‘Feminists’ Want Sleeping Beauty Banned

21

A mother of a 6-year-old boy has asked her son’s school to stop reading the fairy tale classic “Sleeping Beauty.” Why?

She says it promotes what she calls “inappropriate sexual behavior.”

“Sleeping Beauty,” that childhood classic, is now under fire from the left for promoting what one mother claims is “inappropriate sexual behavior.”

Yes — even kids’ fairy tales aren’t safe from the loony designs of the left.

Story continues below advertisement

The Independent has more:

Sarah Hall from Newcastle has been mocked this week for asking her six-year-old son’s school to remove a storybook version of “Sleeping Beauty” from the curriculum because it promotes “inappropriate sexual behaviour”.

The original version, written by an Italian poet in the 16th century, is really creepy. It tells the story of a princess who falls asleep in a castle and is raped by a king. When she wakes, she miraculously falls in love with the man who has defiled her, they marry and she has twins. Subsequent versions involve good and bad fairies, curses and the prince who wakens the princess from a 100-year slumber with a kiss.

Sarah Hall asked if the story was “still relevant” and made the excellent suggestion that it could be used to start a conversation with older children about consent, and how the sleeping princess might feel being woken by a stranger in her home.

Children need to learn boundaries and when to trust strangers, so do traditional fairytales belong in the modern world of social media? Even as a child, I thought most of these fables were pathetic – from “Little Red Riding Hood” to “Goldilocks and the Three Bears” and “The Princess and the Pea”, they seemed primarily designed to instil fear and anxiety in their readers, me included.

Even as a child, I thought most of these fables were pathetic

I have a book of fairy tales edited by Shirley Temple Black (nee Temple) that quite charmed me as a child when it was read to me. I recall it as my first efforts to read independently. In due course, I outgrew it, or so I thought. I was in graduate school when I ran across the book in an attic, and once again was charmed by it and have treasured it ever since. It allows a child’s imagination to soar. Admittedly, Temple removed the gruesome aspects of some of the tales which, in their original form, had some “grimm” aspects which, I suspect, reflected life as experienced by the common folk of yesteryear.

Sarah Hall, or whoever expressed the sentiment above, strikes me as a churl.

Women today are asleep but most of them are anythign but beauties. Enjoy your feministic nightmare that is ruining everything. A least the muslims don’t let these feminist pollute the world. Unless it’s a strategy to destroy the non muslim.

Pollution is not gender specific. It has been seen and noted that the world has been thrown into chaos by men, in most instances, men. Why? It is simple. Physical strength.

Simple, huh? I might suggest that there is something else simple at work here.

Another perspective on the origin of chaos might be: cherchez la femme!

Sleeping beauty is a beloved fairy tale. Get minds out of gutter. This is a child’s tale. Resist insanity, and the utter nonsense of the left. Save your books, start your own production companies, build your schools, read, educate your children in the fields that matter. Afterthought, spend time with your children, where applicable, try gentle deprogramming. Find out what they are being taught in school.

Soueeeee feminist feminist feminist, here is an updated “Sleeping Beauty” just for you.

15 – Sleeping Beauty

It was a dark and stormy night, time to flog this change of opening, as “once upon a time” is about due for hiatus. The “Queen”, in the sense of being a female member of the nobility, related to the “King” by virtue of a recognized, documented and wholly accepted ritual called “marriage”. Was in labour, not manual labour such as a common wench of the proletariat might be, but, the throes of child birth, as in procreation of the species. The birth proceeded as such things are wont to do, with an assortment of midwives, medical practitioners and assorted members of the medical establishment in attendance, as per requirements in the Kingdoms health act stipulated, complete with great rejoicing throughout the land, when the Queen brought forth a female type girl into the population, a Princess if you will, even a passably cute one, not to say that every girl at birth is not cute, but it is important to be non judgmental, with the child’s self esteem to be cultivated from the earliest possible moment. As a result of the experiences of child birth, the Queen went to a family planning clinic, thus guaranteeing a female inheritor to the nation’s throne, in due course.

