the amount of homophobia and transphobia here already is so stupid. tyler is a pro lgbt channel and always has been. have you ever watched his tyler tales series, at all? were you around during the era where tyler was trans? if are you are homophobic and subbed to tyler, you are not welcomed in his audience
So much for the oppeness of the liberals, free speech oppression was a tool used by fascists
Exactly man
tyler was trans?
@@KanetheGoofster from late 2021 til like 2022 yeah? hes gender neutral now. why else do you think tyler changed his character colors from blue to pink?
You think? And don’t get me started on those sigma/giga chad ‘based’ 5 years old!……..it’s honestly the reason why I don’t upload that much anymore……
There absolutely is, I mean the glam rocks exist
When I saw that poster in RUIN for the first time, I immediately yelled "GAY!"
🤣
I probably would too
Can't believe FNaF invented homosexuality
SAMEEE I WAS LIKE HOLY SHIT THEYRE GAY
I still think they're just friends as I doubt robots are capable of romantic thoughts
@@Xeorboom Fazbear can Thrust
One obscure but notable instance is Spring Bonnie's loading message being "Male? Female? Its a rabbit, who cares. " To my knowlage Spring Bonnie's gender was never debated in the community before that point. It could just be a comment about his eyelashes, but its implieng being nonbinary in some way rather than being a mildly effeminate male. Having this be Spring Bonnie's line is especially interesting due to his connection with William Afton. Is this implying that he's queer too? While unlikely and irrelevant its still interesting. Or mabey Scott just didn't know bunnys had gender lmao
Queerliam Afton
@@burner555 lmao, ya know purple guy has the same cors as the nonbinary flag? Coincidence? I think NOT!
i love how Scott accidentally made 2 non binary icons given his history
accidental ally
hey! the donations were accidental!
He isn't transphobic though I'm pretty sure, despite those donations.
Mangle is Yes, and it's always amusing to watch her scramble his way around the buildings. 🙂
12:21 Glamrock Freddy’s voice actor, Kellen Goff is apart of the LGBTQ community himself. He came out as demisexual in 2017 and then as bisexual in 2021, and has been open about, especially on twitter, and is kind of well known for being in gay anime.
omg really??? i love that for him 🥹
I didn't know that.@@fagitocumaeda
he does anime voiceovers?! (he might be in Epithet Erased now)
@@Xeorboom yes it's true
holy fvck
Here are my theories for Mangle and Funtime Foxy that I've had for a while:
Mangle - I think Mangle was designed with no gender in mind since the beginning, they're a robot that has no complete suit and is literally just a mess of parts so the employees referred to them as both or neither cuz why bother making it a character now that its sole purpose is to be ripped to shreds?
Funtime Foxy - I think Funtime Foxy is just a feminine guy and the teenager voice HandUnit mistook him for female cuz of his looks, his pronouns seem more consistently male in his descriptions in UCN and SL Custom Night along with his voice.
I do have one question tho. Why is fixed Mangle named Funtime Foxy too instead of Toy Foxy? I wonder if SL Foxy's design influenced Toy Foxy's design, that could be why they're almost the same.
But we do know mangle's gender it's yes
Also your theory seems real but maybe mangle had a gender in the beginning but the employees forgot it
@@novreetosdoritos that seems the most likely
I absolutely love the idea of a femboy Funtime foxy
@@Potato.644reminds me a lot of The Hazbin Hotel character Angel Dust
@@1_Helluva_Hazbin_Fella but with Alastors voice.
mangle isnt boy or girl on they/them its yes
Honestly I hope that Mangle’s gender identity gets properly addressed and revealed in the second movie since I feel like the movie has the perfect opportunity to give the question a proper answer
Actually she's just canonically female.
