Heck, Xena’s popularity was even exploited by Subaru when they tried to slyly target lesbian customers: one ad featured a car with the license plate “XENA LVR” (Xena lover). The car on the right has the famous license plate while the one on the left has a gay pride flag adorned on the back bumper.

Possible Lovers
Just about every viewer has pondered whether Xena and Gabrielle are lovers. The series writers deliberately were ambiguous on the entire matter. Although various jokes, innuendo, and other subtle moments hinted at a romantic relationship. This was what fans referred to as “lesbian subtext” or “subtext”. Many “shipping” debated kicked off in the Xena fandom as well and this even spilled over to real-life debates about same-sex sexuality and gay rights.
