You must not have seen Brave or The Princess and the Frog . . . Disney princesses in recent movies are anything but helpless . . . Almost every single one must also portray all men and boys as cowardly, stupid, disgusting, or outright evil.

You're right. I haven't seen the recent ones, so my comment was inaccurate. Still, with your second comment, I'd consider it more of an oversimplification than an unfair criticism. I'd like to see men and women, boys and girls portrayed as having the potential to do good or not, according to their choice. I'd like to see them shown capable of being brave or not, again according to their own choices. That's what I teach my kids - that choice is everything and that they can to a surprising extent make any choice they can imagine.

Sounds like the "Harry Potter" movies.
