If you had a patronus, it would be a butthole.

“I think the people hoping for a lesbian princess need to be reminded that Disney movies are aimed at kids. I don’t think there is anything wrong with being gay, but to push the idea at kids before they understand what that means will only confuse them. Also as a parent, I would be pissed at Disney for addressing such controversial topics in a movie intended for children”.

But here’s what you’re forgetting/not understanding: 

Being gay isn’t controversial 

It isn’t. The fact that a person is gay is not controversial. The only thing controversial is how people feel we should treat gay people. 

There a millions of kids growing up right now that have gay parents, teachers, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. There are many kids in this country who are growing up and are gay themselves. All of those kids don’t get a chance to see their reality in media. 

We “push” the idea of heterosexuality everyday and in every Disney movie. If we had a gay prince or princess we wouldn’t be “pushing” anything, we would just be displaying a different reality that many people have. 

I hate it when people say that “being gay” is controversial. No, it’s not. How we, as a society, want to treat gay people is what is controversial.   

People who say this don’t understand children.

How I explained gay to my kid:

“Mom, your friends, they kiss each other!”

“Who?”

“Those two boys.”

“Yeah, they love each other.”

“Like you loved Daddy?”

“Yeah, just like that. Also, girls can love girls like that too. It’s normal.”

“Ok.”

And then she went off and decided to color. No confusion. No exploding head. Girls can love girls and boys can love boys. She gets it because IT’S NOT A DIFFICULT CONCEPT.

Stop demanding that gay people be hidden away and just TALK TO YOUR FUCKING KIDS.
