She was probably pretty disappointed, too. Ew!
Maybe it’s a similar situation like here (oglaf nsfw comic):
https://www.oglaf.com/herp/Yeah but he was rich
He was better as the beast.
TFW no filthy rich furry bf
??? Isn’t that the whole point of the story ? How is that a fun fact?
Hey, no one said it was anything more than romantic. You don’t have to fuck anything that moves.
That’s not a fun fact, that is the entier story…
And like a million Rule 34’s
I’m no Disney expert but Belle is the only worthy Princess of the bunch
She wanted to pursue knowledge, not a boy or just fun; she dropped everything to save her dad instead of causing his death or dethronement; she was fully aware how disgusting Gaston was regardless of appearance; she was seduced by books not riches; and yes, she was ready to ride the beast
And then she founded the company “Bad Dragon”
I guess it’s good that she took a Chance on him.
lol spot on
Naveen was more of a Princess than Tiana
To me I felt like Belle had Stockholm syndrome
Stockholm Syndrome isn’t an actual thing, fyi. It has never been recognized as a condition and never been diagnosed. The entire thing was an attempt to dismiss valid reactions to police incompetence.
Belle and the beast never really existed either so maybe she did have it!
Controversy and debate about whether the condition exists for literal hostages in a violent/deadly situation is a step removed from talking about whether people become irrationally attached to manipulative romantic/sexual partners, and stay despite all rationality pointing towards leaving.
I don’t know if Stockholm Syndrome exists for hostages held at gunpoint. But I do know that plenty of people have behaved irrationally about attachment to abusive people in their lives. And we don’t have to call that particular condition Stockholm Syndrome, but your argument doesn’t really disprove the topic of this discussion.

Stockholm syndrome doesn’t require being held at gun point.
The real issue is people behaving irrationally according to you. If you were in this situation, you would done the rational thing. Therefore, they must be irrational. They are, I’m part, to blame for their situation.
But this is all predicted on your value system and not theirs. Stockholm syndrome doesn’t take into account their story and what convinced them to behave the way they did. It a heavy hand that decontextualizes events and removes victims agency. Accounting for these may still reveal something worth addressing for a smaller subset of victims who are trauma bonded, but it should patiently and diligently center and empower the voices of victims and not dismiss them as irrational
Wow what a read! TIL. Thank you for this
If he’s verbally abusive, violent, and keeps you locked up as a prisoner, he isn’t necessarily evil.
You can change him! Just be patient, accept him, and love him!
I like the take in Phantom of the Opera better here. At first you expect it to be a beauty and the beast romantic story but Christine rejects the phantom not because of his appearance but because his soul is just as ugly as his exterior.
Don’t research the sequel.
Well it can’t have hurt that the beast owned a magical castle.
yes but she would have left given the chance after knowing about the magic castle
At first yes, but then it grew on her.
I wouldn’t blame Belle if she was disappointed and called it off.
Tales can be cruel:
And people underestimate big dommy furries:
This comic is neither left-right or right-left orientation and that should be punishable by death.
Idk man. When I read it it only makes sense left-right.
It’s meant to be read upper left, bottom left, upper right, bottom right. So I guess that is technically still read left-right.
I guess that seam in the middle means it’s originally two pages.
When I watch Mulan, I shut it off before the reveal and pretend that Mulan never gets outed. I am so thirsty for gay trans man romance :(
The reboot we deserve.
I wonder if it would be easy to do a cut of the movie so that’s what happens.
Just like how Shek didn’t know that Fiona would turn into a SBBW ogre. He was prepared to wear an angry skinny white girl like a condom
I didn’t need that mental image. But since you have installed it in my head, I am honor-bound to upvote.
sigh
Shrek 2 takes it further with Fiona actively choosing to let the magic wear off so her boy toy would turn back into an ogre rather than settle for a twunk rest of her life.
Cue the Hulk/Black Widow GIF
I’m delighted to report that I have no idea what gif you’re referring to, and I am happy to keep it that way
Since you asked
Tap for reddit link

If you use a US VPN the “I’m not over 18” button turns to “Yes, I’m over 18”
Ha! That link is staying blu— dammit
Is there a link directly to the gif? for those if us who don’t have reddit logins?
And turn off your speaker sound! You can thank me later!
Came back to say, “thank you.”
That still asked me to login even in desktop mode
Strange. Have you typed in the URL exactly as above? It’s important that there’s no “www” in that url.Other than that, I can’t really help you. :/
You shouldn’t need a login, if on mobile set your browser to desktop mode to bypass the age thing
I tried to get it, but the copied link is about:blank. Try using an instance of Redlib to see it.

