It's Only Platonic


Disney princess movies in a nutshell:

A helpless princess without a brain is trapped in a tower

An attractive prince, who somehow found the tower, comes to save the day

The hero complex occurs

They get married in a day

and it somehow works out

without them truly knowing each other.

 

Then the crime Disney movies

where the princess is a strong independent woman,

but she always falls in love with her

macho, crime-fighting husband.

Maybe she should consider that

just because the guy saved her life doesn't mean

that they're perfect for each other.

Platonic love is truly is the best love.

It's the love where you don't need physical attraction

or the touch of someone's lips,

so you know you really love them.

Maybe Disney can learn how to be more realistic.
