    IMHO No.
    Let the kids be kids and have a childhood they will have enough crap to deal with and leave the adults debate who marries who.

    ...................................................................................................................................................................

    Sesame Street’s famous cohabitants grace next week’s cover of the New Yorker in homage to the Supreme Court’s votes in support of marriage equality.

    And the wrecking of American culture continues.... next thing they will do is merge a video of the Duke cuddling broke back mtn. style.....no thanks!! Leave our children out of the debate over adult things....let them be kid's and live a happy life.... the drama needs to stay out of their home life... especially leave Burt and Ernie out of the conversation... [shoked]

    ". especially leave Burt and Ernie out of the conversation..." I don't know about that....i have never know good things to come from hiding your head in the sand. Kids, with proper attention, are smarter than you are giving them credit for. Years ago, I knew a 9 year old girl, who could field strip and clean an uzi. (something i have never done) she was raised not to fear guns, but to respect them. When asked by a do-gooder, if she wanted to show it off to her friends, she replied "Are you nuts lady?" And since they are getting the Liberal mindset from schools and facebook anyways, hiding from one other influence will not make any real difference.

    Besides, as Gay Rights spokesmen they fit. After all, they have both know all there is to know about getting stuffed.

    It is the point of the issue...not the "action".

    I haven't been able to watch Sesame Street since a friend and I were goofing off a few years back, with nothing better to do than look at adult toys website, and one of them was in the shape of a rubber ducky, and the product 'description' said it's why Bert was in the bathtub so much...

    Oh man!!....mankissing!!! Can't have folks of the same gender kissing...it's just too gross and icky for adults to cope with...how are the children going to cope with it??? Best pretend that it doesn't happen, and that only gross, icky heterosexual kissing be approved of...:eek:

    Not having a shot at you CRC...just at those who can't cope with showing each other love and affection outside of a limited range of "approved" behaviour.

    I understood that....and get it. The whole thing is just insane.....:rolleyes: I was at a party Saturday, and when leaving, the hostess, one of my best friends, hugged me and said "Kiss me on the mouth.." It's just what we do....there are those that would have a problem with that...I don't keep them in my life....:cool:

    My question is: "APPROVED" by Who.... Who appointed, whomever thinks "THEY" are the PC Police, the PC Police? These folks need to "MIND their OWN BUSINESS" and let the rest of the WORLD, alone, to decide for OURSELVES, what is appropriate for US.....

    I never got a romantic feeling that was depicted from Bert and Ernie's friendship in any of the SS's that I watched.

    Good Heavens! Can't same-gender folks just be friends? Period. No agenda. No spokesperson for this or that?
