“Realistic” body image better portrayed through a fairy than a human?

posted by PiiXiiE

Now this is just my point of view, but I find it a little bit ironic that one of the most realistically portrayed 디즈니 females comes in the shape of a pixie! When it comes to typical proportions, the average woman can 더 많이 easily identify with a winged sprite?! I mean, not everybody has a beautiful hourglass figure! Having somebody who is a little bottom-heavy is comforting.

While Tinker 벨 does have a super-skinny waist, she is the only 디즈니 female I have seen whose lower body is not exactly proportionate to her upper body.

Stuck

When I realized this, it made me feel so much better as a slightly pear-shaped person! (Hooray for link!) Unfortunately, the movie demonstrates that Tink is not very comfortable with her hip circumference. (Recall the scene where she’s checking herself in the mirror and gets stuck in the keyhole.)

Insecurity

It’s just a shame that we only find this type of thing in the secondary character department.

The über-skinny Megara

For the most part, the 디즈니 princess have gorgeous bodies with unbelievably trim waists. (Don’t even get me started on Megara in Hercules.) Though I can’t blame the 디즈니 animators for doing this – they are, after all, supposed to be fairy tale princesses, right? – it does not help with the growing self-esteem issues in young girls.

I did not mean for this to be a criticism of the unrealistic body ideals that have been put into the minds of today’s young female viewers, so I just want to end this 의해 saying, thank you, 디즈니 animator link, for giving us an adorable fairy with a little "junk in the trunk." :)

Rock it!

*Margaret Kerry was the model for Tinker 벨 in Disney's 1953 animated version of Peter Pan and Marc Davis was the lead animator who brought her to life (as stated in link).

Mongoose09 Wow, I've never really thought about that! But now you mention it, Tinkerbell does have one of the most realistic bodies out of all the Disney characters! Good article!!

47misty I never really noticed that either. Who wouldn't notice Meg?? XD Does she even eat??? XD

royalpixiegirl I can relate to Tinker Bell. My family thinks I have big (or, fat) buttocks, but I just realized (before seeing this) that Tinker Bell's lower half is wider than her upper half. She, of course, is a beautiful fairy (every fairy in the franchise is beautiful), so this article sorta helps my self-esteem. Except that I have a small head than what I should have for my age (I'm 16) and height. Maybe if I was a hand-size fairy, I'd look so much better, since Queen Clarion is the only tallest fairy, and with my small head would be like 5'3 or less in human size if Tinker Bell's literal/physical size.

PiiXiiE Hi royalpixiegirl! I'm so happy this article helped you! Who's to say what people should and shouldn't look like? Embrace yourself just as you are. I hope you find true happiness and are able to to love yourself for the truly amazing person you are! Believe in yourself and love yourself! :)

sunnyfields I noticed that the Disney fairies all have different body shapes, so that is reflective, of course, in the fairy that started it all - Tinker Bell. :)

Dpm12 Realistic or not, she has a hot fucking body

저기요 yal! What's up? This is the part of the story that I come in. I had just woke up and I walked downstairs to get some breakfast. As I walked 의해 the downstairs hallway I saw three little kids asleep. The kids looked like they were twelve years old and for some reason they were naked.

The 초 child is a beautiful little girl wearing a 담홍색, 핑크 collar; with gorgeous blonde hair that seemed at if it glew(That covered most of her naked body), blossem 담홍색, 핑크 lips, pale skin, and a lovely...
