Raven Symone said Disney wanted Raven to be gay but she stood up to the 'Genda ( #sadpride)

I'll never understand the obsession some people have with whether a character or actor is gay or not.

I really feel like this culture war shyt is a mind virus.

Representation matters esp when the actress is gay.

Man, she used to be fine:

Maaaan why you post this? I had the biggest crush on her and told myself when I made it to the NFL I was gon snatch her up

 

[Artificial Intelligence]

So many videos to choose from and you picked the one where she plays a teen

high school pics you was bad then

 

[Black Mamba]

Man, she used to be fine:

Man she was my crush right there when I saw that movie
Damn shame she went weird

And before yall go
I was 10 when it came out

Cause it is. The engine driving it is hate. Claiming virtue is just an excuse.

This question doesn't relate to her sexuality, but is it just me or has something been off with her for a long time now?

 

[Dont@Me]

There was a reboot of the show… she’s not talking about the og show

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

She is gay?

This is a strange twisted tale of “but Black Dynamite, I sell drugs to the community.”

It's the reboot. Yall didn't know they rebooted it? They tried to make her gay in the reboot because she came out in real life. And she said it doesn't make sense because Raven was nowhere near gay.

This needs to be quoted multiple times. This is an old video that was hacked up and edited to make it seem like Raven was talking about the original show. Even while watching the video, it's clear that Raven is talking about the reboot because she's speaking about her character in past tense. There is absolutely no way Disney was asking a teenage Raven if she wanted her character to be gay. People are in here thinking they were trying to have a black lesbian protagonist in the early 2000s?

I can tell she just made this shyt up

My sentiments exactly lol
