Which Disney characters are gay?

Captain EO

Gepetto because he was a single old bachelor

Scar is mad gay.

Gaston is bisexual at least

Captain Hook, but he might be more of a pedophile.

King Arthur

Donald and his "nephews".

Travis from Old Yeller

Walt was trans.

My basic bitch, Prince Eric!

Bashful was bisexual, or else the effeminate heterosexual friend.

Grumpy was obviously gay, as well as Happy, but Happy was actually getting laid.

Dopey is the straight college dick that everyone feeds drugs who's just going to end up selling coke and riding around on a bicycle with bags of empties on the handlebars.

Sneezy has the HIV and Sleepy suffers from Chronic Fatiogue Syndrome <-- Queens

Doc is the older semi-successful guy that only fucks twinks.

Tommy and Gio

These two. I don't really know their names...

R7, you are absolutely wrong.

Grumio and the Toynaker from Babes in Toyland

Yeah, ALL the Disney villains are gay! Ursula the Sea Witch, Scar the Lion, Hades... and then there's Jaffar, who practically screams "Horrors, FISH!" when his sidekick suggests he marry Princess Jasmine.

Maybe we should be objecting to this.

Prince Charming from "Snow White" may look gay, or like a drag queen with that damn jungle red lipstick, but he's not gay he's a pedo.

The Snow White from the classic film was drawn to look like a half-grown, underdeveloped girl of 11 or 12, and a grown man carries her off at the end!

....

Marge Champion was 17 years old when Disney hired her as the model for Snow White. She’s always been a very tiny person. When she turned 18 she married the animator. This wasn’t considered as creepy then as it is today.

Ursula was modeled after Divine.

The whole reason Elsa strikes people as gay is that they left in all the 'skeery-sexy-woman' stuff from her development as the movie's villain. Elsa's dismissive lack of interest in men was intended to be insulting and threatening and a sign that she was the baddie (not Hans.) Also Elsa's sexualized vamping and mildly unsettling flirtatiousness with Anna was meant to make Anna uncomfortable and telegraph to an astute audience that Elsa was very very dangerous and transgressive. "OMG she is kinda acting gay with her own sister!' Once they decided that Elsa's sins were not really enough to condemn her to death by heroic prince -- they literally declared that 'just seeming gay isn't a good enough reason to demonize someone' because they left all the unsettling, kinda gay villain stuff in.

That is seriously why Frozen rocked so much.

Also if Frozen 2 focused on Anna the chances that Elsa would end up gay and celebrated as perfect that way by loving sister Anna are MUCH more likely than them making Elsa the hero of the movie and gay.

No one involved in writing the movie is actually gay or lesbian enough to have a personal stake in telling their own story through Elsa. But Kristen Bell and company sure as hell would like to make a movie about not being an entitled homophobic asshole just because old fashioned fairy tale tropes encourage the demonization of queer seeming people.

But if you read between the lined enough to consider Scar to be gay (and evil) you can also read between the lines and consider Elsa to be gay and Anna to be fed up with all that misogynistic homophobic bullshit that says to her own heroic arc must involve bringing down a transgressive and powerful woman for no reason other than being a big skeeved out that the 'evil' Queen is 'unnatural.'

Horace Horsecollar owns this thread.

Clarabelle Cow was his beard.

Did Jiminy Cricket ever have a girlfriend?

Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather: total Michfest crones

Yeah, all the villains.

Including, I hope, Prince Hans.

[quote]Donald and his "nephews".

Hewey, Louis, Dewey and Joel.

[quote]Did Jiminy Cricket ever have a girlfriend?

Yes, but it was Taylor Swift, so, um...

Prince John.

Gus and Jaq from "Cinderella"

R29 That's fucking hilarious.

Jafar for sure. Probably the parrot too.

31 THREADS AND NO....

The villain uncle from The Lion King. Around the time the movie was popular, Disney took a lot of heat for portraying its male villains as effeminate.

Wasn't Tinkerbell in love with Peter Pan?

Baloo yes, Little John no.

Thomas O'Malley absolutely not.

Tinkerbelle and Periwinkle appear to have been set up as some sort of true love pair in the new Peter Panless Disney Fairies Universe -- but i think they can't be together for some ice magic reason. (What is it, Fairy Hollow?) It was a weird example of Disney scooping Disney because the story appears to be kind of a 'fairies' remake of Frozen that came out a year before Frozen.

Cassandra is constantly coded as Eugene's soft butch lesbian rival for Rapunzel's attention in the TV show. They did give her what could have been considered a male love interest and are 100% definitely not going to have Rapunzel choose her over Eugene, no matter how well things seem to be going. But in the meanwhile she is definitely rocking that cranky lesbian always hanging around the hot chick vibe that makes Eugene's life difficult.

Oaken is gay in Frozen.

Let's see, seven dwarfs, all male, living happily together, and when a woman comes in all they do is dance with her and have her do a bit of housework...

The Disney Princes in Disneyworld making out in the utilidors.

