Disney: Return Merida To Her Empowering Roots

Sign the petition

Merida, the heroine princess from "Brave", was beloved by people everywhere for her girlish charm and wild ways. Please stop sexualizing female characters and marketing the message that a girl's worth comes from her looks.

Why is this important?

In 2012 Disney Pixar released "Brave", giving fans and families a truly daring and adventurous heroine who was a welcome break from the long-standing Disney Princess brand. For a family like mine, concerned about gender stereotypes and sexualization in childhood, Merida was the princess we had been waiting for.
To our dismay, Disney has given Merida a very adult-looking makeover, along with the other princesses. By sexualizing Merida, Disney is sending the message to kids everywhere that being a princess isn't about being brave, it is about being pretty.

  • 精准医疗又叫个性化医疗，是指以个人基因组信息为基础，结合蛋白质组，代谢组等相关内环境信息，为病人量身设计出最佳治疗方案，以期达到治疗效果最大化和副作用最小化的一门定制医疗模式。因此相较传统医疗，精准医疗具有针对性、高效性及预防性等特征。 美国医学界在2011年首次提出了“精准医学”的概念，今年1月20日，奥巴马又在美国国情咨文中提出“精准医学...
