Everytime. The Lumity scene hits me right in the feels, EVERYTIME.
It’s my fav cartoon couple
It just feels so right!
Me too love Lumity so much I gay hiiiii🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🌸🌸🤗
YEAH
@@maxmania1165 yeah it's not just a good wlw couple, but a good couple in general
fun fact: Korra isn’t the only bisexual avatar - Avatar Kyoshi is also canonically bisexual, and was in love with a man and a woman in the kyoshi novels!! i highly recommend reading them if you want amazing wlw representation, or if you just love Avatar!!
I love both lgbt representation and avatar lol
Wait how did I not know this whattttttt
Wait what man was Kyoshi in love with? I only remember Rangi
@@peach_tea0 it’s heavily hinted at that she was in love with yun! they did almost kiss in that scene with the fire lillies :)))
@@eepfromthecroods5743 Huh. I'll have to reread it then because I barely remember that part lol
"Did they hurt you?"
"Who cares?"
"I do."
this line is SO CUTE
I love it too, this is why those two are so adorable.
I'm the 666th like, im a bit worried
@@luciamarchetti323 Oh my.😨
I can see myself saying both sides of that conversation.😅
Yes.
I'm not even LGBTQ+ oriented but all this representation MAKES ME SO SO SO HAPPY
Same, I'm just a straight ally but the thought of someone from the LGBT community getting excited over this is so wholesome
Thank you both for being allies 😄
@@Star-vu8xo same here, lumity scenes from toh and lander scenes from tmf (a gacha series) make me so happy
Hooray 🎇🎉

ik that this is just wlw but does anyone else find it weird that mlm is weirdly uncommon in cartoons unless it's just 2 dads who are only there for like 2 episodes
It's harder to write MLM without it feeling weird, I guess
I agree, I really want more mlm representation. It feels like there's still a stigma around it
That's because society is not as fond of mlm couples as wlw couples, since most of the media is created by men I guess they are more comfortable writing same gender couples of the opposite sex, just like with straight women and yaoi
@@spacekitty8926 That's what I mean though. I want more rep because it needs to be normalized so we can move toward society not feeling uncomfortable about it
There's Benson and that other guy in Kipo, but yeah I haven't noticed much mlm rep in cartoons
You forgot Harley and Ivy, but it was a really nice list :)
Yas finally who watch Harley Quinn show
The best
YES
It's not for kids
@@athena3268 but it still a cartoon
6:18
*"We're about to die and I've never been kissed!"*
*"Me neither."*
**Proceeds to kiss**
This is such a mood lol
lmaooo- with no context it was hilarious 😂✨
what show is that from ??
@@dirtywhitesneakers idk, but i like ur pfp, i literally just watched a yt video with that scene in it like 30 seconds ago-
@@dirtywhitesneakers It's from Trollhunters, hope this helps!😄
What is the show / movie ?
the fact that you can make a video out of this now and that i can think of quite a few not included...makes me fuckin emotional bro
SO TRUE, ITS PRETTY RARE TO SEE HOMOSEXUAL RELATION SHIPS BECAUSE OF HOMOPOBIA IN SHOWSSSS
yeah as a bisexual 17 year old girl this is great
when i saw the title i automatically thought "are there enough couples to make a video?", i'm just so happy it's possible ❤❤❤
I KNOWWWW
IKR AS A PANSEXUAL IM SO HAPPY
7:39 I like the fact that Eda encourages Luz to ask out Amity
It makes sense since Eda is Bi herself! Though you probably knew that lol.
@@gr1m_XP Back when I posted this comment, I really didn't know Eda was also Bisexual 😅
why do i think this baby right here is luz at 4:28

@@katthekitkatbar ikr... I was literally in love with Raven Queen I MISS THE SHOWWWW
LUMITY AND CATRADORA JUST MAKES ME FILL WITH BUTTERFLIES EVERYTIME
For me, the ones who knew best how to explore it, despite being very different and put their approach in their own way. It was She-ra with Catradora and TOH with Lumity. These two are the best for me
Catradora is a toxic abusive relationship. Pls look clearly at the physical, emotional, and mental abuse catra afflicts onto adora through out the show. A better wlw ship would be adora and glimmer.
