I've considered the possibility that the quick marriage scene in the cartoon was more of a gag, since I've seen that in other cartoons, but the two characters are clearly infatuated with each other for the long term- a fact that is demonstrated in several other ways over the course of the cartoon and games- that one can't help but face the music. The psychotic hyperkinetic rabbity thing and the dog are unquestionably some sort of life partners.

it’s saddening that this is what we’re reduced to. i only saw a few main characters here which is a great start, but apparently in animation men can’t be emotional with other men. the women have to be emotional instead. so there’s barely any representation for us which absolutely sucks! :(

At least that's what I've seen from my experience in the community.

I recently started my own Webtoon comic and my story has plenty of lgbtqia+ characters,so much that it's more like a game to try and find a straight person(For now I've got only three heteros out of 21 character(and there might be more characters to come) And one of the straights is demisexual. I have non-binary and trans characters as well). But as for now there are only two episodes released, 6 in total are ready(so it's easier for me to work on a new ones without any rush) and the quality of a comic is far away from perfect but I'm trying my best^^ I can send you a link if you're interested, dunno if you have any chances to like it though :p

Here’s My theories of why mlm couple or just lgbtq men aren’t shown as often in animation 1. Writers are afraid of stereotyping gay men as more weak, feminine, and emotional then straight men or are worried of fetishizing them 2. Toxic masculinity 3. Because to homophobes their seen as more “sexual” and “predatory” than lesbians 4. gay male characters and lgbtq characters in general regardless of the sexuality and gender, even if well written are more criticized then cisgender straight characters In conclusion: we need to ditch what cishet conservatives think of lgbt people and let lgbtq creator write the stories they want to tell as long as the creator isn’t a problematic person Queer People come in different forms of personality, gender expression, relationships, sizes and places around the world (including intersectionality) and deserve to be portrayed in media just as long as the characters don’t speak for everyone and are written beyond stereotype (or isn’t stereotypical presenting but are just as complex) and aren’t written to be the but of the joke

@@suspiciousstar7547 I was gonna comment that, but yeah, I wrote a whole thing on them in the last video’s comments that you responded to and I’m sad that they still didn’t make it in here, especially since they’re explicitly queer and romantic in their relationship on screen unlike a lot of representation on here :( they’re a really special couple that I hoped would get more awareness for how ahead of their time they’ve been for MLM/gay rep in cartoons, even for Cartoon Network. There’s even fairly accessible resources to get footage of them from, such as KZbin compilations and pirating websites. This is a big video, and for one person I’m sure it was a lot to work on, but I just really hoped my comment would have prevented them from going under the radar is all,, it’s not very serious though! It’s just a video and I still enjoyed it nevertheless :]

[@suspiciousstar7547]

@@starscrambled That's one thing I love about that show. Master Frown and Brock's whole character isn't stereotypical or just them being "gay". Their identities are just a beautiful part of them, like every part of a person. It's a trait, not a personality which why I felt their representation was so iconic to me. And you are 100% right on them being ahead of their time :) Also, the two main ships in the show Foxodile and Frock are both represented wonderfully. Although one is straight and one is gay, the writers do a fantastic job on both of them. What kind of relationship they have (het or gay) doesn't affect it in any way. Their genders don't get in the way on which one is better because both of them are unique in their own way. No stereotypes, no lack of originality, just pure cuteness. Not only just them, they also showed a lesbian couple of space rockets, Bim Bom shown on screen kissing a female character and being interested in a boy meaning that she is either bi/pan, and don't get me started on the amount of cross-dressing in the show XDDD. And these were just the things shown on-screen :]. These are not including the headcanons. As a Foxodile and Frock shipper, I approve this message.

[@bulbasaurmoment]

it never clicked in my head that clyde in the loud house had two dads and that luna liked girls, it never seemed bad in any way to me and i never pointed it out ever but looking back at it its so sweet that i never saw lgbt+ characters as bad :) especially in the fact that i am unlabeled now, my gender feels more neutral, i'm more attracted to women, and my pronouns are they/them

[@notrealyBea]

It would be nice to put the links in the description of the places that the character's sexuality has been confirmed if it hasn't already been confirmed on the show, as some seem more like your headcanons and it would be more informative that way.

[@Chillychu]

i can confirm that none of these are my headcanons, and i prefer not to clog my description with links and sources, unless somebody asks about the source for a certain character, which i then give them the source in a seperate comment. if you object to a character being on this list, please comment or do your own research

[@doagii2649]

the biggest reason i think it’s rather rare to see specifically gay men, whether it be cis or trans, is because people view gay men as the more “sexual” type yk… like everything about being a gay man is just sex sex sex when it’s really not… i’m a gay guy and feel so underrepresented in media and it’s AMAZING that a bunch of others in our community is getting representation too but yk… if gay men got more representation based around just love and respect rather than “i wanna bang with that male character because i’m gay” in adult shows then it’d 100% help with homophobia or something…

We really need to stop championing Voltron for it’s gay rep because it’s fucking terrible, and giving the creators what they wanted in the first place is a bad idea which will lead to them creating more bad lgbt rep.

[@recycledideas4261]

@@Riaah_love If you don’t mind, can you explain what “Bury your gays” mean?

[@Riaah_love]

@@recycledideas4261 Bury your gays is a trope used commonly amongst homophobic writers ( and before you ask, yes the creators of Voltron were extremely homophobic and constantly abused their lgbt+ staff ) in which creators kill off their gay characters and only them simply because they’re gay. It’s like when the black character always dies in a horror movie, they’re implying that marginalized people aren’t allowed to have happy endings but pretending to be diverse.

[@Sparkletta]

@@Sp3ctralI yeah, it’s a stereotype I’m not too fond of either. Like, yeah, gay ‘flamboyant’ or effeminate men exist, of course, but a man being feminine does not immediately equate gayness. Although tbh most of the guys in this video aren’t like that.

[@Sp3ctralI]

@@Sparkletta which I’m happy about, in some other video, I found a comment talking about how, it’s really cool to see characters who just act like average people, and just so happen to be gay, not some crazy over the top characters.
