All of these are found in the movie and some even more than once. Throughout the movie there are many specific examples of good vs. evil. The near perfect hero against his evil enemy is the plot of the movie but there are also many more. An…

Beauty standards are a common struggle in girls and always have been. Throughout the years the standards have changed, and they are now becoming more prominent in young girls. Research has been done, and it has shown that young girls no longer want to do “little” girl activities; but want to change their looks, wait for their prince charming, and become big girls. Stephanie Hanes, with a background in play therapy, wrote an article concerning Disney Princesses effects on young girls. Hanes has a…

Yvonne also included awkward moments in their “dates”, for example she says, "'You got a blog figured out for tomorrow,…

How ever the princess is still a damsel in distress as she has to be saved multiple times throughout the film, keeping the stereotypical…
