the Guardian - " It's men either devious or daft while it's woman are outspoken and powerful"
This quote shows how Disney are changing the ways male and female characters are represented. Males used to be seen as strong, brave and the hero of the stories like in Hercules (1997), where the lead protagonist saves the damsel in distress. And yes, it's good that the female role is becoming more dominant and independent, but the males would like to have there courageous role returned. Some reasons why this is a good idea to have more heroes like Hercules, is so young boys can have a role model growing up and if they see a 'devious or daft' male they think that is what they should be.
