Princess

I was always called princess when I was little. I dreams at times of being Cinderella and having my very own prince charming find me and sweep me off my feet. In "Whats wrong with Cinderella" Peggy discusses how the whole idea of being a princess is whats wrong with girls in society today. I don't agree nor disagree but i feel she's going a little over board with the whole princess birthday parties. I had tea party birthday parties which actually taught us manners and let us have fun with our dolls. I consider myself a feminist but I would not want to hurt my child's creativity and imagination.
 That's why with the boy in "is my son wearing a dress", could just be playing dress up which is completely natural and i want my child to have the freedoms I had growing up to dress as I wish, tho it might be a little difficult to explain to others why I'm letting him wear a dress.

I didn't realize how big the "Princess Line" was making, according to the article "The Line Between Homage and Parody"
By BROOKS BARNES, the industry brings in $4 billion dollars..

When one door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often we look so long at the closed door
that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
