From Terreis giving her Rite of Caste to Gabrielle after spending just 5 minutes with her, via naked ladies dancing in the moonlight together, to Gabby asking Xena to settle down in an Amazon village, everything involving the Amazons was so very, *VERY* gay. 🥰
Traditional Amazons are typically depicted as gay, only mating with men when they have to. Other methods included buying unwanted girl babies, who traditionally held lesser value, and, in extreme cases, abduction!

This was great. I forgot about Anokin. Nice catch. Gawd, Najara. Couldn't stand that woman. And she definitely was obsessed with Gabrielle haha. Love M'lila. So important but hardly talked about. LAO MA! Love that woman! Xena and her were definitely a thing. Deep love.
Xena was big jealous and mad! Until then, she knew she had Gabs' heart on lock. I don't think she ever fathomed having competition for Gabs' love and affection.
Most of them weren't all that hidden, especially our two leading ladies, lol. And as much as I didn't care much for AITST, Xena was literally wailing over losing Gabrielle and followed that up by killing a horse and drinking its blood to cross over to find her, that was mind blowing. And when that Anokin appeared, Xena's tongue was just about hanging out! This show was a treat just about every week, we were in gay heaven. Too bad they screwed us over in the end but did we love the journey! ;)
"where they float through the air and into each others arms and if that's not them having se--" RIGHT!? How is that not just stylistic story telling!?!?!
I was just at the 25th anniversary Xena con and can confirm that Jae (formerly known as Jacqueline) Kim totally confirmed that is what they were doing. XD
I absolutely must do a full series rewatch of Xena. It's been far too long and I had forgotten most of everything in this video. Noticed a couple of actresses who also made appearances on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, too. I definitely need to watch Xena again in it's entirety.
This was a great break down. I've been looking at episodes where their love and affections were very palpable lately. You should do a smash up of all the times they told each other they loved each other, or almost (The Price). Also, do a video of all the times they lovingly embrace or look into each other's eyes. You will melt! My favourites are them by the campfire after Xe talks about Sirra in "Callisto"; them embracing and crying at Ephiny's pyre in "Endgame" ; Xe looking down and up at Gabs after giving her Sappho's poem in "MHR"; and the very last shot of Xena looking at Gabs in "The Abyss".
Ummm…how can you not have Tara on this list?? The tension between her and Gabrielle was hilarious. They both wanted Xena but Gabby wasn’t willing to share!
Thank you so much for so wonderfully articulating what I’ve thought for years! You certainly have made certain, with your visuals & commentary, that Xena & Gabrielle’s saga remains timeless.
I'm here for my hidden lesbians :D actually...this show made me question my lesbianness back in the day. Turns out it helped me to come out eventually ;) amazing video!
Katzedernacht22 so did you hsve crush on xena as teenager and do um howvdonsay this anim approiut way msdturbstion you ever done lesbian mssturbatition
Love this. I always thought that Yakut and Cyane had something going on in Lifeblood especially when Cyane questioned why Yakut took the arrow for her that cost her her life and Xena says "because she loved you," in a very dramatic tone . I'm like wow Xena even sees it too? lol. Varia and Eve had some interesting subtext going on in Coming Home up until she remembered her as Livia. Although I am not completely convinced she could not place her as Livia until she saw that move she did it's not like Eve wore a mask or briefly showed herself to them during the Amazon Raid. I also liked Ephiny and Gabrielle's subtext as well as Ephiny and Solari lol.
The best thing is that some of them weren't even hidden. Brunhilda had explicitly fallen in love with Gabrielle. Ares called Athena's second in command her "girlfriend". XWP had SO many more-or-less confirmed LGBT+ characters. If I remember right : - Canon wlws: Xena, Gabrielle, Brunhilda, Athena and her girlfriend, but also Clea in "Send in the Clones" and the lesbian couple in "Soul Possession". - Queercoded ladies: countless (Lao Ma, Najara, Thalassa, Akemi, Cleopatra, Alti, Minya, Paulina, Mel...) - Canon mlms: Vidalus. - Queercoded men: Jace, Brutus, Caligula. - Possibly 1 trans woman: Miss Artiphys, who could also be seen as a drag queen.

