Maybe I'm like getting pressed for nothing but like some people out there don't like the Disney princess movies where the main girl/princess doesn't have a man because "they're trying to be feminist" and "they're saying a women can't be independent if she has a man" like no one is saying that, you're saying that.
Like I saw a video that called Mulan, Mercia, Elsa, and Moana boring bc they don't have a man and the caption was "you try so hard being feminist preferring the princess who don't have a man" like first of all, Mulan DOES have a man and she's an independent queen. Fought in a whole ass war.
As for the other 3, I love them because they don't have a man not because I'm trying to be feminist but because I'm aromantic and am extremely disfavored to romance. I see myself in those girls in a way because they didn't have a love interest. As a little girl I loved Merida and her movie because there was no love interest or love story. It was a girl and her mom who didn't understand each other going through this journey and ending on a new level of understanding.
And maybe I'm getting too pressed bc it is just an opinion but like this is why I want more stories with no love interest and honesty more that have a love interest but still are independent so people stop complaining about how they're trying to say women can't be strong independent if they have a love interest.
But also I feel like they're creating that narrative all on their own. Like let us have our 3 Disney princess movies that don't have a love story. Not even 3 because frozen still has a love story with Anna and Kristof but overall the movie is about sisters so it's pretty cool.
But like it's just frustrating I guess bc now if I say I love Merida or Moana bc they don't have a love interest I don't want people to think that I think women can only be strong/independent without a man. Like no, I like them because I just don't like romance.
Anyways, this also just reminds me of how my sister says they add romance to make it not boring. Like you can have an exciting story with no romance 😭
Anyways. That is all I have for right now. I hope to post a poem or short story later today. Thanks so much for listening and I hope you all have a beautiful day/night. Take care, happy aro visibility day 💚🤍🩶🖤
