unhinged lesbian hosts disney's 'first gay character' olympics

the gay coming out scene in jungle cruise inspired this chaotic video - sorry not sorry in advance

___HIRE ME___

I deliver engaging and inspiring workshops and talks at events, businesses, and universities across the world (see below for more details).



___WORKSHOPS___

I facilitate tailor made workshops, designed to give participants a variety of discussion opportunities, interactive elements, and a final longer task individually or as part of a group.

The goal of my workshops is that participants come out of the them with actionable points to be put into practice afterwards, rather than feeling as if they had simply talked through the same old topics on that subject.

___TALKS & PANELS___

Talks, presentations, panels and Q&As allow for an in depth look at a topic or issue. I can deliver solo talks on a specific topic and/or moderate or sit on group panels. I have previously spoken on topics including:

- Building Inclusive Communities

- Using YouTube for social good and charitable efforts

- LGBTQ+ Representation on TV/Film

- LGBTQ+ History

- Pop culture and Feminism

- Writing Strong Female Characters

- Women on YouTube

- How to use YouTube/social media as a tool in your career.

- & many more.

Maybe the real first gay character was the friends we made along the way

[atinyevil]

This video really showed me just how much our representation has evolved. We’ve gone from fabulous villains to unmemorable background characters. So progressive.

[joshm]

the background lesbians are always my favorite part because even though they have no part in the plot and they’re only there for seconds, my dad would be absolutely infuriated that the gay agenda was being shoved in his face

[Genitianadinarica]

I for one am really uncertain whether I prefer the nuance of background lesbians in Finding Dory, the complexity of background lesbians in Toy Story, or the strength of background lesbians in Star Wars. They were so brave to include such diverse and complex representation.

[needsanewbrain]

the line "if there's one thing we know about these lesbian mums, it's that they have a child" made me nearly swallow my chewing gum laughing

[rosiebrie]

Can't believe Disney chose LeFou for their "rep" in the remake when Lumiere and Cogsworth were Right There acting like an old married couple in the original.

[katherinemorelle]

“If there’s one thing I know Mickey, it’s the long and loving relationship gays have with the police”

Fire!!!! This entire thing was stunning!

[isabelhoch]

its a shame that alberto and luca couldn’t attend. they were missed, but not forgotten.

[rainbowbun]

I just want to say that Disney has given me so much as a lesbian! Everytime I feel alone and like I never fit in and I’m not important, I think about the several and I feel so much better.

[Zevzen]

When my mum asked what I was watching, she was genuinely confused. "What gay characters are in disney?" I think that says it all

[mjmage]

I see why Shang didn't meet the requirements, but still, bisexual representation while also being lied to and then literally removed from the live action version seems like it deserves some representation

[Nicole-gtnv]

Please talk about the Owl House, I'm begging you, Rowan. It's actually worth watching and has bisexual, lesbian, and nonbinary rep (NOT A SHAPE-SHIFTER). The main characters say the word "girlfriend" multiple times. The show is fantastic and absolutely a must-watch for anyone looking for good representation in media.

[anjar]

I’m saddened that Timon and Pumba did not qualify for these olympics. I thought they were a-shooing.

[redactedredacted]

That quote from Artie's actor gives off the vibe it was said while Mickey Mouse was watching from a rooftop with a sniper ready.

[SA-mohq]

"We would like to express our allyship for the LGBTQIA+ community, so long as we don't have to actually do anything and can easily excise representation that might reduce our monopoly control of the market. Look, we put a rainbow in the corner!"

[gleefulpebble]

the actual first gay disney character is cyrus goodman, he’s one of three main characters in the show he’s in, has crushes on multiple guys, comes out to different people at least three times that i can remember, gets together with a guy at the end, and actually says the word gay like a bunch of times. and this is in a show for middle schoolers, unlike the high school musical show which has a gay couple but still says shit like “he watches drag race canada” instead of just saying gay. andi mack was a great show

[hilariousbenjamin]

"Chaotic Rowan Unhinged Lesbian Cinematic Univese"

I'm so here for that yes

[mx.acacia]

Next year there should be a new category called "omg we absolutely did not intend to make these characters queer but oh god we accidentally made them super queer didnt we so now we are majorly backtracking" featuring classics like Shang and Mulan from Mulan, Luca and Alberto from Luca, and ofcourse Riley from Inside Out!

[dummyinblue]

LOL personally I think the gayest scene for LeFou was actually when his Hot Straight Friend Gaston manipulates him using LeFou's attraction and feelings for him

[voidify]

“Ursula was the first of the Renaissance queer coded villains” I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS RATIGAN ERASURE
