IS ELSA GAY? WHY FROZEN 2 DON'T ADDRS THE TOPIC
Hi your kids! Anti-gay nspiracy theorists warn that the crilly-acclaimed rtoon is actually homosexual propaganda. * frozen gay movie *
In this way, even though Disney films ually offer a tradnal happy endg wh a heterosexual marriage, the journey always volv rejectg parental and societal expectatns, and exercisg a “eedom to marry whomever you love” spir that is enmic to gay, many Disney romanc are exampl of “impossible sire, ” a trope that is ccial to the queer experience, as genr-studi theorist Heather Love argued Feelg Backward.

KEN HAS ALWAYS BEEN BARBIE’S GAY BT FRIEND—NOT HER BOYIEND
* frozen gay movie *
While Disney didn’t exprsly nfirm Elsa’s LGBTQ+ inty the Frozen anchise, the Queer-dg led fans to believe she was gay.
There has been a shift, though, Disney animatn, as the stud announced that the upg Strange World (2023) will feature Disney’s first openly gay teen romance.
DISNEY’S ‘FROZEN’ IS NOT A ‘GAY’ FILM (BUT I WISH WERE)
Fans have speculated about Elsa's sexualy sce Frozen was first released 2013, but Frozen 2 still don't addrs whether or not she's gay.
KEV MAXEN BE FIRST MALE ACH A US MEN’S PROFSNAL SPORTS LEAGUE TO PUBLICLY E OUT AS GAY
Given Disney's fear of alienatg parents (or media censors untri like Rsia) who aren't tolerant of LGBTQ+ them children's entertament, 's not surprisg that the stud didn't make Elsa gay Frozen 2.
The st and creators of the Frozen movi are much more on board wh a gay Elsa than Disney seems to be. Rpons on the matter range om vague to hopeful, givg fans a spark of possibily for a gay Elsa the future. While the films have heavily hted at Elsa's sexualy wh subtext the lyrics and through Elsa's strong relatnships wh women, n fans expect Disney to make her the first gay Disney prcs a third movie?
"Let Go" beme a gay anthem for those stgglg wh or embracg their sexualy, and all Disney had to do was give Elsa a girliend.
SO, HOW GAY IS DISNEY’S FROZEN?
Whether Elsa is gay, aromantic, asexual, or any batn of the three remas to be seen, but there's a lot standg the way of that happeng. More signifint gay relatnships have appeared on smaller-sle Disney+ shows - but wh the more nservative nature of major Disney films, would have taken a miracle for Disney to make Elsa gay.
GAY WATER, A NEW NNED CKTAIL, WANTS TO BE THE ANTI-BUD LIGHT
It wasn't likely that Disney would risk parents boyttg their most succsful animated anchise by makg Frozen's leadg lady gay.

The parallels between Elsa's parents rejectg her powers and the backlash the gay muny fac when they e out to their fay is palpable.
Given that Frozen 2 took around six years to plete, the social climate standg the way of a gay prcs may change between now and then. Wh the wrers tentatively on board, if Elsa shows them the rabow way, a gay Elsa plot would have to make s way past a lot of sks to e to un.

While Disney's effort for LGBTQ+ cln is mimally there, the pany has yet to take a step toward creatg a signifint gay role one of their major anchis. What was remarkable, though, was s cln of Disney’s first openly gay teen character, Ethan Cla played by Jaboie Young-Whe. The film won’t say , but a post-creds punchle about Ken’s handwrg, plete wh hearts and stars surroundg his name, tells what we need to heavily implied nature of Ken’s gayns Toy Story 3 harkens back to Hollywood’s tradnal gay bt iend-type characters.
In the Hays Co era, explic referenc to homosexualy weren’t allowed, so characters like Van Buren (Frankl Pangborn) 1937’s Easy Livg, Kip (David Wayne) 1949’s Adam’s Rib, or Addison (Gee Sanrs) 1950’s All About Eve stead were imbued wh effemate characteristics, offerg a glimpse outsi of heteronormativy whout explicly beg of the characters were the same—some were tty, others sweet. Des later, 2010, the gay bt iend was all the rage; Teen Vogue even went so far as to proclaim the GBF as the summer’s mt-have accsory.
In movi like Mean Girls (2004), The Devil Wears Prada (2006), Easy A (2010), No Strgs Attached (2011), and Isn’t It Romantic (2019), gay iends exist entirely the orb of their female iends. ” But Barbie do, and for Ken, that’s are plenty of reasons why the film wouldn’t outrightly state that Ken is homosexual.

