In conclusion each of the Disney Princesses do portray an idea such as to be perfect you must have a beautiful voice, long hair, enjoy chores, singing to animals or be a kind person. They are clear representations of the perfect women and represent the idea of the perfect women in many unrealistic, sexist ways. It sets the expectations in today's society very high to be the perfect women. This idea of the perfect women is broadcasted throughout media and can be seen through our everyday lives. Whether its choosing an outfit to wear that men will like not yourself, or having your haircut long not short. Or perhaps even by making the choice to wear makeup you are joining in on society's idea of the perfect women.
The Disney Princesses are developing to have some form of dignity and pride in newer films and also are almost flipping positions with the princes and becoming the saviours rather than the damsels in distress. Either way you look at it Disney is creating much more healthy representations of the perfect women in their Disney Princesses. People who younger girls can look up to and think of them as the perfect women because they are adventurous, enjoy reading books, are well mannered and kind. These are the characteristics we want to see in society. And according to the development which the Disney Princesses have evolved through society and Disney is heading in a better direction when representing the perfect women. Either that or women are beginning to take a stand for their rights and grow more independence. Because we all are beautiful and perfect in unique ways.
This idea has recently been represented through the latest addition to the Disney Princesses, Merida. A very adventurous and self spoken girl. In conclusion Disney Princesses who represent the idea of the perfect women are evolving into well rounded characters.
