Hiding in plain sight

You won’t believe how many gay Disney characters you’ve missed over the last 80 years

We now live in the age of the “exclusively gay moment,” which if we’re being honest, really sounds like it begs the reply, “sounds like my date last night,” “that’s what he said,” or at the very least, “how exclusive?”

And yet here we are, with films like Power Rangers and Disney’s Beauty and the Beast proving there is no gay reference too small to cause Malaysia to bust a steam valve.

Or…are there?

According to one very fake Disney animation veteran, there have been gay characters popping up in animated classics all the way back to Snow White in 1937.

We just… never… saw it…
