And maybe your family and stuff like that could be really many different things. We're trying to kind of create something right now. So yeah, tell me below. Thank you. Bye
But if I were and I had a daughter, I would want her to feel strong when she wants to feel strong, to feel vulnerable, when she wants to feel vulnerable so that her emotions, she's free to express them, that she has the tools to be able to process them. I would love for her to be curious, to be able to ask questions and wonder, but also to play with her imagination so that it develops these ways of thinking as she goes forward

This is a great question, and I think Seeking Plum did a fantastic job. She's very eloquent and said a lot of things I would have said. But if you're looking for a more specific description of singular character, I don't know if there's one ideal Disney Princess conceptually, but I think any diversity within the Disney Princess archive would be very welcome. I've heard time and time again from people who don't feel represented by the characters that Disney presents, and they're getting better
But personally, I would specifically like to see a black Princess and a black Princess with a culturally black name, and that black name be used not as means for humor like it often is in media and where their blackness isn't where their identity stops. The Disney Princesses with nonwhite identities that we currently have seemed to be very centered, in my opinion, very centered around their non whiteness whatever that is