Mattel, of urse, vehemently nied any claims that Ken was gay, let alone that he had somethg as prepostero as a ck rg around his neck. As a rult, gay men bought the doll drov, and spe Mattel ultimately rellg the doll and wipg away any trace of Earrg Magic Ken, was near-impossible to see Ken as anythg but the glor homosexual he was born to be om then on.
Though Mattel don’t seem to be willg to say Ken is actually gay, the Ken dolls of recent years seem to really lean to Ken’s queerns. While there is no way to “drs gay, ” there are several dolls that seem to suggt otherwise, such as:Fashnista Ken #193, who looks very exced to tell you about his new obssn, Troye Sivan;Travel Ken Doll, who has a satchel perfect for bathho and a purple overnight bag that lerally proclaims he’s “extra;”Ken Looks Doll, servg “I’m gonna give you a makeover”-type realns while sportg black pleather pants;This Ken, who wears the least heterosexual double nim I have a feelg the new Barbie movie will put the work to nvce that Ken is a hetero du who lov nothg life more than Barbie herself, the wrg’s already on the wall: Ken is, and always will be, Barbie’s gay bt obssg!
A Mormon grandmother has whipped the blogosphere to a enzy wh her nouncement of new Disney mil Frozen as homosexual propaganda rptg our youth, whilst on the other si of the aisle queer Disney fans are praisg the animated movie as a triumph for gay reprentatn , eher way, this really isn’t the “well-behaved Mormon woman” Kathryn Skaggs argu that the film’s msage of tolerance, exemplified by the Osr-nomated song “Let It Go”, is signed to advance “the homosexual agenda” (’s worth notg other Mormons have spoken out strongly agast Skaggs’ claims). I don’t wish to dismiss anyone’s terpretatn, or tell someone they’re watchg a film “the wrong way” – but for me at least, the claims jt don’t add me tell you how many “gay” scen there are Frozen: One.

A Christian film reviewer says that ntrary to one pastor's claim that Frozen has a "homosexual agenda, " Disney's popular film actually offers a "rponsible and fay iendly" msage. "For all that Asay sought to praise, Pastor Kev Swanson, the host of a weekly program on the Colorado-based Generatns Rad, strongly censured the film - even though he adms he had not seen - suggtg that was a tool of Disney, which he scribed as "probably one of the most pro-homosexual anizatns the untry.
I wonr if people are thkg: 'You know I thk this cute ltle movie is gog to doctrate my 5-year-old to be a lbian or treat homosexualy or btialy a light sort of way', " said Swanson. "In ntrast, Asay, who reviewed the film for his se, said that "you would really need to ph" to suggt that the film's empowerment msage "uld be taken as some gay-iendly metaphor. ""I thk you have to remember that the msag - that ''s okay be different' - far predate the sort of drive for gay equaly that we fd now — far, far predate , " said Asay.
SWANSON: DISNEY’S ‘FROZEN’ IS A SATANIC PH TO TURN KIDS GAY
I thk that when you look at Elsa's story, I took not as any gay metaphor but really talkg a lot about what almost all kids feel as they go through adolcence. His sensibily as a gay artist has shaped and elevated the magaze’s athetic, but he has to keep his creativy check lt Mx be seen as a magaze for gay men.
But fish strong, as the nflict over Richie’s bathhoe project grows and Mx has to nsir whether ’s too risky for the magaze to speak to gay men, or even gay moments like this, the historil fictn feels not entirely historil. Per Outsports, as of September 2022, there have only ever been 16 players NFL history to publicly e out as gay or bisexual. Per Outsports, Maxen is the “first publicly out male ach a major Amerin men’s pro sports league, ” wh WNBA ach Curt Miller, who publicly me out to the media as gay 2015, also a publicly out male ach an Amerin profsnal sports league.
For now, though, I want to addrs somethg I noted passg my review: the qutn of gay-culture them Frozen. All of this seems to me a) clearly if subtly exprsive of a pro-gay culture at Disney, and b) not that big a al, asmuch as the them are subtle and ambiguo enough not pose eher a signifint annoyance to even savvy parents or a rptg fluence on children. (I would not say that of the pro-gay them the lik of Madagasr 2 or the Happy Feet movi; those are a different tegory, and I do object to them.
CONSERVATIVE RAD HOSTS: ‘FROZEN’ PROMOT GAY AGENDA, BTIALY
However, there’s another pro-gay element Frozen worth notg that I origally missed: a fleetg but fe suggtn that a mor character has a fay nsistg of a same-sex partner and a bunch of children.
