KIDS' NETFLIX CARTOON 'SHE-RA' INTRODUC GAY CHARACTERS
Badass Gay. GAY. Upon first glance, the show is somethg most parents would be fortable wh their kids watchg as long as they uld handle the fantasy vlence, but s send season the TV-Y7 rated seri starts to really ph the gay agenda—whout actually tellg you is.
As Decir put , "If She-Ra Season 1 featured characters who uld be read as queer, Season 2 is blissfully, almost unapologetilly gay. By now, we’re (unfortunately) ed to most of the prime time adult shows havg the requise gay character and, more recently, even the gay child g out has bee popular on h shows, but seems like Hollywood isn’t ntent to stop there.
(DreamWorks / Netflix) I’d bee so ed to beg let down the past that I’d unknowgly ternalized some of the homophobic arguments that have been ma for years about what is or isn’t “appropriate, ” pecially for kids. Strangers on the ter still thk ’s funny to make homophobic ’s this TV show that lets all kids, and specifilly queer kids, see that beg hont about their feelgs n make them a hero is as excg as is important.
ARNE’S VI AND SHE-RA’S CATRA ARE TWO PEAS IN A VERY GAY POD
Turns out her gaydar was way off and Calyn absolutely swgs that way. " Even more pleasg, however, is the fact She-Ra & the Prcs of Power season 5 choos to leave both Adora and Catra alive - neatly avoidg the "Bury Your Gays" trope that has been seen on shows like The 100 and The Walkg Dead. We don’t see the relatnship velop beyond this, but remas groundbreakg, a gay relatnship between two leadg characters a medium that often ph them to the sil.
“I started watchg bee I heard ’s gay but ’s so much more! Also after I fished watchg, I googled the origal She-Ra, and saw that that one, she was He-Man’s sister and he was the one who saved her, and was also only wrten to sell Mattel toys - and look how far she me, gettg her own gay ltle seri wh so many flhed out, diverse, unique characters.

WHAT SHE-RA AND THE PRCS OF POWER’S GAY KISS MEANS TO ITS COMMUNY
Whether or not that’s te, ’s not like Lexa’s btal ath on The 100 four years ago gave me any reason to believe otherwise; the Bury Your Gays trope ntu to thrive, unlike the dozens of LGBTQIA+ characters who have fallen victim to .
That someone end up beg Shadow Weaver, and Catradora saved the entire goddamn universe the shit, glowit, most homosexual way possible, and I’m not sure I’ve ever been more grateful for a happy endg my entire life. This unshakeable anxiety is why the Bury Your Gays trope is so harmful and toxic, and why happy endgs for queer characters matter so damn much.
Hope, bee sacrifice isn’t what ultimately saved the day— was, fact, gay love. We’re not above celebratg the birthdays of fictnal tgirls here at TheGamer, pecially if you’re legendary gay disaster and rtoon nnoissr Ja Kg. We stan an emotnally unstable gay tgirl.
