According to previous reports, Elsa is likely to have a girlfriend in "Frozen 2." LGBT seems to be pushing their case to let Elsa be their representative in the society by giving her a girlfriend. Even the fans have pleaded to Disney to give Elsa an LGBT angle in the movie's next installment. Hashtags such as #GiveEslaAGirlfriend have also become quite popular. One fan even wrote, "Making a kids movie with a queer character won't make your kids gay it will teach them that love comes in many forms #GiveElsaAGirlfriend."

According to the movie director, Chris Buck, Elsa will undergo an emotional journey in "Frozen 2." "she's just starting to feel like she can open up and have some fun again. That's what was really good about the short - we could have fun with Elsa. And that personality... you will see in the next one," he said. Based on this statement, it is safe to assume that Elsa might be a lesbian in the second part of the popular film, "Frozen."

To discourage homosexuality in animated movie, religious activists and conservatives created a petition that gathered as many as 65,000 signatures asking Disney to not give Elsa a girlfriend, but a regular boyfriend. The petition has urged Disney to promote natural family structures and encourage societal values. To promote their message, they use hashtag, #CharmingPrinceForElsa.

"We call on Disney to follow its normal trend and create a Prince character to fall in love with Queen Elsa," the petition said. "We ask that Disney find a nice and loving Prince for Queen Elsa to fall in love with."