Best array of clips and evidence I’ve ever seen. Most breathtaking events and acts of devotion. I miss witnessing these in full depth and detail since I can’t stream this anywhere for free these days.
This one of those shows that I think must be owned! I bought it all decades ago and I'm so glad because streaming platforms can take access away whenever they like. I now have it digitized on a hard drive. 100% recommend.

Actress Alison Bruce played Queen Melosa and later Talia, the sheriff, in the ep "Animal Attraction," in which Xena announces that she's pregnant. Both characters always read lesbian to me. Talia is married but tells Xena she doesn't love her husband, the warlord Darcon, who is now threatening her town. In the end, Talia beats Darcon in a classic western showdown between lawman and bad guy. She doesn't kill him, but she kills in her costume: rakish hat, duster, leathers, blades and spurs. As Vidalus would say: bold choice!
Alty was the perfect evil lesbian and Lao ma is by far my favorite because she was so tender with Xena,they really loved each other,one of my fav fanfics is about their relationship, Lao Ma's kiss

In my book, Athena was Lesbian, Artemis and Aphrodite were Extremely Bi. A lot of people are forgetting that traditionally Artemis was the Patron of the Amazon's and also the sponsor of Atalanta. Just not the Hercules one. Mythology Atalanta was extremely Lesbian, and, after being tricked into marriage, still went after 'Her Nymphs' and continued to try to win back favor with Artemis.
I watched Xena faithfully back in the day, and rewatched most episodes many times. I never thought Callisto was Livia/Eve. I thought it was the fruition of Callisto wanting Xena all those years. She touched Michael and through his power inseminated Xena. I always believed that Eve was the product of Callisto and Xena. Also a gift of life to Xena for redeeming her soul from Hell.
don't forget Alti's: 'I've always wanted to be, inside of you Xena.' from 5x05, when Alti stole the soul, of Xena's baby. there's also the bacchae from 2x04, who had to get close to Xena & Gabrielle, to turn them into bacchae. if we're talking about toxic couples, Eve/Livia & Varia.
Only a handful of Xena's lovers were alive by the end of the series which means she was really worried about Gabrielle reaching the same faith when the crucifixion tragedy happened,this makes me a little sad because...and the end of the day,the end of the series,she realized she would better off die than to watch Gabrielle die 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

I don't remember her name, in the episode Kindred Spirits, a blonde, she have a crush on Xena. And a shipp that I had haha was Eve and Varya, but it doesn't count.
Glad I could help your day go better! And true Eve and Varya, totally forgot them. I see who you mean for kindred spirits - I read it more as her wanting to go adventuring but I see the potential now you mention it!
Before Gabrielle, Xena and the underwater Maidens. I think there was something underlying in the most of the hate between Xena and Callisto. GREAT video!!!
@@FrancesBWest0612 Yeah, Calisto was a kid who worshipped Xena, but, she was a warlord, and, burned the village, that killed her parents, Xena always said "I never killed women and children!", however, she did 'inadvertantly', nonetheless, burning villages full of people, doesn't mean they don't have children🤔😥Calisto was the only survivor of her village🤕
I'd like to see Mackenzie foy,kaya scodelario or Emily Casey play eve daughter name after xena it would be great story passing on legend hero warrior princess or I'd like to see prequel tv series about evil xena also Lucy could do voice over just like they did with young Sheldon?