It's been addressed
@@Candjstudios2024 Well yes Mangle has been classified as a female they’ve also been identified as male by Phone Guy during Fnaf 2 night 3 phone call were he calls them both he/him and of course there’s the classic answer Scott gave when asked the question he said yes and then last year Freddy In Space 3 came out and one of the levels “Quiz time with Monty” the final question was what is Mangle’s gender and again the answer given was yes
@@ReeceConnor. Phone guy calls mangle male because he's used to foxy being a he. And Mangle's gender being yes in the quiz was a joke. Scott has called mangle she on Reddit more times than there are puppetmaster movies and comics (and games) so that's like what, atleast 30 something?
@@Candjstudios2024 Honestly I’m still on the fence of Mangle being gender fluid but if that’s you see Mangle as being female then that’s perfectly fine ☺️
I personally believe mystic hippo is just related to Mr hippo though I have a different lgbt head canon for Mr hippo, it’s Mr Hippo x Orville Elephant
I like how it's more implied than anything. It's not in-your face.
Also regarding Funtime Foxy, I like to headcanon that they can change gender/personality based on the situation. They ARE canonically able to change voice, after all!
If we get explicit LGBT representation in FNAF, brace yourselves.
Not because of the actual FNAF content itself, but because we’ll have to deal with anti-SJW content farms and anti-woke crybabies.
Just be ready to Synthetic man discover the fnaf games and call them "woke"
13:53 I’m fine if people believe they are more but personally I believe they are just close friends because I don’t believe Scott would do something deep like this with his character regardless if it’s chica and Freddy or bonnie or whatever
i love fronnie so much, they make me ill (positive). thank you for talking about them!!! 🩵🧡🩵🧡
also not to mention that in glamrock bonnie's room, theres only glamrock freddy merch!! while all the other characters only have their own merch in their rooms. it raised my eyebrows at least
and now this is just speculative, but why does bonnie hide a vent leading directly to fazer blast with that cute ass signed poster????
you can ofc say its just for game reasons and isnt deep, but i read it differently lol.
another thing is their matching earrings, and if you know anything about gay culture in the 80s and the game being in an 80s inspired mall.... 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
anyway; theyre so gay and in love, ur honor
Even though LGBTQ representations isn't very focused in the lore or in the games as much, but as a Bi-curious male, I can see where the series is going with this, and I like it a bit.
The good thing about it in fnaf is that it isn’t forced in and obnoxious. There is no message behind it. Just their for fun. If anything it’s what gives these characters charm in a jokey manor.
If anything, Scott did subtle representation better than Hollywood more often than not.
scott hates lgbtq ppl what r u talking about
Another with the foxys, lolbit- "ooh yikes, that one was worse than listening to people debate my gender."
those voicelines aren't canon btw, but they're really cool imo! (no hate just correction :])
If I'm being completely honest, I always saw Mangle as a female. Her voice in UCN feels more damaged than anything to me, and in the games, Mangle was created during a time where memebers of the LBGT community were still frowned upon enough for big companies to not include any characters who are even remotely gay.
However, I'm not gonna shit on people who think otherwise. At the end of the day, while what others believe Mangle to be is unconfirmed, what I believe Mangle to be is also unconfirmed, and really, I'm not gonna shit on people for having different headcanons than me. Even if Mangle IS confirmed to be an enby, she'll still be one of my favorite characters in the series regardless.
Sexual orientation is something that I really don't care about in a person, let alone a fictional character, much like their race or religion. At the end of the day, we're all children of God(or children of science if you're an athiest), and we shouldn't treat people like lesser beings because of something so trivial about them.
This is Scout rainbows makes him cried - Spy from tf2 🏳️🌈
Can't believe scout is a conservative
Tf2 takes place in the 70s, I don’t think any of the characters would pro lgbt.
@@PabloBudgaga-ui9gu "get behind me doctor"
@@PabloBudgaga-ui9guevery tf2 character is 100% STRAIGHT
I tend to expect this kind of discussion to go to shit from ether side but here we go.
