Oh, believe me, gay and trans furries love Bluey. It's pretty much our fav thing, it's so insanely popular with the LGBT+ crowd.



Ok? My Little Pony was in the same boat. Doesn't really change anything.


It's insanely popular and I certainly don't want to stop anyone from enjoying it :)

Was it pandering when My Little Pony had a lesbian couple?


Never watched it, my point was another group enjoying something doesn't really effect what another group gets out of it.

For me it depends on how it's presented. The characters shouldn't announce what they like to fuck. That's jarring, pandering, and very inappropriate.

No idea how it was portrayed so I can't say.


>The characters shouldn't announce what they like to fuck.

Has that happened in a kids show you've seen?


No. The shows I screen never say or portray anything sexual.

They will find out that out on their own, without the help of kid shows.

I have no idea what the character's sexual preferences are and I don't want to know.

Curiously, how was it presented that they were lesbian, and who was lesbian? One of the ponies? lol.


Wait, why did you bring up characters on children's show announcing their sexual proclivities then?

Are you just getting angry about a hypothetical? Help me understand where you're coming from please


I'm not angry? And I didn't bring it up, you brought up the lesbian in MLP.

How was it presented in the show?


Why did you bring up whether the characters want to fuck?


Because that's what your sexual preference essentially is.

Why is it relevant in a kid's show?


There's so much more to relationships and human connection and even romantic relationships than that.

Get your mind out of the gutter.


Connections can be made in kids show without referencing sexual preferences, that's my point.

I just fail to see why you need to make a pony a lesbian in a kids show.

Why bring that up at all?


> Why bring that up at all?

So that it reflects the real world, perhaps? Same reason shows have families with moms and dads in them.


Why bring up couples at all?

Are the heterosexual couples going to tell the kids about the sex they're having?


That's why I said it's how it depends how it's presented, and you never explained so I don't know if it was appropriate or not.

Many kids shows I enjoyed never had any couples or parents in them, which avoids that altogether.


That's really great, good talk, buddy.


You too, pal.


Thanks :)
