I'm probably going to get flack for this, but the thing that- I guess- I find "unfeminist" about the Disney Princess fandom is that the princesses are gnerally loved more for their presentation and image than for their personalities, or for the exploration of them as dynamic characters. People do love Belle because she is a bookworm, and Ariel because of her free spirit, and so on, but it usually doesn't go much deeper than that. Most of the fanworks with the princesses seems to come in creating fanart of them in different costumes. There is usually little dialogue found in fanworks of Disney princesses. The love they inspire over other female characters in media feeds into the idea that women and their image are what people find the most engaging.

I think this is fair. I have issues with the way the characters are marketed even if I love the characters themselves (though they are still far from flawless).

Yeah I can see what you're saying because there is that aspect of fandom. I mean it's Disney fandom, and Disney more then any other studio always has the goal of making super cute, super marketable, and super appealing designs (they may not always achieve it and individual opinions will vary, but this is the goal.) So there are a number of people who are less concerned about personality and more into making something pretty and shiny, and in the case of some people, sexy.

But that's also why I dislike a lot of popular Disney fanwork. I think there is good stuff out there and there are people who pay attention to personality, but it's not always the popular stuff so you have to dig for it.