I always referred the mangle as an “it” purely because I assumed it didn’t have a gender due to being a scrap animatronic, although I think UCN confirms she’s gender fluid. I think Scott may have originally intended for him to be female, but used male pronouns in the phone call because of the phone guy talking about a foxy animatronic (if that makes sense). As for mystic hippo, along with what you said in the video, if Steel Wool wanted Her to be Mr. Hippo, then I feel like there would probably be more similarities like giving Mystic hippo a more square nose like Mr. Hippo (although maybe my legally blind ass is seeing the design wrong lol). I know you can get plastic surgery for that, but if they wanted the two to be connected, it would make more sense for them to look more similar imo.
Hopefully my dumbass words this well.
Every character, next question.
Honestly Mystic Hippo gives me drag queen vibes
thats gotta funtime foxy for me
I’ve always had my eye out on these little hints, and while it took me a while to see it in the original games, the Security Breach games DEFINITELY delivered for me. I mean, the animatronics are GLAM-rock after all, not to mention all the glamorous (pun intended) fan art of them, possibly more than the OG games.
As a shipper of Fronnie myself, I honestly interpret it as both ways ‘cause it’s entertaining to see how both scenarios would go. 😅
I swear Funtime Foxy is referred to as "she" somewhere. I'm not trying to argue with anyone, but I very firmly remember Funtime Foxy being spoken about with "she" as a pronoun.
Idk where tho, I just remember it,
It was sister location I think
@@creepyone3348 yeah, probly
Sister Location and UCN
@@aagsmd Yeah that makes sense
Agreed on Fronnie being a couple
My Glam Freddy plushie misses Glamrock Bon a ton and Dread Ducky does comfort Freddy as the best ducky friend he can be for him!
Gay
dude... They're kids...
DARK DECEPTIOOONNN
@@danielferrovias no? the glamrocks are advanced AI
@@TheMayoIsRaw still kids
The voice of mangle that masculine part is that other head is the parrot
Why hello there old sport!
Also, about Funtime Foxy, HandUnit refers to her explicitly by she/her AND he/him! Unsure if they/them too, but I just watched a playthrough and yep, he/she icon.
i think funtime foxy real pronouns is the radio demon from hazbin hotel
The/radio/demon/from/Hazbin/Hotel
i think it's great that the genders and sexualities are able to be hinted at, it allows ppl to really see themselves in a series they love.
and on the topic of glamrock fronnie, i know a lot of the problems ppl have with it is due to fnaf shipping in the past (which is not rlly chill considering the animatronics were possessed by children), but (to my knowledge) the glamrocks are not. if you think fronnie is canon in the sb arc, cool! if you don't, cool! i don't think either should be seen as an issue.
Though FNAF does a good job having some lgbt representation, its undeniable that The Helluvaverse (Hazbin Hotel+Helluva Boss), The Owl House and Steven Universe are the forms of media that i know of that'll be the biggest representations in lgbt in media
I refuse to accept William Afton as anything but at least mildly queer in some way. He’s purple which is very associated with gays. You look at the two versions we’ve been given (graphic novel and movie) and tell me they’re straight. Especially the graphic novel. Like come on. Look at how he stands when you first see him. Look at how he carries himself. As for the movie. No straight man dresses like that or gives off those vibes. Also I like to think toy Bonnie has something going on gender wise. He just seems like he doesn’t know and identifies as whatever.
My headcanon for what Mangle's gender was is that since they have two heads (I say that because the foxy head of the other one has an Endoskeleton in it) I imagined that the one with the fox head was a girl and the one with the plain Endoskeleton head was a boy, but I'm alright with Mangles gender being They/Them or Yes
I personally believe Funtime Foxy is male with a feminine appearence but Mangle is genderless so goes by anything
Considering _this_ community, I have a feeling 50% of the comments are hidden because of homophobia and transphobia. Must be a bother having to go through the comments approving and not approving. It's rough out here, buddy.
