In 2017, everyone can be LGBTQ - including a fictional character from an independent movie most people have never heard of. Mashable argues that the meme has become a way for the community to joke about “hackneyed coming out plots, corny LGBTQ tropes, cheesy gay design, painfully academic queer theories, and this one time Netflix maybe messed up.” People have taken to Twitter and other social media sites to express their joy at the Badabook becoming an LGBT icon. With the arrival of Pride Month in June, many have deemed the Babadook an icon of the LGBT community. As Vulture writes, the Babadook also prefers dark areas like closets and basements and wears an androgynous long coat and a hat. In October of 2016, users on Tumblr debated whether or not the Babadook is gay, citing the fact that he created a pop-up book about himself to stir up drama. Tumblr Has Debated Whether Or Not It’s Gay As an organization that strongly supports the LGBT community, pride, and more we will work to bring lesbians, gay-men, bisexuals, transgender individuals and allies together to educate the world on issues important to the LGBT community, commemorate our heritage, celebrate our culture and strive for equality.

But many others have a different interpretation.
