People think the moral of Disney's Beauty and the Beast is supposed to be something like "don't judge people by appearances" but that's really not it. That is a possible moral of some other versions of the story but the Disney version has a different lesson actually and it's "people can change." And I think this becomes obvious when we look at the Beast and Gaston as foils to each other. Because they both start out arrogant, selfish, and petty. Perhaps most importantly, at the outset neither of them really cares about Belle's feelings. Gaston wants to marry her because she's beautiful, and the Beast hopes she might break the spell, but neither is really considering her needs or desires at all, at the start. But the Beast changes. He tries to make Belle happy. He learns to put her first, to love her unselfishly, which culminates in him letting her go. Meanwhile Gaston responds to Belle's rejection by plotting to coerce her into doing what he wants anyway. He never spares a thought for what she wants. He never changes.
But where it gets really interesting is when you compare their supporting characters. Because all Gaston has around him are sycophants who will tell him how wonderful he is. So he never sees any need to change. Whereas the Beast's servants - even though they are his servants - don't hesitate to tell him when he needs to clean up his act. They are constantly reminding him to mind his manners, control his temper, and consider things from Belle's point of view.
So people can change - but they need help to do it.

we need more pathetic female characters written by authors who don't hate women
to be clear since this is making the rounds: she has to be an absolute loser in no way that can be pinned on her gender. no "i'm just a girl tee-hee" stuff. straight up just a loser (nondenominational)
addendum: she must be the most important person in the whole narrative
I decided to sit down and concentrate and properly write the list of rules that qualify a character for this role.
FIRST LAW: This character must be a woman.
SECOND LAW: This character must be a loser, but not in a way that can be pinned on her gender. Misogynistic response from the audience does not disqualify the character.
THIRD LAW: If the audience does not enjoy this character, then it becomes impossible to enjoy the show/film/book/game altogether. It is not possible to ignore this character, for better or for worse.
FOURTH LAW: The character must make bad decisions, and not just be a victim of poor circumstances outside of her control. The character can also be a victim of poor circumstances outside of her control, but it has to be primarily her personal choices that deem her a loser.
