a5c7b9f00b The kidnapped daughter of Queen Marlena and King Randor of Eternia (characters from He-Man and the Masters of the Universe), Princess Adora grew up on Etheria. There, she lead an evil army until the day her long-lost twin brother, Prince Adam (He-Man), came to tell her who she really was. As her alter ego, She-Ra, the princess protects Etheria by fighting the forces she once worked for. Princess Adora raises her magic sword and becomes She-Ra, the most powerful woman in the universe, to aid her friends in defeating the Evil Horde so their planet Etheria can be free. Both He-Man and She-Ra were my most favorite cartoons of the 80s but to me She-Ra, yes a fictional cartoon character, gave me a sense of empowerment. What He-Man did for the boys She-Ra did for the girls. I'm grateful for Filmation for creating She-Ra and a role model to look up to. I often wonder what Mike Young Enterprises would have done to She-Ra if they had gotten their hands on her but I just know that it wouldn't have been good. So more power to the girls is all I have to say. She-Ra RULEZ!! Bar none. No question or doubt in my mind that She-Ra is a role model. You can count on my comments being positive about She-Ra. She-Ra was a very obivous attempt to expand the He-Man universe into the barbie dolls and Holly Hobby bracket of society. Guess what, it worked! She-Ra blended a good feminist heroine with plenty of action and adventure. Along with pastel colors and general cuteness for balance. It had good characters, good animation design and for the time period good scripts. What little girl didn't want to be She-ra when she grew up? Plus it had a cool horse. The funny thing about the show was how much it borrowed from Wonder Woman. The secret idenity, the amazonian nature, the main female badgirl based off a cat(catra/cheetrah), ect. Even though the vast majority of 80's cartoons are unwatchable these days. She-ra is still entertaining even if it didn't hold the power it did in the 80's.
