I'm wondering how many parents realize that there 'may' be a hidden agenda at work?

While I can understand your concern (after all, to young children these characters are 'people'), I have to question the motivation of those who would attempt to assign a 'sexual orientation' to a puppet in a children's show.

I sure miss the days when kid's puppets were just puppets and sex was for adults.

I agree with Smokin Joe. If you “look” hard enough, you can read something into anything. I’d be very surprised if there is any ulterior motive to this comment by the puppet. The Homosexual lobby is just looking to get reactions.

Agreed. Especially if you have to dig down so deep as the original article does to use obscure slang terms that 99.999% of the audience would never know. "Mo" = gay? Really? I've heard of "Mo" being shorthand for Maurice or Mohamed, but never as slang for gay.

When the lavender mafia detects homosexual undertones with their “gaydar”, it’s all the rage for the media to carry the meme.

But when some conservative then discusses what was already brought to the media by homosexuals (like the notion that Tinky Winky or whatever the purple teletubby was called), THEN it is all guffaws at the “homophobic” conservative (Christian?) who “thinks” that he sees gay undertones where they are not. And that’s just for REPEATING a claim made by snickering homosexuals.

Don’t take the bait.

Ask these grown men why they are watching programming geared for those who have not entered primary school yet, especially given their contempt for “breeders”.
