Fairy Tales & Gender Roles

I agree with this article in so many ways because I learn how many fairy tale stories always end with this happy ending, and most of the time the main characters are always to be pretty and handsome. Many children are to learn that beauty is your outsidde by what the fairy tales message is giving. They are showing that this beautiful girls finds the guy of her dreams and she is really pretty and sweet. Being femminie is always known in fairytales as wearing the prettyest dresses and living in a castle but, from now on media is been trying to make some changes around in all this products that been advertised. Many parrents read this to their children with ot the knowldge of knowing our going over that this farytales just show the outside beauty most of the time. That involves my parrents that read all these stories and I used to love them and being called a princes was known as being cute and pretty and for many other girls too. Years later on where changed and a good point I agrree with in the article was the recent fairy tale of Shrek becasue they chanded the normall version of a "once upon time" with a charming prince and instead of the princess being beautiful she is but she actually an orge. Shrek is a good example of showing the normal beuty and you could be loved by how your personally is and not carring about your outside. Ithink shrek show a lot and gave a good example to the children.
