- Making Ruby and Dorothy the LGBT couple is smart because they now suddenly have three LGBT characters.

- Reviews on the internet are praising the couple

- Maybe Disney didn't let them make Mulan gay. No, they don't have three LGBT characters because Mulan's sexuality is still ambiguous, and it's not about quantity, it's about quality. They may actually have three LGBT characters: Ruby and Dorothy are confirmed as lesbians, but Mulan could actually be bisexual. Keeping Mulan's sexuality ambiguous allows OUAT to swing either way, have her be with Shan Yu, give her a female partner, or just keep her solo.

Either way, I loved this episode and the fact that both Ruby and Dorothy found their happy endings. I love it when OUAT leads you to believe one thing (everyone thought that Ruby and Mulan would end up together) but blow you away with something unexpected.

This episode was purely about love and how it comes in many different shapes and forms. Placing Ruby and Dorothy's relationship in another world removes the confines and social expectations that our world has and allows the writers to focus on the fact that love has no boundaries.
