Snow White

I decided to use Snow White as my fairy tale. This is obviously one of the more well known fairy tales and I really liked it when I was little. Snow White lives with seven little man dwarfs in a house in which she cleans and cooks for them and as we all know she eats a poison apple and finally her prince charming comes and kisses her and they live happily ever after. Seeing Snow White acting like she does in the movie it makes girls think that they are supposed to cook and clean for men, look like her and prince charming will always come to save them. In all honesty I think when I was little I only thought about the prince charming coming to save her. But now looking back at this, Snow White's evil stepmom or whatever wants to kill her because she is prettier than her, we see her cleaning and cooking for a bunch of men while acting like it's so much fun, and when she is at fault after eating the poison apple, the man has to come save her. I guess I never really thought about it this way, but seeing a woman acting like this probably had some affect on me and maybe on some level showed me the way women are "supposed to be."