Catra is an abuser. And I do not support the glammerization of abusers
@@sahara3607 first of all that was 6 months ago, i don’t think the same anymore i don’t like shera anymore and
@@lumityedits5947 I didnt even notice how long it was ago mb
ikkk even after like the millionth time watching the scenes 😭😭
2:33 the whole fandom: *WE ALL SUPPORT YOU*
PLSS
Hellz yeaah
What show is that?
@@chloebutterfly4379 its called ok ko
@I Hate LGBTQ+, Furries, Femboys of course,I’m not surprised it’s the anime person❤️
that Catradora scene gives me butterflies and makes me hold my breath every time
me too
I literally cry every time I watch it
Only thing is, Catra is kinda :/
In the lumity scene, when it's a whole scene just of their hand-holding you can see a hidden bi flag in the backround, literally the entire backround!
omg , i just realized that !
THE TREES I-
omg its true
Omfg never realized
It was the cutest part!!!
God as a kid I was so obsessed with all of the goth girls from the cartoons I watched as a kid, and not knowing why I liked them so much
Years later I realized I wasn’t straight
🏳️🌈👍
Oh god that was me as well.
We stan goth girlies in this household
same lmao
Me too… lol
Catradora. Yes. I have watched that show more times than I can count. The story was amazing, the messages were great, the characters were developed and every redemption (besides shadow weaver and I guess glimmer) were perfect and well thought out. That show made me so dang happy, especially when Nate confirmed that every character in the ENTIRE franchise was LGBTQIAP+. I also loved the art style and how the score made you feel all the feels. The video essays I watched were great. I am so glad we got a show like this, and I am sorta sad Amazon is making a live action version. This one was perfect, and I wouldn’t change it for the world!
And now onto Lumity, because this wasn’t already long enough.
Lumity is brilliant. The entire show is, really. It’s full of great story arcs, fun, relatable characters, plot twists that have you in the edge of your seat, and positive LGBTQIAP+ representation. I can’t praise this show enough. Luz was an awesome character, and so was Amity. The fact they literally started dating made my heart flutter. I can’t stop thinking about them anytime I hear the Lumity motif. They were adorable, and I am so sad their spot in the sun was so short-lived. Since Disney decided to up and cancel Owl House, I’ve just been watching all kinds of videos about Owl House, Lumity, and just gay stuff to take my mind off the sad reality we won’t get to see them thrive. This show helped me so much, and gave me something to look forward to in this dark time.
Thank you to Dana Terrace, Nate Stevenson, and everyone involved in the making of these two amazing shows! I hope you all find happiness and peace in the fact you helped so many people who felt unrepresented in media feel included. You guys are awesome, and thank you!
edit :: to everyone commenting about how catradora sucks and is a toxic relationship, I agree somewhat. Yes, Catra was toxic at some points, and yes, she ended up perpetuating Shadow Weaver's cycle of abuse, but unlike Shadow Weaver, she feels a lot of remorse for her actions and tries her hardest to make it up to Adora and everyone else she hurt. And their relationship, I don't think, was toxic, because, for most of the show, they have no relationship. They go their separate ways and they fight, like enemies. Honestly, I'm pretty tired right now and I don't feel like writing a whole essay, so I would suggest just checking out Five By Five Takes. They have a video on Catradora, Catra and her abuse (along with why she is a phenomenal character) and just a bunch of She-Ra video essays that are pretty awesome. They say everything I want to say and more.
edit2 :: The creator of the show now goes by 'Nate' so I edited that a bit ago. Nate confirmed that everyone is gay. Creator said gay rights.
