    Wait what if a woman is put on trial? Does she get young man? Also my theory is that she chose the door with the woman then framed the woman for a crime so that she can rig her trial and let her die at the claws of the tiger.

    Isn't there a version of this where the Lady and the Tiger are behind both doors? as in instead of two rooms it was all just one room

    The tiger because it said she had a semi barbaric heart. The tiger also came out because she wouldn’t be able to stand seeing him with the lady since she hated her and him dying was better than her seeing him with his new wife.

    Maybe she led him to the door with the tiger, and shortly thereafter committed suicide so she could be with him (her lover) in the afterlife.

    she let the tiger have him. do to her nature;. she would much rather suffer the sorrow of seeing her lover die opposed to the possibility of him becoming more superior with another woman. it becomes less of a weight of heart and more of a burden of superiority. regardless she loses him. her rebellious/ revengeful nature as well as her position as royalty are all contributing factors. her character seems to personify the oxymoron of the phrase "its better to have loved, than to have never loved at all" ; for she in my opinion would rather be satisfactory with his fall, than inferior to his potential.

    Reason to choose the tiger?

    • @upsidedowndreamer8724
      @upsidedowndreamer8724  3 роки тому +4

      Well it’s explained in the story, with more emphasis on the princess choosing the tiger than the lady. She was jealous of that lady and felt hatred towards her, and might’ve preferred to see the man she loved get devoured by tiger than get married to another woman.

    • @juhblaze
      @juhblaze 2 роки тому +4

      The point is that its a no win. She will lose the man she loves either way. And if he really loved the princess, then he will feel the same. Truly a lose/lose situation.
