Ugh
Passive femininity stigma: Anna's first because she's extremely passive and reactive. She's dependent on other people's decisions to dictate her life, instead of taking matters into her own hands. She's lonely because her parents close the gates and her sister decides to keep them closed. So you'd think she'd take matters into her own hands, befriend the castle staff, take walks or rides outside the castle, reach out to other nobility and go visit them in their castles elsewhere, right? Wrong. She sits around the empty halls, interacts with inanimate objects instead of real people, and just passively waits for other people to make her life into the one she wants.
"Shows that women are as competent and capable as men" standard: She's not very smart or competent. Even though she was not raised to be a monarch like her sister, she still never studies, trains, or takes up any hobbies or crafts. And of course she needs Kristoff's, Sven's and Olaf's help every step of the journey (and even carry her through the end of it) because the narrative makes it clear she'd get nowhere without them. Loses her horse first thing, decides to travel at night when there's wolves out, needs Kristoff's sleigh and expertise, tries to climb a cliff to get to Elsa and not only doesn't even make it a few feet, but needs Olaf to point out there are stairs, needs Kristoff to get her around and Olaf to save her from freezing near the end. Ugh-dskfksnd
It's especially bad because Gerda from the original story braved the journey alone. Granted, she was able to because she got help by charming people and animals she encountered along the way (and even Jesus) with her feminine sweetness and purity. But then most of them were other girls and women! But since this movie tries to give the illusion of "Rah! Rah! Girl power!" and our heroine needs the all-male-except-her-sister cast to help her every two steps... it's more glaring to me.
And of course, the one everyone comments on: "Her motivation is to find true love." I know her sister shuts her out and she turns to romantic love as a substitute for the love she doesn't get, but still. No ambition, no pro-activity, no real identity beyond being Elsa's sister and Hans' and Kristoff's love interest.
Not saying she's anti-feminist per se, but based on the usual criteria compared to everyone else on this list: she comes up short.
But I don't think Anna is passive like some are saying. She is really more active than Elsa.
But again, this fixation on being proactive has absolutely nothing to do with feminism. People use the feminist polls as an excuse to list why they dislike the princesses they dislike.
Rapunzel was able to protect herself, wanted to give her freedom for Flynn and didn't fit as much in the gender roles. Elsa also protected herself and said you can't marry a man you just met and is an unmarried Queen in her kingdom.
That's why. But not being feminist-ic doesn't mean you are a bad role-model.
Dependent on men? Big time. Both emotionally ("in love with love") and physically (needs the male side characters to help her and save her every step of the journey).
Displays competence in traditionally male celebrated traits, like leadership, initiative, independence, etc? No, one of her main traits is she's a perpetual screw up... which she never really grows out of. It just serves to make her more endearing to and reason to get rescued by Kristoff, and Elsa at the end.
I don't see how Elsa is NOT unfeminist. (I'm not a feminist so I don't hate her for that or anything.) Like I said, she's pretty passive when she isn't just running and hiding. Not having a boyfriend has nothing to do with feminism. I haven't heard a single good argument for her being feminist beyond "she doesn't want a man". Which we don't know anyway, it's never mentioned.
Anna doesn't really depend on anyone but Kristoff, and at least she makes him help her similarly to Rapunzel, who is always hailed as a feminist icon for outright blackmailing Flynn.
@Iwasneverhere You didn't even give a fricking reason. I really don't give a crap if you dislike Elsa or not, but not once did you give a fricking reason other then basically saying, "I dislike Elsa, so, I'm picking her." You are so biased iwasneverhere it is beyond me. Also the fact that you're an adult doesn't make how you act a two-year-old any better...-_-
Also I'm with LupinPrincess on this one. She hit the nail on the proverbial head.
