In the Little Mermaid‚ it is a norm; “expectations by which a society guides the behavior of its members” (Macionis‚ pg. 68)‚ for mermaids and other sea creatures to look down on humans.

As I write this compare and contrast essay on the Little Red Riding Hood. I chose the two stories “Little Red Cap” by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm‚ and “Little Red Riding Hood” by Charles Perrault.

The Little Mermaid I’ve never realized that Disney’s The Little Mermaid was not an original Disney character/story‚ though this shouldn’t have been a surprise since Disney’s princesses all come from stories developed by people outside of Disney.
