Childhood fairytale
When I was little, my favorite fairy tale was Robin Hood. I think the idea of chivalry was very appealing to me. As a male he was, strong, handsome, skillful, and had good morals. Overall I think that Robin Hood had a positive message. If you can, protect those who are treated unjustly. The one bad thing I remember believing is that rich people are bad, and it was ok to take from them, as long as it was for the greater good. I realize now that isn't right and it wasn't the message trying to be portrayed, but as a child I couldn't decipher this for myself. I believed to be a hero like Robin Hood I had to be strong, and smart, not to mention in every adaptation of Robin Hood he is handsome. Even in a cartoon version where they're all animals, Robin Hood's a fox, and the term "fox" has been used to describe an attractive person. I feel that Robin Hood did influence me as a child in a positive way. Even though I misconstrued some of the message, I had the right idea and it was for the better.
