Would we even be having this discussion if Mulan had gone to Philip with the intention of expressing her feelings, only to find out that Philip is going to be a father and realizing that the relationship would not work? I think Mulan's reaction is exactly the same, and we'd all be moving on. Why should Aurora be any different? The point is that Aurora is not her happy ending. We don't need to force that relationship.

The theme of the show is that love comes in all different forms. We've had romantic love (pick you favorite ship). We've had Parental love (Emma/Henry, Regina/Henry, Snow & David and Emma, even Rumple & Nealetc). We've had sisterly Love (Elsa & Anna, and Ingrid/Gerda/Helga), we've had Friendship (Regina & Emma). We've also seen all of the above in their broken form. My point is that LGBT is just another form of Romantic, and does not need it's own seperate focus. I'm not saying don't have it, I'm just saying don't try to focus on it. That would have a damaging effect on the show. I never said I want to force a relationship between Aurora and Mulan. In fact, I don't want that, because Aurora has never been shown to be anything but straight and in love with Phillip on this show. I simply want a love interest for Mulan that is actually interested in Mulan. I'm also not saying I want this show to make Mulan and her lover main characters. It can actually be super quick and easy. Take someone like Merida, for example, have them realize they love each other, and have them go off together. Boom, happy ending acheived, story over. One final thought, the show shouldn't not show Mulan and a lover, because it might have a "damaging effect". What does that even mean? That some bigots will not want to watch the show anymore? Well, good, we don't need them. It's 2015, not 1520, and people need to get over it.
