Closed Threads

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Disney Princesses Deconstructed

(They're cherry-picking. Mulan is an example of an ass-kicking Disney Princess)

Also, that's a severe misreading of Beauty and the Beast, for both Belle and Beast. I got no gripe at all with the deconstructions of the earlier princesses (though, oh, God, is the artwork and animation in Snow White just ravishingly beautiful).

(The Boy Who Broke My Heart, years ago, worked for a game company in LA designing an adventure game with a female lead, and got to see all the initial sketches submitted by various LA-area artists. One was a very, very elderly man who had worked on Snow White; TBWBMH said the style could not possibly have been more wrong for a game character, but that it was also the most beautiful drawing he'd ever seen.)

You know, for some reason that I don't get, Mulan isn't a Disney Princess. It's Snow White, Cinderella, Belle, Ariel, Jasmine, Sleeping Beauty, and ...

I take that back. Apparently Mulan and Pocahontas *are* included, but you rarely see them on princess stuff.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

And if you are allergic to princesses, here is a link of anti-princess feminist books for girls: [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It's funny - I hate Pochahantas with the burning of a thousand suns, but don't mind the Princesses.

I *love* Pippi Longstocking and Harriet the Spy. I read those books a lot as a child.

Pip, Ramona, and Harriet were my standbys. Also Sally J. Freedman and Penelope Pitstop.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I was anti-princess when I was a kid. I wonder what it says about me that my favorite fairy tale was the one about the flounder.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also Sally J. Freedman and Penelope Pitstop.

Does Peneolpe Pitstop appear anywhere besides the Wacky Races cartoons?

I didn't have a favorite fairy tale, but my favorite folk tale was Tatterhood.
