prisonhannibal

there are more gay characters on duolingo than the marvel cinematic universe

johannepetereric

How? I don’t see it

the example sentences can be stuff like “her wife” or a man saying he loves his boyfriend, and the stories (at least in spanish) include gay couples.

Ok I totally agree with you but when I saw “duolingo has more gay representation than the marvel cinematic universe” I thought you were talking about how the duolingo owl was gay

Ok so there’s this Disney show called The Owl House, and, as the name implies, it has both owls and gay characters. Naturally, this lead to people making jokes about shipping one of the owls and the Duolingo owl. For a while, that’s all it was, just some fans saying “haha what if these owls were gay?” Somehow, Duolingo eventually heard about this, and started occasionally referencing The Owl House on their Twitter, including in this tweet:

If that art doesn’t say “These Owls Are Gay And There’s Nothing You Can Do About It” I don’t know what does
