Disney made more than 10 princesses. For example, there are Snow White, Cinderrela, or Mulan.
The most oldest one is the Snow White and the most latest is Merida. When the time changed, girl's opportunity and expected jobs became different. We also discussed them in the class by presentation. Among the princesses we discussed in class, Merida is the most positive role model for girls growing up today.She had breaked tradition, tried, and calm.
First, Merida is the most positive role model for girls growing up today because she breaked tradition.
I don't mean that all girls should break trasition but, I don't want them to be blocked whay they want to do by tradition. Today, prejudice of girls are lessened than before in society but there are still some prejudice among women and girl. But, I think that both boy and girl should be on a equal opportunity on society. I hope that if someone tries to block you from something, say that you have your own opprotunity to choose what we want. Adults are not for us to block us by something, they are just the guildline of our life. So, I think girls should not be blocked on tradition. Merida is a really good example for changing tradition. When she speeched she said that tradition or prejudice can't block her.
Second,unlike Snow White waited for good boy to come, Merida tried and tried to find a good way to change her fate. We can say that waiting boy and changing one's fate is a bit different, but in common I think that growing up girls should try to do something. When the time goes the opportunity to girls are getting higher, but I think that as their opprotunity grow they should pay more time and try. Merida followed a whip which is a guildline of fate, so she finds a witch. But, the witch gave her a riddle and her mother change to a bear. I think that Merida had a same characteristic like Snow White she might wait and just think about a solution rather than moving. But, in the movie Merida had a challenging characteristic she moved and while she moved she both thought about the answer of riddle. Finally, her mom changes back to a person. I think that other girls should change their characteristic like Merida. Challenge, crash and fight with the problem.
I think that is the best way of solving problem. I want them to be like Merida.
Finally, Merida is a good role model for growing up girls because Merida is calm. In the second paragraph I said that she's characteristic is a bit confusing and challenging, but in another aspect I want to say that she is also calm. Everyone who don't saw this movie might not agree with my idea. But, in some aspect she are very cautious and calm. Before she started an adventure and followed the whip after she made a plan. Also, when she made her mother get a important carpet she were not planned on her speech but, she was already for the thing and made her little brothers help her. This aspect made her a lot of calm. I think people not only girls are not very cautious at doing something. So I think every people should follow her calm aspect.
I think Merida's movie Brave is criticizing a prejudice and expectation on girl. But, Merida even didn't like her expectation she is a good role model for girls. I liked the point that even you don't agree with a idea you can still be one's role model and beloved. I think that movie also tried to show a model that girl should be like. But, I think that rather than just following your role model you should change the aspect to your personnal characteristic
