Mulan demonstrates that women can be and do more than just look pretty and wait for a “prince” to come and rescue them. But Mulan breaks these stereotypes and provides a different idea of a powerful princess. The typical “Cinderella Princess” inspire little girls to dress pretty, to wear makeup, so they can be rescue and love by a prince, which relates to Bartky when he states that “Women are controlled by society more because they have to regulate their appearances with makeup, certain clothes, behaviors” (Bartky, 1997:26). The typical Disney princesses are often dressed with big dresses, use makeup to look better or do chores like Cinderella who waits for a price to love and and rescue her. The film Mulan introduces a totally different women perspective and it breaks stereotypes and objectification among women. This critical analysis is persuasive and successful at bringing awareness to its readers because of the real life examples stereotypes and objectification among women, sexuallity and gender favoritism and finally the strength in femininity, over physical power.

Mulan has been one of the most exceptional movie for its analysis of gender and sexuality. Nowadays, it is important to provide our new generation with the courage and motivation to success in life and overcome stereotypes that oppress women. It also presents non traditional families, people of color in top roles and it breaks the usual norms of Disney princess storytelling, which it is something important for our new generation. Mulan brought many critics among different cultures, but specially Chinese culture because the movie confused Chinese traditions with Japan traditions which are not the same. This is why Mulan is one of my favorite animation movies, because it breaks stereotypes and typical women cultural perspectives.
