LGBT in TMNT

Who are all the canon LGBT characters in TMNT?

The only one I know of is Lindsey's girlfriend from the IDW comics who worked for Null. Are there any others?

Shredder and Krang from the FW series, obviously.

I know you're probably messing but I doubt he is gay. He seemed to have a thing for April. I suppose he could be bi, but just gay? Doubtful. In that Donatello's Degree episode he was eagerly waiting for April to give him mout to mouth lol

Plus he also seemed to have a thing for that woman in the Turtles in the Orient Express train.

Anyway, I don't think there's many confirmed LGBT characters in the TMNT universe.

LGBT stands for: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*gender.

Sally has been confirmed a lesbian, but only by the creators.

Given how Ma'riell described Ch'rell, I'm pretty sure he was several levels above being another ordinary loyal soldier for Krang.

I know. Like I said, I suppose he could be bi at best. He did seem to find females attractive.

I guess the Cyber Shredder is technically trans?

As for any serious answers, I can't really think of any aside from Lindsey and her ex...

Considering her relationship with Leonardo, I think it'd be safe to say that Mirage's Radical was likely Pansexual.

4kids Don, for sure. Probably 4kids Leo.

Nick Mikey, 100%.

I think it's pretty safe to say that every version of Michelangelo is at least a least a 3 on the Kinsey.

I remember a gay user here saying that the only character he could see being gay in the TMNT world was 2k3 baxter.

When has 2k3 Don ever shown interest in males? All i remember was him being friendly with April, which led people to believe he had a crush on her.

2k3 Leo? Why?

If we're going down the stereotypical route then 87 Mike doesn't come across as liking males at all, imo. He's that chill popular dude type who'd be popular at school with girls.

Spoken like someone who clearly never hangs out on tumblr.

80s Toon Mike was ripped pretty much straight from the character of Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Dude had absolutely no romantic storylines.

And being a 3 on the Kinsey doesn't mean one has to show attraction to dudes, or can't show attraction to women.
In my opinion any good version of Mike is at very least bi.
I'd consider him pan, given his relationship in the later Mirage books.

Raph, on the other hand. That's a one-turtle straight pride parade if ever there was one.

Well someone had to say that

And yeah I know not all of tumblr is like that. But it seems to be a popular place for SJWs to congregate.

You say SJWs but what I think you mean are women.
