Fans Start Petition For LGBT Action in Rogue One

A group/family of fans have started a petition for Jyn Erso to represent the LGBT community in Rogue One. The movie’s filming is already completed but if Jyn’s sexual preference is not defined in the film, perhaps it could be elaborated on in other media.

The petition reads:

Dear The Walt Disney Company and it’s subsidiary, Lucasfilm Ltd. LLC,


In a world dominated by heterosexual males, we want an action star who is a female homosexual. This demographic is not filled and if Jyn Erso was a lesbian, a group of girls who are ridiculed every day in school could feel special knowing that they too could rise up and help a group facing oppression. I know my daughter would be able to relate to Jyn more should she be gay. We are open to Jyn being with Mon Mothma, Ahsoka Tano, Hera, Sabine, or any lady of the
Star Wars universe!


Please Kathleen, Bob, Gareth, and Pablo, give Jyn Erso a girlfriend!


Signed, A family of
Star Wars fans.

If you agree, re-tweet this article or share the petition with #GiveJynErsoAGF

Mon Mothma and Jyn make a pretty cute couple… just sayin.
