Esmerelda, Megara, Mulan, Alice and Tink
NOT PRINCESSES!
So why are they put with the other princesses? It's kind of annoying.
Okay, I do like Mulan and it would be awesome if she were a princess. That way, Jasmine wouldn't be the only one who could throw a good punch. Mulan is a good role model for kids to emulate, but she's still not an offical princesses. And technically Megara is sort of a princess since we all assume she married Herc who is kind of like a prince since his dad is the king of all the other gods.
And what about Jane from Tarzan? Technically, I guess she would be "princess of the jungle" or something. Or since Tarzan is "King of the Jungle" that would make her queen.
My head1 It hurts! |

Because Disney is trying to market the idea that "Every girl is a princess" including their own characters who are not.
I really still say they should make a heroine collection, but then there's that whole aspect of "A princess sounds more appealing to little girls than being a heroine" that would defeat that. That, and a lot of people don't even know of the female characters past Nala because "omfg evry dizne movee passed teh lion king iz teh suxors!!11" |

Belle isn't really a princess, either. _________________ "I too am a member of your species, Captain, or I was. Perhaps I am not anymore. Perhaps you are right in thinking of me as an alien. I know I am different from you. You see-I do not kill." |

The thing is, adding the word "princess" in some way to a character increases her coolerosity exponentially.
*Gags* Stupid "Angel" and "Princess" slogan clothing. Yuck. _________________

I personally prefer my clothing textless... unless it's REALLY good.
One shirt that I ALMOST would have worn was "I suffer from PMS: Putting up with Men's S--t." Except it wasn't blanked out.
As much as that shirt cracked me up, I'm just slightly too polite to go running around with swear words on my clothing, heheh. _________________

You should wear it lol! except its kind of annoying when people read your shirt everywhere you go. My friend had a shirt with this whole long poem on the back. It was a nice shirt, but everyone kept asking her to stand still so they could read it all. |
