>>79179041>I wish people would stop equating Elsa turning out to be gay,with incest becoming canon.It's because people arguing for Elsa becoming gay always, always also ship Elsanna and seem to treat Elsa not being confirmed straight meaning she could be a lesbian meaning the tenderness and love she shows to Anna could have romantic tones meaning Elsanna is technically canon.
It always has this gateway theory to it. The people who are the most adamant about Elsa could very well be lesbian, we don't know, it can't be ruled out, it's 2016, look at Korra and SU lesbians are okay now etc - they usually ship Elsanna.
>I don't think it's likely, but it's also not impossible in the current political environment.yeah and theeeeere we go.
Elsa will NEVER be canonically gay. They would have had to out her in the first movie.
She's an extremely popular cashcow, and Disney is making bank on selling merch to parents whose little toddler and preschool-age girls adore and idolise Elsa, want to dress like her, want to pretend to BE her.
Frozen II is at least 2 years away. It'll be 3 years of parents allowing their daughters to obsess and emulate a Disney (familiar, reliable brand) Princess who they perceive as straight. If Disney would then pull the rug from under their feet and suddenly turn her gay, the shitstorm would be unimaginable. There'd be literal death threats. The Disney brand wouldn't recover.
I mean, it's one thing to be fine with gays having rights and representation, but it's a very different thing when your own 6 yo daughter is suddenly talking about how girls kissing girls is awesome because Elsa does it and they want to be like Elsa. Very different thing.
Anyone thinking it could happen is fucking delusional, man. Disney will eventually have a canon gay character, probably sooner than expected since the current political environment is more gay-positive than before, but they won't start with a main char, let alone an already-introduced character.
