Ever thought of what the writing behind fairy tails really is?
What are the symbolisms and meanings behind every story?
What are the symbolisms and meanings behind every story?
If you look closely or rather think of the stories they don't
guardian you cannot survive alone and need another male to look after you in order to survive?
if you are wearing red to go out you really do not intend to go about unnoticed.
seem to be far from the teachings you get as you grow up in the traditional sense.
Snow white for example had the bad step mother, nightmare for every child losing their mother but also the negative thinking of a woman getting married to a widower with children.
Snow white for example preferred to stay with 7 guys that couldn't satisfy her needs than be alone. Doesn't that ring a bell to insecure people? I shall think so! And the slut instead of appreciating all the things the dwarfs did for her and how they protected her what does she do?
lives them and runs of as soon as the good looking prince on the horse shakes his little thing
in front of her. Typical human behaviour.
Now the mirror...well this is my favourite symbolism in this tale. The mirror is always the
reflection we have of our selves. It wasn't some magic little gadget it was the way the bad
step mum saw herself and as soon snow white became 18, therefore a full grown woman,
the queen felt threatened by her so started to see herself in the mirror differently as her perception
of herself changed.
As many fairy tale princesses, snow white had father issues. Is it a coincidence that snow white,
Cinderella and others had lost their fathers and became unprotected in the wicked world?
Isn't this an idea promoting to young girls when reading them this story that if you lose your male
guardian you cannot survive alone and need another male to look after you in order to survive?
Isn't that the reason that they all end up with a husband at the end? And what a coincidence he is rich. famous, popular and good looking! Right! Nice values to teach children that it is anything but the personality that counts!
Of course we never get to hear what happens after the happily ever after and the cheating of the prince with the staff of the castle! And lets not mention how Cinderella offers an answer as to how shoes can change your life - never mind that her shoe was from glass therefore fragile......
I have been also been thinking of red ridding hood. Now I think that that poor wolf has been treated rather unfairly both in this tale and the one with the three little pigs and this is why:
Red riding hood was a girl first of all wearing red. Now, I don;t mean to sound rude but common
if you are wearing red to go out you really do not intend to go about unnoticed.
So she's told by mum not to go through the forest. Obviously red riding hood isn't that young otherwise she would not be allowed to go out alone. So what does the little tart do? Go through the fucking forest
so my guess is that she was asking for it! Not to mention how the poor wolf ended up getting the blame. Oh yeah it was the animals fault for wanting to eat when hungry how stupid. This is very similar to capturing wild animals for shows or zoos and when they snap and eat someone is always somehow their fault for having instincts!
Now, as far as the three pigs go common people can't keep their hands of bacon and meat in general and stuff their faces with burgers but the wolf is bad for wanting to eat the pigs? OK whatever.....
Of course there is always the good teachings of fairy tales such as the frog that turned into a prince and beauty and the beast which pass a positive meaning but still nobody tells you what happens when the prince you meet turns into a frog which actually is what usually happens after a while.
So fairy tales to me are a sort of 'brainwashing' making girls believe they need a man to look after them, especially a specific type. The one that comes on a horse that is! After all is it by chance that fairy tales have been written by men? Something like the bible and the position it places women ;)
Just think about it.....
