In the first “Shrek” film, the characters of Donkey and Shrek have a discussion about Ogres having layers, like onions and cakes. Meaning that there's more to them than what first meets the eye. This is true in the realm of IT security too.
Why does Shrek compare himself to an onion?
Maybe I think too much into things, but I have come to see the importance of this scene in Shrek. Shrek says ogres are like onions because they have layers and I agree. Yes, I am about to compare us humans to ogres. Not because we're big and green or even smelly, but because we have SO many layers.
Is Ogres are like onions a metaphor?
“Ogres are like onions… we both have layers”, says Shrek in Dreamwork's hit 3D-animation Shrek. The famous green protagonist uses this analogy to describe his complicated personality. Much like an onion, it can take a while of peeling away frivolous outer appearances to understand the core of who Shrek is.