I thought every woman in the show was gay. Or hoped they were. I have to confess that I loved Lesbians even before I knew what they were. I was always a bit unusual. I can't prove it, but I created the first Interracial Super Hero Team in 1964! I was a Midwestern White Boy, the only kid in my First Grade class who Started First Grade being able to, mostly, read. I really did live way back in the woods and Comics, Adventure Books, TV, and Saturday Matinees, many of them Sword and Sandals movies, which were Popular in the 1960s. As a result, I was Creating my own Characters. Even in those times, with all the stereotypes of the early 1960s, my team had a Native American as the Leader, Chinese Man, White Man, African American Man, Latino Man, and a Greek Goddess who was the most powerful member. It was 1969, the Matt Helms movie, The Wrecking Crew, specifically the fight between Nancy Kwan and Sharon Tate! I had seen female fights in Movies and TV before, but this was the first time I had seen one where the women, at least looked, like they knew what they were doing. I was 12 and on the verge of puberty. And in my dreams, Nancy and Sharon would end it different. 😀 Over the next few years I was introduced to Emma Peel, Angela Mao and the Asian women, as well as a second wave of more explicit Sword and Sandals movies; the Arena, Wonder Women vs Super Stooges, War Goddesses etc. And, again I can't prove it, in 1975 I created the first LGBT Character, Tina Takamoto aka Kamikaze. Former Top Policewoman of the Tokyo Police Department who gains Wind and Air Powers. She defends her name, saying that she's Japanese and has Wind Powers, what else can she call herself. In 1984 I became Manager of a San Diego Comic Book Store. I even got to hang out with some people who are now insanely wealthy and famous, while I am still nothing. I tried getting into Independent Comics myself in 1987, but I wasn't good enough. Xena was a phenomenal Comic achievement. It had very broad appeal. Straight Men and Women loved the Action, Gay Men came up with their own ships, Joxer and Ares was extremely popular, and Lesbian and Bi-sexual women of course shipping Xena and Gabrielle. In fact, there was an Upper Middle Class Night Club for Lesbian and Bi-sexual women only 2 blocks from our Store. I was even dating a Bi-sexual woman at the time. And, she Latina, which is one of the reasons it didn't last. 😀 Xena's comics came with 2 different covers, Photo of Comic Art. Photo covers were the more Popular. I later moved back to my old home town, and opened my own Comic Book Store until 2008. I would love to find some new Fanfiction sites. I love all the Women of Xena, I tend to reform most of the Bad Girls. A couple of exceptions. And I try to even the Odds. In my version, when the Gods tried to kill Xena on the Cliff they had to back off as Apella, Questar, and Lord Raiden showed up on Xena's side.
100 Percent Shipper💐🌈😘I had no idea, that, Lilly Rush👮#ColdCase💖had to work so hard, to get her girl🤗after all, Scotty's girl, made her blush "your so pretty."😘😘😘😘but when you break it down, Gabrielle was a woman tease, even 'Teres', the Amazon Queen, liked her, and, gave her, her mantle, you don't suppose because Gabby traveled with her man #Xena☺️😂these women found her 'attractive, do you???🤔😏😍
Brunhilda is one of those clingy/ neurotic ladies . I mean... Gabrielle kept saying she wasn't interested yet Brunhilda wasn't having it 😅 she crazy. Also, i forgot how many women Xena liked over the years ... player 😂
In Ancient Rome / Greek mythology, the elites did not see gender. They slept with both men and women because it was a symbol of their power over people.
Do u think that Gabrielle would still be around after she and Hope die in the lava pit at the end of Season 3. Because Xena would have to go on alone and every female that she has met has all died.
Xena being pregnant with a child who has the soul of Callisto is like masturbation/incest/mother issues all rolled into one. You could argue that Xena was already Callistos mother in the sense that Xena "gave birth" to Callisto when she killed her family and set her on that evil path.
A lot of this flew over my head as a child, really wish the world wasn't so homophobic so this could have been more explicit. But this was a fun video to watch.
