Excerpt
Cinderella and Snow White were saved by Prince Charming, and Red Riding Hood was rescued by a woodsman. These three fairy tale endings may reinforce Marcia K. Lieberman's view of fairy tales. She says that Disney fairy tales are bad influences because they teach girls to be passive, beautiful, and always in need of help. I do not think Lieberman ever saw Beauty and the Beast. Belle, the heroine, is a perfect example of how Disney is portraying girls differently.
