And this brings us right back to fairy stories, which are usually presented as morality tales. Take Bluebeard, which has more than a little in common with Fifty Shades of Grey, being about a young woman who gets together with an older man who has a secret room full of dark secrets. In the fairy tale, Bluebeard’s young wife is left alone in the house with a set of keys. She is told not to use one of the keys, but she wants to know what’s inside and disobeys the order. Inside are the bodies of Bluebeard’s previous, murdered wives. He tries to kill her for her disobedience, but she escapes.
