The Daddy’s Girl Trope - Why Our Culture Fetishizes Her

In our culture, the father/daughter relationship is a romance. And the ‘daddy’s girl’ is seen through the rose-colored glasses of a father who never wants her to grow up. Onscreen, she's an idealized – but stunted – version of femininity, one who’s focused on pleasing and getting praise for doing whatever her dad approves of. The dynamic appears in adulthood as a kind of role play: with the daughter as an infantilized, helpless innocent, and the father her heroic savior.
