Sometimes I think of how we went from the simple little line “you’re gonna love my boyfriend” in Paranorman (2012) which felt groundbreaking in children’s media at the time (and ticked off a fair number of people who consider lgbt+ content too ‘adult’ for children asfsdf)
To actual gay weddings in Steven Universe and Arthur, to openly gay and affectionate dads in She-Ra…
Progress for lgbt+ representation is slow and there’s always backlash and opposition. But it feels like there’s hope and I’m so happy lgbt+ and queer kids get to see themselves in media.
