Yes, I LOVED that about Toph and the fathers. I wonder if I should write some sort of letter, "Dear Nick, as a mother of two young children with whom I can't wait to share my love of ATLA and Korra, it is so refreshing to me to see the representation of a family structure outside of the relentless conservative heteronormativity of most children's media. I have long loved the racial diversity we get to see on both shows and any step towards showing the real diversity of families of our world or the wide range of life options I want my children to believe in for themselves is a step I am proud to see Nick taking. PS triple bonus points if Korra kisses Asami in Season Four, Love, Me." They can tell I'm serious and not being sarcastic if I say "diversity", right?
