Nickelodeon ‘makes history’ with its first ‘gay married’ couple in kids cartoon

Nickelodeon, the American cable and satellite TV network aimed at kids and teens, has introduced its first animated “gay married” couple.

Debuting in The Loud House — a cartoon about Lincoln Loud, an 11-year-old boy with 10 sisters — the scene features a friend coming for a stayover with Lincoln.

Lincoln and his chum, Clyde McBride, have been counting down the time to the sleepover, so perhaps that’s why Lincoln announces: “Time to make history!” — before he opens the door to reveal Clyde and his two dads.

Owned by Viacom Media Network, Nickelodeon targets children ages 2 to 17. It has already introduced a lesbian couple in the 2014 online finale of The Legend of Korra.

Focus on the Family issues analyst Jeff Johnston warned in an earlier interview with LifeSiteNews that LGBTQ narratives and depictions of homosexual parents in children’s TV shows and movies inevitably would increase after the Supreme Court legalized “same-sex” marriage in its June 2015 Obergefell decision.

God will not be mocked. Child-indoctrination of anti-God practices is an abomination to the Lord. Woe to America.

My kids have watched this show but not anymore. It’s a stupid cartoon and the characters are so annoying. Probably is doing this for the ratings.

This may or may not be based on the actual Loud Family.
I recall a documentary about a big family, who had one member that was gay. This was way back around 1970,when it was still rare for that topic to be brought up with any seriousness.
They may have been the first reality show of that kind.

First, the studios have to find out if Obamacare will cover the characters with a pre-existing condition.

I think it was and the homo kid was “celebrated” for his “historic coming out”

And of course, he later becomes a meth addict and HIV positive. Dead with Hep C and HIV by age 50.

What an icon, huh?

Yes ... “An American Family.” It was before my time, but IIRC the homosexual son took his mother to a drag show when she came to visit him in NYC.

Your tax dollars (PBS) at work.

No honorable parent would even allow cable TV in their homes anymore.

Everyone kept asking, how can this family be so open about all this dirty laundry? Some folks just like the attention.
What else can it be?

And how long before they start advising kids that it’s OK to get in the white van with no windows? I say it’s next.

He’s been mocked for 30 years. I can’t believe how patient he is.
