During lunch today, I was engaged in a heated argument with a couple of my friends about Teletubbies. They, like everyone else, all believe that Tinky-Winky is gay. I think this is totally ridiculous. How on earth does it(?) have a sexual preference if it isn't even a specific gender. My friends were telling me that the rest of the teletubbies DO have genders (one of my friends even added that they have feelings and sexual desires too). I seriously doubt that Teletubbies have sex organs. I yelled at one of my friends "Tinky-Winky doesn't even have a penis!" and she said "Yes he does!" I yelled back, "No he doesn't!" And this went on for about a minute. Then I got really fed up with them and shouted that they were asexual because they were just created by a couple of British guys on acid.

Teletubbies are some of the scariest things on earth. Along with puppets and clay figures.
I think Boohbah might be even scarier.

AHhhhhh! I saw that child toy!!! How can they give those to children!!! I would have nightmares!!!!
Supossedely it's because Tinky Winky is a male character who carries a red lady's purse with him.
Also Tinky Winky has made special appearances on a Richard Simmons fitness video.
Oh and did I forget to mention that episode in which Tinky Winky lost his Cher CD.

Lol.
I like the boobahs... ¬_¬
I always thought the teletubbies were asexual though...
I'm a Wiggles viewer myself.
...yeah i guess i agree with Sgt. Pepper... I thought the teletubbies didnt have a sex... they may have a gender, but Im not familiar enough with teletubbie society and culture to know the different genders they have...
either way its still ridiculous.

I just thought they were extremely annoying?
Teletubbies scare the shit out of me... and that sun with the baby's face... EEEE.
Boobahs are just creepy. I had to babysit once and the girl made me sit through an episode. I even had to do the little dances with her... I think God hated me on that day.

Don't forget the triangle antenna and purple color. Personally, I think Tinky Winky was created partially to wind up the religious right
Yeah, I think people were against Tinky-Winky more because he was a represented homosexuality than because he was actually gay. The triangle and the purple are well-known gay symbols, and the fact that he has a low, male voice and carries a handbag doesn't help, I'm sure. I still think it's ridiculous though. The kids aren't going to pick up on that kind of stuff, and even if he was intended to be gay, it shouldn't be such a big deal.
Teletubbies scare the shit out of me... and that sun with the baby's face... EEEE.That's almost exactly what I was going to say... Babies are extremely frightening on their own. Add a yellow tint and flames, And you have an effective tool for nightmare making.
