voltron – Page 6 – Site Title

zeerfin:

I asked josh how he felt about Shiro being gay when I met him !! 🙂

Please don’t bring ships into this ! It’s already great at the fact that he let me record him talking about a topic like this, especially since a lot of shippers are getting outta hand with the whole thingy (the voltron va’s and the creators have been through a lot :’0)

Can we just appreciate him for being such an awesome va? He was such a sweet guy when I met him too :-)) (AS wELL AS EVERYONE ELSE TOO ! I wish I got the chances to meet everyone else hnnn)

florallura:

not to be That Bitch but for Shiro, a man strong enough to survive the Galra, to be know universally as ‘the champion’, a leader of the most powerful thing in the universe, to be a mlm means so much I’m actually crying

jihaad:

congratulations to mr. and mr. voltron

actuallylotor:

i cannot believe that the vld writers really went out there and made a beefy POC disabled mentally ill gay character and made him the leader like how iconic

frogixi:

just wait

yaboybokuto:

Do you realize why Shiro being confirmed LGBT is so huge???

Netflix just took a stance on having gay characters, gay HEROES, be a role model for children ages 7 and up!!! Voltron is a show that is targeted to 7+ kids and teens and Netflix gave the thumbs up to have one of the heroes, if not the MAIN hero, be a gay man. Gay people in children’s entertainment is still wildly frowned upon, let alone a BADASS ACTION HERO!!!

This is like how we all wanted Poe Dameron to be confirmed gay, but is actually canonically happening and not unintentional queerbaiting.

This is a huge day for legitimate LGBT representation, and not just shipping headcanon assumptions. The crew decided to make a stand, make a decision, and MADE IT HAPPEN.
