No.

But was the world "ready" for women to vote when they were allowed to vote with the nineteenth amendment? Was the world "ready" for school integration in Brown v. Board? Was the world "ready" to legalize gay marriage when it did? (Sorry I'm basing this all off of American examples, as I am American and I know a large portion of this site is) The answer to all of those questions is, if you define ready as an overwhelming support, no. But that didn't stop them from happening, and in my opinion it shouldn't stop this either.

The world is never going to be "ready" for change. It's simply impossible for change to happen without something catalyzing it to happen, because even 50 years from now there will still be homophobes just like 50+ years later after the nineteenth amendment and the Brown v. Board ruling there are still sexists and racists. If we keep saying "just wait till everyone is ready" or "but!! there's homophobes still!" then we will never get an LGBT princess. We'll constantly be at a stand still in some waiting game that refuses to end.

That doesn't mean that we can get discouraged though and just keep saying "we'll wait a few more years, then people will be ready" because it just isn't realistic. We're at a key time in LGBT history when one of the largest countries in the world has legalized gay marriage, a large portion of Europe has, and a few other countries, and having Disney on board would be absolutely crucial.

Also, I'd just like to say the "but what about the children!!!!" argument is total BS. The fact that the Disney Princess franchise is so accessible to children is exactly the reason we need representation, and now! Having little girls see actual representation of princesses they can look up to who are badass and kind and just so happen to also be LGBT would be so important and make such a difference in the community, and get rid of this stigma that has followed the LGBT community for so long.

Would this make the movie unaccessible to some people and also make Disney lose money? Yes and yes. But a company as large as Disney (I'm convinced they own half the world by now) needs to be a front runner in this fight to show that people are people and love is love, and the overwhelming support it would get (and controversy) would in my opinion make it very successful, and go out to new groups who would never see a Disney Princess movie before. Yes, some countries would outlaw it, but that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be made. Disney can afford the loses, and the people that would be allowed to see it would gain so much from it.

So, of course the world isn't ready for Elsa to be lesbian--or any other Disney Princess for that matter, but I don't think that means they shouldn't. Like I said, the world is never ready to face controversial issues, but when you look back on them 50 years later you're like "really? that was controversial back then?" and I 100% believe that would be the case with this.

Thanks for reading and don't bother commenting if you disagree due to being homophobic--your opinion matters very little in my life and quite honestly I find YOU to be disgusting It's the twenty-first century, realize that LGBT+ people are people just like you. Also I don't have an opinion on the whole should Elsa be gay thing, this was more to get my feelings across on the whole should Disney have an LGBT princess. Discussions are welcome in comments, but like I said if you're going to spread hate than please don't comment!<3