I *KNOW*
IKR
That was probably the best handled of the lot. It was obviously intended from the beginning, and took its time developing in an organic way that wasn’t treated like a dirty secret they threw out last minute.
Dragon Prince was great about that, too.., just treated it as part of life in that world.
I LOVE THAT SHOW. SO FRICKING MUCH. IF THAT SHOW WAS A PERSON I'D MARRY THEM.
I love every word you just said ❤
4:16 Tabitha and Courtney kissing is honestly the most precious thing I've seen come out of Craig of the Creek and I am so thankful to Cartoon Network for giving us them! 💗
What episode was that? I haven't seen it on TV before.
I inwardly squealed when I saw them kiss. In the words of a very………wise bird tube: “They’re adorable, and deserve all the happiness.”
6:19 THAT WAS SO RANDOM AND I LOVE IT
YEA LITERALLY WHAT WAS THAT
@@silvermoon8184 So, a comet was hurling to earth, the protective measures had failed, everyone was waiting for the impact and spitting out wishes and regrets.
They were safe in the end and if l remember correctly, these two were seen in the background dating from time to time.
The series is "3 Below" by DreamWorks. A spin-off from "Trollhunters". It's on Netflix. Not on the level of its original series, but worth a watch.
BRO I WAS SO SHOOKETH 💀
IKR
Thanks for this. It’s so easy to focus on negativity and hatred….it’s nice to be reminded that progress is actually happening.
I remember owning so many marceline merch when I was younger, technically not realizing she was my first ever girl cartoon crush. and then back when the episode came out, i kept repeatedly rewinding the scene when ruby and sapphire would smooch then fuse. now look at me a disaster bisexual
I remember when garnet was revealed and it was before I realized that I liked girls. I cried, but I didn't know why.. But now I do :)
Can’t believe you didn’t add Vaggie and Charlie from Hazbin Hotel. They have a beautiful relationship (from what little we’ve seen) and are incredible characters in their own right
It’s great yes, but I need more. More of them being a couple!
@@Raerofficial yes,
They're so cute
I'm thinking it's probably because all of these are from childrens cartoons which are harder to find representation in
Charlie and vaggie are dating but they don't show it which would be just a girl calling another girl hun which wouldn't be much compared to the other clips in this video but if ep 1 ever releases I'm sure they will show some lumity type stuff
Every time I try and show someone that Owl House scene I forget to explain Hooty before hand
🤣🤣
How does one even explain the mess that is Hooty
Amity is so cute in that clip🥺
The lack of main character mlm ships is so shocking. I’m guessing there’s some weird corporate reason for it. Hopefully we see more in the future :). At least we are getting awesome wlw rep
I think it's because by homophobic standards wlw relations are more tolerated and can be chalked up to "gal pals"
Women are more liked than men and sadly homosexual male characters don't have the best track record as far as representation is concerned. The Gay man stereotype is disappearing and were getting better characters but sadly they still get overshadowed women.
Just seeing two women hook up is hotter to the audience
@@crestmoon8423 Most of these are pretty horny ngl. They make gay men seem like super into sex freaks, so much so that it's a whole genre of anime. It's kinda weird honestly.
Other than that I completely agree about gay men rep being pretty bad or non-existent. The best I can think of is Captain Holt from Brooklyn Nine-Nine, he's pretty good, but I can't think of any in the Western animation industry.
It's because homophobic women tend to target mlm and wlw equally and cishet women tend to be more accepting of LGBTQ+ people then cishet men, while homophobic men tend to target mlm more because they can fethishise wlw (which is still homophobia but they still "give it a pass")
It sucks that many of these were censored on my country, and also frustrating cause we grow up thinking we are forbidden to be who we are, and the violence here is so present. Part of these cartoons I grew up watching as a kid and teenager, I´m 24 yo now, and still watch cartoons and stuff cause I love art, and I´m a art student in a University here in Brazil (although they do not teach very well art techniques, the focus of our professors are books and theory , I like that part but I want to be able to do art, cause my dram was to make comics).
