Who decided that one could be a strong, self-sufficient woman OR a princess? Who determined that princesses are weak and unarmed?
My daughter(s) will be allowed to watch Disney movies. At least the classic ones--and Tangled. But I will ensure that her definition of Princess is created not from Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, or Ariel...but from fantasy and sci-fi princesses. MY daughter's princesses will wear a tiara with her gold armor as she rides beside her father the King:
She will defend with a sword or bow:
She will use her mind, as well as a weapon:
She will use her voice:
She will bring healing:
She will love passionately:
She will give wise council and grant sanctuary:
She will learn honor, bravery, and cunning.
She will give honor, love, and joy.
She will be wise and gracious.
She will defend and protect.
She will sooth and heal.
She will be a warrior.
Because she is a princess.
