What cartoon characters are lesbian?

[Kurovski]

The Fundies don't seem to care.

Does this mean you gal-gal-lovin' types are headed for Heaven, or does this mean the guys on PTL are just boner-obsessed?

I think Daria has a time-share on the Isle of Lesbos. And you?

[chicagojoe]

1. The girl with the glasses on Scooby Doo?

[clovis29]

2. Betty Rubble

[chicagojoe]

7. Really?

[Kurovski]

9. Are you sure you aren't confusing her with

Rosie O Donnell?

Edited: because I'm a freaking idiot.

[bettyellen]

10. i always thought wilma... i mean fred? you know she had something on

the side.
i did once have a flintstone style theme dream complete with the mastadon shower....
but nothing much happened.... i did not get invited to the flintstone/ rubble key party.

[Kurovski]

12. HeHeHe!

You're freakaliciously-funny.

[CanuckAmok]

11. you mean THIS Betty Rubble? I'm SO there!

Imagine the movie "Bound" with Betty Rubble and Daphne from Scooby Doo... now there's a summer blockbuster!

[Kurovski]

13. Now we know where Condi Rice

got her hairdo!

[Kurovski]

18. "...now there's a summer blockbuster!"

In keeping with the Flinstones theme you have to call it a "rockbuster".

Which would work especially well for the guys into that stuff.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

3. aeon flux chick was a freak.

you know she would swing.

[LoZoccolo]

4. Velma from Scooby Doo, Peppermint Patty, and her friend Marcy. n/t

[Deja Q]

61. Marcy was Pattie's "special friend".

:evilgrin:

[KitchenWitch]

5. Peppermint Patty and Marcie from the Peanuts

[Kurovski]

6. "Sir" indeed.

Chuck Schultz just spelled it out for us, didn't he?

[KitchenWitch]

8. yes he did!

[Kurovski]

15. God, I've always loved that Mr. Schultz.

Good ol' Charlie Brown.

[Jamastiene]

14. Absolutely

I was going to mention her. I always wished that little dance she does would become a real life fad. Dunno if it ever did, but it's cool.

[Biased Liberal Media]

21. See, I thought that...even while growing up

on the flip side, I always had a hunch, even as a child that Vanity Smurf was gay.

[Kurovski]

16. Who was the freind of Brenda Starr?

The one with the beanie.

I knew she was "different" before I even knew what a lesbian was.

But then again, I was a seven year old boy who read Brenda Starr comics.

Oh, lord, the grief I caused my poor father.

[KitchenWitch]

17. I also think Buttercup of the Power Puff Girls is gay

[Kurovski]

20. Yeah

She's got the most "girlpower" attitude. ;-)

[UdoKier]

19. Not Daria!

I love her! I would totally want to go out with a girl like her!

Velma on Scooby-Doo, I can deal with, but at least let Daria be "flexible".

[Kurovski]

22. Well, now, so would a lot of other GIRLS.

Don't be so selfish. :-)

But take heart, we're just spreading "vicious" rumors.

[bettyellen]

23. you're forgetting wonder woman? wasn't she from an all girl island?

i was wonder woman for halloween once... and guys wrere asking about the island......

[Kurovski]

26. What, like asking for directions? Boys are so weird.

You're right, the comic book version is lesbianic.

But I always felt Linda (?), the actress who played WW on the TEEVEE, was firmly on the het side of the fence. Like way out there in the middle of the pasture.

[bettyellen]

29. middle of the pasture? i'd ask you to explain but,

we might get locked, so use your judgement.

[Kurovski]

30. You know, on the Kinsey scale.

Way over to the front of the Heterosexual line.

No chance of hopping the fence into the Rubyfruit Jungle.

I'm trying hard to keep this post unlocked, so bare with me. ;-)

[HEyHEY]

24. Ahem

[Kurovski]

25. Betty is looking rather fondly at Veronica.

and it does appear that Veronica has been somehow pleasantly surprised by something or other.

Hmmm, you make an excellent case, HEyHEY.

[bettyellen]

27. okay, i came in secondplace in a Veronica look alike contest once, so

that is a little weird because i'm betty and i almost won a trip to hollywood to screentest, or "do" veronica. so i am a one woman lesbian cartoon couple! beat that!

[Kurovski]

32. You almost did Veronica.

What more needs to be said?

[bettyellen]

37. i like to think there's a little veronica

in all of us.



and somewhere out there is video of me as veronica giggling with my matching dress and hairband. it was shown on ET.