É oq? Censuraram qual?
Ué no Brasil não é tão sensurado assim, só se for algo bem chocante mesmo, mais na maioria desses desenhos foi só beijo ou selinho, e não é censurado isso aqui
@@apenasumcanal8808 poisé
The reason I love Lumity so much is because it just feels so natural. I want a healthy relationship like that 😕✨
I love Cartoon Network and all of its representation.
The fact that everyone in she-ra is at least a little gay makes me so happy
0:25 I like how she just asks directly without any hesitations
What's the show's name? :)
@@lauradecarvalho2308 I think it's 6teen
@@RightBoyKA-POW thanksss
Fun Fact Patty from The Simpsons (Marge's sister) is the first lesbian in Western Animation Television
2:33 I love this scene cuz it’s such an accurate himbo/lesbian interaction
the lumity scene never gets old, it’s just so sweet and adorable! it never fails to make me happy every time i watch it
THEY PUT THE WHOLE LUMITY SCENE.
This scene is like : the animators asked "how cheesy ?" And Dana said "Y E S"
“I haven’t been kissed!”
“Me neither”
*Immediately start kissing*
They propably was curious
let’s just talk about how…..
LUMITY IS JUST SO CUTEEEEE 🥰
YOU CAN'T JUST END WITH LUMITY BRO IM CRYING RN
Edit: ok excuse me, the *172* people that liked this: why. We get it, you're (mostly) sad gay people. smh.
(Also I used "your" instead of "you're", so sincere apologies to anyone who got irked by that.)
Omg
Me, a sad gay person: reads comment
*likes because i feel called out*
@@JW-mk2qq Let's be honest, who is isn't a sad gay person at this point- (yes I'm calling myself out too lmao)
@@idk-just-tea fr 😂- i think you called out literally the whole owl house fandom
@I Hate LGBTQ+, Furries, Femboys I'm confused about why you're confused, please elaborate. (/gen)
1:46
Garnets not a fusion, she's too WLW characters in a trenchcoat
I am straight, straighter than the straightest line, but I tell you guys right now, there is very little in life that makes me grin with the goofiest grin and squeal my little fan girl squeal (I am a man) better than seeing an LGBTQ+ relationship come to fruition
I used to have feelings for a friend, but when she came out as a lesbian and a girl in our class told me she had a thing for my friend, IMMEDIATE response was to be the ultimate wingman, I had to support her, and when they started going out and told me about it I played it off cool, but snuck off to the bathroom where a guy in the stall heard me squeal like a little girl then start shouting “YES YES YES YES YES” before telling me to chill
this comment brings me absolute joy, dude you have no idea how much i appreciate you just by this one comment. have a wonderful day:)
Your a good friend
aww, that's so sweet :))
nice compilation, thanks dude!! *off to rewatch she-ra AGAIN*
So many lesbians in Western Animation Television , I am so proud and happy 🥰. Great video
sapphics* not all characters here are lesbian
@@choerryveslomls while yea some aren’t lesbian they clearly are into girls, you are radiating homophobic vibes though.
@@flamepelt3092 huh how
@@flamepelt3092 As a Bl person, I don't think it's really h0m0phobic to say that not all of these characters are lesbians. They are all wlw, but Korra is Bl, Luz is Bl, and several others.
@@flamepelt3092 it's not homophobic to say that not all women or women alligned people are lesbians. In fact, your statement is more biphobic than anything else.
Wow, I'm 37 and have never watched any of these cartoons. My 6 year old just watches CZcams. I can't believe how much representation there is now a days! My family never talked about homosexuality growing up. But now as a pan woman, who didn't even start discovering her orientation til she was 19, I love this!
