Precisely! There is no huge demand...it's Twitter being Twitter. So, instead of ignoring it people who can't wait to get angry about whatever the perceived political opposition does each day decide to go all in declaring it unacceptable.

America has really turned into a country of fricking whiners, regardless of what side of the aisle you reside.

False.

I was shocked that there were no albinos. They should have a voice. Also, more characters with colitis or chronic shits. These people are left out of fair representation.

I'd like to know how "huge" that demand really is.


Same population that gun-control organizations say they represent.




Just look at all this groundswell of suport.

Exactly. LGBT make up what... being generous... 8% of the population?

Lets say you have 100 items to sell to 100 prospective customers. Changing one minor part pleases 8 of them, 10 buy it anyway and 82 of them tell you to frick off. Not changing that minor part pleases 82 of them, 10 buy it anyway and 8 tell you to frick off.

As a company trying to make money.... which do you choose?

This is why Cap is still straight and Elsa shouldn't be bumping uglies with a chick



I'd guess that out of the 8 LGBT, 4-6 would still buy it because it's not like there is an anti-gay agenda in the product. I mean Captain American didn't say "Merca, and screw the figs"

How fricking awful.



because we have redefined "huge demand" to mean "vociferous demands of an activist fraction of the less-than-2% of Americans who want to force people (starting at birth) to accept them as mainstream."

I'm willing to bet there's a larger demand for no LGBT characters in Disney movies.

I wouldn't mind seeing Scarlett Jo bumping tacos with Olsen.

Other than that... Nah

No there is not.

Uh maybe it's because gay people are a very very small minority in this world and there's not enough of them to justify building the supply.

Heterosexual people are still the biggest and only economy there is. Disney isn't going to make 400 million dollar movies just to appease less than 3% of the population.

It's so funny how these groups "demand" more gays, actors of color, etc., as if it's not feasible to produce films with their own castin and storylines. They want everyone else to do the work and put up the money.