A reasonable time was allowed to pass before, in an ecumenical non partisan interfaith celebration of procreation and investiture with the nebulous future of the spiritual awaking that is said to occur in the future, the non denominational fairies of the glades and bowers were invited to invoke appropriate deity neutral specific accolades for assorted pleasantries, both physical and attitudinal. There were three ectoplasmic like mythical persons, fairies, being the colloquial term generally applied to those of their description, they were empowered feminists with the ability to perpetuate the myth of the beautiful helpless needy Princess aura that permeates literature. In keeping with progressive feminist views, the first “fairy” went to the Princess, who look blankly at her as babies are inclined to do. The first fairy gave the princess the gift of environmental awareness with a profound active social conscience and the intelligence to wisely use her abilities to benefit humanity. The second “fairy” gave her big boobs, because if the Princess planned on attracting someone for procreational or recreational intimacy, she was going to need them. The baby Princess smiled. Then, there was an explosion and a bad smell, a jinn, who was definitely not invited, broke into the proceedings. She cackled the islamic curse, “all is fubar” then screamed at no one in particular, “by the short and insufficient appurtenance of the profit, police beat upon him, your precious Princess will open a qur’an on her sixteenth birthday and convert to islam”. Then she dissipated in a bad smell. “Well that really sucks”, said everyone, “a beautiful Princess should not be imprisoned in a burka”. The king ordered every qur’an in the land burned. His popularity had to be quantified using scientific notation. The third fairy, as the etherial personages were now being referred to fluttered forward and said. “As I have not given my gift yet, I cannot undo the jinn’s evil curse, but can modify, edit and rewrite it”. “The Princess will not convert to islam, where will merely fall asleep util a true crusader arrives and with as reasonably pure passably chaste kiss, awakens her to any number of joys in a non islamic world. Then the three fairies disappeared, going back to the glades and bowers, rather pleased that no one actually used the term “fairy” to mean anything but what it is. This is a “gotcha” to those thinking that the old war horse of “fairies” was going to be trotted out. Giggle, fool them.

Time passed, the Princess grew into a beautiful, though somewhat top heavy maiden. This is not to judge her or draw attention to her “bazongas” but to illustrate the power of non protoplasmic entities. She was also a good listener and an eloquent conversationalist, more evidence of spritely intervention. On her sixteenth birthday, she went for a walk around the castle grounds, in an old dome covered building, a “mosque” some anachronism of a primitive unenlightened age, the building now served far more useful purpose, as the royal bacon smoke house, she met a garbage bag. Upon closer examination it was an unidentifiable person wearing what appeared to be a “kitchen catcher” but was some sort of culturally uninspired ethnic costume. The bag person, stood up, a breeze puffed out of nowhere. lifting the covering and blowing it over the persons head. Turned out it was a somewhat bruised and beaten female wearing the latest from the muslim equivalent of “Victoria’s secret catalogue” “Aishah’s secret catalogue”. All sorts of islamic erotica, slinky body stockings that looked like domestic animals, eau d’ barnyard, and assorted bandages and splints to cover the bruises and cuts, while retaining an aura of erotic desert mystique. The figure in the burka was actually the evil jinn that cursed the princess sixteen years earlier, but despite the gifts from the first fairy, her memory of the occasion was non existent.

The “jinn” or islamic witch invited the Princess to look at what she said was a catalogue of fashion delights suitable for a blossoming Princess, when in fact it was a qur’an, that the jinn had kept for this particular occasion. The old rum soaked jinn hag definitely held a grudge. The Princess opened it, expecting to see foundation garments applicable to her upper stories. What she saw was stars, as she fell on the lawn into a deep sleep. Cackling loud enough to attack the attention of assorted camp followers and hangers on that are around every castle, the jinn left to build a ginger bread cottage, that is another story.

