    The Wizard of Oz is a movie beloved by many. It was a major part of many people's childhood, with lovable but very one dimensional protagonists, and a villain who is evil just for the sake of being evil. Even with this in mind it has still stood the test of time, still being revered as a classic that defined a generation and even created an archetype in itself. But mainly because of the time it was created in it has many sexist undertones. This has attracted many feminist criticisms. One of the
