Ron Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 WhoBob gave me this idea. Same-sex marriage was legalized in the U.S. in June, and it's becoming more and more normal in the developed world. Good Luck Charlie featured a gay couple some years ago - what if SpongeBob did the same? Everyone seems to think SpongeBob's gay, but I think if the show decided to push the envelope, it'd be more reasonable that Squidward was gay. Thoughts on this? yay or nay? Is it necessary? Unnecessary? If there was to be a gay character, should it be a one-time thing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E.V.I.L. Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 He's dated women so make him bisexual... and don't make a deal of it just have him express interest or date a male Squid Squilliam and then that's that. Then we can sit back, watch, and read all the complaints on OneMillionMoms.com while we happily drink the tears of the "STOP BEING SO POLITICALLY CORRECT!!!?!!!!!!!" crowd. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illiniguy34 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 It'd be quite the twist, I can say that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoBibbles Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 My post is actually a joke but If the creators make Squidward gay, maybe even date with Squilliam, that would be so amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I made different reasons why it's a right thing and a wrong thing. WRONG 1. Spongebob is still a very popular show, doesn't mean controversy will still be had if this actually happens. 2. Spongebob doesn't follow continuity. 3. It RUINS some continuity it has, take Love that Squid for example. RIGHT 1. Make a special kind of episode just for gay rights 2. If this actually happened, this may be the first actual time this show can follow continuity 3. We can learn different aspects of his character.

Space Cowboy Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 If they did make a gay character, it would probably be a one-episode thing unless they make him/her a main/recurring character or put them in the background of future episodes. If Squidward was gay, then pretty much what omair said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still seeing him liking men would be nice. 3. Umm, Squidward can be bisexual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supmandude Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'd say that SpongeBob and Patrick should instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Less_SpongeBob Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Western Cartoons are the only place in this world where romantic relationships don't exist. I'd prefer it not to start here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katniss Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 While I don't have a problem if a cartoon wants to show romance or if a character is gay/bisexual/etc, is this really necessary in SpongeBob? And yes, I'm aware SB has focused on romance before with episodes like Krusty Love and Love that Squid, but those episodes are fairly rare. That being said, if this hypothetically did happen, I wouldn't be up in arms about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye Q. Krabs Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'd be delighted because then Squidiam could become a reality and not just some fun fanfic meme. They deserve each other. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Squidward should come out as Trihexagonicalgender and Mayosexual instead. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm allowed to bring up the show when it's relevant to a conversation, aren't I? People were discussing romance in Western cartoons and if there could be a gay couple and all that. Although, now that I think of it, Raven must be bi. She loves Beast Boy too. Just saying. and this has to do with It's a gay couple in a kids cartoon. They could to the same with Sponge and Pat.
