1) Steven Universe is an awesome show, what are you talking about
2) CN literally never airs it outside of new episode premieres despite acting like they love the show so much, God forbid they cut into their 8 hours of Teen Titans Go a day

Not a CN show but another kids show, the Loud House, has an openly gay couple as one of the character's parents, as well as another main character being a girl who has a crush on another girl. It's awesome how far kids shows have come since the 90s.

I, personally, stand with the trans community. We have to stop trying to tell other people how to live their lives. Everybody has a right to seek their own happiness. It's life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, right?

Having said that... cartoon network? Really? Isn't it primarily for kids? There is nothing wrong with being trans. But there is also nothing wrong with having genitals, or with sex. We hide any sexual stuff from kids until at least they're 10 years old, right?

This is like "Disney channel stands with prostate health week" (see? There is nothing wrong with having a prostrate too, but.... does Disney have to tell kids about it?) or "Chuck-E-Cheese is proud to bring awareness of vaginal flora balance" (See? Having a vagina a a correct flora there is totally normal and good too). It'd be different if it were Bacardi, Ford, Chrysler, NFL or UPS. But Disney, Cartoon Network, Pokemon Central, etc? Those are for kids....

They have a reason, albiet an incredibly stupid one. The reason is that by seeing LGBT representation in kids shows tells them that being LGBT is becoming more accepted by society as a whole, and this makes them very, VERY angry.

It's about giving kids some exposure. Having that visibility is a beacon of hope for a child struggling with their own gender identity. Sexuality doesn't really even factor into something like that.

Exactly. Being angry over that because "its putting sex in a kidz show!!!1!!!" is the equivalent of getting mad that a kids show has a married hetero couple in it because by being married it's implied that they do indeed have sex with each other

What Coastal_Elite is actually doing is a direct parallel to people who say that having homosexual couples in a show is exposing children to sexual things when they don't share that concern about heterosexual couples. He's perpetuating the bigoted attitude that anything other than straight and cisgender equals sexually deviant.

Exactly. For example, the gay couple in the Loud House are portrayed the exact same way as any other married parent couple in a kids show besides the fact the kid is adopted.

@OmegaPillow If you think that's bad then I suggest you homeschool him too because he's gonna hear way worse than that on the playground.

I remember being in 4th grade on the playground and all we did was joke about sex and say raunchy shit

Been on that comment thread this afternoon. It's pretty vile. People equating being trans or supporting trans people to supporting pedophilia and mocking the suicide rate (while completely glossing over that maybe they're part of the reason)...truly paragons of moral virtue.

I'll never understand why people are so afraid to just admit certain types of people, who aren't hurting anyone, exist...even IF it wasn't something natural (and i don't personally believe anything LGBT is a 'choice')...what the fuck is acknowledging it hurting? I bet if Nick was tweeting about "National church day" it'd be ok, even though that is fully and completely a personal choice.

I just think its dumb because the channels air very little, if any content that backs up these words.

The closest animation on air with potential trans themes would be Stephen Universe, and like the other poster said, its almost never actually aired. And thats just themes. AFAIK there are no trans characters in any currently airing shows. (I could be wrong though idk) >_>

Lest i get accused of concern trolling, though, I really dont care at the end of the day. I dont watch these channels anymore, but thats just because I dont watch TV. And it doesnt seem any more dumb or hollow than any other attempt to reach out to their audiences, it just sticks out more given the shit show this particular subject always turns into. <_<
