With Pride Week already kicked off in Toronto and other parts of the world, it's only natural that someone would create a series such as this one revolving around queer Disney Princes. It re-imagines this iconically masculine characters as having a secret (or-not-so secret) relationships with each other. That's right, instead of saving the princesses they supposedly love so much, these queer Disney Princes are taking showers together and more.
Created by YANN-X, the queer Disney Princes series will inspire a slew of different reactions. But as for it being tasteless, "Let’s be clear: naked Disney characters are nothing new. Everyone can do (or has done) it, but it’s not what I’m into. What I’m trying instead is to take highlights of our pop culture and show them from another point of view."
