In the Dowling's movie version, "Ever After" she presents the Cinderella story in the same manner however there are a few changes. For example, there is one nice stepsister that relates to D

In my own experience I found that most teenagers in my senior year were continuing some kind of higher education after graduation. Instead of in the 1980's when most women stayed home and let the guys do the work. I think that time has just changed and that everyone is realizing that they need to support themselves and not rely on a man or woman to take care of the financial status in the household. Change has overcome the statement "The Cinderella Complex". Even in today's society it is very important to support your self in case of a crisis that could occur such as a death, a lay off, or a divorce with the person making the living. Therefore, if this does happen then the person that isn't working could get a job whereas if they didn't go to school then they would have serious problems with this situation. I know that beauty is something everyone wants but I don't believe that many people rely on their beauty to get them through the tough times in life or if they do they will find out quick that it won't. That is why I do not feel that the "Cinderella Complex" still exists.

Throughout all Cinderella versions no matter how it is changed in small details the story still sticks to the same plot and meaning. There is an evil stepmother and stepsisters that are envy and jealous of the beautiful girl in rags and a magic whether it be the animal helpers or a spirit that give aid to her to make her wish come true of attending the ball. No matter which version you are reading most people will go into their own fantasy and dream along which caused the "Cinderella Complex" to become real. But today with reality we don't centralize over this tale thinking it really can happen. Although many people are in confusion thinking that their outer beauty will get them a solution to reality even in today's time when fairytales are only make believe.

In the Perrault's version of Cinderella, she is a beautiful, kind, passive, humble girl that takes all the hardship that the stepmother and stepdaughters with a pleasant attitude for example, "Anyone else would have done their hair in knots for them, but she had a sweet nature, and she finished it perfectly." This version had the power of the fairy god mother that gave Cinderella a pumpkin for the carriage, turned the mice into horses, the lizards into footmen, rats into coachmen, and touched Cinderella with her wand to turn her dress into god and silver cloth. The fairy godmother did this because Cinderella was a good girl. Like most versions she goes to the ball, dances with the prince and when the clock strikes 12:00 she loses her shoe and the prince has every girl in the kingdom try it on
