Why does Disney's Aladdin appeal to many women?

What is it about this one that makes it such a favorite for them?

Because Jasmine is fine as hell. That's why I always liked it anyway, she was always the prettiest princess. Her and Pocohontas.

@GreenGoddess That's a good enough reason as any

A dishevelled urchin becomes a prince. - This never happens in real life.

@KaiserSolze It's not often you see a stuffed bear wander around in the woods either

@Jackaloftheazuresand I'm not sure many women have large stuffed bear fantasy. Turning an urchin into a prince, yeah. I hate the little mermaid. Dumb mermaid wants legs because of a guy.

Our incessant need to sing show tunes.

@Starcrossed Well what about the other movies?

Starcrossed · 41-45, F

@Jackaloftheazuresand per capita, I'd say Aladdin has more desirable sing-along-able songs in female range than most others. Beauty and the Beast is up there but Little Mermaid takes the cake.

It's that street rat that every woman wants to find, turn into a prince, and say, "Look what I found and accomplished." Add the dark skin too. I'm sure it's somewhere around all that.

@froggtongue I thought it had more to do with the captive princess angle

froggtongue · M

@Jackaloftheazuresand For sure could also be part of it. Maybe it's because it has all those things and so they can focus on whatever it is they like best.

It's just a movie it's not that deep

Also, Mulan is clearly far superior

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

@SW-User That was the other big one but I'm pretty sure of the reasons for that one being popular

froggtongue · M

@Jackaloftheazuresand I never saw it. So what's your reason on why Mulan is popular?

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

@froggtongue Women like how she went out and took the place of a man and was just as valuable as any of the others, it was empowering to them

@Jackaloftheazuresand honestly this is one of my least favorite disney movies....

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

@SailorMarz I never even saw this one because it never interested me but I see it on surveys all the time and lo and behold it's common for those that pick it to be women

SailorMarz · F

@Jackaloftheazuresand almost all of the characters annoyed me. Even the genie lol

Because he has a monkey 😜

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M

@Somewhereovertherainbow Mowgli had lots of monkeys, he was practically a monkey himself and sort of Tarzan

@Jackaloftheazuresand 😍

SW-User

Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
