In their movie, Aladdin really loves and respects Jasmine.
Here are my preferito things about Jasmine:
She always stands up for herself. I Amore Jasmine's style- she always stands up for herself and what she believes in. I don't think she's rude, selfish o unappreciative- how would te feel if te were trapped your whole life and forced to marry a pompous jerk who doesn't care about you? She might not have to clean all giorno like Cenerentola o Snow White, but gelsomino has issues too, and she decided to stand up for herself when she was being treated like property.
She's adventurous. I can relate to this, because, although I Amore my mid-sized town, I often get bored of it, I long to see the world. gelsomino has it much worse, because she has been stuck in the palace her whole life! She wants to get out and see all there is to see, do all there is to do. Some may argue that she has everything, but she knows that she wants so much più than the riches of royalty.
She's clever. As she detto when she was pole vaulting over the roofs of Agrabah with Aladdin, gelsomino is a fast learner and thinker. She also figured out when he was lying to her da asking a smart question, and although it was quite disturbing and nasty, it was pretty clever for her to distract Jafar da seducing him. It's true, and Aladdin even admitted it (It's so cute when he's lovesick over her!)
She wears pants. This is a no-brainer. And who could pull off those harem pants better than Jasmine?
Here are some commonly stated opinions against Jasmine:
"She is so rude to her father/Aladdin/everyone." Like I detto before, gelsomino was only standing up for herself after putting up with years of crud. How would te feel if te were in her position? She is just a little più feisty than some of the other princesses.
"She's hypocritical- she detto she wasn't a prize to be won, and she let Aladdin treat her like a prize!" This is just my opinion, but I think there's a difference there. When Aladdin tried so hard to get her, it was out of sheer Amore and respect for Jasmine. When he, the Sultan, and Jafar were fighting over who would marry her, that was not so respectful- each of them were trying to decide Jasmine's fate when obviously that was hers to decide. She had a right to put them in their place!
"Jasmine is stupid for thinking she could just give a little boy an mela, apple without paying for it." Well, she was locked up her whole life, what do te expect? She was just being kind, and that vendor may have overreacted a tad... just saying...
"Jasmine is ungrateful and spoiled." Just because she lived in a palace doesn't make her life amazing. For heaven's sake, she was LOCKED UP in her palace! She had no freedom o real friends, but her cuore longed for adventure. Maybe she didn't have to do grueling work all day, and maybe she didn't have any physical problems, but mental health is just as important and her life was just as bad as any other princess'.
I am not saying in any way that gelsomino has no flaws. She does. However, sometimes people degrade her in a way that forgets how cool she really is! (in my humble opinion, of course) Thanks for Leggere and please commento to tell me what te think!