A crowd of knuckle dragging slack jawed mouth breathers with Barry Manilow on their ipods, formed around the now slumbering Princess. As is with every gathering of no minded individuals, there were suggestions of what to do, the consensus rapidly being reached that it would be advisable to loosen any restrictive clothing so she could breath better. Several volunteers came forward, with considerable animated discussion as to qualifications and ability. As usual, nothing got done. The king heard the commotion so he sent a promenade of fops and dandies to investigate. They carried the Princess back on a stretched out poltroon. Then put her in a recliner chair in front of the tv with a remote in her hand and waited. The hope being she would get so bored and disgusted by reality shows she would wake up. Eventually someone remembered the details of the jinn witch’s curse, so they switched channels to the cartoon network and waited for “Crusader Rabbit” to air. As if that was going to help, they were a simple people, they sang, they danced, they watched network television. What can be expected from a culture that listens to Barry Manilow?

Eventually the king and queen got used to her sitting in front of the tv, motionless and looking glazed. In essence a typical teenager.

That summer, at the local drive in hamburger stand, there was a “show and shine” where the local antique car enthusiasts would meet and nit pick each other’s work, with particular attention to the least important trivial details, like the lubricant used on ash trays, remember, these are antiques, at one time people smoked their cars. Some guy named Vlad the Crusader showed up, driving a passably restored 1956 Dodge Crusader four door hard top with six cylinder flat head engine. The king heard of this “Crusader” so he sent a couple of oafs that had nothing better to do to invite the guy to the castle and tell him about restoring crusaders. Vlad, having nothing better to do, followed the oafs to the castle and met the king, who was quite interested in the differential gear ratios and other stuff that is so boring as to make anyone in their right mind, puke, as a diversion from the excruciating comatose condition they would fall into if they had to listen to the conversation for one more minute. About the same time the discussion switched to crankcase venting, the entire court adjourned to the vomitorium, for obvious reasons.

The princess started to gasp, gag and retch, then made funny girl sounds like they make when they can no longer stand the inanity of guy talk. A word on dwell angle did it, the princess regained consciousness and as diplomatically as possible tried to change the subject. Vlad the crusader was taken aback, he did not know what to do in the presence of a girl, so a princess completely flabbergasted him. She stretched out her hand, Vlad, remembering some movie he once saw, where some guy kissed some girl’s hand, kissed the Princess right on the knuckles, when she applied them to his mouth in a reflex action over waking up with the urge to be ill. The king was quite appreciative of what Vald did, as he sort of wanted the remote and recliner back. As a reward, Vlad got to pick of the royal car pool, where he found a Hillman minx, previously owned by a nice lady from New Zealand who only drove it to Church and bookstores. The Princess decided to get a “Victorias” franchise, and live happily ever after, pursuing a mission of decent underwear for the nation’s girls, then mounting the throne after the King discovered monster truck rallies, and was never seen again.

This woman and so-called mother demands that Sleeping Beauty be banned. Moreover, this fairy tale has inappropriate sexual-behavior. Sigmund Freud would have had a blast dealing with this woman’s psychosis. Our so-called entertainment geniuses have continued to shove gay lovers or situations down the viewers throats. They, at the same time, will denigrate Christianity and Judaism while not daring to utter any criticism at the Cult which they revere, Islam.

Leftist nutters are ruling and ruining this, now, sad-sack planet by audaciously blaming anyone but themselves.

Feminists are just women socialists
– “The Patriarchy” = The Bourgeoisie
– female equality is an entirely different thing
– conservative roots
– linked to anti-slavery movement
– first US states for suffrage were Republican states
– pro-family
– anti-alcohol abuse
– pro-society

Please don’t do that. We listened to another women that BANNED prayers in school. She turned out be a lonely jerk that got shot years later or something. Some believe it was the turning point of our culture.

Now another woman wants this beautiful story done away with. At least they changed it into something pleasant. That should be cheered on, don’t ya think???

If we listen to any more women and Negroes about running this country we will certainly LOSE it, as Yahuah sends you women and children to lead you as a CURSE!!

Modern “feminism” is just another branch of Islam.

Kissing in fairytales are sexual assault, but sexual slavery in Islam is “their culture” and criticism of sexual slavery in Islam is sexist.
