I spent hours scrolling way way way wayyyy back through the official Disney Princess Instagram because I don’t have a life and I found this! I really miss when they made posts about Elena. Hopefully someday she’ll get to be included again because she’s such a beautiful role model for young children, and hands down my favourite princess, “offical” or not.

JK Rowling will die alone in that castle of hers, surrounded by no one. sure, she'll get a few days of attention and Harry Potter will be popular for a bit, but by the end of the month everyone will have moved on. she won't be remembered as a visionary who wrote a popular book series 20 years ago, she'll be remembered as a bigot who put down trans women and other cis women for the sake of some "agenda". She isn't a feminist. She's a bigot grafting the skin of an actually helpful political movement onto herself to pretend she cares about women.

Trans people, keep going. We'll outlive her. this law will get overturned. we have to keep moving forward

You CANNOT separate art from the artist when the artist is still alive and producing new media to profit off.

So on that note, do NOT watch the new Harry Potter series. Do not hate watch it. Do not watch it because “it’s going to be my childhood remade”. I do not care. Do not watch it. This is a direct move to erase the original trio who have all stood against jkr.

🌹 Cinderella Was Stronger Than Series-Rapunzel—and That’s the Truth 👑

You know what? The more I reflect on it, the more convinced I am that Cinderella is a far stronger, more empowering character than Disney’s version of Rapunzel in Tangled: The Series.

Both Cinderella and Rapunzel endured severe, prolonged trauma. Cinderella suffered years of emotional abuse and forced servitude at the hands of her stepfamily. Rapunzel was kidnapped as a baby, isolated, and emotionally manipulated by Mother Gothel. The trauma both girls experienced is undeniable. And yet, only one of them rose above her trauma with grace, kindness, and strength.

🕊️ Cinderella saw marriage as liberation—not a prison.

Cinderella didn’t see marriage as the end of her independence. She saw it as a path to freedom—which, historically, is exactly what it often was for women trapped in abusive homes. Marriage to a kind man was one of the only viable exits for women like her in the time period these tales are set.

She didn’t mistreat her prince. She didn’t panic at the thought of commitment. She didn’t belittle love or loyalty. She was kind, selfless, and hopeful—despite everything she had endured.

Compare that to series-Rapunzel, who treats Flynn—who literally died for her—with doubt, disrespect, and emotional distance. She rejects his heartfelt proposal not once, but repeatedly. She views marriage not as a sacred union with someone she loves, but as a trap. She even has nightmares about it. It’s only when she finds out that Flynn is secretly a prince that her tune magically changes—suggesting her love for him was conditional. If he were a commoner, was he simply not good enough?

That’s not romance. That’s classism.

🤐 And what’s worse? She enables the toxic behavior of her friends.

Let’s not forget how Rapunzel says nothing when her toxic friend Cassandra belittles Flynn for his background, his past, and his worth. He’s mocked for being poor, for being traumatized, for being vulnerable—while Rapunzel, the supposed “strong woman,” stands by in silence. That’s not strength. That’s complicity.

Flynn had trauma too. He grew up abandoned, had to build a false identity just to survive, and never had a place in the world until Rapunzel. Yet the show never treats his trauma with the same weight or empathy. It’s always her pain, her “growth,” her “freedom.” His needs are secondary. His love becomes background noise to her endless soul-searching.

🚩 Double standards and modern revisionism

People bend over backwards to excuse Rapunzel’s toxic behavior because she’s “traumatized,” but completely ignore Cinderella’s trauma. They act like any criticism of Rapunzel’s actions is misogynistic, while turning around and mocking Cinderella as weak or “unfeminist” for not escaping her abusers on her own.

But you know what? Cinderella was stuck. That was her reality. Just like Rapunzel was stuck in a tower. And she bore her suffering with courage and hope. She never became bitter or cruel. And when love came—when freedom came—she embraced it without shame.

So why is that considered weak?

Because modern media has twisted strength into rebellion for rebellion’s sake. It praises rejection of commitment, distrust of love, and fear of partnership—especially when it comes to marriage. And it tells women they’re only “strong” when they push men away.

But that’s not feminism. That’s not empowerment. And it’s definitely not love.

💔 What Tangled: The Series really told us

It took the only major decision Rapunzel ever made in the original fairy tale—to marry the man she loved—and turned it into a fear, a flaw, a failure.

“When he asked her if she would take him as her husband, she thought, ‘He would rather have me than old Frau Gothel.’ She said yes and placed her hand into his.” — Rapunzel, by the Brothers Grimm

That was her strength. Her clarity. Her power. And Disney rewrote it into uncertainty, rejection, and punishment for the man who loved her.

Meanwhile, Cinderella made the exact same choice. And no one praised her for it. In fact, they mock her for marrying a prince. They mock her for “waiting for a man” to rescue her. When in truth, her choice was her liberation.

What makes this all the more frustrating is how Disney actively rewrote the historic truth of these fairy tales to push a modern yet deeply patriarchal message: that marriage is a prison for women but a dream for men. In doing so, they completely inverted the purpose of stories like Rapunzel and Cinderella, which originally framed marriage as a woman’s path to freedom from abuse. And to make that twisted message work, Disney had to rewrite Rapunzel’s class status, too—suddenly she’s a long-lost princess, meaning she can afford to reject marriage without risking her safety or livelihood. She’s given privilege, wealth, and freedom by birthright, and she only stops treating marriage to Flynn as a nightmare once she learns he’s secretly a prince. That’s not romantic—it’s classist. The message is clear: Flynn isn’t “good enough” unless he’s royal, and Rapunzel is allowed to view his love as a burden until his bloodline “justifies” her respect. This is worsened by her toxic friend Cassandra constantly mocking Flynn’s poor background, while Rapunzel stays silent. Yet somehow, people defend this behavior by saying Rapunzel is “traumatized,” completely ignoring that Flynn is traumatized too—and never treated her this way. Ironically, Cinderella endured the same trauma as Rapunzel, and never became cruel or emotionally abusive. She stayed kind, never blamed her trauma for mistreating others, and embraced love and marriage as a form of liberation. And yet she’s still labeled as weak or “unfeminist” by people who praise series-Rapunzel as “strong” simply for rejecting love and commitment. It’s a disgusting double standard. These same critics claim anyone in Rapunzel’s situation would have rejected a proposal—while mocking Cinderella for “not escaping sooner,” ignoring how trauma and historical limitations actually trapped her. The truth is, this isn’t about empathy or understanding trauma. It’s about selectively demonizing romantic women like Cinderella and celebrating coldness and distrust in characters like series-Rapunzel. And it reveals something dark: a cultural shift that increasingly hates marriage, love, and romance—especially when it’s a woman’s choice.

If loving someone and committing to them is “weak,” then maybe modern media has lost sight of what true strength even looks like.

Cinderella didn’t just survive trauma—she transcended it. She never let it turn her into someone cruel, cold, or afraid to love. That’s real power. That’s what a heroine looks like.

And it’s about time we stopped pretending otherwise.
