Alright men, favorite Disney Princess (TM) and why?
If you want to answer a girl not on the list, you have to make a really convincing argument.
I've never been able to enjoy Disney. Only as background children's entertainment for my children. If I had to pick a princess, it would be Leia or Mononoke. Interesting, complex characters with lots to think about once the film is over.
Well, Disney bought Star Wars, so Leia is technically a Disney Princess.
Disney also owned the exclusive english-language international distribution rights for Studio Ghibli from the mid-1990s until the mid-2010s through Miramax, so San/Mononoke,when voiced by Claire Danes, is technically a Disney Princess, too.
On that note, Disney owns 20th Century which, via Brandywine, owns the Aliens franchise, so the Xenomorph Queen is also technically a Disney Princess.
What’s the nicest thing a woman could do for you?
Be dozing on my couch, warmed by the dappled shafts of sunlight sneaking past the trees and between the blinds, and stretch sleepily like some sexy naked tiger as I pass by on my way out to work.
I do not actually have a goodexplanation for why that memory was what the meat computer decided to pull out of storage to associate with your question.
women throughout history who have died in childbirth
How incredibly
not unexpected it would be for a first-time-mother to die in childbirth makes this whole "her memory haunted the village" theme a bit of a hard sell. Her husband is gonna be fucked up about it, as he was the one whose endogenous oxytocin addiction was tied to her, his dealer just abruptly cut him off cold-turkey, and he's in withdrawal, but everyone else in the village? Tragic. Oh, well. Anyway.
Something not pointed out about the Yorkshire-Father-w/-Son-Killed-in-Somme vignette is how, despite being intrusive and irrational, his grief is still deeply analytical.
He's identified a problem, and is tracing it backwards to examine all the things that he could've done differently that perhaps would have prevented it. (This, btw, is the OG definition of "victim blaming" before it was maladapted into weaponized therapyspeke.)
Grief resolves as you check these off, one-by-one, and conclude there's no good reason you'd have done anything differently and/or it wouldn't have actually changed anything if you had. Or, rarely, that you
should've done something differently, and you've learned all you can from it to make better choices in the future (if relevant).
This is a significant factor in why therapy styles based on what's most
profitable effective with female
marks patients falls flat with males.
A woman tells you her problems and the thoughts she's had about those problems and is satisfied if you agree and affirm, yes, that is a problem and she's right to feel whatever way.
A man tells you his problem, et al. because maybe a fresh set of eyes will see some potential solution or different angle he's missed. He is satisfied if you agree snd confirm that he's correctly thought all the thoughts, there's no need to continue thinking about it.
Note: "there's no need to continue thinking about it" may mean it's now time to take action. So if you talk to a man and confirm for him that, yep, life sucks and, yep, it's probably gonna continue this way indefinitely with no reasonable expectation of improvement, he may genuinely thank you, genuinely feel like a great burden has been lifted from his shoulders, and genuinely cheerfully go home to suck-start a shotgun. Problem: solved.