And this may sound dramatic but it was very brave of you to post this, especially for _this_ community and their track record of being toxic and cringey.
tysm for this! it's important to bring this up even if people don't think it's 'true' or 'forced and unnecessary'
i hope the people who want to say horrible things about this concept understand that
-even if it's minimal, we appreciate it
-not all of it is forced, being inclusive is a good thing
-it's literally robots. dude. it does not have 'those parts'. it's just presentation, story, and how the people around it see it.
-you can call a robot a she. you can call a robot a he. you can call a robot a they. you can call a robot a it. literally nobody gives two fucks. if you wanna go off the confirmed ones for the clear cut characters, go wild. but if theyre ambiguous and you force your thoughts on others? (yes, this also includes forcing seeing them as ambiguous as well because it is both sides.) just. just don't.
is all
also!! as for fronnie!! your honor who the fuck cares if the animatronics kiss. if they do? who cares! if they don't? who cares! just don't claim it's 'protection' or something, you need evidence disproving it. if they are confirmed lgbtq+? theyre lgbtq+. cope and seethe.
I love that we get all types of representation in not only this but many other franchise’s, I can really appreciate it now as i’m moving out of that edgelord teenager phase of my life and willing to see more perspectives then one extremely negative and self-devaluation one that i’ve had for awhile
As an aromatic bisexual feminine male, I have a ton of LGBTQ headcanons
No your profile looks like a bee
I'm so scared to search by newest. I'm not LGBT, but human rights are human rights.
This is a very good video! Few would cover this topic.
Great video mate, usually when I see content such as this I'm inclined to click off within a few minutes seeing as- frankly a lot of it is just flat out inflammatory and often lacks a critical eye in favor of emotional satisfaction. But this immediately established the vibe as a chill and grounded analysis, of which is a great and much appreciated change of pace.
Personally, I've always gone with a relatively simple explanation for all of this. Scott, being a conservative Christian who's also stated to be LGBT accepting, intentionally made or otherwise green-lit these characters or dynamics to allow for fans to make of them what they will and show his openness rather then just alleging acceptance. I'd even dare say the ensuing debate has validated that potential endeavor full send.
Mangle is *your* yes, not your affiliations no. Make it whatever you want it to be because you want to.
Also some people think of t Bonnie as like. Gender-fluid or like. Femboy. Which makes sense. I mean.
Okay, this video popped into my recs just as I decided that I would cosplay Glamrock Chica at Disneyland's Pride Nite this year. Coincidence? I think NOT!!! 🥰🏳🌈
Mystic Hippo is a really cool and unique variant of a character and I hope we see more of her in more games
Maybe freedy and bonnie are roommates
I’ve always just assumed mangle was female
As a Panromantic, Demisexual, Genderfluid. LGBT representation isn’t my main focus to media of FNAF. But, I want to be happy with the quality of the production being made.
I see Funtime Foxy/Mangle as Genderfluid (Any Pronouns) and William Afton-free Spring Bonnie as just Non-Binary (He/They). I kinda think Lolbit is Genderqueer (Interchangeably Any Pronouns), Demigender (Retroactively Any Pronouns), or Non-Binary (They/Them).
I consider my Mangle/Funtime Foxy within the lens of my eyes within the Magistralverse Mangle as just Genderfluid/Non-Binary (She/He/They/It/etc). I kinda see her as some genderfluid tomboy girl with female presenting appearances.
I just like the fan art of Mangle being drawn as a girl or as a effeminate feminine man or a emasculating tomboyish woman.
I have a headcanon that foxy and bonnie are bi.
If you knew Deimoss then this conversation would be different :P
For me I think Funtime foxy is a male however I do like Funtime foxy being female and as for mangle/toy foxy/Funtime foxy I think they are gender-fluid. For glamrock Bonnie & glamrock Freddy I think they are a couple lol
(Edit:had to change it just to be more correct with grammar even tho people probably don’t care and I forget to mention I like to headcannon sun and moon/daycare attendant has he/him/they/them pronouns :p)
I guess so, and I love it.
