Welcome to 2007.

I thought they were just confirmed bachelors.

They have no gender because they are puppets, so can't be gay!

"Even though they are identified as male characters and possess many human traits and characteristics (as most Sesame Street MuppetsT do), they remain puppets, and do not have a sexual orientation."

Are they Bi ? By any chance. . .



Bye bye. . .

Ugh....just ugh..

I can't stand the pathetic misappropriation of icons by some daft special interest group as some sad and pathetic attempt to feel more important and represented and relevant. This also goes for the whole 'Cleopatra was black!' nonsense and every embarrassing attempt by the Irish to ingratiate themselves with the Whitehouse by attempting find any tenuous link that they can to claim a president as 'one of our own'.
Just stop it.

Miss Piggy and Kermit seemed to be attracted to each other, though. So they may not be gay, but they could still really, really like each other.

Statement from Sesame Workshop is silly (I know, I know).

They can't have it both ways.
