Everyday pop culture- Glitter, Smarts and Zombie Hunting Princesses


   As I went Christmas shopping one day, I decided to treat myself to a yogurt.  As I snacked and mused on my journal, a mom and her four year old girl sat down next to me. I smiled at the girl and she struck up a conversation with me. Complimenting my Batman T-shirt and noticing a Disney store bag, she asked what I bought. I answered that I purchased a Queen Elsa doll for my niece but I hadn't seen the movie at the time, so I wasn't sure if she might like it. The girl delightfully assured me that my niece would love it because all girls wants to be princesses and wear glitter.

   Princesses and glitter? Is that what all girls want to be now? Did I miss that memo?
