Love that,'” Wheeler said. “I didn't expect it to blow up.” For those who have followed the long-running animated franchise, it was probably no surprise that Velma is a lesbian. Fans have heralded her as a queer icon, and previous Scooby-Doo writers and producers have tried to depict her as such for at least 20 years.
While in Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo! and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Velma is portrayed as a lesbian, here she's better described as bisexual or pansexual. Apparently, she has crushes on both Daphne and Fred in the show, and her feelings for them are discussed early on.
Mystery Incorporated, has directly stated that Velma and Marcie Fleach are an official couple after the timeline resets in Come Undone, and even stated that Velma was a closeted lesbian before that.
Mystery Incorporated, Velma is in a romantic relationship with Shaggy, much to the distaste of Scooby-Doo.
One of the biggest criticisms of Velma is that it is racist and promotes division and hate. Many have taken to social media to voice their opinions and call for a boycott of the show. Velma's latest episodes also face criticism for their depiction of men.
The two appeared to have chemistry again, but ultimately Velma realized that she no longer had romantic feelings for Shaggy. Shaggy was upset at first, but the two quickly reconciled and became friends again.
She responded that while she didn't “know about a relationship on the side,” there was a “steamy” kiss scene that was cut. “It was an actual kiss between Daphne and Velma that got cut,” Gellar said. “I feel like the world wants to see it, but I don't know where it is.”
Now, with the forthcoming animated film Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo!, Velma's preference for girls has finally been confirmed … and she even gets a girlfriend in the form of glamorous new character Coco Diablo.
VelMarcie is the femslash ship between Velma Dinkley and Marcie Fleach from the Scooby-Doo fandom.
The new movie, which was directed by Audie Harrison, leaves no doubt as to her sexuality.

In Ruby and Spears' original series bible, Fred and Shaggy are each 17 years old, Daphne is 16, and Velma is 15. For the purposes of this series, the kids were made roughly the same age: 16-17 in season 1, and 17-18 in season 2. Casey Kasem provides the voice of Shaggy Rogers' father, Colton Rogers.
For Velma, the series has been marketed as an adult animated comedy. So their target audience is those 18 and older. According to HBO Max, the mature rating is also due to sexual situations and violence. If you've seen the trailer, there's talk of murder, drinking, and drugs.
After reading it, Fred loses his misogynistic perspective on women and begins realizing his behaviour was wrong. He also gains a crush on Velma, but Velma no longer has a crush on him due to witnessing his immature and selfish personality.
But Velma being gay isn't just something in queer people's minds. In addition to her funny comments in the 1970s, creators have been trying to portray Velma as openly gay for decades. Take the hit live-action Scooby-Doo movie, for instance.
