I shall take my Twitter rant about this topic over to IFWT. This has me LIVID!! Let me be clear that this is solely MY opinion, by the way, not that of the entire blog. Let me also make it clear that I am 100 THOUSAND percent all for gay rights. I have many gay and lesbian friends, I don’t think they’re any different than anyone else but THIS IS RIDICULOUS! “Let us teach tolerance of those that are different,” the petition’s description reads. “Let Sesame Street and PBS Kids be a big part in saving many worthy lives.” Why should Sesame’s demographic…which is 2 to 5 year olds…be seeing things like that? Are they then going to think that any 2 males that live together are an item??? This will do nothing but confuse young, impressionable minds. Continue after the jump.

Aside from just confusing them…it will have them thinking about things they have no business thinking about at that age. 2 to 5 year olds don’t need to know ANYTHING about marriage/love…whether it’s gay or straight!! Learn about numbers, colors, cookies (LOL), getting along with all races…things that pertain to their age!! What does who you’re dating, who you marry, etc have to do with that?? Check out an interview here with the petition’s creator who t(obviously) thinks this needs to happen. What do you guys think?? Take the poll and let us know!
