Tale as Old as Time?

http://chelseamarie23.wordpress.com/2010/04/12/tale-as-old-as-time-a-false-sense-of-feminism-in-beauty-and-the-beast/

I chose this Blog Tale as Old as Time? A False Sense of Feminism in the Beauty and the Beast.
I chose this specific blog because I was obsessed with it when I was a young girl.  Also, this blog depicts the images and concepts of how Disney princess, though, are seemingly independent, still are categorized  as a stereotypical women. For example, Belle seems independent and strong willed, but when it comes down to it, she still seeks the love/ appreciation of a man in the end... "Happily Ever After".
This blog is congruent to articles we read and topics we have discussed in class.  Like the Disney classics, real life women are seen as different, by means of independency. But after all is said and done, it seems the stereotype of women, that they need a "good looking boyfriend" remains the TRUEST measure of happiness and success.
