What’s wrong with Disney?

Posted on by ordinaryfabgirl

Hi,

Ordinary Fab Girl here. So in my R.S lesson yesterday we were talking about what’s wrong with Disney. So I thought I would actually blog about it! (Thanks Miss, for giving me the idea!)

By the way, I am currently listening to the prom soundtrack by Netflix. Does anyone else LOVE the prom soundtrack?!

Firstly lets talk about Snow White. In Snow White, Snow White’s job is to do all the housework and cook and clean for the dwarfs. The dwarfs don’t want her for her brain. They want her to look after them. That projects to young girls that there only job in life is to be a housewife.

In the Disney Film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the prince kisses an unconscious girl. That projects the image that its ok for a random stranger to kiss an unconscious woman without her consent. That means young girls will grow up thinking thats ok.

Lets talk about the Prince. In the Disney Movies all the princes are white, rich and famous. That projects to young boys that you can only marry a pretty girl if you are white, rich and famous.

Also there is no LGBTQ+ princesses ( well people have theories buuuuuuuuuut none of them are confirmed). So what message is that sending to young girls? You can’t be a princess and be LGBTQ+. Are they trying to project Homophobia?

Lets talk about the six original princesses.

Aurora, Ariel, Snow White, Jasmine, Cinderella and Belle.

So only one of them is dark skinned and even that is seen as the quirky one. What does that project to young dark-skinned girls? You can’t be a princess because you are dark-skinned.

Now there are lots of other examples of racism and mocking peoples culture but if I listed all of them, this post would be a mile long. I suggest though that you do some of your own research because I think you will be shocked.

Also last thing but none of the princesses wear glasses. That’s telling young girls that you can’t be a princess because you wear glasses.

So that’s it for this post! Let me know what you think of Disney in the comments below!

How to make new friends!

Posted on by ordinaryfabgirl


Hi,

So there are many times in your life when you will be in a situation were you want to make new friends. I’m here to give you some real life tips on how to make new friends!

1.Smile

I know this is a classic tip but its true. Try and smile at people. It will make you look friendly and approachable. You don’t want to look moody!

2.Don’t try to hard.

No, I am not saying don’t make an effort. I am saying don’t within a day of meeting them act like you have known them forever. It will make you look weird. Friendships take time. You can’t force them.

3. Find common interests!

Lets prove my point. Ok, you love creative writing and theatre. Who are you more likely to be friends with someone who loves creative writing or someone who loves chemistry?

4.Create inside jokes.

So I personally think it really helps friendships to have inside jokes. For example with one of my good friends, we will call her Zebra 🦓 for privacy reasons. One of us just has to saying sharpening pencils to each other and we will both start laughing. Its also great for sending your first text to them. Nothing is more awkward than sending them hi, and then they reply hi and you have got no idea what to say next.

So thats all the tips I have today! Let me know your tips in the comments down below!

Have a great day and Happy Christmas!

Cutting down your meat intake!

Posted on by ordinaryfabgirl


Hi, people of planet internet,

Today I’m back

With a bit more of a serious post. I was inspired to do this post after a geography class, where we watched a video called the hidden cost of hamburgers. It was really informative. Click here to watch.

Earlier this year I really started to cut down my meat intake. If you read my what I eat in a day, you would have seen that I was basically eating a vegan diet. However, I am not vegan, as that would be basically impossible at the school I go to. I do try and avoid meat so I eat A LOT of cheese sandwiches!!! I also drink Soya milk instead of cows milk, plant butter instead of butter etc….

What I’m trying to say is to make an impact you don’t have to go fully vegan. You don’t have to go fully vegetarian. We all just have to put in the effort to do better. That is what counts.

Having a meat-free day once a week would make an impact. If everyone had a meat-free day once a week, imagine how big an impact that would make.

See you next time!

Hola, mis amigos!

Today I’m here to let you into a very IMPORTANT secret. The best Starbucks drink!

DISCLAIMER: I don’t know if they do it in your local Starbucks as I am not sure if they have some differences in the menu depending on what country you live in. I live in England , so I don’t know if they have it in the U.S for example.

Are you ready to hear it?

I obviously have it with soya milk and vegan whipped cream but I am sure it tastes just as delicious with cows milk.
