The 20 Gayest Cartoon Characters Ever

www.gay.net/entertainment/2011/03/the-20-gayest-cartoon-characters.html

Some of them I really have to agree with. One of them is from a show that I've never even heard of, but after reading about him I definitely want to see what they're talking about.

1. Lancer/Yellow Dancer – Robotech
In order to avoid being captured by the Invid, Lancer did what any sensible soldier would do—he became a drag queen!

Under the stage name Yellow Dancer, the young soldier not only concealed his identity, but his gender as well. Prancing around in skirts, hats and high heels while he flirted with men and sang songs such as “Lonely Soldier Boy” made it obvious that Yellow Dancer learned more than combat training in the Robotech Defense Force.

Some of them, though, I think are just silly. (OK, many of them.)

and his boyfriend. They were the first two I thought of, probably because I watched that cartoon a lot when I was a kid. I guess that most people today don't know who Johnny Quest is.
