Pixar Says Gay

On March 9, 2022, amidst national discussion over Florida's
"Don't Say Gay" legislation, the LGBTQIA+ Employees of Pixar and
their allies released a statement to Disney leadership
challenging several claims that Disney is a company with a
history of supporting LGBTQIA+ people. Among those claims was the
massive assertion that "nearly every moment of overtly gay
affection is cut [from Pixar' films] at Disney’s behest."


We just wanted to talk about Pixar's statement, reflect on how it
provides new perspective to some of our own thoughts on the lack
of strong queer representation in Pixar's canon, and express hope
for the impact on queer representation it could have.
