Well moral of the story is: Once we changed a fairy tale because it was too offencive, now we've become so fragile and sure that life imitates art instead of art imitating life, that we made the fairy tail illegal.

BURN THE GOLDEN BOOK!

I just see it as progress. There once was a time when humans thought nothing was wrong with raping a sleeping woman (and telling kids about it). Then there was a time when kissing a sleeping woman without her consent was considered ok. Now we've progressed to understanding that no one deserves any kind of sexual act being done to them without their consent.

Humanity gets better over time, there's your real happy ending.

may I introduce you to the last time we thought this same behavior was progress because art contradicted social constructs:

If you research or dissect biblical stories, you can find all kinds of stuff like the alteration of Sleeping Beauty. The story of Lot and his two daughters is a good one to start with.
