Disney Channel is making history with its first gay coming-out story
October 26, 2017 at 2:27 pm
Quote:Disney Channel’s “Andi Mack” is making history with the network’s first story line about a gay character coming out.
Disney has introduced gay characters before — “Beauty and the Beast” made headlines earlier this year for featuring an openly gay LeFou, and Disney XD’s animated series “Star vs. the Forces of Evil” made history in its second season with Disney’s first same-sex kiss. Other Disney franchises, such as “High School Musical,” have alluded to gay characters. But “Andi Mack,” which became a network hit after its April debut, is the first Disney franchise to center a story line around a major character coming out as gay.

The cons will be up in arms in faux moral outrage again.
Ho-hum!
Good for Disney, though.

Disney constantly breaks ground, an honestly makes good entertainment (well, I'm not fond of their TV shows so much, but lots of teens love them), yet so many people hate Disney, I don't get it.

Even as an adult, I'm still a huge Disney fan. I like some of their television shows. To be honest, though, I never heard of this one until today.

I knew it! Disney are promoting the homosexual agenda! They're sure to depict gays as 'just like anyone else'. The fiends.

Oh please. Gay Disney has been around since Peter Pan. Watch again.

The shrieking should be ear-splittingly entertaining!

Just disappointed it's not Riley and Maya. It will always be in my head canon though.
