How is it that my list, besides numbers 1-3, is constantly changing? I love them all, just some more than others. Yet everytime I rewatch one of their movies, it's like seeing them for the very first time. And of course I am a woman, and we are known for always changing our mind ;) Anyways, here is my updated favorite Princess list.
9. Aurora
She used to be my 7th favorite, now she is 9th. It doesn't mean I love her any less; it basically boils down to the fact that I just want to see more of her. Anytime I watch Sleeping Beauty, I'm always skipping to the parts with her in it, and before I know it, I'm done watching the movie. She's graceful, angelic, and downright beautiful, and I'd kill to have her hair. It is perfect.
8. Snow White
Snow White remains my 8th favorite. She is so irritatingly sweet. How can you not like her? Sure she goes into peoples houses without being invited in, but she does clean and cook a pot of stew while she's there! Like Cinderella, Snow White is ever so sweet and kind, even though her Stepmother is out to get her. And in the end, all of her dreams come true.
7. Jasmine
Princess Jasmine used to be my 5th favorite. I think she is absolutely gorgeous. I love her big eyes and her long luscious hair. I can't stand it when people say she's a bitch. So she stands up for herself...people need to do that more, myself included. She knows what she wants, and will stop at nothing to get it.
6. Pocahontas
Pocahontas used to be my 4th favorite. I still think she is the most beautiful out of the whole bunch. I just can't get over the fact that she becomes kind of dull and boring after meeting John Smith. When we first meet her, she's jumping off of cliffs and canoeing down waterfalls. After meeting ol' Smithy, she just acts so serious. Lighten up. Don't lose your identity because of a man.
5. Mulan
This girl used to be 9th! I just rewatched Mulan last night, and she is just awesome. She's fun, adventurous, brave, and honorable. She's willing to risk her life for her Father. How many of us would be willing to make that kind of sacrifice? She is the underdog throughout most of the film. We all sat back and rooted for her; wanting her to suceed...and she did! She saves all of China by defeating the evil Hun army. She is total kick ass. There's nothing negative to say about her.
4. Tiana
Tiana was my 6th favorite. I don't know why, but lately I've been addicted to the Princess and the Frog (it maaaaaay have something to do with Naveen). Each time I watch it, I love Tiana even more. We're both from the south, we're both the only child, both are close with our Moms, and both of us have had to work hard for what we have. I get her. I love her look, even though I wish they'd let her freaking her down! She's sweet, but firm.
3. Ariel
My top three are still the same. At #3, is the lovely Ariel. I love her to freaking death. What's not to love about a mermaid?! She has awesome red hot hair, which no one else could pull off quite like her. She's funny, sassy, adventurous and full of endless determination.
2. Belle
I have loved her since the very first time I saw Beauty and the Beast when it was originally released in theatres. I felt like her most of my life...living in a small, boring lifeless town. eventually I got out, and so did Belle. I love how she doesn't judge the book by its cover. She is genuine, and honest.
1. Cinderella
I know...BIG surprise that she is my #1. This was the first movie ever purchased for me. I saw it for the first time when I was 3, and I've pretty much been obssessed with her ever since. Then I went to Disney World when I was 4, and that LITERALLY sent me over the edge. I knew what I wanted to be when I grew up: Cinderella! To this day seeing her makes me feel like that little girl again. I love everything about this Princess. Even though life has treated her badly, she remains just as sweet and kind as ever.

"Well well, isn't it a coincidence that 2 princesses and 2 princes from 2 different eras meet each other. I'm not surprise at all!" said Maleficent coolly.
"Who are you?" asks Cinderella, frightened and trying to keep her voice as calmly as ever. "I'm Maleficent, the Mistress of all Evil." replied Maleficent with pride, Aurora suspects that this isn't the Maleficent that she always knew, as she can tell from the glow onto her eyes. This is an evil Maleficent!
Aurora immediately yelled "You are not Maleficent! You're the evil Maleficent!" At this point, Maleficent declares "It's true! I'm not your Maleficent anymore and I was the one who magically transported you here!" She cracks into her evil laughter and vanishes.
At this point, Aurora bursts into tears and Cinderella, Prince Philip and Kit came to comfort her. Saying that the evil fairy will be perished.

Prince Ali, yes it is he
But not as you know him
Read my lips and come to grips with reality
Yes, meet a blast from your past
Whose lies were too good to last
Say hello to your precious Prince Ali!
So Ali turns out to be merely Aladdin
Just a con, need I go on?
Take it from me
His personality flaws
Give me adequate cause
To send him packing on a one-way trip
So his prospects take a terminal dip
His assets frozen, the venue chosen
Is the ends of the earth - whoopee!
So long, ex-Prince Ali!

This is my opinion only. But I believe the reasons that Evil Queen from Snow White and Lady Treamine from Cinderella mistreat the titular characters is different from the in-story explanation.
Evil Queen used the fact Snow was pretty as an excuse to get rid of an heir to the throne which I presumable that the Queen was ruling for Snow.
Lady Treamine's daughters might be older by a few months in the animated Disney movie. And back in those days older daughters were suppose to marry before younger ones.
I don't really have a reason for Edward's step-mother, Narcissa. But I assume that the Kingdom is suppose to be run mostly by a Queen?
