* ''WebAnimation/HazbinHotel'': The majority of the main cast being LGBT in some way (Charlie and Vaggie being a gay couple between a bisexual and lesbian respectively, Angel Dust being a gay Crossdresser, Husk being pansexual, and Alastor being asexual) has attracted a good number of LGBT viewers.
* ''WebAnimation/HelluvaBoss'', being a spin-off of ''Hazbin Hotel'', largely shares the same fanbase and has a lot of content along the same veins (Blitzo is pansexual and voiced by openly gay WebVideo/BrandonRogers, Moxxie is bisexual and his sister-in-law is a trans woman who is in turn voiced by trans woman Morgana Ignis, Stolas is implied to be demisexual with a single-target attraction towards Blitzo and most of Verosika Mayday's entire entourage are SuccubiAndIncubi with all of the tropes that imply, just to name a few examples).

** The elven TopGod Corellon Larethian has been [[{{Elfeminate}} described as androgynous]] since 1980, and is able to appear as male, female, both or neither - art for the 3rd Edition ''Deities and Demigods'' sourcebook even [[http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/dd_gallery/dd1/Corellon_p63.jpg depicts Corellon]] with rainbow-colored eye-liner. Then the 5th Edition ''Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes'' book explained that some elves have the "blessing of Corellon" and are able to change their sex at will after an eight-hour rest, part of a conscious attempt by Wizards of the Coast to embrace its LGBTQ players and make gender fluidity part of the game's official lore.

* Creator/JudyGarland had a large LGBT fanbase. In fact, it's believed that her song "Over the Rainbow" is what inspired the LGBT movement's Rainbow Flag.
