What if Disney Princesses Were Amy Schumer?
Q: What would a joke skewering Disney Princesses look like if it were actually funny? A: [This Amy Schumer sketch.]
Schumer has spent her very strong third season mocking the impossible, twisted goals society asks women to aspire to—Always be the “cool girl.” Be fuckable forever. Look great, but do it without makeup—and it’s hard to get more impossible and twisted than the Disney Princess fantasy.
Kind of fucked up how one of the most popular dream jobs for little girls involves pumping out inbred male heirs, oppressing peasants, and doing whatever Tim Gunn tells you to. (On the other hand, at least it’s better than stripping at a bachelor party for dogs.)
