actually this is what the captain wants to see in his gay lover, mulan

Still waiting on the tragic romance version of Mulan, where they don’t get together at the end because falling in love with boy-Mulan helped Shang finally come to terms with being gay.

I’d also take the version where he ends up with Mulan’s horny grandma instead. Either or.
