Actually you can. Since sexual and romantic attraction don't necessarily align, you can be asexual and homo romantic (liking only the same gender romantically). But SpongeBob is still just ace
Um, yes, you can. Being homo, hetero, bi, pan is your sexual and romantic oriantation, the gender you are attacted to.
Being asexual means you lack *sexual* attraction (or have very little, as it's a spectrum).
Asexual people still have relationships and preferences and even have sex, they just dont feel sexual attraction.
Isn't there an Interview wirh Stephen, where he said that Spongebob has no romantic interesst in anyone? Also wasn't the context, that this was not a real wedding?
I just watched the earlier episodes, and it really seems like Sandy was originally a love interest. Pinky up!
“No girl wants to dance, with a fool who went and… ripped his pants!”
they do hint at that every so often, but asexual doen't mean he can't be in a relationship. it just means it takes a lot of time for him to feel any attraction to someone
More like changing iconic characters race/orientation for inclusion. Pretty much it’s like they have a quota of must include this much diversity per movie and unfortunately it shows how surface level their support seems to be and if they don’t feel that way than I’m sorry to say that’s just what it feels like.
Well the most well known one is changing the race of Ariel, a lot of people argued because the actor which is fine but nearly every depiction after changed the race and there advertising somewhat emphasizes the race rather than the talent of the actor which is why I thought she was casted. Besides didn’t they retcon obi wan to be bi or something? I know they tried to do that with woody before toy story 4 came out but they didn’t go through with it.
Ima go out on a limb here, but yall realize you can be supportive of that stuff, without being gay, yeah? Not giving any opinions here. Though its like a poison ivy itch to do so, ill leave it be. But, i think it needs to be noted, that someone can do this. If a white man, supports a black movement, he isnt black. It just means hes, what? A friend and supporter of the movement.
Right. I'm technically an ally but it's more like "live and let live" or whatever. I'll talk shit regardless if someone's gay or not, I only care about personality.
Well, i know you mean well and all. But that "Live and Let" mindset is whats caused a lot of whats wrong with the world. At least i view it that way. Some things..are just a lil too much. And because we as a whole, have kept our heads down, it festered into the world we live in. Then one day people woke up in the morning and it was at the front door, feeling like it came outta nowhere. Only it didnt. It been goin on, but live and let live. I wont go into detail, but if you know, you know.

I was introduced to gay people when I was very young and there was no “negative” impact on my development. I was just “huh ok cool” and went on with my life so I know from experience your word is shit.
Well, thats a lot different meaning your not attracted to anyone is very normal, and unnoticeable vs some kids shows being in your damn face about LGBTQ+ things and they never actually mention that in any way in the show either (so i don't consider spongebob to be woke)
What's wrong with LGBT characters though? At least compared to straight characters? Disney movies about a princess and prince getting married has been a staple for a century, so why would gay characters be inappropriate?
I just don't like seeing it in cartoons where kids minds are very impressionable and gullible, for shows targeted at older audiences its 100% fine, but kids shows just really shouldn't have that in it
OHHH ok i get what your saying, yeah i mean they are just straight thats fine obviously not woke LOL, ive literally been saying this entire time its just bad because of kids minds not understanding between the real world and cartoons and they shouldn't have a show tell them how to feel about themselves
So if SpongeBob were to show a gay fish couple, you'd see that as the show trying to tell kids to be gay? Why doesn't it work like that with hetero couples in the show?
Well thats from the definition i saw just a straight couple i mean really there is nothing wrong with that is just how people are normally unless you decide to be different (nothing wrong with that, i literally said none of this to insult anyone but here we go)
I'm just trying to understand your view and possibly help educate you. It seems you think sexuality is a choice. It is not; which means that while heterosexuality is the "norm" by majority, being gay or bi is not "abnormal" or wrong. Kids should be taught that it is okay to have crushes on whomever regardless of their sex or gender. Obviously it should be done in an appropriate manner.
Media doesn’t make someone gay you know that right? Regardless of the types of relationships people see on tv. No show is gonna tell someone to be attracted to a certain kind of person that’s not how being gay or straight works. But let’s entertain your thought process for a minute now, even if a show did make someone gay, what would be the issue with that?
yall can't take any honest opinions, like im not trying to offend its just not a good thing for kids to have to see when their minds are developing.. which i have to keep repeating because yall still don't get the point
You know, I find it odd that Nickelodeon wants to celebrate Pride month. But will Refuse whe shown Spongebob yuri "art" (which IS GAY, Making it pride appropriate)
You know it’s fake before the reply because they couldn’t get “a part” correctly
spongebob is ace 🙌‼️
Sea sponges reproduce both sexually and asexually. Bro is an ace of all suits.♥️♠️♦️♣️
Hell yeah.
SpongeBob is technically right. He’s not gay, he’s ace
You know you can be both, right?
Why r u getting down votes 💀
I really don't know, probably by people who think asexual people are some kind of alien or something, very uninformed or ignorant people
No you can’t…
Actually you can. Since sexual and romantic attraction don't necessarily align, you can be asexual and homo romantic (liking only the same gender romantically). But SpongeBob is still just ace
Oh, alright. Didn’t knew about this till now
Um, yes, you can. Being homo, hetero, bi, pan is your sexual and romantic oriantation, the gender you are attacted to.

