Stereotypes Of Mulan

Women are heavily stereotyped in society and are expected to fit into society's roles to be treated fairly. Although, stereotypes should not define who a person is. The character who strongly proves this is Mulan. Mulan demonstrates that a person shouldn’t be judged by their gender or stereotype, as she was able to become a strong and brave warrior through her disguise as a male soldier, which is deemed unfit for her gender. In the beginning of the movie, Mulan’s mum and grandmother try to teach Mulan the appropriate ways of behaving like a lady in order to honour her family, in the song “Honour to us all”. Women were always expected to act refined, polite and graceful. Although, women who do not fit into these stereotypes will be dishonoured
