Disney’s Frozen skyrocketed to success led by two strong female characters, sisters Queen Elsa and Princess Anna. Unlike most Disney films, the movie, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale The Snow Queen, focused on the love between two sisters rather than a princess falling in love with a prince.

Aside from the feminist overtones of Frozen, some saw Queen Elsa’s story as a metaphor for coming out. This reading has prompted many fans of the Disney movie to demand the studio give Elsa a female companion in the upcoming sequel and spread their message on Twitter using the hashtag, #GiveElsaAGirlfriend. If the Frozen 2 writers follow through, Elsa would become Disney’s first openly gay character.

Here’s what you need to know.

1. High School Student Alexis Isabel Coined the #GiveElsaAGirlfriend Hashtag

Let's trend #GiveElsaAGirlfriend in hopes that @Disney will consider giving queer girls representation in princess form. ? — Alexis Isabel (@lexi4prez) May 1, 2016

Alexis Isabel, a high school student and contributing writer for MTV, coined the hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend in a tweet on April 30. She then tweeted to her more than 83,000 Twitter followers to tweet the hashtag at Disney.

I hope Disney makes Elsa a lesbian princess imagine how iconic that would be — Alexis Isabel (@lexi4prez) May 1, 2016

Fav this if @Disney should make Elsa from @FrozenBroadway an iconic lesbian queen ?? — Alexis Isabel (@lexi4prez) May 1, 2016

Isabel got the idea for the hashtag when she realized that she had never seen “a princess fall in love with another princess” while growing up, she wrote on MTV.com. She believed it would be “iconic” if Disney changed course from the expected — Elsa gets hitched to a prince or king — and gave her a female love interest instead. The teenager then listed off other unconventional relationships portrayed in children’s films like Shrek, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Bee Movie.

The entertainment industry has given us girls who have fallen in love with beasts, ogres who fall for humans, and even grown women who love bees. But we’ve never been able to see the purity in a queer relationship.

2. Idina Menzel Supports Her Character Getting a Girlfriend

Idina Menzel, the voice behind Queen Elsa, supports the idea of her character getting a girlfriend in the Frozen sequel. “I think it’s great,” she told Entertainment Tonight at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards. “Disney’s just gotta contend with that. I’ll let them figure that out.”

3. Queen Elsa Would Be Disney’s First Openly Gay Character

The Walt Disney Company has shown its support for LGBT issues over the years, but it has yet to feature these characters in its film productions. Fans have speculated about the sexual preference of some Disney characters such as Ursula from The Little Mermaid, Terk from Tarzan and Scar from The Lion King as well as Timon and Pumba.

Others who saw Frozen already believe the film introduced Disney’s first gay character in Oaken, the owner of Wandering Oaken’s Trading Post and Sauna. In one quick scene, he waves to his family in the sauna where another man and four children are sitting. Co-director and screenwriter Jennifer Lee commented on Oaken’s perceived homosexuality in an interview with The Big Issue in March 2014.

We know what we made, but at the same time I feel like once we hand the film over it belongs to the world so I don’t like to say anything, and let the fans talk. I think it’s up to them.

4. #GiveElsaAGirlfriend Has Received Mixed Reaction on Twitter

Isabel found a groundswell of support as her four initial tweets about idea received a combined 2,179 retweets and 5,216 likes (as of May 3). Thousands more used the hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend in their owns tweets at Disney.

#GiveElsaAGirlfriend positive queer role models are needed from a young age; early exposure leads to better understanding/acceptance. — shirl (@thedreamgrrl) May 1, 2016

#GiveElsaAGirlfriend because half of Frozen is one big metaphor for being in the closet, getting outed, and coming to terms with yourself… — Dana Addams (@TheDanaAddams) May 1, 2016

I absolutely adore the idea of #GiveElsaAGirlfriend . Kids need to know that love comes in different varieties & it's okay to be who you are — Lann❣ (@LanaxNicole3) May 1, 2016

Of course, not everyone has jumped on board with the idea. Some have threatened to boycott Disney if the plot line is developed and other have argued against the movie getting too political.

#GiveElsaAGirlfriend If #Disney does this perverted act I'm done with them. — Jim Harrison (@webdawg72) May 3, 2016

#GiveElsaAGirlfriend Get real people. This is a kid's movie. What the heck are you people thinking? Kids don't need to be exposed to that. — ed bailey (@edbailey1957) May 3, 2016

PC idiots forget that #Disney movie making is business meant to make money from mass appeal not lefty niche groups. #giveelsaagirlfriend — Furious Nation (@FuriousNation) May 3, 2016

Others believe Queen Elsa doesn’t need a woman or a man by her side to rule over Arendelle.

I'm so happy with a single princess. Why does she need a boy or girl to be a great Queen? #GirlsPower. Don't #GiveElsaAGirlfriend — Lianet González (@LianetGonzalez) May 3, 2016

Why #GiveElsaAGirlfriend? Why MUST Elsa have a significant other at all? Why do we have to focus on romance at all? — Macsen Overdrive (@macsenoverdrive) May 3, 2016

#giveElsaAGirlfriend misses the entire point of the movie. That movie was about family not about Elsa getting with anyone. — Chris Sutton (@_ChrisSutton_) May 3, 2016
