TL;DR - Daisy Duck is an excellent pop culture example of what-not-to-do.

With a toddler at home, I have recently been reacquainted with many beloved cartoon characters from my childhood, but there are one or two that I remember somewhat differently.

At a certain age I grew bored with the wholesome and unfailingly sweet Minnie Mouse and came to admire the feisty, sassy Daisy Duck. Now, as an adult and a red pill woman, I see Daisy very differently; as an emasculating, argumentative, controlling, and manipulative shrew. In fact, she is a nearly perfect example of how not to act. Now, I'm sure we can all agree that Donald Duck isn't what we'd typically consider Captain material, but I can't help but feel that our favorite foul would have less to be angry about if he had a partner who was gentle and compassionate instead of castigating and derisive.

It makes me wonder how many other reverse role models can be found in children's entertainment. After all, the blue pill indoctrination starts early.
