You're supposed to be handsome, charming, slay dragons, rescue the girl & live happily-ever-after - Prince Charming is an impossible myth to live up to, it traps men just as much as women. For women it teaches us passivity & waiting to be saved, & that beautiful is our most important asset, which cripples us, but think of the pressure men have to live up to on the other side of the story. This myth cripples us all, time to put it to bed & find other myths to help both sides of this impossibility.
