Disney cartoon series Doc McStuffins featured an interracial lesbian couple, and One Million Moms are not happy.

In a first for a Disney Junior show, the most recent episode of the cartoon series featured same-sex parents.

The episode, titled The Emergency Plan, was centred around teaching kids what to do in an event of an earthquake.

Rather than featuring a mother and father, however, it featured two parents – voiced by Wanda Sykes and Portia de Rossi – trying to re-unite their family after a disaster.

The sexuality of the two moms was not a key focus of the show, but the LGBT diversity did not go un-noticed.

While GLAAD praised the “groundbreaking” episode, anti-LGBT campaign group One Million Moms attacked Disney for featuring same-sex parents.

The infamous self-appointed TV censors, who despite their name have just 3,722 mostly-male Twitter followers, claimed the show was corrupting children and enticing them into a homosexual lifestyle.

The group claimed: “Controversial topics and lifestyle choices should be left up to the parents to discuss and Disney Junior should not introduce this to young children.

“Just because an issue may be legal or because some are choosing a lifestyle doesn’t make it morally correct. Disney should stick to entertaining and providing family-friendly programming instead of pushing an agenda.”

In a pre-written letter One Million Moms encouraged supporters to threaten Disney with a boycott for at least the third time this year, after taking exception to other instances of LGBT inclusion.

Its form letter threatened: “Families tuning in to watch this children’s program will encounter a premature discussion on sexual orientation that is completely unnecessary.

“If your producers keep this episode as originally planned, then my family will have no choice but to no longer watch the Disney Channel Network in our home so we can avoid the previews and commercials for this irresponsible episode as well as any reruns of the episode.

“I will not allow the Disney Channel in my home unless you produce and air family-friendly programming.”

Show creator Chris Nee strongly defended the episode.

Nee said: “I always envision Doc McStuffins as a show about what it means to accept everyone as part of our communities.

“As part of a two-mom family, I’m proud to have an episode that reflects my son’s world, and shows everyone that love is love in McStuffinsville.”

Sarah Kate Ellis of GLAAD said: “Children like mine deserve the chance to see their families reflected on TV, and this episode does just that in a beautiful and positive way.

“Shows like this reflect our real world, and today that includes the many children being raised by gay and lesbian parents who are all going to celebrate this story.”

I have a feeling this will have about the same level of effectiveness as the NAACP asking people to boycott the NFL this season.

An excerpt:

One Million Moms is a website based on intolerance and the inability to count. It's named the same way a kid might call himself Commander Badass Boobtoucher: desperate wish-fulfillment and blatant lies. Despite being an entirely online group, they only had about 40,000 Facebook fans, an accurate count both of their real support and of how many moms don't know their kids have already blocked them. By their math, I could call my dick the Pleaser of Luxembourg and it would be more accurate, because I'm only short about half a million people.

remember when good luck charlie had a lesbian couple appear in an episode so people like this sent death threats to the 5 year old actress who played charlie?

Controversial!

Luckily the people who act like this will eventually die off and a more tolerant majority will take their place.

So they don't want Disney to show gay characters cause they think it'll make their kids gay? Is that how that works? You see gay people and you become gay?

It's kind of like how conservatives (and an alarmingly large number of posters here) believe teaching kids about transexualism will make them transgender.

im pretty sure that when i saw future trunks it made me have the gay thoughts so they might be on to something

The blonde mom looks like Elsa in her 30s.

I saw the episode because my daughter loves that show. It struck me as a little odd at first but then I didn't think anything of it until I saw this. It's a doll couple, who gives a fuck?

“Just because an issue may be legal or because some are choosing a lifestyle doesn’t make it morally correct. Disney should stick to entertaining and providing family-friendly programming instead of pushing an agenda.”

So they're pretty much saying that families with lesbian/gay parents are not "family-friendly".
---

So a group made by woman..they have to go out of their way to point out that they have a lot of male fan on Twitter ? That does surprise me.

PS... Also people who complain about gay parents piss me off. There are so many unwanted kids out there. And many of these family adopt. While the people bitching about them do not.

lol should see the splatoon 2 boards, apparently showing transgender support isn't "family friendly"

One million mom's wasn't made by women

What kinda stupid shit is this? I've seen that show before, it's about a little girl and her toys come to life, did they bitch about The Loud House having the black kid's parents be a gay interracial couple or the rock and roll sister being implied to be gay or at least bi sexual,too or that episode about the latino family so big they live in a converted apartment complex?
