Throughout history, women have been portrayed as the weaker sex. Truthfully, many women are just as physically and emotionally strong as men. The infamous Cinderella’s strengths have been shown in various ways and aspects in the movies such as Ever After and, of course, the Disney classic, Cinderella.
