  #6.Cinderella: Sort of Like "The Secret"

  Cinderella is forced by her bitchy stepmother to clean the house from stem to stern every day. The only thing that prevents her from swallowing a bottle of pain killers is her belief that someday her dreams will come true.

  One day Cinderella plans to attend a ball thrown by the prince, but the fact that she has a cutthroat bitch for a stepmother completely slipped her mind. She is forbidden from going.

  Luckily, it turns out Cinderella has a fairy godmother, who uses her magic to hook Cinderella up with a ride, a beautiful outfit and a pair of what would seem like grossly impractical glass heels. At the ball Cinderella uses her innate flirting skills and rocks the prince's world, to the point that the next day the prince whisks her away to be his princess.

  The Supposed Message:

  Dreams do come true!

  The Actual Message:

  If you wait around long enough, the universe will practically hand stuff to you.

  No one is denying the fact that Cinderella's life was one big shit stain. But in her state of mind, she actually thought that her dreams would just sort of happen if she sat around being miserable long enough. It never occurred to her that she had the ability to just tell her stepmother to go fuck herself.

  Instead she kept scrubbing floors and believing that, if she continued to wish very hard and take absolutely no action, everything would fall into place. And what do you know, the bitch gets a fucking kingdom out of it.

  So don't worry, girls. Some kind of "Fairy Godmother" will sweep into your life at any moment, and find you a man to take care of everything. Just keep wishing!

  #6灰姑娘:不能说的秘密

  灰姑娘被邪恶的继母强迫每天从早到晚打扫屋子,惟一一件不让她吞下整瓶止疼药自杀的原因就是她相信有一天梦想会变成现实。

  一天,灰姑娘确定去参加王子举办的误会,不过现实是,该死的继母完全粉碎了她的计划。她出不去了。

  幸运的是,灰姑娘有个仙女教母。她用魔法给灰姑娘变出一辆马车、一身美丽的衣服,还有一双水晶鞋。在舞会上,灰姑娘大出风头,成功地闯进了王子的世界,以至于第二天王子就请求她成为王妃。

  本想传达的信息:

  美梦一定能成真!

  实际传达的信息:

  只要你等得够久,总会有人给你帮助。

  没有人否认灰姑娘命运坎坷。不过在她的脑袋里,她实际认为只要自己忍辱负重,总有一天她的梦想会变成现实。她从来没想过自己有能力直接告诉继母滚远点。

  她不停地擦着地板,并坚信:只要她继续努力祈祷、什么也不做,所有事情都会好起来。看看后来怎样了,巫婆居然给她弄来了个王国!

  所以,姑娘们,别担心。总一天,会有一位仙女教母进入你的世界,给找个能照料一切的好男人。继续祈祷吧!