I can’t be the only one who was disappointed when the beast turned into generic inbred royal twink?
Not a real man like Gaston
Gaston had years of practice sucking down liquid protein too
Noooo oooooone sucks like Gaston, no one fucks like Gaston, no one’s dick’s as incredibly thick as Gaston
For there’s no man in town half as manly,
Perfect, a bear so-far-gone,
You can ask each of Tom, Dick and Stanley,
And they’ll tell you whose top they pre-fer to be on
Gaston has topped every willing villager behind the local tavern but i have zero problem believing he still intends to marry Belle and have 12 kids. He’s a hunting lodge bear but his sequel orientation is dominant. Doesn’t matter who.
Can’t find another source for this tweet from either Twitter or Reddit, but here’s a screenshot of this tweet by Twitter user
@hiimbobbi:Personally, Belle was not fooling me or anyone. When the Beast changed into a human, I saw that look on her face. That was DISAPPOINTMENT.
That’s literally the universal, “Oh my God, I’m going to vomit” face.
That’s like, the moral of the whole movie is that she didn’t judge him for his appearance and wasn’t expecting a prince. I figured this was well known.
That’s the interpretation from the modern perspective on relationships. The tale is from a time where women (well, more like girls to be exact) were married off without any say of their own, and the tale was supposed to tell them “hey, we know the guy we’re forcing you to marry seems like a hairy monster, buuuuut if you can look past that he might be nice actually!”
But in the Disney movie which the picture is referencing, it’s not a forced marriage, which is the version I think most people think of.
To me, the original tales all felt like the Murphy’s Law of storytelling. While they are the originals and are much more mature material, I honestly feel the vast majority of Disney adaptations (I’m talking classic 2d series run) are better at teaching the lessons to a modern audience than the original stories. Times change and art often reflects this.
Sadly, the pendulum has swung too far the other way and we’re remaking material in a span of time that the lessons haven’t changed all that much. That’s why you can go back to pretty much all eras of film and get valuable lessons from it because the lessons all still apply. It’s just that much of a new medium.
Being hairy monster makes you not-nice automatically?
Um, yea.
sad
There’s a difference between being hairy and being a hairy monster.
Generally it’s the fangs and claws.
Right, Beauty, and the author’s thinly veiled fetish.
I know you’re kind of joking, but the story was written during a time where girls would often be married off to older men they didn’t know and the story was meant as a comfort/encouragement to these young girls that he may be ugly and old and not really what you dreamed of, but maybe he turns out to be an actually kind person who can give you a good life and you can learn to love him despite his looks.
or she was into furries
I have to imagine there’s a meme or comic of Bella being all super excited ready to bang becoming disappointed once he transforms back into a human, but I wouldn’t know how to search for it without having to sift through piles of rule 34 to find one. I’m not brave enough.
Now that I think about it, I certainly was disappointed. He was a hot muscular beast until he turned into a cookie cutter long haired twink. Should have been a clue.
Watch the scene again. She was disappointed at least for a moment.
Now that you mention it, I wonder what that says about the shift of sexual morals. The original French tale was written in 1740.
Time’s only been around since 1740?
I mean, it’s a tale as old as time, so I guess that tracks
Presumably she wasn’t just prepared to ride the beast, she actively wanted to be ruined by it.
She was probably disappointed when the transition happened. She thought she was going to be raw-dogged by the monster.
Jerk off before you write your comment next time.
Look, some of us are monster fuckers and you’ll have to deal with it.
You can’t tell me what to do. You’re not my mom.
So you’re saying you have a sub fetish where your mom is the Dom? Or is that mommy complex?
“I just wish he kept his knotted beast dick…”
