[quote="Hourglass"][quote="Syera"]I like a balanced character, personally.  Someone with spunk, but not so over-the-top that she has to be a feminist at every turn.  I think Belle is probably an excellent example of what I have in mind.  She was an individual who didn't let people walk on her, but she wasn't a total rebel, and didn't have to constantly show people how kewl she was or how her ideals were superior.

And yes, I agree that while the ultra-spunky princess was fun for awhile, it's getting pretty old now.  *coughMary-SueTraitcough*

As for the "white" part, that's a problem with story's settings, not the characters themselves.

If Rapunzel is going to be a comic character, then I say GO FOR IT!!  GO FOR IT!  We need something fresh and new!  And a comic princess is something that hasn't been done yet![/quote]

Actually, the whole "white" issue is more on the fact of the times.  We're still in a time where we see white women as the "ideal old-fashioned" woman.

Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella were all in imaginary kingdoms... they could have been any race.[/quote]
