Have you wondered why women love the Disney illusion? Why is there a place so pretentious to be labeled as the happiest place on earth? Its simple, girls grow up as their parent’s little princesses - so believing they actually are royalty - and Disney has the best castles! No matter who you are or what you believe, every girl wants someone on in their life to be their prince charming. He (or she) may be rugged like Shrek or more refined like Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid. Although, Prince Eric was a pansy who couldn’t even make the first move on a mute! Come on if you wanted Prince Eric you were practically setting yourself up for failure... thank god his redeeming qualities were saving a “mermaid” in the ocean. We create this fantasy so we can be the swept off our feet, have the chance to rule a dynasty, or inspire change AND these are reasons women are constantly let down by men. The more a person plays into the fantasy, the more expectations they put on another person. Its not feasible to actually meet “prince charming” but the possibility is what keeps it alive. |
