A reader takes the thread in another direction:
What I’m really wondering is when (or whether) we’ll have an animated Disney film with two Prince Charmings. If as a young child I had ever been shown that such a relationship was even thinkable, let alone gloried in Disney-style apotheosis, it could easily have set the groundwork for my teenage decade to be a “normal” one of healthy self-discovery instead of one filled with angst, duplicity and shame. Sometimes I have to explain to people why I didn’t come out much earlier, since neither I nor my family was religious, and the way I usually express it is: it’s not so much people disapproved, it mostly just never occurred to anyone as a serious possibility.
