Ugh, they really need to come up with their own mascots as opposed to trying to get characters who aren't even remotely gay. Same happened to Bugs Bunny for dressing in women's clothing to deter Elmer Fudd (because this particular method was supposed to be funny) and Spongebob because... well, it's Spongebob I suppose. He's just a big child really though. :p

I didn't know that puppets could have a sexual orientation?
You haven't seen Avenue Q live then!

Actually no I don't think I have. That being said, puppets are inanimate objects. Possessing neither the will nor the "mechanics" involved in such orientation. Now...people can always ascribe orientation to puppets, but puppets themselves cannot experience these things. In this way I think it's unfair for someone to push their beliefs onto others. In this case. people are forcing their views onto puppets. Though that's just my take on it.
Hah, the Avenue Q thing was more of a joke; it's basically an adult version of The Muppets and there was a puppet sex scene in the performance! It wasn't explicit or anything of course, more for the comedi value of it all but even still.
Anyroad, nono, I agree with you all the way. Just as a few others have mentioned as well, the target audience for this programme shouldn't even know what sex is for the most part and yes; children that young haven't yet hit puberty so therefore they don't exactly have a sexuality as a result nor need it be of any concern to them! Geez, I bet half of us wish that we were still just as innocent, huh.

Yes! Thank god. I don't want to see people changing one of my favourite childhood shows. Besides, they're just puppets for crying out loud! Why do these gay activists really care about this so much!?
Well they made the cast of MLP lesbians, it seems only fair they'd have some gays in those kid shows too.
Are you really going to bring this up? You're lying and your trolling is very obvious:
Why would yo be so upset by such a suggestion?

They most certainly did not!
Just Rainbow Dash.
For all we know they are asexual. There is not enough solid evidence to prove otherwise. It doesn't matter anyways. Would you think of them any different just because of their sexual orientation?
Well uh, no, Rarity is obviously straight, as is spike, if you count that.

Ehh... I just want to say, I as I stated earlier, don't think they should marry, but my views on the subject are still very different to many of the people here who think childrens TV show characters shouldn't have sexual orientation, I think they should under the right circumstances, I just don't think Bert & Ernie should marry because there was never any romantic relationship between the two

I think there was an episode or two where Bert and Ernie were in the bathtub together.
You know just playin' with bath toys, nothing gay, don't mean they should get married.

Alright seriously, they don't need to get married.

I hate to argue, but its Spike that is in love with Rarity, not the other way around.

What? I was referring to Rarity's affection for prince blueblood or whatever he was called

So... just because they are two male characters who are friends they are instantly gay?

Good job stereotyping that internet.
I agree. That's as bad as stereotyping a gay person. Two guys just can't be roommates?

Maybe they're afraid that they're not really accepted yet by society, even though they usually are or are at least treated indifferently to anyone else?

It reminds me of when Extra Credits was talking about Kenji and Persona 4. Not every character needs to be different for the sake of being different. That's just insulting.
