Imagine you’re an uncracked egg watching Frozen in 2013 and you connect with Elsa so deeply that it starts you on a journey to the cracking of your egg. Imagine you’re a closeted trans girl and you’re scared of being isolated and unloved and you see Anna reach out to Elsa with love, her reaction not rejection but understanding – you don’t have to live in fear… because for the first time in forever, I will be right here – loves her in spite of what she is, loves her unconditionally – and you see how Elsa loves her, wants to reach out to her, wants to open the door, but has been trained to keep the door shut, suffer in silence because she’s been told she’s a monster – and you see something of your own queerness in that – love and support of family, longing for love and feeling you can’t have it, being told the two of you have to be kept apart because your bond is… wrong somehow… but you love in spite of it, you both love in spite of it… You’re going to hold the elsanna ship close to your heart, because you see something of yourself within it.
