Rebecca Sugar, creator of Steven Universe, has come out as Bisexual
Quote:
Asked why SU has such strong female characters and pronounced and LGBTQ themes, a nervous Sugar replied:
“Well, in large part it’s based on my experience as a bisexual woman. These things have so much to do with who you are, and there’s this idea that these are themes that should not be shared with kids, but everyone shares stories about love and attraction with kids.”
“So many stories for kids are about love,” she added, “and it really makes a difference to hear stories about how someone like you can be loved and if you don’t hear those stories it will change who you are.”
Sugar says it’s important for TV shows to include diverse identities.
“I want to feel like I exist and I want everyone else who wants to feel that way to feel that way, too.”