[Kurovski]

38. What part of Veronica?

DON'T ANSWER!

So you are a star! DU is full of you Hollywood types, no wonder we're getting attacked by the Right-Wing Media. :-)

[bettyellen]

42. you always thought veronica was a repug?

just because she has a rich daddy and three boyfriends, two of whom are morons, as well as betty on a string, she can't help it, she was born that way. she hangs at the edge of the pasture. but she has a big heart.
and she's actually a dem. betty's the freeper.

[Kurovski]

45. No, The Righties have been blasting Hollywood

and Democratic Underground has had snide comments from the New York Times and the Chi Sun-Times, among others.

Wow! you sure did your homework when you auditioned for Veronica.

Are you sure Veronica wouldn't go Green?

[bettyellen]

46. I'm not sure Veronica wouldn't do anything.....

that's why you have to love her.

[RadicalMom]

28. She-Ra. Princess of Power..I worked with her and there were always

rumors. And I never saw her nail He-Man.

[Kurovski]

36. She-ra wouldn't waste her time

on a weakling like He-Man.

I suspect she might've been needin' a heaping helping of female stamina.

[TheMightyFavog]

39. I don't think He-Man liked the ladies, if you get my drift.

End of Line.

[RadicalMom]

51. Yeah, I always wondered about that. I think he was just narcissistic.

[DrWeird]

63. She-Ra is He-Man's sister.

Like, duh. They said so in the first episode.

Of course, He-Man's flaming gay, and they say it's genetic.

[Kurovski]

64. That's no excuse for at least half the states.

It's the damn evil gay thing that's got to be addressed!

[bettyellen]

31. now what about inter species

action cartoons?
i just had a high school flash back where we are watching these really bad cartoon pornos. it'a all animals, but it's not exactly fritz the cat. more like porky pig, but not as well lit, if you know what i mean.

[Kurovski]

34. Now don't go falling into the Fundie trap

of equating beastiality with gay stuff!

But Miss Piggy swings both ways.

[Kurovski]

49. Not as well lit?

It took me three reads to finally get that, but I'm an idiot.

In fact, I'm such an idiot I could be president of the United States one day.

Have you ever done stand up? As in comedy.

[jdots]

33. Jimmy Olson,Peanuts,My Little Pony and Dilbert

I could be wrong about all of them except Dilbert.

[Kurovski]

35. Weren't there many little ponies?

Are you speaking of the Lavendar one?

And how is it you've come to be so certain about Dilbert? HMMmmmmm?

And to change course, doesn't Strawberry Shortcake sound like a Lesbian bedroom technique?

EDIT: To add "HMMmmmmm?"

[Biased Liberal Media]

79. There are 3,208 ponies

LOL, well not sure really but there are a TON!!! I would know...our daughter is obsessed with them...oyyyy

[TyeDye75]

40. Let me think

April O'Neil and Urma from Turtles
Misty from Pokemon

[Seabiscuit]

41. Little Lulu

[Kurovski]

43. Actually

I think her and Little Lotta are shackin' up somewhere outside of Minneapolis.

[bettyellen]

44. what about crazy cat? wasn't she more like a tranny than an actual

female cat. an ignatz... hmm. i could never figure them out.
not that there's anything wrong with that.

mods, stop me.

[Kurovski]

48. And Superman's Bizzaro World.

Wouldn't EVERYONE be gay there? I mean, everyone but the people who would normally be gay?

We've given Jerry Falwell lot's to chew on here.

In fact, I daresay he isn't doing half as good a job as he thinks he is.

[Bridget Burke]

54. Krazy may have been a "he" ....

Like Ignatz Mouse & Offisa Pup--the other sides of the triangle. Here's a deep examination of gender issues in Coconino County (race issues as well--George Herriman was African American):

www.iath.virginia.edu/crocker/

... be not harsh with "Krazy" -- He is but a shadow himself, caught in the web of this mortal skein. We call him "cat", We call him "crazy", Yet he is neither. At some time he will ride away to you, people of the twilight. His password will be the echoes of a vesper bell, his coach a zephyr from the West -- Forgive him, for you will understand him no better than we who linger on this side of the pale.

[Frozen Hamster]

47. Well, anime is crawling with gay/bi female characters

Haruka & Michiru (don't know their names in the American dub) from Sailor Moon were a couple in the original Japanese version, but were made in to cousins in the American dub, the fundies would have blown a fuse if a children's show showed a happy gay couple.
Utena and Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena definitely had something going on between them, and the movie pretty much fleeched out that relationship.