You forgot about toy bonnie
honestly in my opinion with no hate, i do not think that a game like five nights at Freddy's should have much to do with lgbtq primarily because its centered around robots which defiantly can not, (like ppl say with mystic hippo and mangle, ) be transgender or identify as anything as they are robots, they dont really have a gender
The only thing I have to say about that is the Glamrocks who are personified
@@Tylerland264 yeah I do agree with that
The franchise has been fruity tbh even if nothing is confirmed it’s just is and it’s amazing 😭
Eh. Why not after all we are all people anyways (scott decided after trying to tell the fans what gender mangle is)
Amazing video :)
I quite enjoyed it
:0
Mangle can't identify, as its not alive,
Tis but an object, with an implied sex.
But I'm glad everyone is having fun
>as its not alive
Bro, that thing is possesed
Where is springbonnie? (FNAF world)
I think Glamrock Fronnie is canon because I heard a theory about how Freddy was the one that decommitioned Bonnie on twitter once and that thign was so sad when I thought about it, Freddy killed his own lover and didn't even know it was him, I love angst so much.
Scott might be mad
Why would he? he approved of that poster in RUIN.
@@AndrewJohn100 I don’t know but he dotante to anti LGBTQ
just because he donated to someone who’s anti LGBTQ does NOT mean Scott is anti LGBTQ
Yes and it's great.
I love the Fronnie ship! I'm glad knowing steel wool supports us 🏳🌈
Same! I think it's a really cute ship!
Chica is also sadly lesbian according to google
Guys will you shut up about mangle and Funtime Foxy from Sister location being the same, cuz thy aren't. It's been made very clear that the Funtime Foxy from Sister location and the one from FNAF world are distinctive characters. Funtime foxy or as it is actually toy foxy because of the retconns, is definitely female, while the one from Sister location is definitely male. Im not trying to be rude, but things are pretty dang obvious nowadays.
I will not argue about Mangle as I do not care to do so. However, while Funtime Foxy is mostly referred to or are implied to be male, Funtime Foxy is exclusively referred to as a girl by HandUnit in Sister Location, making this debate not so clear cut.
😮
I believe in Fronnie.
I am somewhat skeptical with Fronnie. Specifically due to the fact that Glamrock Freddy is implied to have once been Micheal Afton. His movie reincarnation Mike Schmidt is speculated to have feelings for Vanessa A’s film counterpart Vanessa Shelly. If Mikenessa is canon in the mainlines and Mike is Glamrock Freddy. I think Glamrock Freddy currently identifies as either Bi or even Queer.
Glamrock Freddy being Micheal Afton is just a far-fetched theory, and movie Mike is Mike Schmidt, not Micheal Afton.
@@AndrewJohn100 People believe Glamrock Freddy is Micheal because of a basement that looks alike to a location Micheal had once set on fire.
@@AndrewJohn100 Movie Mike and Micheal Afton have the same story premises.
13:54 That's just a theory, A Gay Theory!
Lol
I don't have a problem with the lgbtq community, but can't we just have fnaf be a horror game.
Look I'm sorry but if you're playing the fnaf games and wanting them to "just be a horror game" than I have bad news about literally every aspect of this franchise
@@sanrusdyne well considering fnaf is meant to be a horror game, I'm gonna expect it to be a horror game.
@@sanrusdyne and isn't fnaf meant to be a horror game. Idk what you mean by all aspects about the franchise. It used to be a litral horror game.
@@Coztin Key words, "Used to"
I get it, I'm personally way more into classic FNaF, but there's a point where you simply have to admit that a series has diversified itself and is now fundamentally different as a result.
@@CornKaine I just think it also weird to go from a horror game about dead kids being stuffed into animatronic suits, now it's about all sci fi and the animatronics having to much personality and acting like humans.
Well...here's what I think about the video, so as not to offend anyone (if possible):
