A Gay Friendly Network?

Lets see how well you know your late night television, can you guess these characters?

This animated one-year old prodigy is obsessed with world domination. Hes the youngest of three children and his best friend is a teddy bear named Rupert. Hes been shown dressed as a female, dancing to techno in a room full of shirtless guys and carries a photo of Chris Noth in his wallet. Do you know who he is?

This heavily pierced female is the proprietor of Moralton's lone sex and piercings shop. Shes become the warm and caring person that another character named Orel has come to trust the most. The only story of her past known is when her heart was broken by the mother of one of Orel's friends. Can you guess her name?

If you guessed Stewie from 'Family Guy' and Stephanie Putty of 'Moral Orel' you would be correct and they aren't the only ones. Adult Swim hosts 33 more LGBT Characters including Walter & Perry of 'Home Movies', Valerie of 'Frisky Dingo' and Alice of 'Superjail'.

Positive or negative that LGBT characters are all over the network? Some might see it as a negative that they're poking fun at our community but I see it as a positive. I think its a good thing that the gay characters are treated just like the straight characters even though they are cartoons (made to be funny) some of these LGBT characters hold good jobs, live normal lives and have healthy relationships.

Whats your opinion?
