Do you think cartoons should incorporate LGBT into their story lines?

Question

Feel free to comment

Answer

Also: if you genuinely believe lgbt people shouldn’t be included in cartoons then guess what? You’re homophobic

Answer

Not in a pandering way. But yes, LGBT+ characters and storylines should be incorporated. 
Just like POC, people with disabilities and people of different religions.

Answer

No anonymous posts allowed.
This was already discussed today.

Answer

Sure. If they can incorporate LGBT+ storylines into programming in a way that make sense, and aren’t offensive or pandering why not?

Answer

I don’t see why not 🤷🏻‍♀️ 
If kids seeing a hetero couple kiss/show affection/be married and it’s not “inappropriate” or “confusing” for them, and kids can see single parents on TV and that’s ok, then seeing same sex couples doing the same thing shouldn’t be inappropriate or confusing either. 
Why not show them that there are many different types of families out there, and it’s all normal and ok?

Answer

ALL lgbt people want is to be represented and recognised. We want lgbt kids to see themselves in the media, for them to feel normal and included. So yes, all shows should be inclusive

Answer

If they want, anon 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

No anonymous posts are allowed in this room, so you should take it off anon. Also there's a pretty similar post, 2 posts down about how Alabama banned an episode of Arthur with a gay wedding. So idk of these posts would be too similar.
Anyways, the answer is yes. And if someone doesn't like it, they can change the channel, rather than ban it.

Answer

Absolutely I don’t see how that’s hurting anybody. When I watched cartoons as a child there was no LGBT+ characters or anything on TV come to think of it I never even knew another LGBT+ member until I was already out of the closet & guess what ? I’m bisexual it has nothing to do with what you watch or what’s around you IMO. Being in the LGBT+ community isn’t something anyone should feel ashamed of we should be acknowledged like everyone else TV included.

Answer

They already do.
