Universal Issues Depicted in Fairy Tales
It was interesting to read fairy tales passed on by different cultures and ethnic groups. I was convinced that most fairy tales talk about marriage. The predominant stereotypes of princess reveal that if the main character has a kind mind and a beautiful facial feature, she can be transformed into a big success. This message psychologically affected many young women. It was once again eye-opening to know how in real life many women fantasize about a handsome, rich prince. The power of fairy tales is strong because regardless of their origins, they all contain universal issues of humans and delicately deliver women’s emotion upon obstacles and relationship with nature such as fish, and pigeons.
