Did you know Cinderella was a whore? No joke.
The original story of Cinderella is hilarious. Shows what appeals to the female brain that the story persisted.
Originally, Cinderella was a courtesan (fancy word for whore) and a bird picked up her slipper and flew off. The bird dropped the slipper in the king's courtyard and the king became enamored with the slipper. He began a search to discover who the slipper belonged to ... Happily ever after.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Then Disney changed it to what it is now.
Courtesan, in modern usage, is a euphemism for a kept mistress or prostitute, particularly one with wealthy, powerful, or influential clients.[1] The term historically referred to a courtier, a person who attended the court of a monarch or other powerful person.[2]

A courtier might not necessarily exchange in sex with people she is not married to for political favors
But since that probably happened so often
Might be why courtesan is slang for prostitute
