Juhani Jedi Knight
Juhani was a Cathar female and a Knight in the Jedi Order during the Jedi Cival War. Guhani grew up on the planet Taris after her family escaped the assault on their homeworld during the Mandalorian Wars. In addition experiencing great hardship and xenophobic discrimination, Juhani was sold into slavery after the death of her parents in order to pay off their debts. Juhani was eventually discovered to be Force-sensitive by the Jedi Knight Revan, and freed from her servitude. She then made her way to the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine and was accepted for Jedi training by Jedi Master Quatra.
Juhani appears in BioWare's 2003 action role-playing video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and is the first ever lesbian character who was written for the Star Wars Universe.
Goran Beviin and Medrit Vasur
Goran Beviin was a human male Mandalorian commando, a bounty hunter, and a contract killer active under the New Republic and into the early years of the Galactic Alliance. in 24 ABY, Goran was on Nar Shaddaa when he met a man named Udelen, who turned out to be a vanguard for an invading extragalatic species, the Yuuzhan Vong. The Mandalorians made s deal with the Yuuzhan Vong, becoming a hired hand for the Yuuzhan Vong's ensuring attack on the galaxy. However, after Goran and the Mandalorians disobeyed an order to capture a Jedi named Kubariet on New Holgha, the Mandalorians began working against the Yuuzhan Vong. Goran fought in the Yuuzhan war alongside Kubariet and afterward, settled down on his farm on the plant Mandalore with his new husband Medrit Vasur. He was one of Boba Fett's most trusted lieutenants, and was once called upon to be interim Mandalore while Boba Fett was away. In 41 ABY, Goran helped Boba Fett in the training of Jedi Knight Jaina Solo to defeat her Sith Lord brother, Darth Caedus. Although Goran's line of work meant that he was often away from long stretches while Medrit remained on Mandalore their long, happy marriage spanned from well before 25 ABY until after 40 ABY: early in the Yuuzhan Vong War, they also adopted Dinua Jeban, a fourteen-year-old Mandalorian war orphan.
Goran and Medrit both feature in the comic Boba Fett: A Practical Man
Queer Representation
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker made franchise history by featuring a kiss between two queer characters. Commander Larma D'Acy kisses her pilot wife Wrobie Tycein in a celebration after the Resistance defeat the First Order in the films final act. Although fans were happy to see some LGBTQ+ representation, this was slammed by other fans for being the bare minimum.
Fans were also disappointed by Finn's love interest. Finn formed a close bond with New Republican pilot Poe Dameron and this had fans desperately hoping the two would eventually have a romantic bond. Unfortunately Finn and Poe did not have the romantic bond that fans were hoping for, as Finn's character confessed his love for Rey. Actor Oscar Isaac who plays Poe Dameron even said in an interview "Personally, I kind of hoped and wished that maybe that would've been taken further in the other films, but I don't have control" Oscar Isaac said, "It seemed like a natural progression but sadly enough it's a time when people are too afraid. I think, of... I don't know what. But if they would've been boyfriends, that would have been fun."
There are a few fan theories that suggests Rey's character could be asexual and/or aromantic due to her lack of attraction to those around her, but this has not been confirmed by writers.
Lastly Mark Hamill who plays Luke Skywalker had said in an interview @But now fans are writing and asking these questions, 'I'm being bullied in school.. I'm afraid to come out'. They say to me 'Could Luke be gay?' I'd say it is meant to be interpreted by the viewer" Mark Hamill told The Sun "If you think Luke is fay, of course he is. You should not be ashamed of it. Judge Luke by his character, not by who he loves."
