Nothing Like a Princess

  What exactly is a princess and what does she represent?  And why do the poor guys get left playing second fiddle, if they're lucky.  After our family's time at Disney World and encounters with many princesses I think I now get it. 
The guy is just window dressing for the princess, which I guess mirror`s real life.  After all, any time a woman has introduced the guy they are with it is usually, "this is my husband/boyfriend", with no name mentioned.  Okay so it doesn't happen all the time, but that would ruin my point, so get over it ladies.
  My wife and daughter made it their mission to have my daughter photographed with all of the princesses at Disney, so I got to meet them as well.  And yes, I was all for it for the simple reason that my daughter had a look of joy on her face when standing with any princess.  Even the boys enjoyed it, although they wouldn't admit it.  For me it was meeting Belle, (who by the way was very attractive and my standards are high, right dear), I was sold on the princess being the focal point.  They don't hug like Pooh Bear or Mickey, but they have a whiter smile and bigger (I know what your thinking, but that would be wrong and besides kids may be reading this) gowns to wear.
  They are perfection in every way, even the way they speak.  Now, don't get me wrong none have had to go through child birth, raising kids, being puked on, yelled at, attended a PTA meeting where everyone bitches about something, and finally, they all have a prince for a boyfriend, not a prick for a husband.  Let's see them after all this happens. 
  In the meantime I am okay with my daughter and sons having a Princess as their role model and only hope they never discover the truth.  I hope my daughter meets someone that treats her like the princess she is and that the boys find a princess to spend their eternity with.  No different then my marriage to my wife.  Let's see if that gets my name in the credits.  If not I am going back to Belle.  
  And by the way, I will try not to include anymore Disney in my future blogs, I don't want to spoil any surprises for anyone, 
being that "It's a Small World After All".  Sorry couldn't resist.
