Claudio in love

Firstly, I still find this so funny because Claudio is my father's name, and I also find it coincidental because that is how he claims he "fell in love" with my mom, through his eyes.

So Claudio sees Hero, and falls in love with her on a first glance basis.  I find this to be so superficial and surfaced, but this seems to be the trend of all old plays and even Disney movies.  Think about it, do you think Prince Charming actually cared about what Snow White thought or had to say? No, he just loved her because she was the "fairest of them", all I guess.

Claudio's Hero really had nothing much to say, and basically kept her mouth closed throughout him courting her,  so Claudio must have found a quiet girl desirable.  Well so did Prince Charming (not the same Prince, Walt was just getting lazy with the names).  In sleeping beauty the princess and the prince barely even spoke, I mean the princess was knocked unconscious, for what... was it a hundred years or one thousand?  Either way she was a mute, and he loved her based on looks.

This just goes to show that first impressions are a huge deal to men, so ladies just be easy on the eyes and hold your tongues and you will have your own Claudio very soon.
