Alpha Women, Beta Men I have chosen to analyze and interpret the article Alpha Women, Beta Men, which we read in connection with our “Modern Love” -theme The text is a feature article written by columnist, Ralph Gardner Jr. It was printed in New York Magazine on the 17th of November 2003.

The 60s and 70s encapsulate the removal of conservative views and the emergence into a new age where women governed their own lives and experienced a sense of autarchy never seen previously.

is barely present. In Tangled, however, there is a focus on men who are much more developed then the typical Prince Charming character. While the roles of women have significantly changed in fairy tales since becoming popular, the roles of men have stayed the same.

The fairy tale that I read and watched was Little Brier-Rose (Maleficent). The written version of Maleficent (Little Brier-Rose), by the Grimm Brothers, greatly differs from the 2014 Disney movie version.

This includes the way that Aurora has the curse placed on her, the obstacles and new characters that are met on the way to the rescue of Aurora. In Little Brier-Rose