👍🏳️🌈
Good for you
I'm kinda sad that I don't see any character from RWBY, I mean There's Blake who is Bisexual, Yang who probably a Lesbian or just Blakesexual lol🤣🤣. Coco who is a Lesbian she came out in RWBY Chibi or in the book Before the Dawn, Also there is Jaune Sister Saphron Cotta-Arc who is in a loving marriage with Terra Cotta-Arc with child Adrian in Volume 6 episodes 7. I Know RWBY is not as known but its a worth a watch. Also you can't forget the Original LGBT Characters Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus from Sailor Moon like Come on there were called Cousins in the English Version because being gay was not right but apparently insists is 😒.
don't forget about ilia !! i'm still crying over her reveal !!
*sad noises*
Blakesexual lmao the way I laughed
luz and amity's scene seriously warms my heart, idk why but witch gorl's reaction and luz's "mhm" makes me so happy awaa
2:53 girl had a full gay panic lol
2:48 i never realized how gay pearl looked
Thanks
You missed Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, they are one of the best canon wlw cartoon couples!!!!
The lumity confession scene always gets me so happy!!!
WOO you really did pick some of the best scenes for this one 💕
The other scenes; casually kiss
Lumity representing some relatable gay panic; 8:50
I'm so happy about Luna liking Sam its too cute! And I also love Clydes dads you can definitely tell they love their son!
2:28 as someone who hasn't seen this show in a while... YES.
6:19 with no context this is SO FUNNY LMAO especially with it cutting off right when they're about to kiss
Propably they were just curious
fr 😂😂
I only just realised how weird the owl house is out of context 😂
I just never fail to get butterflies with the lumity scene :,)
The Ever after High one is too wholesome
If only there were more wlw in good high quality "gl" series and more mlm in cartoons, then it would be so much more balanced
Ok but, WHY ARE THESE KIND OF RELATIONSHIPS SO ADORABLE?!!! I'm gonna cry 😭💜💜💜
I'm straight, but I think animated gay characters and couples are super adorable.
Right
they seem to be very great friends
“AnD tHeY wErE rOoMmAtEs”
Clarence doesn't get enough recognition! It was my first time seeing a wlw married couple actually be a..well a couple! I was so happy :)
5:29 we Stan a bisexual queen
I don’t know what was happening in the clip I think was from Clarence but it was hilarious
(the Tales of Arcadia one too)
Clarence’s friend Jeff (who has two moms) enters a baking competition every year but then his OCD kicks in, destroys the cake and leaves the competition in tears. It’s a good episode I recommended it.
@@lazuruswolf6668 what's the name of the episode?
8:07 when you know someone is asking you out:
2:10 I remember watching that and I thought it was a bff kiss jaja I thought it was totally fine because she was trying to save Apple
That was special person kiss
7:21 WHEN WAS THIS SCENE WHAT HOW DID I MISS THAT
In some contries its blirred bc of dumb honophic rules sl
It's on HBO max js look up adventure time I forgot the full name but it has obsidian in the title or the name for the episode sorry I'm not aa lot of help sorryyyyy
I love all of these couples sm-they all feel so genuine and pure and it’s just so refreshing to see
8:36 did anyone else see “the hand”
Everyone did, and that few more billion deaths to the fandom by the cuteness overload 🥰😆
6:56 when I saw this as a kid I was so outraged bc I thought they were “best friends”
1:05 THE MOUNTAINS ARE LITERALLY THE BISEXUAL FLAG
If these were shown in the early or mid 90’s, they would be “cousins”
7:34
I was wondering when they would add this XD also #LUMITY
Ye #lumitysupremacy
People who have never heard of the owl house are probably gonna want content with that Lumity scene.
I've never watched the show but i totally felt that scene " why is this so scary" my heart jumped watching this scene right now.
Words cannot describe how much this made me smile 🥰
i like how the owl house one with luz and amity is so out of context
I want to thank you.
This video is how I discovered The Owl House.
Now, exactly a year later, this show has become one of my favourites ever.
