I don't have kids. My point about the sexuality, though, was that parents already have to have that conversation with kids about straight couples. Broadening the talk to say that anyone can fall in love with anyone else doesn't make the conversation more difficult.

And, as you rightly pointed out, Disney movies should not be gay-themed. They shouldn't have sexual themes at all, but that doesn't mean you can't have gay characters just being there. They already have straight characters falling in love, but they're not movies about heterosexuality.
