A Disney Channel kids cartoon just aired a gay kiss – and no one batted an eye
By Will Stroude
A Disney Channel cartoon has aired a subtle but significant moment of same-sex affection.
An episode in the third season of Star vs. The Forces of Evil featured a gay couple kissing alongside others, in a victory of LGBT representation in children’s media.
The episode saw the show’s main character, Star, left lovesick at a concert when her best friend Marco shares a dance and kiss with his crush Jackie instead of her.
