The "Kuzco is a Disney Princess!" meme has always bugged me, primarily because it seems to stem from the idea that a man remotely concerned about his appearance or has a flamboyant personality is somehow coded as "feminine". Regardless of whether or not they identity as such or created that way, the aforementioned male is seen as less "masculine" or "manly" as say Kronk or Pacha. Kuzco's an emperor, dude ranks above a "Disney Princess" technically, financially, politically and metaphorically. Most importantly, he can still be fabulous in all his particularly vain ways without being labeled a "princess". [SOURCE: 1, 2, 3]
