Top 5 Disney Princesses

When we imagine a Disney Princess, many of us picture a beautiful girl in a flowing dress with her prince charming. However, what defines a Disney Princess. Most people have a preconceived stereotype that Disney Princesses are dependent young girls who can't handle themselves. This is why I made a list of my personal favorite Top 5 Disney Princesses.


5. Merida

Like many in the list, Merida wasn't the first princess not to agree with the marriage plans set by her parents, but she went so far as to fight for her own hand in marriage. Merida also isn't on the best of terms with her own mother throughout much of the film, but she remains strong and learns her lessons.



4. Jasmine


Marriage was the LAST thing on Jasmine's mind throughout much of the movie, and even if it was, she refused to be inferior to any man. Princess Jasmine may not be the main character in her film, but she still manages to achieve what she wants due to her persistence. She is very head-strong and independent.



                                           3. Pocahontas

We all know that marriage wasn't the first thing on Pocahontas' mind at the beginning of the movie. Throughout the whole film, Pocahontas remained head-strong and independent, even after she met John Smith. Although she was borderline desperately in love, we won't judge because she still managed to save John's life as well as change the mentality of two armies of people.



2. Mulan

We all know Mulan is the famed heroine of China, and one thing that's unique about her is she pretty much did it all on her own. From the beginning of the story, we learned that Mulan is an independent girl who didn't need a man to get by. Despite everyone going against her, Mulan still was able to save the day.


1. Tiana

TIana, in my opinion, is the most head-strong and independent of all of the Disney Princesses. She is the only princess with a real job, and actually doesn't believe in the idea of a fairy tale dream come true. Even after she meets Naveen, she still proves the leader of the group, not only because Naveen is a lazy prince who can't really do anything, but she shows in her knowledge and skill that through hard work, dreams come true.
