4 yr old ds is a big fan.

Me: But they don't do anything

Ds: They can do magic. They can make rainbows appear.

Me: Don't you think they want to run around though? And climb? And jump? And swim and have fun?

Ds: They can fight

Me: oh yes?

Ds: They could throw their dress at someone.

Me: Ah.

I actually bought aladin the other day thinking jasmine was a great female role model for my girls (I haven't watched it since I was a child) I. was so shocked i almost started a thread on it. I went and bought princess frog, beauty and the beast (she answers back and says no!) and tangled and was much happier!

If you buy the Disney princess castle they're all meant to live in it, so clearly they've left their boring husbands and set up a lesbian separatist commune. (And there won't even be rows about housework because it'll all be done by woodland creatures and animated kitchen implements!)

Tiana kicks voodoo ass! And starts her own business.

Rapunzel kicks hooligan ass.

The others have some redeeming features but are generally wet IMO.
