Being born
with male genitalia it was often socially frowned upon when I was a growing up
to watch, let alone like any, of the Disney princess films. Now with that being
said I didn’t happen to watch a whole bunch of these classic cartoon features
during my younger years. My mother however will tell you otherwise and say that
as a toddler Cinderella was my favorite film, and like most children was the
one that I would watch over and over, I however don’t remember this.
This massive
gender separation on this topic does not stop me, now that I am older, to enjoy
all of these widely popular films. Actually I have come to believe that my
Wifey enjoys the fact that she can educate me on this missing part of my
childhood film repertoire. With Wifey in my life that means that just as there
is all sorts of Star Wars merchandise around our shared abode there are pieces
of princess paraphernalia lining the shelves.
As with a
great many things the obsession of these iconic cartoons has evolved into a
very publicly widespread geekdom. With every type of geekdom things will eventually
evolve into something bigger, humor is born and numerous inside jokes begin to
form. This has even happened to these fictional characters that all the little
girls idealized growing up.
And Thusly
the Hipster Princess were born
Then the
Hipster Princesses concept went beyond just the internet memes that were making
their way around the internet. One talented artist took all of the princesses
and drew them dressed in the many common hipster fashions.

The Idea of
the Hipster Princesses also grew bigger with the help of a very creatively
savvy geek. While surfing the web I found this viral video about a hipster
princess musical that was so well done it is just impressive.
Sorry that I
have not posted in a couple of days I promise that I have not forgotten about
my blog. More to come this week I promise just a small bump in the road.
Sincerely
Urban Yeti
