\u00a0Frollo and Quasimodo<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mother Gothel and Rapunzel<\/p>\n

Frollo and Mother Gothel convince Quasimodo and Rapunzel that their lives are dependent on them. The two villains claim the outside world is a terrible place<\/a> even though they know this is not true. They also constantly emotionally abuse their victims by implying their worthlessness and destroying their self-esteems<\/a>. Quasimodo and Rapunzel sympathize with their captors and even believe their captors are protecting them and treating them with kindness. However, both captors are merely using and manipulating their victims for their own selfish purposes.<\/p>\n

NOT:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Beast and Belle<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Belle does not sympathize with the Beast when she is treated poorly. She becomes angry and leaves the castle, only returning by her own wish so that the Beast (who saves her) does not freeze to death. She does not respond nicely towards the Beast until he treats her with respect. In this situation, Belle has control and is not manipulated into feeling for the Beast, nor does the Beast treat her disrespectfully after the first night. While the Beast does have an underlying motive as to keeping Belle in his castle, he abandons this idea and sets her free to make her happy. If anything, this story is a case of Lima Syndrome where the captor starts to sympathize with the victim.<\/p>\n

Check out this post<\/a> which refocuses the purpose of Beauty and the Beast from merely (and wrongly) being about Stockholm Syndrome to it\u2019s original purpose.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

FUCKING FINALLY<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I don\u2019t usually reblog stuff like this, but Beauty and the Beast is my favorite movie and I\u2019d like to have this on my page!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

this is actually a very good analysis. I take back all the times I\u2019ve called Beauty and the Beast a\u00a0\u2018stockholm syndrome\u2019 romance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

FINALLY. GOD. FINALLY.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