Alti and Xena never did it. That was Anoken's job. She looks like Gabby. I think Anoken was talking to Alti who was right there behind Xena. What revenge? That had nothing to do with Anoken Cyane 3 can see what Xena will become like Lao Ma and is a shamaness
And I have thee 'entire #Xena 6 season series, plus, the 1st season of #HerculesTheLegendaryJourneys, that introduced 'Xena, and sent her home to her own series, and, I revisit my favorite eps. frequently, so.....suck it! #ShippersAnXenaFans..... PeaceAnLoveToYouAllThou....#ImClexaKruForever2...
@@100percentshipper well Lucy lawless said thst xeba abd Gabriele are ment to be married but that had to be changed because of cable censorship at the time
This was a great TV show. Just because it showed strong women who had a heart, and human feelings, doesn't make it gay. Two women who look out for each other, best friends, sisters. All the adventures they had, hey, I would be hugging my bestie too! Why do people have to try and put a label on this. In my opinion, they were not gay, it was a sisterhood, including the Amazons, looking out for each other. Nothing more.
I get some don't see it, but this was super important rep from so many queer women. We had almost nothing in the 90's and certainly not anything as thoughtful as this. Everyone on the show was aware and wrote for the sapphic audience. They couldn't make it explicit because they were censored, but it's all there.
The creators, actors and basically everyone in the show confirmed this to be the case. Sorry to break it to you. Lol. It was the 90s so it was done in subtext but they all knew what they were doing.
From Terreis giving her Rite of Caste to Gabrielle after spending just 5 minutes with her, via naked ladies dancing in the moonlight together, to Gabby asking Xena to settle down in an Amazon village, everything involving the Amazons was so very, *VERY* gay. 🥰

And in my dreams, Nancy and Sharon would end it different. 😀 Over the next few years I was introduced to Emma Peel, Angela Mao and the Asian women, as well as a second wave of more explicit Sword and Sandals movies; the Arena, Wonder Women vs Super Stooges, War Goddesses etc. And, again I can't prove it, in 1975 I created the first LGBT Character, Tina Takamoto aka Kamikaze. Former Top Policewoman of the Tokyo Police Department who gains Wind and Air Powers. She defends her name, saying that she's Japanese and has Wind Powers, what else can she call herself. In 1984 I became Manager of a San Diego Comic Book Store. I even got to hang out with some people who are now insanely wealthy and famous, while I am still nothing. I tried getting into Independent Comics myself in 1987, but I wasn't good enough. Xena was a phenomenal Comic achievement. It had very broad appeal. Straight Men and Women loved the Action, Gay Men came up with their own ships, Joxer and Ares was extremely popular, and Lesbian and Bi-sexual women of course shipping Xena and Gabrielle. In fact, there was an Upper Middle Class Night Club for Lesbian and Bi-sexual women only 2 blocks from our Store. I was even dating a Bi-sexual woman at the time. And, she Latina, which is one of the reasons it didn't last. 😀 Xena's comics came with 2 different covers, Photo of Comic Art. Photo covers were the more Popular. I later moved back to my old home town, and opened my own Comic Book Store until 2008. I would love to find some new Fanfiction sites. I love all the Women of Xena, I tend to reform most of the Bad Girls. A couple of exceptions. And I try to even the Odds. In my version, when the Gods tried to kill Xena on the Cliff they had to back off as Apella, Questar, and Lord Raiden showed up on Xena's side.
Eu adoro seus vídeos porque você realmente vai nos mesmo pontos em que eu acredito.
100 Percent Shipper💐🌈😘I had no idea, that, Lilly Rush👮#ColdCase💖had to work so hard, to get her girl🤗after all, Scotty's girl, made her blush "your so pretty."😘😘😘😘but when you break it down, Gabrielle was a woman tease, even 'Teres', the Amazon Queen, liked her, and, gave her, her mantle, you don't suppose because Gabby traveled with her man #Xena☺️😂these women found her 'attractive, do you???🤔😏😍
the term ''hidden lesbians'' makes me laugh
Brunhilda is one of those clingy/ neurotic ladies . I mean... Gabrielle kept saying she wasn't interested yet Brunhilda wasn't having it 😅 she crazy.
