Identify and explain 3 gender role expectations and relationships that traditional fairy tales express and which this PC version exaggerates in order to draw our attention to it.

. Read the original Brothers Grimm version (Links to an external site.) of Cinderella and then read the “politically correct” version of Cinderella (see attachment below). It is essentially a satirical view of the traditional Cinderella story and therefore is not intended to be read to children. In satirizing the story of Cinderella, it draws our attention to things that perhaps we should consider/question when we think about fairy tales.

2. Write an Introduction connecting fairy tales and gender roles.

3. In 3 different paragraphs, identify and explain 3 gender role expectations and relationships that traditional fairy tales express and which this PC version exaggerates in order to draw our attention to it. In other words, using exaggerations and politically correct humor, how does this story highlight the roles women and men play in traditional fairy tales? Use specific examples from the politically correct version and how that differs from the traditional story to demonstrate and support your points.

4. Write a Conclusion

Even though this is an informal essay, it still requires good organization and academic writing. Remember that in a Gordon Rule class one of the objectives is to communicate effectively.
