Walt Disney Corporation is one of the most influential media production companies in America. Its media productions range from TV and radio programs, cartoons, and animated movies. The media inventions of Walt Disney Corporation are not only broadcasted in America but world widely, while the target audience is mainly children. However, Disney fairytales movies usually depict gender stereotypes concerning males and females roles, especially for the Disney Princess movie line. In this essay, I am going to analysis the women stereotypes depicted in the animated movies in the Disney Princess line, including Snow white and the Seven Dwarves (1937), Cinderella (1950), Sleeping Beauty (1959), The little Mermaid (1989), Beauty and the Beast (1991), Aladdin (1992), Mulan (1998). First of all, animated movies in the Disney Princess line usually portray women as weak and helpless, they are dependent on their male counterparts, especially for those films that are produced in the early years. In each Disney Princess films, there is a beautiful maiden who is suffering, only prince can save her. For instance, the heroine in Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is depicted as a weak and emotional woman, she always bursts into tears when she faces difficulties or feels sad. Moreover, she needs the prince’s help when she was poisoned by her wicked stepmother who is jealous of her beauty. Without the kiss of the prince, Snow white will sleep forever. Furthermore, the princess Aurora in Sleeping Beauty is cursed by an evil fairy that before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday, she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall asleep from which she can be awakened by true love's kiss. Again, her life and death are controlled in the hands of a male. Even in a heroine flim, Mulan, the female character still needs help form male. In the training camp, she cannot afford the demanding training as she is physically weaker than men. Beside, each of the Disney Princess movies except Mulan has a central Princess and Prince pairing. It seems that the ultimate goal of each princesses or heroines in the films is to find a handsome and wealthy prince or man to marry, and then they can “live happily ever after”. For instance, in Snow white and the Seven Dwarves, there is a song called “Someday my price will come” which is sung by Snow White. The lyrics are: Some day my prince will come Some day we'll meet again And away to his castle we'll go To be happy forever I know Some day when spring is here We'll find our love anew And the birds will sing And wedding bells will ring Some day when my dreams come true The lyrics depicted the dream of the princess is to wait for a prince to find her and marry her, and then they will live happily ever after. Moreover, in Cinderella, a maiden, Cinderella is paired up with Prince Charming. In Sleeping Beauty, Princess Aurora is paired up with Prince Phillip. In The little Mermaid, Princess Ariel is paired up with Prince Eric. In Beauty and the Beast, Belle is paired up with the Beast who is a prince originally. In Aladdin, Princess Jasmine is paired up with Aladdin who became a wealthy prince by the help of The Genie. Even in Mulan, Disney arranged a male counterpart called Li Shang for her and they fall in love. “Disney reminds us at the conclusion of the film that Mulan is still just a girl in search of a man” (Giroux, 102) Almost all the princesses in Disney films aimed at marrying a prince and live happily ever after. Additionally, Princess Ariel is even depicted as being willing to do anything to be with Prince Eric, even giving up her voice to become human. This indicates the desire of the princess to marry her beloved prince, this dream is so big to her that she is willing to give up the important things in her life in order to accomplish it. This stereotyped that every female is driven by finding her prince in order to be happy. It seems that every female’s biggest dream in their life is to marry a handsome and wealthy guy, and they are willing to sacrifice in order to accomplish this dream. However, in reality, a woman can definitely living happily without a man, marrying a handsome and wealthy guy is not the only way for women to be happy and this is not the biggest dream of most of the w
