Disney princesses are pretty much divided in two types: the damsel in distress in need of saving (Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, Jasmine) and the strong and independent female who can save herself (Belle, Mulan, Tiana, Megara, Merida, Elsa). Out of the damsels in distress, the only one that I like is Aurora, and only because she had an impact on my childhood (I really loved Sleeping Beauty as a kid xD). Out of the strong and independent females, I really like all of them. I'm not sure where Anna, Rapunzel and Pocahontas would fall into that spectrum, though. I'm pretty sure Pocahontas would be strong and independent but I haven't watched her movie in years so I can't tell for sure. I always say Jasmine as an independent woman in a way, or at leas rebellious
