Disney Channel to feature its 1st coming-out story, on 'Andi Mack'
ABC News ^ | 10/26/2017 | George Constantino

The season 2 premiere of Disney Channel's coming-of-age series "Andi Mack," starring Peyton Elizabeth Lee, will feature a first for the channel when Joshua Rush's character, Cyrus, discovers he has feelings for a male classmate, played by Asher Angel.

Ultimately, Cyrus comes out as gay to one of his best friends, Buffy, played by Sofia Wylie.

Her response, according to Disney, "makes for positive role models for kids and adult viewers."

"'Andi Mack' is a story about tweens figuring out who they are," Disney Channel said in a statement on Tuesday. "Everyone involved in the show takes great care in ensuring that it's appropriate for all audiences and sends a powerful message about inclusion and respect for humanity."

Though the network has depicted same-sex relationships in other shows, this is the first time Disney Channel has presented a storyline depicting a character's journey to self-acceptance as a gay person.

Disney said child development experts consulted on the episode, which was screened in advance for organizations such as Common Sense Media, GLAAD and PFLAG.

Outstanding! Now America's kiddies can get their “introduction” to rectal syphilis at age 6 instead of first reading about at 20 in some article about public health.

Child experts my ass. They’re all fags and sick child molesters with a fancy title.

Horatio has been replaced with Felatio.

Since when has Disney anything real to say about sex?

At this rate Warner Brothers will be sure to overtake a Disney that has become Dizzy-knee.

Up with Elmer Fudd and the Wabbit!

I don’t have cable, so I can still just shove all my socks in the drawer and match them in the morning when I’m putting them on.

Or, I could be like my Grandpa. He lived as a widower for probably 30 years. I hear had had a couple hundred pair of socks and just washed them all twice a year.

I used to have to go to Democratic Underground to read these kind of trash stories.

Perverts, Deviates, Degenerates, Pedophiles, just the group you would want to screen a kids movie.

No more toleration.

Let them know we won’t spend any time watching or buying their stuff.

Enough is Enough!

Poor Walt. I bet he is spinning in his grave.

This is the very last scene of "Fantasia." It is an abbey of nuns walking two by two
holding candles.

It followed this scene where Lucifer hears Ave Maria being sung by the nuns
and he skulks back to hell along with all the other hell creatures.

Today's Disney does not hold a candle to what Walt did in his day.

Bull$hit. It’s about convincing as many kids as possible to go over to the unnatural side, and they know it.

“discovers he has feelings for a male classmate, played by Asher Angel”

How convenient that he discovers these feelings, then decides to tell everyone all about them and become a proud gay boy, all within an easily digestible 30 minute timeline!

I guess they will have to save the part where he develops a drug habit, contracts STDs and contemplates suicide for the 2-parter.

Warner Brothers is just as deep in it as Disney.
