I don't know why the hell this came up in my head but I was trying to think of a case where homosexuality was handled or even mentioned in a kids show, and I couldn't. Considering that the characters do tend to deal with relationships and such, it does seem slightly odd the more I look into it. On the one hand I can see how it might confuse a person if they are used to seeing guys and girls and then see guys and guys (though I doubt it would turn everyone gay), though also I can't help shaking the feelings it's saying "Well kids, here's the NORMAL way of doing things" ...
At the end of the day, I'm not homosexual and I also aren't homophobic so these things literally make no difference to me. Just thought it's an interesting ethical discussion point.
Soo discuss.
