Why haven’t the producers of Sesame Street denied the fact that Bert and Ernie are gay?

youre a jerk. you should be ashamed of yourself for bashing a SIMPLE childrens show like sesame street. kids wouldnt care even if they were.

You again, I have to ask myself if you are secretly gay, since you seem to be so concerned about it! By the way, puppets aren’t sexual creatures, and neither are children perv.

Why would children care about the sexuality of a puppet?? Why should you care since they are puppets that do not make any inferences to sexuality?? Children and the rest of us love SS, and it is a big plus since it is educational. However, I think YOU need to stop watching SS since it gets you so worked up.

What????? These are puppets……….PUPPETS not people. Even my daughter who is 4 years old knows that puppets and stuffed animals are different from humans and just stuffed with fluff. She knows that there’s no sexuality involved with Sesame Street! I grew up being “brainwashed” by Sesame Street and the thought that they are supposed to be gay never even crossed my mind. I thought of them as brothers. Brothers live together like roomates and so do some straight as an arrow guys in real life. Gosh – does this mean I’m a lesbian – after all – I shared a room with 2 other girls in college! Maybe it’s my own horrendous example that will lead people astray. I really think that when they put Sesame Street out there – that was not their intention – please cite your sources. When Sesame Street starts talking about the gay lifestyle, removing any reference to marriage and talking about all kinds of “families” and how it’s no different from anyone else’s lifestyle – like they are trying to do with the textbooks and curriculum in my state and giving Ernie and Bert children of their own – then I will agree with you. Yeah – forget Sesame Street – the battle is for our public schools and that is a much greater concern. Don’t get me wrong – I love homosexuals just the same – but I’m teaching my children a worldview that is NOT what the militant homosexuals are trying to get into schools with their Rainbow curriculum and other methods. Yes – accept and love the people. Treat their lifestyle like it’s no different, has no negative consequences and is just another wonderful alternate way they can choose to live too? No. Parents have the exclusive rights to worldview training when it comes to their own children. Let’s not leave that to militant homosexuals. If eveyone was one – it would only take one generation for the entire human race to go extinct. There is something special and God ordained about the male-female union – no baby has ever been conceived without the fusion of male and female cell counterparts. Even when you do a clone – the original cells came from that union. So, I’m not a hater and not predjudiced. I just really believe that there are huge differences between the lifestyles and I too have a right to believe my lifestyle is the best option. I have the right to train my children to love people and not necessarily agree with everything that they do and how they choose to live.

The fact that Bert and Ernie are gay? Huh? What program are you watching?
All of the characters except the people charcters on Sesame Street are represented as children. Bert and Ernie just live in the same place, that does not make them gay. THey are children.
Sesame Street probably do not own up to or deny this silly idea, because it is irrelevent to them. People are going to see what they would like to see. If you feel that they are gay, okay, that is fine, but that does not make it true.
Sesame Street is a wonderful program for young and old. There is not dangerous messages being delivered by Sesame Street.
Ashamed? Are you serious? Sesame Street has been around forever and helped children learn, helped them not be afraid of monsters, helped to help others, helped them in so many ways. Ashamed I think not.
If you as a parent decide that you do not want your child to watch Sesame Street, that is acceptable. However to state that Sesame Street is brainwashing your child, I wonder where exactly you are at when Sesame Street is on? Is it not the parent’s choice to watch or not watch certain programs.
If you feel so strongly about the ideas that you perceive are being presented on Sesame Street, do not watch it.
But do not think that simply because you feel as though your thoughts are truth, that they really are.
People like you are the ones that are ruining great shows. You are taking this great great thing intertwining it with your issues, and saying it is bad. There is no brainwashing. There is no pro-gay message, Bert and Ernie are children in this program.
You should be ashamed of yourself for sabotaging a wonderful program.

So much anger over homosexuality!
I think your in denial, so why don’t you just come out of the closet and join the rest of the world.
