LGBTQAIP+

Several of the characters of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power are members of official or post-series romantic relationships. Additionally, characters in the show may identify under LGBT+ sexualities, romanticisms, or genders.

Some of them that are not confirmed to be but are established to be in the spectrum of a certain sexuality can be anywhere in that spectrum. For instance, Entrapta, "has had a lot of boyfriends and girlfriends," meaning she is confirmed bisexual, but the label is not exclusive; she could be anything that encompasses being bisexual - pansexual, omnisexual, and so on. She also may be biromantic, bi-physical, or anything that encompasses attraction to at least two genders.

However, a character confirmed to be only a certain sexuality, such as a lesbian, cannot be head-cannoned as a straight, against their sexuality, as this is lesbian erasure and homophobia.
