Cinderella story is alive and well in society today but it does set up societal pressures for men and women. Women have to be tall, beautiful, thin, in a bad situation, in a situation to be rescued. Men have to be rich, perfect, available, wealthy, and very VERY successful. Without having these things, men can never be the prince. If you're a woman and you don't need to be saved, you'll never be the princess. There needs to be a case where the man and the woman can save each other.
Cinderella and Pop Culture
- "Country Boys and City Girls", Fratellis
- Extreme Home Makeover
- Memoirs of a Geisha
- "Love Story" Taylor Swift
- "Fairytale" Sara Bareilles
- "A Sort of Fairytale" Tori Amos
- They learn to grow their other parts and accept each other for their faults too
Men and women have to cut of bits of their selves to be sexy and desirable. Women have to be stick skinny with large breasts and young, while men can be any age as long as they are rich and powerful, as shown in the couple Hugh Hefner and Holly Madison.
