      An inverted version occurs in the Bible: when King Xerxes asks Haman how to honor a man, and Haman thinks it's him, but it was actually Mordecai the king wished to honor. Haman died impaled on a spike he had originally prepared for Mordecai.
      Even earlier versions can probably be found in the Mesopotamian writings

      Zorander, I believe it’s because humans become physically mature before they are mentally and emotionally mature. It might be possible to be pregnant as a preteen, but being a parent takes a great deal of emotional strength that most children couldn’t manage. (Not to mention all the moral implications.)

    • @Zorander.
      @Zorander. 6 років тому +3

      @ @@jessicagalvin4598 I think 70% of adult 20+ and 30+ parents are not able to take care their kids the proper way and teach them and prepare them for life. Yet society lets them have children!
      Also I never said preteen, I said 12-16yo, that is not preteen, preteens are under 10yo, a 10+ is a teenager or teen for short.
      Edit:
      Also since most teenagers (12-16) are sex crazed (probably you were too, I remember I was, most teenagers are) they should have proper access to anti-pregrancy pills and etc, without haveing to deal with moral judgement from parents, teachers, society, etc.
      Most teens get knocked up not because they are dumb, but because lots of countrys do not support teen sex (12-16) therefore they don't really have a choice since they are young and in heat.

      Every time she came in the night to nurse her baby, she said, "Where is my child? Where is my roe? Once/twice/thrice more I'll come, and then I'll go."

      There actually is an Italian version of this tale--more along the lines of the seven swans and the twelve brothers though where a witch (the same one who enchanted her brothers) pushes the girl into the water and tries to get the king to slay her youngest brother who was turned into a lamb--the other brothers are oxen. However, the king actually calls her out on this and he finds his true wife in the water.

      It kinda teaches that you become/are beautiful for/because of being a good person, but it does get negated when they say ‘this other girl is ugly, now she is a villain, and yeah she’s mean too” like....almost encouraged a good, but mainly reinforces a bad

    • @ninedragons6400
      @ninedragons6400 6 років тому +16

      It's not that ugly equates evil. It's that just that these ugly people behave badly in stead of accepting themselves. It all comes down to jealousy of the beautiful. I see it happen in real life all the time.

    • @piriyaj1347
      @piriyaj1347 5 років тому +10

      Reminds me of the Ancient Greek belief that beauty and virtue are the same thing. Ugliness (things that don’t look ideal) cannot be a representation of goodness for them. These stories are just some kind of literary representation after all.

    • @niesson9456
      @niesson9456 5 років тому +3

      ​@@ninedragons6400 Absolutely well-said!! It's that they are caught up in their own insecurities, greed, envy and so much shit, it's the ugliness inside of them represented on the outside.
      A person who may not look ugly, as beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, may honestly just repel any good to themselves for doing wrong and ugly deeds -empathy here, i don't mean to judge...
      It's also likely the psychology from evolution... IF AT ALL, that is the case: disgust in both physical and their spiritual or mental forms, is an emotion that has kept us humans alive for this long.
      Think trypophobia. Except in this case, likely more how awful they are on the inside.
      Besides... not to say that people do not deserve good things, or love and happiness, but.... sometimes if people don't help themselves... say, you feel overweight, but refuse to workout, you feel you have awful skin, but do nothing to care for it, or who's to say that people like from Peter and Paul one didn't just inherit wealth, and have never known hard work? "And he did not know of all that he had" was the line. And all he could feel was greed. Possibly self-entitled pricks.
      Again, not to say that is always the case. Just speculation, and a more progressive way of looking at things.

    i watched another version where everything was pretty much the same, but the youngest sibling was a boy and the prince found the oldest by going on a hunt for the boy-now-buck, they did marry and had a child, but in this other version the wicth found out about the siblings and went to try and get them killed.
    what the prince found was the ghost of the girl(or at least near-death spirit i think) and at the end of it all with the death of the witch, the boy's curse was broken and he went back to being a normal human.

    Wait a freaking minute! The king didn’t notice the overall physical differences between the women? Shape of the face, voice, arms, hands, legs, hips etc?!! Then he okays the murder of her “deer sister”? And why does the cook suddenly have such a strong influence in what happens within the castle? She presents the baby to the king to give an example. Not trying to knock the stories, as I quite enjoy them (the narrative and art as well), but inconsistency seems to be a running theme in several stories.
