Frozen: In Sociological View and about the Women’s Power


Frozen: In Sociological View and about the Women’s Power

These are main story that we were discussing about:

Elsa, princess of Arendelle, possesses unique powers, with which she is able to produce ice, frost, and snow at will. One night while playing, she accidentally injures her younger sister, Anna. The king and queen seek help from the troll king, who heals Anna and removes her memories of Elsa's magic. The royal couple isolates the children in their castle until Elsa learns to control her powers. Afraid of hurting Anna again, Elsa spends most of her time alone in her room, causing a rift between the girls as they grow up. When the girls are teenagers, their parents die at sea during a storm. When Elsa comes of age, the kingdom prepares for her coronation. Despite Elsa's fear, her coronation goes off without incident. During the reception, Hans proposes and Anna hastily accepts. However, Elsa refuses to grant her blessing and forbids their sudden marriage. The sisters argue, culminating in the exposure of Elsa's abilities during an emotional outburst.
 

 We had a little bit of debate about Elsa and Anna’s situations. A boy(let’s call him “J”) thought that women got more power than past. Therefore, Disney made Elsa being a queen in Arendelle. Also, we knew that Elsa is very independent person that when Anna came to her and let her to make permission about the sudden marriage, she refused firmly and said, “You can’t marry a man you just met.” However, a girl (let’s call her “U”) thinks that it’s not because of the women’s power increased. She said that situation made Elsa being a queen because her parents died and there was no man to inherit the crown. Also, Hans who wanted to marry with Anna was not because of the love. He just wanted to be a king by using Anna.

 I think women’s power is increasing nowadays. There are some reasons for that. First of all, women’s discrimination got disappeared. For example, women couldn’t vote in America but nowadays, there are no laws like that. Therefore, Secondly, women could make their voice and do what they want to do. For example, they studied hard and nowadays, there are more woman who graduate the law school than men.
