How people perceive someone's sex or gender is definitely personified in many aspects of culture, from the media to subcultural traditions and rituals. Never is this a clearer case than in the Disney films, which feature heavily-marketed ‘princesses’ (e.g. Belle, Jasmine, Snow White) who are meant to personify the media messages aimed at girls. However, in 1998 the Disney animated film Mulan presented one of these ‘princesses’ in a different light; the titular character is a strong-willed, independent girl who wishes to stand up for herself and forge her own path. In this way, the portrayal of Mulan in ...

This trend began in the wake of the Great Depression; while it was largely the mobilization of industry for World War II that brought ...
