There’s a campaign going around to give Elsa, the hero of the Frozen movie, a love interest, but not a swashbuckling prince...but a girl.

There's a campaign being waged on Twitter: 

Elsa, of course, being the queen with icy powers from the super hit Disney film 'Frozen'.

At the end of the movie - her younger sister Anna is happily paired with a guy named Kristoff.

Elsa, on the other hand, is on her own and fans are calling on Disney to give her a female companion in the sequel. 

It should be noted, this is kind of petition is not the first of its kind. First, there was the call for Star Wars'

to be more than friends. Now,

is trending.

However, #GiveElsaAGirflfriend is sparking all sorts of debate and discussion. For more, Trish Bendix, editor-in-chief of After Ellen -- a website dedicated to the representation of lesbian and bi women in popular culture, joined the show for more.