[Kurovski]

50. Uh-oh

I just now read the "Ok, the fun's over" post from Skinner.

While I argue that this is a thread about politics and sexuality, do what you must, dear hardworking mods.

[arcos]

52. Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune...

in the anime Sailor Moon.

[Kurovski]

53. Sailor Uranus

would be a pirate of sorts, I gather? BUT I don't know.

[arcos]

58. no...

[Guy Fawkes]

55. They were originaly men...

I like how they went from being gay men to being lesbians when they transformed...

[arcos]

57. hrmm, no I don't think so...

Haruka (Sailor Uranus) was always a tomb boy, in fact, the other sailors were in love with her because they thought she was a cute boy. Michiru (Sailor Neptune) however, was always very feminine.

[kitkatrose]

67. No. It was the Sailor Stars.

And I think that was a big screw up when they brought it over to America. Just like making Haruka and Michiru cousins, but leaving in all the lovey dovey crap. :puke:

[Chovexani]

83. I think both of you are confused.

Which is understandable, considering how long the show went on and how badly mangled most of it was by censorship.

Sailormoon Sailorstars (Season 5, the last one) was never commercially translated and brought to America. AFAIK, it hasn't been licensed by either ADV or CWI, who hold the rights to Sailormoon Classic & R, and Sailormoon S and SuperS respectively.

The Sailor Starlights were female (as all sailor senshi are), and came from outside the solar system after their planet was destroyed by Sailor Galaxia. They came to Earth to find their Princess, Kakyuu, and figured it would be easier to find a woman if they became idol singers. So they magically changed themselves in a boy band called the Three Lights (neither the manga or the anime goes into exactly how, but the most accepted fanwank says it's connected with their henshin powers as sailor senshi). In their guise as the Three Lights, they were physically male, but whenever they went into battle, their henshin sequences turned them back into their female forms. IOW, this was for plot reasons and not the result of a translation screwup/censorship, and was present in the original manga (though the manga downplayed it greatly, as the Starlights were very, very minor characters that basically had a one-shot "guest appearance" in one of the last tankubon).

However, there were characters who suffered inadvertant gender reassignment surgery in the English translations in the name of avoiding controversy. In the very first season, two of Queen Beryl's generals, Kunzite and Zoicite, were male lovers. In the English DiC dub, the very effeminate Zoicite was made female. Similarly, the even queenier Fisheye of SuperS' Amazon Trio was also turned into a female in the CWI dub--largely due to a plotline that had him in love with Mamoru, our heroine's boyfriend. I didn't watch the SuperS dub, mainly because I hate Chibi-usa no matter what language she's speaking, but from what I've heard there was another minor change. In one episode, Usagi goes to Michiru because she wants to learn how to be more elegant, so Haruka & Michiru invite Usagi, Mamoru and Chibi-usa to a tea ceremony. It was performed by a little boy who was considered to be a sort of child prodigy in it. Well the Monster-of-the-Week ended up attacking the kid, Sailormoon saved him, and at the end of the episode they ended up coming back to another tea ceremony. Only the kid was so blinded by Sailormoon's fabulousness that he decided to dress in drag as her. :P

Needless to say, from what I heard the kid was made a girl in the dub...:puke:

[Lydia Leftcoast]

85. There's a whole genre of soft-core gay male porn for teenage girls

in manga. It features very feminine-looking teenage boys who lust after each other.

I've heard of lesbian porn for straight men, but I'd never heard of gay male porn for female readers before I went to Japan.

[devilgrrl]

56. Veronica and Sabrina from the Archie's

silly question btw

[TroubleMan]

59. The Powerpuff Girls

nt.

[hollywood926]

60. Sandy Cheeks from Spongebob Squarepants...

she is a lesbian squirrel.

[Kurovski]

62. From Texas!

How come Focus on the Family, or whatever crackpot, crybaby group it is whining about Spongebob, not calling out Sandy?

Fundies dig the girl-on-girl action! Oh, yes they do.

[ScreamingMeemie]

65. I think Lucy VanPelt had issues with her sexuality....

Who's with me?

[Kurovski]

66. I was pondering posting that very thought.

Lucy was very, very frustrated in many ways.

I wouldn't doubt a bit of unfocused experimentation on her part.

Good call, report her to Focus on the Family!

