All The LGBTQA+ Content In 'Frozen 2' You Might Have Missed

Frozen 2 is now in theaters, delighting audiences with a fresh adventure, new songs, endearing characters, and the reunion of Kristen Bell, Jonathan Groff, Josh Gad, and Idina Menzel. On all these points, Disney is thrilling fans of Anna and Elsa. But did the studio dare provide on the demand that’s been lighting up social media for years? Did Disney give Elsa a girlfriend?

It turns out that question isn’t an easy yes or no. So let’s begin with how the “Give Elsa A Girlfriend” campaign began.

SPOILERS BELOW FOR FROZEN 2!!!!

In the spring of 2016, Frozen 2 was in the works when one fan offered Disney a suggestion on Twitter:

Frozen gave Anna her “prince” in the form of a rugged but loving Kristoff. Why not possess Frozen 2 present Elsa a princess to contribute her life, her throne, and her heart? The idea soon gathered steam and the hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend caught on, spurring a petition as well as plenty of fan art of a proposed significant other for the ice queen, like a princess of color with fire powers!

But why now and why Elsa?

Well, Disney had been dinged by GLAAD for

What Disney’s Frozen can teach you about LGBT people—and their families.

Note: I originally published this piece when Frozen was mark new in theaters, and it rapidly became one of my most popular posts of all time. Apparently it resonated with a lot of people!

There are a lot of things to like about Disney’s new motion picture Frozen:

  • Idina Menzel. ‘Nuff said.
  • There are two strong female protagonists, neither of which is a damsel in distress.
  • The main conflict isn’t between a “hero” and a “villain.” It’s between two likable, feeling characters, each of whom is doing what she thinks is right based on her possess experience. This is how conflicts operate in real existence, and it’s a much healthier way to see the world than the typical good-guys-vs.-bad-guys narrative.
  • It’s genuinely funny, with some quirky Arrested Development references thrown in for good measure.
  • The film plays with some typical princess-movie tropes and dares to call them into question. Notably, when a princess character falls instantly in love with a dashing prince, other characters scrutinize her judgment, reminding her that in the real nature, it takes period to really acquire to know

    Frozen 3 Theory: Elsa’s Love Interest Has Already Been Introduced

    Summary

    • Honeymaren could be Elsa's potential passion interest in Frozen 3, potentially confirming Elsa is same-sex attracted.
    • Elsa and Honeymaren share a connection based on their Northuldra heritage and love for nature.
    • Disney's LGBTQ+ representation has been poor in the past, and it needs to handle Elsa's potential romance with Honeymaren properly.

    Elsa's sexuality hasn’t been determined yet within the Frozen franchise, but one theory suggests that Elsa's potential love interest could lead to the confirmation that Elsa is gay in Frozen 3. Honeymaren, a member of the Northuldra tribe who was trapped in the Enchanted Forest by the curse, could send back for Frozen 3 as Elsa’s girlfriend based on the two characters' joint chemistry. Ever since Frozen debuted, the LGBTQ+ community has identified with Elsa’s story arc, since her character has personal goals as a Disney princess that extend beyond finding a prince, doesn

    So, how ga​y is Disney’s Frozen?

    I’m not surprised that it’s such a huge hit. I am a little surprised at the sustained effort of Christian fans to spin Frozen as some sort of Christian allegory (more on this in an upcoming post).

    For now, though, I wish to address something I noted in passing in my review: the question of gay-culture themes in Frozen.

    In my review I mentioned this issue (also noted in positive reviews by other critics) largely to dismiss it as a point of interest — not that I wasn’t aware of the themes in question, so much as that I didn’t think they warranted getting upset over. However, a point I overlooked earlier has just been brought to my attention that I think does warrant mention.

    First, let’s get the broad themes out on the table.

    • With her ice powers, Elsa is notably different from other people. “Born this way or cursed?” asks the troll king, and her parents confirm that she was born that way.
    • Nevertheless, her difference is an occasion of fear and secrecy. Misguidedly, her parents teach her to “conceal it, don’t feel it.” This repression of her factual nature
