Wow, move Tiana over one and suddenly all the PoC princesses are in the very back. I mean, did the people that made this lineup not see how racist this appears?
Mhmm. So not surprised
ew i hate the redesign and also why would you put Mulan in the outfit she wore to see the matchmaker, which she hated because it didn’t really represent her?
GOD DAMMIT MULAN IS NOT A PRINCESS SHE MARRIED A GENERAL
I like how someone read all this and at the end of it all was truly outraged that…
Mulan is in the lineup
I love how all of them were gussied up an glitz’d and glamour’d EXCEPT Pocahontas.
Like she looks like she was thrown in as an afterthought.They actually redesigned her, but people got pissed off that she was redesigned.
Y’all are shitty. You want change and then when it’s given, you all rage.
Just stop.
And guess what? The ones in the center are the most popular - they’re put there because they’re the ones most likely to get attention. Why would they put someone less popular in the front? There’s a reason the frontman of a band is usually in the front in pictures - they’re the ones most easily recognized. It’s simple marketing.
you know what i don’t understand? the fact that you guys are complaining about a bunch of FUCKING CARTOONS! get the fuck off my post!
“it’s simple marketing” says the person who comes to the conversation 500 years late. Please, try to convince me that Mulan is not a fan favorite, I’m waiting.
And you know what? If a company consistently markets white princesses as central to the brand- and they ALWAYS do, either just throwing in one WoC princess or 0 for smaller group merchandising, then yeah, people will associate the front princesses more with being princesses. Go back to marketing 101, you have a hand in creating the market for your product.
Also like, what is that logic even? Like the marketing of the entire line up would be off, they would lose money, just by putting Tiana and Jasmine- who are both also pretty popular princesses actually- up closer to the front?? Really. You won’t even be able to find stats for who the most popular princesses are- you’re just assuming it couldn’t be the women of color. I disagree. Although I can only find not super official stats, they do indicate that Jasmine and Mulan are favorites of the fandom.
Also lol at this last guy- when I reblogged it from you it had like 10 posts, and it’s not like you drew the thing yourself. Go back to the library and pick up a psych book on child development so that you can figure out why cartoons are not immune from critique
There is so many things wrong with this picture, as shown by some of the replies above. Its completely outrageous.
