#lefou gay

[deepredness]

You know what’s nice?

Loving movies when you’re younger for simple, normal reasons

Then rewatching those again and realising “huh? They’re actually really gay”

And enjoying it for a whole new set of reasons

[tounezz]

So nice to get back to my comfort ship

gafou = gæ

im willing to start learning necromancy to bring this back 🧎

"For in town there's only she, who is beautiful as me. So I'm making plans to woo and marry Belle."

Oh sure, go after the woman who doesn't want you instead of the man who does. Why does your stupidity make you more attractive? God I hate you.

Relating to that previous reblog; going through abandoned LeFou RP blogs from around the time the 2017 remake came out is always such a double-edged sword although I enjoy the fair share of what little LeFou breadcrumbs I can find (as be the woe of liking a mere secondary character like him) every time the siren song of “HE WOULD NOT FUCKING SAY THAT” blares in my head

Imagine, the year is 2017. You are seeing Beauty and the Beast live action in the theaters. Every time LeFou comes on screen you think to yourself, "was THAT the gay scene?"

[sunny-clover]

Just randomly remembering how increadibly queer coded live action Le Fou was

and how I had like a month-long phase really in love with his character and trying to redeem Gaston so my bbg could have a happy ending

This one part of that scene is amazing btw

I couldn’t find the gif for it and was too lazy to go searching for too long lol

I thought we were finally over this

The types of gays

1: JK Rowling decided it is you

2: Your disney's (12th) first gay

now why was the homosexual lefou subplot in beauty and the beast more intriguing than the main het romance

Big Words Gaston/Lefou fanfiction

Chapters 3 and 4 of "Big Words", in which Gaston is trying to talk about his girlfriends with Lefou, are now out. 

“See, I’m altruistic!”

“Ooh, such a big word! Has Belle installed that vocabulary-building app on your phone?” Lefou rolled onto his back and stretched. His t-shirt rode up, exposing his soft tan belly.

Gaston lost concentration for a moment and instead of chips, grabbed a carrot stick from Lefou’s bowl.

just saw a review of strange world saying ethan's gay crush was only mentioned at the beginning of the movie and never again so foreign markets could cut it out and idk what movie they were watching because the one i saw had him discuss his crush with and get romantic advice from his family members several times, with it being very clear that his crush was on another boy. this movie is literally just not being shown at all in many foreign countries because ethan is too gay for them to cut it out. like tbh yeah it would've been nice if he and his crush, diazo, got to spend more time on screen together and be more physically affectionate, especially since we saw ethan's parents kiss multiple times. i honestly really miss disney romances and although the focus of strange world is on the clade family and i wouldn't wanna change that, i think it would've been super neat if the movie had been a little longer (and/or if maybe less important scenes could've been cut or shortened) and diazo could've somehow ended up on the adventure with them and then we got to see a few scenes of them growing closer and being flirty during it. they had a sweet little scene together at the end but it was very brief and i would've definitely preferred to see more of them together. but what we did get is a huge step up from something like live action lefou and the guy he danced with for half a second lmao.

'Straight' guys on youtube and reddit: women can't be strong, fight or go to war or have her own opinion, Rings of Power Galadriel is unrealistic women should stay in the kitchen and serve their man and just cry and swoon over their manly man

What these men think women do:

You don't want a woman you want Wiggins or Lefou or something

Not gay at all to want this over a beautiful woman kicking ass

[lesbiansandco]

You know what I need. I need a Beauty and the Beast AU where once Belle starts staying at the Beast's castle, back in the village Gaston starts to reflect in her absence. He eventually realizes that LeFou was there for him all along, and loved him when Belle did not, and they fall deeply in love.

The town forgets all about Belle, especially with Gaston and LeFou's wedding preparations going on (I don't care if it isn't historically accurate, those suckers are getting gay married), and the only people who remember her enough to care are Gaston and her father.

Love has softened Gaston's heart just a bit, and he apologizes to Maurice for harassing his daughter. Maurice forgives him, and Gaston offers a horse and weapons for Maurice to try and find Belle (Gaston never believes his story about the Beast, but it's the least he can do).

Maurice finds the castle, and finds out that Belle has fallen in love with her captor. He's in shock, but Belle convinces him that everything is alright. That's the end of Belle's subplot, because...

Gaston and LeFou have their wedding in the village and all is gay and happy. The end.

Li Shang & Fa Mulan/Ping from Mulan (1998)

Gay as an Umbrella Term: The character arc of Mulan/Ping and how they relate to their gender roles has been considered relatable to transgender fans.

It’s a Secret: Throughout the film, Mulan/Ping attempts to pass as male despite being born female, in a way that mirrors the experiences of transgender individuals at many instances.

Do Not Separate: While Mulan/Ping is considered queer on their own, Shang is often read as bisexual due to the way he exhibits interest in Mulan/Ping regardless of how they present.

VS

LeFou from Beauty and the Beast (1991)

It’s Canon: As of the live action remake of Beauty and the Beast in 2017, LeFou made headlines as “Disney’s First Gay Character!”.

Obsession: LeFou, in both the original animated film and the live action remake, is the lackey to the antagonist Gaston, and is characterized by his devotion and loyalty to him.

VS

Shere Khan from The Jungle Book (1967)

It’s Fanon: Shere Khan exhibits what is considered to be campy behavior throughout the source material, leading him to be considered among the many queer-coded villains within Disney animated canon.

im sorry but why did no one tell me that we literally have (had) a masc lesbian disney princess???? did no one think it was important?

or rather, did disney believe that promoting their insignificant gay cameo in onward and making lefou gay for 2 seconds of the beauty and the beast's live action was more important than this? did they think that 1 scene and 1 character that could easily be removed would matter most than a real sapphic storyline?

it's a pattern at this point, and not only with disney

bc if they had actually promoted this show, or any other decent show/movie featuring lgbtq main characters, our community would truly love it and support it!!

queering clichés or literary tropes is easy and it's very fun! name me someone who doesn't want to see a good masc princess x masc knight lesbian pairing?? so sick of princesses and knights unless they're queer at this point

let's be for real, a movie like bottoms could've done so much better if it had been more promoted, because who doesn't love a dumb ass teen comedy with a bunch of horny lesbians?? it feels like i've been waiting for that kind of story for ages

they don't promote, don't fund, don't support their actually queer stories and then wonder why they flop... the audacity
