Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORWEN: And while we're at it, what sort of things can we add to all the other lands for girls? If some ducklings out there are so persistant about adding things for boys in Fantasyland, we would hope they would be just as concerned about supporting equal time for girls in all the other lands--which don't usually seem to consider the feminine persuasion as much as Fantasyland does. Maybe that's why Fantasyland has tended to cater so much to girls over the years since girls tastes aren't catered to so much in Tomorrowland, Frontierland or Adventureland.

I have two girls that grew up liking Ariel and Belle and Mulan far more than princesses... sure they'd love Cindy's coach for a wedding @ WDW..but all the pink princess stuff never had much place in our home ( nor did Barbie) -

That's why it often seems as though many men can appreciate princesses more than they might be willing to admit in public. We happen to know one such fellow who comes across as being very masculine in most of the traditional ways, but he has admitted to us how much he loves the Disney fairy tales and he's really looking forward to seeing Rapunzel's movie--which he hates calling Tangled.

Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORDDU: That would be a lot of fun, too. Yes indeed. Actually, something such as that would likely appeal to both genders.
