While Markovitz's appeal to lesbian stereotypes is outrageous, his underlying question isn't. But it's quite possible that while watching Brave's tomboyish heroine shoot arrows, fight like one of the boys, and squirm when her mother puts her in girly clothes, a thought might pop into the head of some viewers: Is Merida gay? The two events don't seem to have much in common at first glance. At the same time, legions of kids will swarm into theaters to watch Pixar's Brave, the animated story of a young Scottish princess named Merida who goes to extreme lengths to avoid having to marry one of the three noblemen that her parents have chosen for her.
Today, crowds will line the streets of cities like New York and San Francisco for parades that mark the high point of LGBT Pride Month.
