I choose to revise the Grimm brothers’ Cinderella because I felt the tale left the most negative impact on young girls.

She wore a cutup, dirty white night gown that stopped at her mid-knee, the gown didn't cover the blood and scrapes all over her knees. Her black hair stopped at her waist, but a few giant bald spots laid on her head in variety of places . She looked so young and damaged

slow, sensual strokes. In the background, the sound of Holland’s voice, teasing, coaxing, encouraging the young Latino with softly spoken commands. “That’s it,” the mogul directed from behind the camera, his voice dripping with arousal, “make the dirty whore nice and clean.” Unable to look away, Tom watched on, his muscles tense, his mouth pulled into a silent scream.
