in the fact that she's not scared to go into the Dwarf's home and boss them around. She's quite assertive and doesn't strike me as a passive character whatsoever. If something isn't going the way she likes, she isn't scared to tell people to get it done, or else. She probably likes to take control of situations as she's spent her entire life forced into becoming presumably a servant to the Queen. While confident, she's also insecure. When she first sees the prince, she doesn't run away out of shyness, as it's quite obvious in the way she acts around the Dwarfs she is not a shy person, but out of the fact that she doesn't look good and she's embarrassed because of that. Also, she wants to be liked by everyone. She makes the entire house nice and tidy for them so they'll like her, and later prays that Grumpy will like her as he's the only one that doesn't seem to like her.
Snow White is also a lot stronger than given credit for. The fact that she's survived years of, well, we don't know for sure, but it can't be good, but still maintains her cheerful temperament deserves a prize of it's own. The fact that she's been wishing for the one she loves and right when he comes he's taken away from her, but she doesn't let that bring her down like most people probably would is extremely admirable. She's very, very level headed. After almost being killed, I don't know about you, but I'd for sure be a wreck, but not Snow. She cries, reasonably, but picks herself together and realizes she needs to find shelter and food. She's very reasonable in the fact that she doesn't let one thing control her emotions. Yes the prince is gone, but she thinks about what's ahead of her instead of that.
She's also quite playful, and at times even a bit....what's the word-rude? Laughing at Grumpy when he hits his head and saying, "You must be Grumpy." She's of course very sweet, in fact she's the sweetest of all the princesses. My point in this isn't a negative, it's actually meant as positive to show the fact that she's not all smiles and sunshine like everyone seems to associate her with. She's also good at using her charm to get what she wants. She's good at making other people feel bad so she can get what she wants, which is displayed when she's checking the dwarfs hands and keeps talking about how disappointed she is in all of them.
Also, I don't think Snow White is nearly as naive as people paint her to be. Yes, she is a bit naive, but Snow didn't know (presumably) that the Queen had any powers, so she only was expecting to see the Queen, not some old hag that didn't resemble the Queen whatsoever. Also, the birds were attacking the poor old lady, and knowing Snow she's always willing to help someone in need. People say it was foolish for her to eat the apple, but the wishing well did work (she wished for a prince and a prince came) so what's so unrealistic about a magic wishing apple?
To conclude, Snow White is actually a lot more than a happy-go-lucky character; she's got a bit of a zest to her through her bossiness and persuasion, and is confident, yet wants to be loved as well. Again, sorry this is kind of jumbled and lacking pictures, I just felt like writing an article about Snow White and just threw this together. Anyway thanks to anyone who read this! :)
