@seekjustice, Cinderella had permission if she cleaned the house and had a decent outfit. She couldn’t go to the ball in the end because her step-sisters ruined her dress. According to the Disney version

@seekjustice, for the beauty/gender/bod image stereotypes I think that its the same things we see in regular movies with the perfect actors and actresses. As for beauty being the main virtue, I’m pretty sure Cinderella is about kindness and forgiveness. And Mulan, she could have cared less if Shan ever came back to ask her father for permission to…[Read more]

I do find it very difficult to believe in true love at first sight  though. 😛 I can’t even keep up a conversation of small talk with someone I’ve only met once 😀

I do have a serious question for you: How is Cinderella purposefully disobeying her stepmother’s explicit order that she is not to go the ball different to Rapunzel…[Read more]

@valtmy

The opinions are quite divided 😀

@rochellaine They are adorable. 😉 (Hope you hand is better soon)
Currently they are 7 & 9 months (You may think of what I thought when I was thinking about that. XP), a doeling and a wether.
They’re fun. One was rubbing her head against my hand. If I can teach her to do it on cue… Fist/face bump! 😛
But they are not a horse… ;P
I am immune…[Read more]

@alia

They just say thing like princesses hold up beauty as the absolute virtue of a woman, promote that you can only be happy if a man loves you, reinforce gender stereotypes and unrealistic body images. etcetera, etcetera.

I was just curious because I didn’t grow up watching Disney movies, so I can’t really have an opinion on whether they’re…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Great! How’s poor Bathshua now? Is she still miserable?

@seekjustice

Yes, I’m a fan of Disney. Not as much as I once was but I still like many of the classics. So what is the conclusion? 😛

@seekjustice, I watch Disney. What does the thing you’re reading say about why it might be bad?

thanks, I might actually cry since I never actually do. All I have to do is think about Jonas, Waif, Rain, Sapphire…*grabs box of tissues*

@valtmy

Well, I should be researching the French Revolution, but instead I’m sick in bed reading about whether or not Disney princesses are bad for girls. Are any of you guys watchers of Disney?

@rochellaine WHOOOHOOOO

@alia Very good 😛 That’ll make you cry all the more!

@catwing how’s your editing?

@rochellaine, I’m pretty sure its the Buell theatre in CO.

@seekjustice, its a almost year late birthday present that I have tried really hard not to be impatient for. But now thanks to you I’m going to be thinking about Jonas…

@alia

Have fun 🙂

@catwing @rochellaine @seekjustice

Hey. How’s things going? 😀

@catwing,  sounds interesting. My sister has access to one of my books and her comments go past my last written page.

I’m trying to write Decisions, because its been over a week since the last time I wrote in it.

@alia WHAAATTT??? *tries not be extremely jealous*

@catwing Oh, cute!!

@catwing I’m not on now, but I may be later. half hour ish or more. Will you be here?

OH MY GOODNESS GOATSSSSS! I love goats! 😀 congrats! how are the little darlings doing?

@alia Thank you.
Looking through the comments on my book. But I’m leaving the ones where I’m going to have to do a good bit of editing, because after I finish doing these comments I’m going to rewrite some things. Delete chapters, add chapters, change the POV of a chapter. 😉
What about you?

@catwing, so what are you doing?

@catwing, looks fantastic.

@alia Hi I didn’t see you there until just now.
Indeed I have. Do you like my Catwing Guard armor?

@seekjustice @rochellaine @dekreel @valtmy @jenwriter17 I’m doing some more comment fixing. And guess what? My family got goats today. They are cute (maybe partly because they are young). 😀

anyone here?

@catwing, you changed your picture!

@rochellaine, @seekjustice, I thought I was going to see Les Mis in about 4 weeks, BUT I’M GOING THIS WEEKEND
