Updated on June 28th, 2021 by Kristen Palamara: In recent years, Disney has been attempting to have more LGBTQ+ representation in their movies and shows, and although there are some notable attempts and fleeting moments, Disney still falters overall in this area. Hopefully, in the future, there will be more, and better, representation from Disney. Unfortunately, not every aspect of the LGBTQ+ community has been represented due to a lack of characters within the Disney canon, and some representation has fallen flat.
The LGBTQ+ community has become more represented in media in recent years and Disney is just one of many companies hopping aboard that train as well. It's happened over and over, a man and woman falling in love, but Disney has started to change that, particularly the purely heterosexual aspect. When fans think of Disney movies and the Disney television channel, they may think of a tale as old as time in which a princess marries a prince, and then they live happily ever after.