Finn Ryder, of course.

And let's not forget Kristoff... there's a reason he's the only Disney hero not to end up with the girl at the end.

He doesn’t end up with Anna?

R42

Kristoff and Anna are very clearly meant to be a couple in the Broadway version. But the movie and the shorts and the books he is much more like a friend. They even cut down his funny troll song in the last short which is pretty terrible. Kristoff is more likable in large doses than Olaf.

Nope. Doesn't get the girl at all.

R44

Um the fan art is fan art. No one really has any reason to consider Kristoff to be gay except he is voiced by an openly gay actor and so he can be seen as having that cute gay guy vibe that girls fall in love with.

The kiss in your image is clearly set up to indicate that they are starting a relationship rather than simply 'ending up with each other.' But yeah -- if he doesn't end up with Anna in Frozen2 it will be quite unsettling.

Kristof doesn't need the girl -- he got ME!

Shang is bisexual

Not necessarily buying Hans or Kristoff of "Frozen" as gay, although the possibility is there. A humble working man like Kristoff isn't going to make a move on a princess no matter how much he likes her, even if he he'd had a triple-digit IQ and some experience of the world to work with. And as for Hans, an ambitious and heartless straight man would be perfectly happy to seduce a useless idiot of a girl if he thinks he can gain from it, and he'd be looking forward to the day he could get a better quality woman throughout.

However, no straight man goes "Eeeew!" when someone suggests he marry a beautiful woman for gain, like Jaffar did.

Ladies and gentlemen the next Disney Princess Asher Angel. Ok maybe not.

R13 true that those characters are gay-coded. However THE ROAD TO EL DORADO is a DREAMWORKS picture, not Disney.

DREAMWORKS, for the record, are the superior animated filmmakers and have better characters gay or otherwise (with the exception of recent facepalms BOSS BABY & TROLLS, before anyone cites those). From the '90s up until the late '00s DREAMWORKS stomped Disney's withered ass. I have cheered and cried and jumped out of my theater seat watching certain DREAMWORKS pictures, where Disney leaves me (as a connoisseur) cold.

Ah - Dreamworks! I keep forgetting they are still a thing!!

R49 Shake that thing Asher. You go boy!

R3 I've always pegged Simba for gay-leaning bisexual. I mean consider that he:

-is voiced by Jonathan Taylor Thomas (our own qwerty!), Mathew Broderick, and later Rob Lowe -displays bossy showy behaviour as a child, shunning masc activities to sing showtunes (with a female) -has a peculiar fondness for his incredibly-effeminate uncle in spite of the obvious cuntessery of said uncle -has an eccentric elder bachelor (with a spectacularly tasteful treetop penthouse) for a mentor -runs away from home as a preteen to go live with two other eccentric bachelors and learn their 'vegetarian' ways -is so reluctant to return to a Breeder lifestyle in adulthood that he is willing to fuck over his family/tribe to avoid it -mates with his best childhood galpal/cousin just once and stays faithful to her after accidentally knocking her up -has a creepy fixation on his eventual son-in-law Kovu to the point of stalking and taking him out on night 'hunts'

Hercules

Well-known for being Greek-active.

Cassim abandoned his wife & child to poverty when Aladdin was just a little kid. Typical str8 behaviour, right?

Only he disappeared for 20 years or more to live in a cave with 39 other men and no women. He also spends a good chunk of those years searching high and low for a fab gold statue of an EG (Midus) so he can sell it and buy a mansion.

Gaston.

Terk is quite the homophile

ALL OF THE NEWSIES

The original cast of Newsies on Broadway had to be like 90% gay at least.

Elsa is gay.

Give her a damned girlfriend for fuck sakes and hopefully she will stop all this bullshit with the weather!

I want a super handsome prince for Elsa. Eye candy. Hotter than even Hans and with an even more beautiful voice. Hard to find a voice, but should be easy to make him super hot.

Here's a video that offers a few characters, some of which you may or may not agree with:

Elsa needs a girlfriend.

And not Santiago doing his Tootsie drag voice.

Chip and Dale were two bicurious chipmunks openly sharing a tree house. Shameful.

R63, Elsa needs a super hot prince whom we can jerk it to.

Erik von Detten played like five minor/obscure roles for Disney and almost all of them were gay-coded imo.

He was Sid Philips (TOY STORY), Andy Brinker (BRINK!), Lawson (RECESS!), Danny (ESCAPE TO WITCH MTN.), Josh Bryant (THE PRINCESS DIARIES), that "sensitive" boy Andrew in ODD MAN OUT for ABC Family, and voiced one of the minor Gods in the HERCULES animated series..

Outside of the House of Mouse he also played Nicholas Alamain in DOOL and the original NIGHT SINS.

Chip and Dale weren't bicurious, R64, they were both desperate bottoms!

Fuck off R65 -- why can't you jerk off to Hans already?

Chip & Dale were brothers.

Erik von Detten was a dreamboat.