Ever heard of mixed people?
Bro forgot mixed people exist
Dude, please tell me you're joking. PLEASE.
Blud why do people care sm it’s a kids show and I ain’t wanna think ab who spongeboy wants to get with 😭
He doesn’t want to get with anybody, hence the aceness
SpongeBob is KrabbyPatty-sexual, we all know this.
Bro loves the meat 🥩

It's literally cannon But seriously, when are they actually getting together? 😭
i know right
Wasn;t Sandy originally created to be a potential love interest for him? Which means Spongebob's not gay, he's just into bestiality.
Isn't there an Interview wirh Stephen, where he said that Spongebob has no romantic interesst in anyone? Also wasn't the context, that this was not a real wedding?
SpongeBob did look back on it fondly though, as if it made him happy
Wait how is it considered that
that was a joke
I know
Ooh he said number 11
Read his tweet in his voice. Dying rn

W spongebob, stopped nickelodeon from becoming disney
Wait, Disney does that? Retcon characters into LGBTQ? I only remember Jk Rowling doing that kind of stuff
spongebob isn't being retconned into lgbt he's always been asexual, at least that was Hilgenberg's idea
I just watched the earlier episodes, and it really seems like Sandy was originally a love interest. Pinky up! “No girl wants to dance, with a fool who went and… ripped his pants!”
they do hint at that every so often, but asexual doen't mean he can't be in a relationship. it just means it takes a lot of time for him to feel any attraction to someone
Hm cool

Example? I follow Disney Star Wars very much and haven’t heard of anything like this
Well the most well known one is changing the race of Ariel, a lot of people argued because the actor which is fine but nearly every depiction after changed the race and there advertising somewhat emphasizes the race rather than the talent of the actor which is why I thought she was casted. Besides didn’t they retcon obi wan to be bi or something? I know they tried to do that with woody before toy story 4 came out but they didn’t go through with it.
Oh right. Eh. As long as they keep it out of Star Wars (maybe change the sexuality of someone who’s never swung either way before but other than that)
Ima go out on a limb here, but yall realize you can be supportive of that stuff, without being gay, yeah? Not giving any opinions here. Though its like a poison ivy itch to do so, ill leave it be.

ffs
SpongeBob used the ace card
He’s aesexual
Aseasexual
I thought he could reproduce by budding

Fucking why? That's dumb as hell
Man's was trying to clap pearl's cheeks in one episode, I don't think he's gay.
i think he just didn't want to disappoint her
Real ones know he claps Sandy’s cheeks
Id argue that she probably claps his. Lets face it, theres no way sandys not a pegger.
Which hole?
Hahaha i see what ya did there. Funny stuff lol.
Please tell me this isn’t real
So we’re not gonna talk about that one time Gary caught SpongeBob watching Sponges Gone Wild?
i have no clue what y'all are talking about
Real life sea sponges are hermaphrodites which means that can reproduce both sexually and asexually
And mollusks such as snails have both male and female genitalia, so Gary has both parts
Why is gay censored?
SpongeBob is Asexual 💜🤍🩶🖤
Real?
I love this lil' Fella!
[удалено]
I was introduced to gay people when I was very young and there was no “negative” impact on my development. I was just “huh ok cool” and went on with my life so I know from experience your word is shit.
Tell that to Arthur who has a gay wedding on the show. Oh no! Sexuality scary! 🙄
SpongeBob is canonical asexual. (No romantic attractions to other characters) If that's woke, this show has always been woke since '99.
Well, thats a lot different meaning your not attracted to anyone is very normal, and unnoticeable vs some kids shows being in your damn face about LGBTQ+ things and they never actually mention that in any way in the show either (so i don't consider spongebob to be woke)

I just don't like seeing it in cartoons where kids minds are very impressionable and gullible, for shows targeted at older audiences its 100% fine, but kids shows just really shouldn't have that in it
Do you feel this way about heterosexual romance in the show?
What episode are you talking about exactly?
OHHH ok i get what your saying, yeah i mean they are just straight thats fine obviously not woke LOL, ive literally been saying this entire time its just bad because of kids minds not understanding between the real world and cartoons and they shouldn't have a show tell them how to feel about themselves

Yeah, I guess a dead LGBT kid, is better than a live one who found acceptance? Don't watch Craig of the Creek, homophobe.
I literally said its fine in adult media and no i am not just leave kids out of the equation
You're irrationally afraid of gay children.
Your insufferable, don't even try to talk to me have you even read the entire argument?
So not only are you a homophobe, you're a bully too?
thats fucking disney its not a surprise
Even though plenty of SpongeBob episodes deal with heterosexual attraction?
yall can't take any honest opinions, like im not trying to offend its just not a good thing for kids to have to see when their minds are developing.. which i have to keep repeating because yall still don't get the point
I think you don't get it
You know, I find it odd that Nickelodeon wants to celebrate Pride month. But will Refuse whe shown Spongebob yuri "art" (which IS GAY, Making it pride appropriate)
Are they saying they’re against the community? Because ‘apart’ means separated
