Today I want to write about women who break the stereotype of the fairy tales about "princesses" Disney, the "Barbies" and clichés like that. Although we are in the XXI century, the female stereotype is still very strong. One reason for this is so is that from the same fairy tales are established that evoke imaginary "princess" as an ideal woman. Video games and many of the big Hollywood movies that stereotype that permeates relayed heavily on the minds of children. And this is how from childhood itself an outdated model we feed on the condition of genres.

The traditional fairy tales are very similar to each other narrative structure. They are all great love stories, where the center of the conflict is unfairly treated by fate woman. All, without exception, solve the problem by two factors: the magical intervention of another woman, the fairy, and ultimate salvation thanks to a prince. These stories end with the elevation of the star quality "Princess", within an enchanted kingdom. This type of arguments and resolutions are reproduced hundreds of times, with obvious adaptations in different  series and current films. But perhaps you wonder: why have to be negative if these stories finally, what is privileged is justice and happiness in love? They are not "white history" with a moral in which love and caring girls end up triumphing ?.

I answer: The most troublesome of these stories is that they distort the essence of many values. For example, arbitrarily linking the goodness with beauty. "Princess" is always good, but also beautiful. No ugly princesses. The ugly are conspiring against her, basically because of envy. Also they inculcate the idea that the greatest triumph for women is to find your prince. Thereby it is transmitting the wrong idea of ​​love. In real love, the story begins where fairy tales end. We do not live happily ever after, but coexistence means the toughest challenges for the couple. And no prince, but a man made of flesh and blood can not always meet the expectations of a girl who wants to idealize. Finally, this kind of fanciful elaborations leads to frustration, unhappiness. Although it costs to believe, many people suffer all his life for not finding the ideal woman, a man, or love, instead of being happy with the actual situations that life brings you.

In real life there are a large majority of women who were not waiting for a prince to save them, but that neither saved nor were waiting. In their stories of love itself there are contradictions, dropouts and failures. There is also great achievements and independent individual development to the vicissitudes of love couple. Contrary to what might be expected, these stories do not disappoint, but represent a new type of interest: the interest in the real world. There are women who are not the typical angelic blonde found her prince dreamed. These women sometimes marked by illness, or any situation that life has given them very young, but they live passionate and contradictory stories of love with men who resemble nothing "Kent" eternal boyfriend of Barbie.

Violeta Parra, the great Chilean artist, could not be the woman who missed her first husband. They were not happily ever after, but separated. The first daughter by her second husband died two years. His famous song "Thanks to Life" was composed after recovering from a suicide attempt. And the beautiful theme "Back to the 17" he wrote to Peter Messone, who surpassed for 21 years. It was certainly the kind of woman who would inspire a Disney story.

Many anti-princesses of flesh and blood and have them goes my tribute and admiration for left and left deep imprint on the world for his refusal to be and act as a stereotype. Endowed with a great personality women who are able to confront the prejudices and dare to be free. So, certainly, I can say: Long live the anti-princesses!
