You are catering to my craving for neglected-fanfic-for-classic-literature. :D
The fairy tale style of the language adds to the creepiness, methinks. Disney would have to disembowel this quite thoroughly for its target audience of kids. XD Yes, the sexism worked well--mentioned off-handedly, like the author assumes of course those who read this piece will understand what he means.
I'm a sucker for outsider POV. It's fascinating to see how the situation is perceived by those not in the know.
Clearly I must read more! :D Also, I have never heard of Nashe's "The Terrors of the Night"--that will be something on my (lamentably long) to-read list.
You profess to be a shameless thief, but you are a very talented one. ;)
