[The new version of the fairytale
has been judged unsuitable for children,
with some Russian critics calling
it 'perverted'.
Ultra-conservative lawmakers
previously tried to ban the film,
citing the controversial Russian law
that makes it illegal to disseminate
"gay propaganda" to minors.
The film had previously been
announced as 6+ in its Russian
promotional campaign.
In a letter to the Russian
culture minister, anti-gay politician
Vitaly Milonov called the Disney film
"blatant, shameless propaganda
of sin and perverted sexual relationships".]

[LeFou's love for Gaston has
been described as Disney's
'first exclusively gay moment']

Exactly, its kinda funny that it had to be pointed out that there was a gay character before they put the 16 rating on it

"Russia are now re-evaluating popular shows Are you being served and the character of Lukewarm in Porridge"

"Is it is also reported that popular LBGT mystery author Rob Innes will have his visa blocked, not due to the nature of his books but his resemblance to a young Lukewarm"

Was just going to say, Russias is fine with Bestiality propaganda though

[Marsh.]

Seriously.

They were going to buy the rights to Mrs. browns Boys too but Brendan O'Carroll refused to let them cut the gay couple in it. Not a fan of his but good for him for standing his ground

Its mad! It doesnt really make sense how backwards the are regarding homosexuality - all their neighbouring countries are fine with it, and their education levels are really high on a global scale. Putin needs to go. Theyre just living in the same rut as they were when he started.

Yeah definitely. Also, events like the World Cup being held there is disgraceful, they shouldn't be allowed host it, their football is rife with racism and their fans were one of the only countries to cause so much trouble at the Euros last year

tbf though Disney has only done this scene as a stunt

[Marsh.]

Wow how dare they have gay characters.

That can only be a stunt.

It is just not needing in this film if they want to do LGBT stuff make a new film.

It is just a 2 second kiss in a 2 hour film

So basically, if a movie wants to be inclusive about LGBT characters, they should make a big deal out of it because gay people can't just exist naturally alongside a story that isn't centered around their sexuality. Got it.

It is a clear stunt Disney just want money that is there main aim.

[Lostie!]

Yeah, I reckon this movie would have been at serious risk of flopping before they added a minor gay character.

[Denver]

You can tell its a stunt when they sterotype the character 10 fold

[Withano]

Everyone pretending that one of Disneys alltime biggest stars wasnt a lesbian?

Spoiler:

[Denver]

I dont get why everyone is fan girling Disney doing it either as they are like a decade late to the party

[Tom4784]

Because it's better to be late than not show up?

Would you rather they had no progressive elements in their stories?

Most of Disneys characters are over the top and stereo typed though
