Observations

• Women are represented as weak and delicate thing over so many years…

• All the women whether she is a princess or any servant or any educated person, they need a man who settles their problems.

• No doctor can do anything…Only prince can cure minor problem to major disease.

• After meeting the prince only you can live happily ever after……

Let the princesses be free…….
