Disney animator: 'Gay' characters only matter of time (Once they find the right kind of story)
WND ^ | March 29, 2011 | Bob Unruh

It's only a matter of time and circumstance before Disney movies feature homosexual characters or "families," according to one of the company's animators.

In a little-noticed story by the Australian news website News.com.au, animator Andreas Deja, who reported working on the Disney films "Beauty and the Beast," "Aladdin" and "The Lion King," said the company is open to the concept of homosexual entertainment.

"Is there ever going to be a family that has two dads or two mums? Time will tell," he said. "I think once they find the right kind of story with that kind of concept, they will do it.

"It has to be the right kind of story and you have to find that first," said Deja, according to News.com.au.

Disney, which already allows various "gay days" and other such events at its theme parks, is a "gay-friendly" company, Deja said. The report cited "Lion King" contributor Elton John as well as the late Howard Ashman, who worked on the lyrics to "The Little Mermaid."

Deja said that the Disney characters already come from a wide range of backgrounds – such as Cinderella's step-family, Aladdin's street life and Bambi's motherless childhood.

He tried to be reassuring, however, in saying, "We won't all of a sudden make R-rated films."

As the article states, the Disney corporation has long been ‘gay friendly’ and I’m sure they’ll be making a homosexual-centered movie in the near future or at least a film (probably animated) with a benign homosexual ‘hero’. Just what kids need. The homo lobby never stops and they’ve been distressingly successful in turning public opinion from viewing homosexual behavior as perverse and disreputable into homosexual behavior and those who practice it (’gays’) being legally protected at a level not available to heterosexuals. In the media, homosexuality is constantly celebrated and embraced. Politicians avoid criticizing homosexuals. Although most people still don’t approve of the homosexual ‘lifestyle’, few Americans dare to state that reservation in public for fear of being dismissed as ‘homophobic’, ‘bigoted’ and ‘a hater’, as if moral disapproval of a perverse, unhealthy behavior is somehow hateful, because the media says so. This 180° turnaround in public opinion took less than 40 years to accomplish. So, a Disney movie with homosexuals as the featured characters is, sadly, quite imaginable, today.

The Bil Mahear story would be one such opportunity.

He rapes little children, males.

How come everytime I see a sensational headline posted on FR from WND, it never comes to pass? Seriously, I am constantly seeing articles from them here and they are very sensationalized and then nothing ever follows.

As far as gay-days, Disneyland does not sanction these events. Are we suggesting they somehow tell groups of paying customers that they are not allowed to go into the park? I in NO WAY like that these days occur at the Disney parks, but what are they supposed to do with these groups?

I am also NOT saying that I agree or like the direction I see Disney going and may break ties with them if things continue to spiral downward.

I think many Disney movies have gay characters, and that’s part of the Disney charm.

However, if Disney makes any homosexual or sodomite characters, I’ll have a problem.

And to make matters worse, once the Gay Disney film is released, parents and children will be forced by gunpoint to watch the Gay Disney film.

I swear I saw Jiminy Cricket walk into a gay bar once.

Also, did you notice how cozy all those dwarfs were, living together in that tiny cottage? And when beautiful Snow White showed up, they revered her but never tried anything! I’m just sayin’.

Disney characters never have two living parents of any gender.

Well to be fair, SNL's gay cartoon characters were marketed to a mature audience, not to kids. And they are hilarious.

Disney is blatantly going after the kids, and that is NOT funny.

[Between the lines..] "But we'll get to those ASAP!"

There's no limit of depravity with leftists and social engineers.

In the old days a lot of the younger cartoon characters lived with aunts or uncles rather than with parents--Nancy with Aunt Fritzi, Huey, Dewey and Louie with Unca Donald, etc. Mickey Mouse had a nephew or two.

I don't know if the idea was that the adult figure would be more interesting if dating (Mickey & Minnie) rather than tied down in a marriage, or it was prudery (so that the younger characters' very existence would not imply that the older characters had engaged in any sexual activity).

Even when I was a little kid I though Disney characters were gay.

Looney tunes always ruled!

Aunt Fritzi is NOT a lesbo.

She may have experimented a couple of times in college. But she is not gay.
