We all know the story of Cinderella. But I heard the story was not told accurately. In fact, from what I understand, Cinderella simply wanted to go the the ball because she wanted to see how the other half lived, and to get out of the house and dance and let her hair down for a change. But that prince started stalking her. He was so arrogant, he actually called himself "Prince Charming" (!). The last thing Cinderella wanted was to get stuck marrying some hyper-entitled, arrogant brat who makes self-aggrandizing nicknames for himself, especially if he's a pretty boy!
The truth is, Cinderella wanted a he-man stuff prince like Prince Valiant. The only problem is that Prince Valiant ended up being some pansy who named himself "Prince Valiant", and because he was the prince, everyone had to call him that or else be tortured or executed.
And so, fed-up with pretentious princes, Cinderella used her skills and expertise to found a janitorial company that cleans up for spoiled jerks who refuse to do their own housework. And in the kingdom she's from, that's apparently everybody. And so her company became the biggest and most successful company in the land, and Cinderella became the most high-powered business leader therein, out-earning even the Royal family, who all had to bow down to her or else be left out of her cleaning empire's clientele and thus live in filth forevermore.
And so it was that Cinderella's hard-working ways won her not only her freedom in the end, but also made her fortune as a career woman. And as a high-powered independent businesswoman and industry leader, who needs to marry some spoiled inbred prince?
And as it turned out, her glass slippers were the perfect thing to use to shatter the glass ceiling!
