Could you help me giving the translation in your language of this fairy tale personnage ? My definition of mith is to focus on the hypotesis that it reflects a kind of man whom is object of intense ambivalence in women ( maybe with some differences among the different countries). On Oxford Dictionary he is : " both handsome and of admirable character". Well, it sounds a little bit like if defining a woman " both handsome and clever". It seems that you must be very lucky to find a partner with both these qualities ! There is more : usually Prince Charming save an unlucky woman ( from fairy tales to the wonderful " Pretty Woman" whore of the Julia Roberts film ). This phantasy seems to be related to the freudian definition of " the nurturing mother and the defending father "...but ...there is something more, probably different among the countries.