Without you I would have never watched it.
*Thanks from the bottom of my heart!*
Carta and Adora had me screaming and crying. Luz and Amity had me cheering and squealing. I love them all
I never put the one with Jackie together, but she totally gives off that energy.
I used to be strait, but I loved the LGBTQ stuff, there was just something about it I loved so much. And I also had LGBTQ friends so that's what made me do research on it more. And eventually my dad let me watch she ra, not knowing that it was a gay show and it took away my straitness. Let me tell you I SCREAMED. when Catra and Adora kissed. Now I'm pan and these representations still make me so happy istg
you cant "take away your straightness". your sexuality is something you are born with, you cant just change it whenever, i now feel like you are kind of faking it like evey other 14 year old here. just my vent, bye
@@hecticstudios9801 ohh interesting, I always thought of it like favourite colors, I used to like green, but things change and now I like red.
I'm honestly not sure about sexuality anymore but if it's what I think it is based on research and how I feel, then no I'm not faking it. Now that I think about it though, I've never really cared about the gender, maybe it was just that I never rlly knew nor cared about the lgbtq stuff, and I was used to seeing the girl and boy couples. So maybe I was never really straight? I'm not really sure anymore. But honestly, why would anyone fake it anyway?
@@r31yn people fake it for the "trends" n stuff
@@hecticstudios9801 huh, I thought there were still alot of people who are homophobic or don't respect the LGBTQ+, and some people are faking being part of it as a "trend"?
Kinda ironic if you ask me.
by the way it’s straight not strait
7:11 Is it bad that my first thought was "those nails though" ?
nope. mine was too lmao
These are claws
@@uselesbian iconic claws yes
Oh yeah, I remember that plot twist in the loud house, it was SO cute!
the fact that there can be a part 2 makes my heart melt
The Owl House is the most 💜CUTEST💜 MOMENTS EVER✨✨✨ I’m obsessed with ✨LUMITY✨
when i was younger and watching steven universe i saw ruby and shappire and was like "..wow i really like their voice actors." idk why but that was the only thing in my head like for the rest of the day
I’m straight and I just smile so hard while watching these videos bruh these couples are so cute
I’m glad to see more representation in cartoons it’s really important for kids to see themselves on screen
The owl house scene still tugged at my heartstrings!
Yesss Amity and Luzzzz I love them
i really love lumity, as a gay person in a gay relationship, this is soo heartwarming
I do too, it made me realize I have a special spot for a lesbian and bi relationship. Because my girlfriend is bu, and I'm a lesbian:)

i love that ever after high played off true love’s kiss as cpr💀
loona in the backround just made it more perfect than it already was
“Undercover Mom” would’ve also been great to use for Saluna.
Luna- “I can’t concentrate man! My girlfriend Sam and I got into a tiff over a riff and now she’s miffed! I don’t know what to do.”
I literally have a heart attack every time that lumity scene comes on, but like- a good kind????
8:06 every time I watch this scene my heart just melts into a pile of goo.
What is it call?
@@1hrsong owl house.
I love lumity so much, i love them both so much and because they remind me of my girlfriend and I, we even have our contact pfps as them
🏳️🌈👍
That trollhunter scene was just out of nowhere
When I saw Luna and Sam when I was a kid I was like I'm not the only one? And now thinking back on it I just want to thank the writers like it was so much easier for me to come out when I knew that there was representation
👍🏳️🌈
@Uh Oh Stinky I know like it's so touching to see that in a kids show especially because in many TV shows it's the same stereo typical lgbtq+ character and the main character is just like they're gay and brushes past it and it rarely comes up again and they never really get good representation, but in the loud house Luna and Sam's relationship with eachother actually becomes something important to the show just like the straight ones do and I am so surprised to see that in a kids show because like I said before the lgbtq+ characters in media almost never really get representation like that
The lumity hits HARD
0:47 "she just to darn cool"
