Why hasn't Disney made an Oriental princess?

Mulan doesn't count, she was neither royalty nor did she marry into it.

Get your racist fucking ass right out of here

"Princess" refers to their branding, not whether or not they're actual royalty within their own story.

To be a Disney Princess is to be part of a merchandise line, nothing more, nothing less.

Oriental isn't a race

Disney said Mulan counts so they don't give a fuck anymore about Asia.

Orientals get offended that you think oriental is a bad word.

I think he's a burger. For some reason in yankland calling someone from The Orient an Oriental is somehow raysisum.

It's really stupid and lacks any form of logic, but that is the land where "coloured people" is racist and "people of colour" isn't.


Basically, just ignore them.

>>70208410
Yet they still make more movies for WHITE CIS WOMEN like Frozen when there's only one for African Americans.

Absolutely problematic.

Orient is almost exclusively east asia.

>>70208271
If by Oriental you mean Asian....

Jasmine is technically one.

Mulan wasnt a real princess but she counts

The reason is Asian people see how much attention black people get when they cry racism, and they want attention too. So they pretend to be offended by just about everything.

>>70208519
I don't know why, it's not considered a slur but something outdated. I think kids think because no one uses it anymore it must be very offensive like calling someone a chink.

Shut up losers

>Distinct within U.S.A. culture, some American English speakers consider the term "Oriental" to be an antiquated, pejorative, and disparaging term. John Kuo Wei Tchen, director of the Asian/Pacific/American Studies Program and Institute at New York University, said the basic critique of the term developed in U.S.A. in the 1970s. Tchen has said: "With the U.S.A. anti-war movement in the '60s and early '70s, many Asian Americans identified the term 'Oriental' with a Western process of racializing Asians as forever opposite 'others'."[7] In a 2009 American press release related to legislation aimed at removing the term "oriental" from official documents of the State of New York, Governor David Paterson said: "The word 'oriental' does not describe ethnic origin, background or even race; in fact, it has deep and demeaning historical roots".[8]

>In 2016, President Barack Obama signed legislation striking the word from federal law.[9]