HEY YOU GUYS, Mike Malloy is talking about this very thing.
He's asking why don't they talk about the Lesbians, saying the Fundie men are obsessing on sex with men.

[kitkatrose]

68. Why, haven't you heard?

Being a lesbian is a beautiful thing that should be nurtured, while being a gay man is dirty, sinful, and disgusting. :crazy:

[JohnKleeb]

69. to be fair

The fundies are just as bad to lesbians. Robertson is always calling feminists lesbians. I do agree that rank and file homophobes are worst to gay guys though, and many are aroused by girl on girl action. I agree with the suggestion of Velma from Scobby Doo but youre talking to a guy who has no gaydar and prides himself on it.

[Kurovski]

73. They are.

But the focus of these campaigns against gay men, by men is suspect.

which is the whole point.

These guys are closet cases or simply cannot deal with the little bisexual thoughts that may occasionally appeal to them.

Why else would they believe homosexuality is a choice, if they themselves did not have to choose between woman or men?

With many of the fundies obsessed with gays, either they are bisexual, or they are in the closet.

[JohnKleeb]

76. of course, they mostly talk about guys

I agree, likely closeted cases or bis. Rank and file gay haters though who are guys, I admit are generally like "WOW TWO GIRLS MAN, THATS HOT", but they are also the kind who are like "I'D KICK A GAY GUY's ASS."

[Kurovski]

78. Again, I will say that

people who like two women can also "like" one man.

Umm, bisexuals, for instance.

People who are secure and contented in their sexuality don't care what anyone else does. And no, I'm not including criminal sexuality here.

Being bisexual by definition means you are not homosexual. but the fundies don't want anyone to dwell on that.

Fleeting thoughts and feelings are dark demons to be conquered, in their view. And some choose to conquer it by knocking other folks around.

I suppose unresolved issues about sexual abuse would also account for some violence. But getting near a man, even if you've been raped, is so taboo and shameful to some that the attitude keeps people from getting the medical help that could free them.

[Misunderestimator]

71. Well, she WAS a control freak...

and she sure can knock a guy off his feet...

[Misunderestimator]

70. Betty, Veronica, Wilma, Pebbles, any female rabbit opposite Bugs Bunny,

Superwoman, Batwoman, anyone ever portrayed by Sigourney Weaver, Peppermint Patty, Lucy (though I think she's bi), Lois Lane (come on... could she really not have known his secret identify if she were that interested in him), Maggie and Sally Simpson and Marge, their inadequate role model, Josie and the Pussycats (they didn't call them that for nothing), Jane Jetson and Judy (it runs in the family, doncha know), Penelope Pitstop (nothing like a chick in a racecar)...

... and the two siamese cats from 101 Dalmations

Did I miss anyone?

[JohnKleeb]

72. Sally Simpson, who?

How can you tell Maggie is a lesbian when she's only a baby? Sorry just curious.

[Kurovski]

74. Oh, you can tell...

the holy water sizzles at the baptism.

Lisa Simpson, No way!

[JohnKleeb]

75. Lisa is hetero

I think but what if youre not baptised, remember Maggie has never been baptised. I dont know who this Sally Simpson character is.

[Kurovski]

77. That's right, it was a failed attempt on flanders' part.

There is no Sally Simpson.

At least not yet.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

80. Ernie and Bert? I know they're not cartoon characters.

[Kurovski]

82. They're not lesbians, either.

But I'm sure they're on a Right-Wing hit list somewheres.

However, RWingers did try to bring PBS down. And now, we have to deal with Tucker Carlson as they begin their twelve year plan to do just that.

[Chovexani]

81. Japanese animation has an entire genre.

Yuri. It's a sort of tongue-in-cheek name given to the genre, because of the prevalence of lesbians in anime named Yuri. :P Another name for it is shoujo-ai ("girl's love").

Yuri's opposite number is Yaoi/shounen-ai ("boy's love"), which is male-male stories.

[Bombtrack]

84. Mystique (X-Men animated series)

weird that she only dated some old fogey mutant. You'd think that someone who had the power to look as hot as anyone could imagine would be all lesbian pimpin like Ellen.

[TheMightyFavog]

86. The Baroness from G.I. Joe.

Quire obvious.

I think Scarlet (IIRC, she was either a tanker or truck driver) also was at least bisexual.



But as I said in the dumbest argument I ever had on the Internet a few years ago, Lady Jaye was strictly hetero. Flint and Duke were her personal boy-toys.
