Frozen 2 plot rumors: Twitter users demanding Disney turn Elsa into a lesbian princess
The LGBT community appears to be growing bolder and bolder, and now they're even demanding that Disney's beloved ice princess Elsa from "Frozen" be turned into a lesbian.
The idea stemmed from a tweet made by 17-year-old activist Alexis Isabel (@lexi4prez) last Saturday. She said, "I hope Disney makes Elsa a lesbian princess. Imagine how iconic that would be." She then added the hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend.
Disney is now working on "Frozen 2," and some fans thought that it would be the perfect time for Elsa of Arendelle to fall in love with a woman. Thousands of people tweeted using the hashtag and expressed their agreement to place Elsa in a homosexual relationship.
"Because little girls watching should know you can be a princess and love another princess," a Twitter user commented.
Another added: "Queer relationships are not any more sexual or extreme or anything more than a non-queer relationship."
Someone even suggested that Elsa should hook up with Princess Leia from "Star Wars."
Some said they already thought Elsa was gay to begin with.
Then, quoting the "Love Is An Open Door" song from "Frozen," one fan said, "Love is an open door. That door should be open to everyone, not just straight people."
Anticipating that there will be Christian groups that will oppose the requests to #GiveElsaAGirlfriend, some netizens said it would be good for queer kids to have a positive role model to look up to. "Disney, you have no idea how many little girls (and all little kids) you could help accept and love themselves [by giving Elsa a girlfriend]," a fan pleaded.
"Making a kid's movie with a queer character won't make your kids gay. [It] will teach them that love comes in many forms," another one wrote.
As for Elsa's younger sister Anna, she has already fallen in love twice in the first film. She initially gave her heart out to Prince Hans, only to be deceived by him. She then fell for her good friend Kristoff. Fans are anticipating that the two will tie the knot in the Disney sequel.
