Like, Moana just did so well from a feminist perspective. Passes the Bechdel test. Literally doesn’t even mention the fact that they don’t have a romantic interest. No one questions the legitimacy of a girl training to become the next chief. All the women in her life empower her to follow her destiny. She has a more realistic physical figure. She literally battles a demon and learns advanced navigational skills which she then teaches to her entire tribe. She grabs a demi-god by the ear and tells him to fix his shit. Like, dayum. Well done Disney.
the thing about Moana is that even tho it does all of this perfectly, it still doesn’t even mention the fact that She’s Just A Girl because she’s a warrior and a hero and it’s not “she did all this even though she’s a girl” it’s just, look at how awesome she is.
