You totally left out Vikings.
They’re both badass White Knights, AND Superheros.
Combo~

Boobs.[/quote]
yep, anything more than that is reading too much into it.
I’d rather hang with the court jesters and tavern wenches.

I thought a princess was a woman who gets chased by the paparazzi and then dies in a fiery car crash?

Fuck you!
I’ve had a constant fantasy of being the queen in charge of caring for a whole nation since doing a report on Queen Elizabeth in third grade. That woman was awesome. If I was 1/10th as cool as her the world would be a better place.
I think girls nowdays associate the princess as a character who exerts control over men. So, if you enjoy knowing you have men bowing at your feet and obtaining power that way, you’ll invest in that fantasy. If you feel sympathy towards the men, and think “that’s not fair” when imagining using a guy, you’ll probably turn out more like Wonder Woman.

Interesting. Where does the power (over men) come from? Are men now a lower status?

I don’t agree. I think that’s a delusion. Sexual ‘power’ is not real power. Otherwise prostitutes would rule the world.

Helen of Troy? Anne Boleyn?
If sex wasn’t a “power”, then would these events have taken place?
I believe sex is more used as a tool or weapon, as opposed to a genuine “power”, but I think it’s still a power, nonetheless.

You probably should read the Book of Ester. Summary: hot chick is so hot she can bend the most powerful king in the world to her will, saves her people, kill the bad guys, and get the guy. Has the advantage of being true.
Sexual power is real power. More subtle than a machine gun, but a real power.
Now, can it exist in a vaccum? No. But neither can any other kind of power.
Intelligence is useless without ability to impliment, for example.
Might is useless if not directly with intelligence.

The power women have over men has brought down not only men, but empires, careers, and countries.
