This week real progress will be made on my essay. I already have a full outline describing paragraph by paragraph the direction of my essay. Also I have a strong intro paragraph with a clear thesis statement. Recently I found an essay written online in 1996, right after the release of Pocahantas that goes into detail about the retail stradegies involving the disney princesses and possible explanations as to why they have become so popular in recent years. My first paragraph will describe the anti-feminism present in the films. The second paragraph will explain these and why they are harmful to their target audience. And the third paragraph will show how Disney has used this collection of princesses to market a business worth billions of dollars.
