Over more than 80 years

from the First Wave of women to post-feminism

from following male-dominated social rules to downplaying gender bias to create independent and powerful women

Disney princess films have adapted to the evolution of gender rights in society and created a series of memorable princess images. With the gradual awakening of feminist consciousness and the rise of women's voice

Under the influence of three waves of feminism and the complex and ever-changing background of The Times

the princess images in the Disney Princess series of animated films have undergone three huge transformations

the image of princesses has become increasingly independent and powerful

while the male "savior" identity has been gradually challenged. Therefore

against the backdrop of social gender rights movements such as the feminist movement and the male conservative movement

this paper studies the changes in the male and female images in Disney princess movies in three stages

and explores the process by which princesses break through the male-centered social concept to achieve their own independence and strength.
