What a sad, sick woman.
My daughters love Disney princesses and, other than the occasional caltrop (tiny little high-heeled shoes with the heel pointing up) and having to clean up after ‘em, I don’t have a problem with it.
Of course, I’m a guy, so I might not get it...
One's sexual inclinations--straightforward or kinky, active or passive, heterosexual or homosexual--should be free to develop without adult intervention or manipulation.
More proof that leftists are self-hating raging lunatics.
Held somewhat captive in a “Princess” household with my 2 girls. One of the biggest things I have noticed is the de-evoltion of Disney films over the years. The earlier films (Sleeping Beauty comes to mind) are not shy of labeling good and evil, and showing the battle between the two. The newer one’s seem to have the same blurred-line thinking that so many hold today in terms of who/what is good, and evil doesn’t really exist, they are just misunderstood.
“It may be old-fashioned to say so, but sex—and especially some middle-aged man’s twisted version thereof—doesn’t belong in the pre-K playroom. Children are going to discover it soon enough, but they’re got to do so on their own. “
And by “their own” I’m sure she means the introduction of “Heather has two Mommies” and other such rubbish that they get to be taught in kindergarten (apparently the age that kids can start leaning on their own as she states)
As for dolls, I’d be more concerned with Bratz than Disney princesses.
The SWEETEST pictures I have of my then 2 y/o niece are of her meeting the Princesses at Disney world. They will melt your heart! The women they have playing the parts are perfect matches, are extremely patient and kind.... and from what my Bro & SIL said, they knelt, hugged and really took time to talk with each child. My niece was enthralled the entire time.
Lets see what she could learn—
Be kind, polite and be a good listener. Treat others with respect and expect to be treated likewise. Being a lady is always a good thing.
Oh, and pretty dresses are nice. Matching shoes are cool too.
It's always funny to watch these people twist themselves into knots trying to maintain unsustainable political views. The Disney Princesses are powerful symbols of feminine yin energy, little girls are naturally and instantly attracted to them, and feminists just can't stand it. It makes for wonderful comedy. ;)
OMG.....trashing the Disney Princesses.......wowser.
You know you’re in the Twilight Zone when getting married to a man you love is described as “some middle-aged man’s twisted version of (sex).” Disney’s happily-ever-afters may not be entirely realistic, but a person who thinks even a fictional happy marriage is “twisted” needs lots of help.
My personal favorite is the father of the prince in “Cinderella,” who wants his son to get married only so he can have grandchildren!
There was some grumbling here about the evil white concept of Pocahantas, but our Little Princess, now 26, was clear about the difference between cartoon and reality. This author is nuts.
LOL!
He sounded just like so many fathers out there “OK, now I want grandkids!”
Normal.
LOL! The father sounds like my parents.
I was married in September. By October my parents were trying to figure out what they wanted the grandkids to call them.
Well.........
Hurry up!
“She’s a beautiful girl, but will she make a good mother? I mean, a good WIFE!”
My little girls (9 and 7) like the new Barbie princess films. These also have good examples for girls: courage, intelligence, unselfishness, and so on. Along with plenty of annoying songs and silly animals, of course ...
You too?
Off the subject (sorta) but my niece adores her Uncle GBB (Grumpy Batchelor Brother) think a cross between Jethro Bodine, Tom Selleck and Larry the Cable Guy....
Anyhow, he will do anything she asks....anything.
Her parents had her in a store and there, hung from the ceiling was—— A PRINCESS CAR! And she saw it! And asked for it.
Mommy and Daddy explained it was too high up and they couldn’t reach it (usually that works with a 2 year old).
Without missing a beat she said “GBB can reach it!”
(and if it meant shinnying up shelves and across ceiling beams, he would).
OK,
whenever you’re ready (but I want to see pictures when it gets here!)
LOL! I’ve seen the princess car in my neighborhood. I worry about the children, though, the way people drive the real cars around here.
Ehrenreich must have kissed a lot of toads that didn’t turn into princes to be that sour and bitter. Of course this article moves her up on Hillary’s list of possible cabinet members.
