So you think fairy tales are just for girls?
"You think fairy tales are only for girls? Here’s a hint - ask yourself who wrote them. I assure you, it wasn’t just the women. It’s the great male fantasy - all it takes is one dance to know that she’s the one. All it takes is the sound of her song from the tower, or a look at her sleeping face. And right away you know - this is the girl in your head, sleeping or dancing or singing in front of you. Yes, girls want their princes, but boys want their princesses just as much. And they don’t want a very long courtship. They want to know immediately."
― David Levithan & Rachel Cohn, Dash & Lily's Book of Dares
I've read the book just last night and thought about this quote. So I decided to share this on my profile.
So what do you think? Have you read any book from Levithan? or from Cohn? I would really love to know if you've read any of their works.
