People are gay and people are, this is a fact. Tolerance is vital, acceptance is not. And yet, gay people parade themselves all June celebrating their sexuality, heterosexuals do not have a month dedicated to showcasing their lifestyle. So why is it important for a company that produces child-friendly content to not just show, but promote gayness within their movies?

As Disney apparently proceeds to promote what some critics deride as its "not-at-all-secret gay agenda," the company's next animated feature film, "Strange World," will reportedly include its first openly gay teenage romance.

Matthieu Saghezchi, a production designer for animation, tweeted about screening a snippet of the new film, which was recently shown at the Annecy 2022 International Animation Film Festival in southeast France.

"Just saw the very first glimpse into #Disney’s #StrangeWorld at the #Annecy2022 festival – it features the first openly gay teen romance in a Disney feature!!! ... #RepresentationMatters," Saghezchi wrote.

"The scene describes the son being very shy in front of his boy crush, and his dad comes in and says 'so nice to meet you! my son talks about you all the time' and further embarrasses his son ... very cute," he continued.

According to WDW News Today, Jaboukie Young-White will voice the teenage Ethan, who flirted with a boy named Diazo in one of the three sequences shown at the festival.

Further starring in the film will be Dennis Quaid as Ethan’s grandfather Jaeger Clade, Jake Gyllenhaal as his son Searcher and Gabrielle Union as Ethan’s mom and Searcher’s wife Meridian. Lucy Liu will be Callisto Mal, who is the director of the film’s magical setting of Avalonea.

The news regarding "Strange World" follows the release earlier this month of the Disney/Pixar feature film "Lightyear," which included a same-sex kiss between two female animated characters. It has reportedly been banned in 14 countries.

Throughout a recent company meeting about addressing Florida's recently adopted Parental Rights in Education Act, Disney Executive Producer Latoya Raveneau argued to be regularly "adding queerness" to the company's children's programming.

"Our leadership over there has been so welcoming to my not-at-all-secret gay agenda," Raveneau announced. "I don't have to be afraid to have these two characters kiss. Wherever I could, just basically adding queerness. No one would stop me, and no one was trying to stop me."
