As was said by someone else I think there are parents who would find it difficult to explain topics relating to sexuality to a five year old. It's not necessarily an implication they'd feel the relationship inappropriate more that many parents aren't ready to talk about relationships of any kind with very young children.

It's all about the framing. "Timmy from playgroup has two dads", that places it in a context they can relate more to, than "the man down the road fancies other men"

Honestly, looking at older cartoons, there were a lot of subtle creepy/darker themes in them... so it's not like it's outside the ballpark for Disney to include LGBT characters (and in some ways, they've always pioneered the challenging of traditional roles). It's just doing it in a way that is not cliche'd that is actually new, unique and inventive... that would be the biggest challenge I think, to not end up with gimmicks... there is supposed to be a lot of depth to Disney stories... and that's what most people enjoy about them, is how relatable and yet how deep their storylines are... something that all children can connect with at a very basic level

Disney is already Gay AF, What is more gay than Disney anyway? i think it makes sense that Disney embraces how gay they are. How many straight people do you know over 12 that love Disney?
I still have crushes on Prince Eric and Aladdin.

Slutty princesses/princesses with STDs? Wtf no lmao
LGBT princess/prince? Here for that. Kids need to see what it’s like to be LGBT from a young age, so that they can be more accepting when they are older Although having said that, kids are the most accepting people in the world anyway. Ignorance is taught and can be changed. Kids from my experience just want to love everyone anyway.

I honestly think it's interesting that Elsa could easily be gay as no interest in anyone at all was implied in the first Frozen film. Which is quite "progressive" for Disney in itself... Having a main character with ZERO hint of a romantic subplot. They potentially seem to be heading more in that direction as, despite having both a female and male lead, there was no hint of a romance storyline in Moana either, again going with a more "sibling-like" vibe.

If you don't have a problem with the prince and princess living happily ever after then you can't take issue with two princes or two princessses having that same ending. Sexuality is an issue that affects kids, some kids are gay, why can't they have representation? Why is any sexuality that isn't heterosexuality seen as not appropriate for kids? It's the idea again that being gay is seen as being this overtly sexual thing that's only suitable for older audiences and it's a terrible attitude to have. Like I said in my first post, you can portray a chaste homosexual relationship just as well as a chaste hetero relationship. There is no real excuse against it really, the representation can go a long way in helping children feel accepted instead of feeling like they are inherently wrong. |