Also, i forgot how many women Xena liked over the years ... player 😂
Where was all the gay men?There would have been literally been no one for me.I always had a thing for Autolycus.😁
@@isaacortiz4617Joxer has a gay brother, in the 100th episode. there's also a gay/drag queen, in a season 2 pageant episode.
@@RazvanMihai88 So one gay man and a drag queen,thanks.😄
In Ancient Rome / Greek mythology, the elites did not see gender. They slept with both men and women because it was a symbol of their power over people.
Do u think that Gabrielle would still be around after she and Hope die in the lava pit at the end of Season 3. Because Xena would have to go on alone and every female that she has met has all died.
Xena being pregnant with a child who has the soul of Callisto is like masturbation/incest/mother issues all rolled into one. You could argue that Xena was already Callistos mother in the sense that Xena "gave birth" to Callisto when she killed her family and set her on that evil path.
after watching all of your Xena videos, I think the version I watched when I was young, on my local tv, was heavily censored 😭
I have heard this a few times. Time for a rewatch?
@@100percentshipper seems so.
@@100percentshipper Definitely!
Every Amazon?
A lot of this flew over my head as a child, really wish the world wasn't so homophobic so this could have been more explicit.
But this was a fun video to watch.
Calisto was not her daughter, Eve is Xena's and Calisto's (!) daughter. Xena and Calisto is a huge ship, Calisto pretty much impregnates her.
Eve had Callisto's soul though. She impregnated her too, that's true.
what a title haha 🤣👍
Mais na verdade quem era o verdadeiro amor de xena???,não era gabrielle?
Yeah that was funny 😅😅😊😊😂❤❤ I loved it
I don't think "Xena" was gay at all.
Ummm xena and Gabrielle
Alti best antagonist ever..
Alti and Xena never did it. That was Anoken's job. She looks like Gabby. I think Anoken was talking to Alti who was right there behind Xena. What revenge? That had nothing to do with Anoken Cyane 3 can see what Xena will become like Lao Ma and is a shamaness
And I have thee 'entire #Xena 6 season series, plus, the 1st season of #HerculesTheLegendaryJourneys, that introduced 'Xena, and sent her home to her own series, and, I revisit my favorite eps. frequently, so.....suck it! #ShippersAnXenaFans.....
PeaceAnLoveToYouAllThou....#ImClexaKruForever2...
História q comove ❤
I’m a thespian… oh 😅😅😅
I forgot they made Calisto her daughter. Not cool
Xena, the lesbian princess
they were not so hidden
Well true to anyone who was aware of the lesbian subtext!
@@100percentshipper well Lucy lawless said thst xeba abd Gabriele are ment to be married but that had to be changed because of cable censorship at the time
Y eso que creo fue una de las primeras serie lesbicas......🎉
I’m sorry what. How is there any question this isn’t gay.
How was the 90s about gay people?
Not great! That's why the show had to hide the gayness.
❤❤
Ummmmm, wtf? Clones? What clones? There were clones in the show?
so cool man and real with lovey
Makes sense eveyone was bi sexual back then
Hidden?!
Hidden?
"Hidden"
This was a great TV show. Just because it showed strong women who had a heart, and human feelings, doesn't make it gay. Two women who look out for each other, best friends, sisters. All the adventures they had, hey, I would be hugging my bestie too! Why do people have to try and put a label on this. In my opinion, they were not gay, it was a sisterhood, including the Amazons, looking out for each other. Nothing more.
I get some don't see it, but this was super important rep from so many queer women. We had almost nothing in the 90's and certainly not anything as thoughtful as this. Everyone on the show was aware and wrote for the sapphic audience. They couldn't make it explicit because they were censored, but it's all there.
The creators, actors and basically everyone in the show confirmed this to be the case. Sorry to break it to you. Lol. It was the 90s so it was done in subtext but they all knew what they were doing.
While I get the whole Gabriel Xena thing, basically making every strong female character a lesbian was a mistake.
