So yeah I did a countdown and here are the results. Thanks to everyone who gave me their lists, I really appreciate it :) I would add commentary, but eh, I'll let the comments speak for themselves.
13. hasmin
"Isn't particularly strong, but she does stand against Jafar when he had her captive, and is definitely fervent in her resolve re: arranged marriage." -MacytheStrange
"she is willing to escape even when she knows she's not allowed to and wasn't accustomed to lifeon the streets. She is willing to forgive Aladdin, which could be a sign of strength or weakness, and is always standing up for herself even when she knows she is expected to marry a prince. She's not afraid to be herself." -Diazdiaz95
12. Aurora
((sigh..personally really disappointed in this low placement..))
"she chooses duty over love, which is pretty strong, but that's about it. She doesn't stand up for herself though or do anything to change her situation. She still dreams about a bright future so I guess that's strong but not strong enough." -Diazdiaz95
"She chose duty over love, a remarkable, strong quality, but we don't get the chance to see all of her mental strength" -CRaZy_rawR
11. Belle
"Gave her freedom for her father and stands up to the abusive Beast and the sexist Gaston. But she is slightly snobbish, condescending and nosy." -Silverrose1991
"Stays strong throughout the townspeople calling her a weirdo right in her face, throughout Gaston's unwanted advances, and throughout the Beast's abusive rampaging." -MacytheStrange
10. Ariel
"she did not let her father's prejudice( justifiable as it was) govern how she lived her life. She was willing to pag-ibig someone that she knew her father would not approve of and always stood up for herself. She was open minded and positive and does admit that she made a huge mistake. Speaking of that mistake, that's why she loses points with me and her obsession with a man she doesn't know. She's a teen though and teens can be reckless and alittle selfish at times and boy crazy." -Diazdiaz95
"Ariel always had that strength to stick up for herself, and she still wanted to pursue human life even after her prejudice father decided against it. She is impulsive and reckless though, and makes decisions before she thinks. She is still sixteen, so I wouldn't expect anything else from her." -CRaZy_rawR
9. Pocahontas
"Doesn't blame Nakoma for Kocoum's death, which I find admirable." -Silverrose1991
"Can't think of anything in particular, but she does go against her tribes opinions on the foreigners and in doing so saves John Smith's life." -MacytheStrange
8. Merida
"was unafraid to break with tradition and stand up for herself. She went against her parents wishes because they wanted her to marry someone she didn't love. She was determined and unafraid of what people thought of her. But like Ariel and Snow White she makes a big mistake but at least she tries to fix them and realizes she was wrong. Maybe she should switch with Ariel." -Diazdiaz95
"Admits being wrong for wanting to change her mother, but like Ariel, she is harsh." -Silverrose1991
7. Elsa
"She is so low on other people's list. I think she was suffering from anxiety and it takes mental strength to overcome it. Whether she did or not, it takes mental strength to just handle it." -dimitri_
" I'm not sure. She shows plenty of weakness since she's always shutting everyone out and she is afraid all the time but she does eventually break free of her fear and realizes her full potential. She is dutiful andIt takes her plenty of strength to control and conceal her powers at first but she was still governed sa pamamagitan ng fear so...." -Diazdiaz95
6. Mulan
"I think it takes madami mental strength to go through training in the army. She had a pretty normal life before though." -dimitri_
"Was told that she didn't fit in with what society expected of her and was a failure as a daughter, but she still broke free of expectations, went to war in her father's place and saved China." -MacytheStrange
5. Tiana
"She went through a lot. Not only is she a woman in the '20s trying to get a restaurant, but she is an African-American woman in the south. People in the movie made remarks about "a woman of your background" and such, but she still stayed as determined as ever." -CRaZy_rawR
"Oddly because of the time and age she grew up in. Now many people (Mainly white I'm being a bit racist here) just watch this movie and think "Well it's not that hard for a woman to run a restaurant." not really thinking that a woman of her color that was as new to the world at the time. Now we see it everyday." -princecatcher93
4. Anna
"Was shut down sa pamamagitan ng her sister for years, yet she never gives up on her and keeps an optimistic attitude." -Silverrose1991
"She has a very optimistic outlook on life, even though she Nawawala her parents at a young age, she was shut out sa pamamagitan ng her sister, and wasn't allowed to communicate with the outside world." -CRaZy_rawR
3. Rapunzel
"She manages to fight back against her emotionally abusive 'mother', after years of being put down sa pamamagitan ng her." -MacytheStrange
"she was alone and brainwashed sa pamamagitan ng Mother Gothel practically her entire life yet she yearned to seethe lanterns no matter what Gothel said. She was optimistic and after leaving the tower she was able to push aside everything that Gothel had told her and saw the world for herself. She even gives up her freedomfor Flynn and realizes on her own that Gothel is evil." -Diazdiaz95
2. Snow White
"she never seems to doubt that she will have a happy ending even after she finds out that the reyna wants to kill her. She is treated like a servant yet is still positive. The biggest problem is that she falls for the queen's trick and ignored what the dwarves had sinabi about talking to strangers." -Diazdiaz95
"She had it worst but I don't think she is as aware of her problems as the other Princesses which doesn't make her stronger than the other Princesses to me." -dimitri_
1. Sinderella
"Since the death of her beloved father she had been abused and bullied sa pamamagitan ng her stepmother and stepsisters. She has to see her childhood tahanan fall into disrepair and see her father's money being wasted with dresses, hats, cosmetics, etc. Her stepmother is constantly playing with her hopes, and even after the traumatic physically abusing dress-ripping scene she still manages to look the woman who has made her life a hell in the eyes." -Silverrose1991
"She went through a lot of crap. She and her father supposedly were really close; then the Tremaines came along. They tortured her and really were mean and abusive to her. She still remained hopeful that her life would get better." -CRaZy_rawR
