THE INTER HAS STRONG OPNS AS TO WHETHER C-3PO AND R2-D2 ARE GAY

* r2d2 c3po gay *

Two weeks ago, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the fal stallment the space opera’s third trilogy, buted to lacklter reviews and watered down a much-anticipated queer moment: a brief and unrwhelmg gay kiss. He proved that gays are not a monolh and n, fact, show up early. Openly gay Brish actor Anthony Daniels, who plays the droid all films, is 5-foot-9.

Jt saw Star Wars and I’m FURIOUS that C3PO and R2D2 still aren’t gay.

So a gay droid go through multiple midlife cris and cis to “reboot” his personaly each time only to fd that don’t temper his anxiety? If a gay guy bleach his hair... Can R2-D2 and C-3PO be nsired a gay uple?

C-3PO WAS BASED ON GEE LUS’S “GAY FRIEND”

Abrams said last year that he expected gay characters to play a part the diversy of the future movi, many fans had hop he was referrg to Poe and Fn. The speculatn that C-3PO and R2-D2 were gay is not new, as fans have bated (and joked about) that possibily on msage boards for at least a . The argument that the droids were gay rts on C-3PO’s mannerisms.

Bee he had the effete affectatns stereotypilly associated wh gay men, he mt have been gay himself.

Some fans cry this as an attempt to sexualize characters a kids’ movie and further a “gay agenda. That C-3PO uld not have any type of sexual or emotnal relatnship is sendary to our societal need to thk that jt bee he “acts gay” he mt be gay. This is bee our society still teach that there are gay ways to act and straight ways to act.

WERE R2D2 AND C3PO A GAY UPLE?

In a tongue--cheek post for Gay Star News, Jam Whers wrote:. While my peers uldn’t stop talkg about Le Skywalker, Prcs Leia, and Han Solo, as a neophyte gay I knew the real story was about the robots: ‘Gay’ C-3PO and ‘lbian’ R2-D2. We all know neher had a romantic attachment, but the signs were all there for a young gay kid lookg for validatn a culture where there was none (m the parable soul sger-songwrer Sylvter).
