It's [Not] Happily Ever After

Do you know how much damage sugarized, Disney-fied fairy tales have caused to humanity?

These fairy tales endorse "Love At First Sight" and the principle of "Damsel In Distress", i.e sit tight, look pretty and wait for your prince charming to rescue you.

But what if no one comes to rescue you? What if your rescuer ain't no prince? What if prince charming only falls for you because you're beautiful?

I think the "Love At First Sight" thing is particularly dangerous. Just imagine, little girls all over the world, growing up with dreams of meeting their Prince Charming and giving their hearts away the moment they lay eyes on a gorgeous guy. How dangerous is that?

And growing up believing that Beauty is Everything, that if they're not Beautiful they'd just end up being the Ugly Stepsister with no prince. So that hunger for Beauty is born, to achieve Beauty at all costs. Physical beauty, that is.

So we'll end up with generations of manufactured Barbie-bimbos, of girls with empty spaces where their brains should be, just sitting around looking pretty waiting for someone to rescue them.

Heaven forbid!
