Hint: Rapunzel is a German fairy tale that was first published in 1812 as part of Children's and Household Tales by the Brothers Grimm. The Brothers Grimm's story is based on Friedrich Schulz's fairy tale Rapunzel (which was based on Charlotte-Rose de Caumont de La Force's Persinette, which was inspired by Giambattista Basile's earlier Italian tale Petrosinella).

Complete answer:
Rapunzel was a young woman who lived alone in a high tower with a witch who claimed to be her foster mother. Rapunzel had long hair, and when the witch tried to climb the tower, she requested that Rapunzel let her long hair fall from the window.

Amanda considers her mother's unyielding orders to be too much and boring. She imagines herself as Rapunzel so that she can live happily in complete isolation in her high tower with no one intruding on her privacy. She also maintains that she would not encourage anyone to ascend the tower because she would never let her hair down for anyone to hit her.

Amanda aspires to be Rapunzel because she aspires to have the same independence as Rapunzel while staying calm within the tower.

Note: Tangled is a 2010 American 3D computer-animated musical adventure film released by Walt Disney Pictures and produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It is the 50th Disney animated feature film, loosely based on the German fairy tale "Rapunzel" from the Brothers Grimm's series of folk tales.
