Why Are There No Gay Characters in Kid's Films? || Rowan Ellis

Princess Hipster Art: http://viria13.deviantart.c...

So yeah, this is me talking about why LGBT people are missing from representation in children's film/TV, illustrating the double standards with a lot of straight kissing. Like... a lot of it.

Shows/Films with some form of representation mentioned:

Steven Universe
Doctor Who
Adventure Time
Paranorman
How To Train Your Dragon 2
Legend of Korra (Korrasami)
Braceface
Good Luck Charlie
Hey Arnold
