There’s no reason for me not to cut my hair short again. It’s not wavy enough at this shoulder length for me to love it, it would only serve as a hat substitute in winter, and I could get an actual hat for that. I’m just too lazy to decide on a short hairstyle.

It’s been said a million times before but being gay is as relevant to your sex life as being straight, which is to say: only partially and definitely privately. Allowing people to assume characters in children’s shows are straight but making statements against their being gay is… so deeply… homophobic.

assuming being gay is inherently about sexual deviance or hypersexuality is homophobic. what is wrong with this fucking website passing the idea that anyone discussing being gay must clarify whether or not sex is involved is progressive. weve really looped right back around to baseline homophobia

mark saltzman said he wrote these two childrens character as in love and gay. everyone (including sesame street) wants to focus on that relationship as being overtly sexual and inappropriate for children, because that is classic homophobia. how is the response “this is dismissive of people who dont have sex” instead of “this is a homophobic line weve been fed for ages because homophobes dont believe we can really feel love for one another, just lust”
