À propos de cet audio

And today, take a little trip with me. Once upon a time, there was a man, and that man drew a mouse, and from that mouse grew an empire. In that empire was a whole slew of princesses that were appropriated from different cultures, who are all public domain and free to use. Yay! We love a happy story. In the beginning, these princesses were very simple. They were just young little girls who needed a man to save them, and that was very simple. But then, as audiences kind of evolved, so did the princesses, and a new generation of princesses came forth, ones that were resourceful and intelligent and yet still had to get married at the end of the movie. Recently, these princesses have come under fire because, well, even though Disney princesses have evolved dramatically over the years, there's still quite a few issues with them. There's some issues with how they act. There's some issues with how they grow as people. And there are some major issues with Pocahontas.

So today we're going to tackle the so-called princess problem.
