<p>Recently, I discovered this new Tumblr blog called Give Greg a Boyfriend. You can probably tell what the blog is all about by the way.
</p><p>After Future Boy Zoltron aired, the user who runs the blog decided it was nice we were getting some male LGBT characters in the show: Mr. Smiley and Mr. Frowny. But they are just side characters and are not really important to the show.
</p><p>In this show, we have more "female" LGBT characters than we do male characters. Yes I know gems are sexless, but they have feminine traits. Besides, there's the Mystery Girl. The person who runs the blog also explained that today in children's cartoons, there are more lesbian characters than male gay characters. Adventure Time: Marceline and Bubblegum (subtext) Clarence: Jeff's moms. Legend of Korra: Korra and Asami. Here: Pearl, Garnet, Ruby, Sapphire, Mystery Girl, etc.
</p><p>And gay male characters are shown as a joke in children's show, (i just watched an episode of zoey 101 on teen nick and michael got paired with a guy for the school dance and that was just used for comedy.) or as side characters (there was some gay background characters in Clarence, and on the Loud House, Clyde has two dads). But never as main characters.
</p><p>There are A LOT of single male characters in the show. Greg just happens to be one of them. And since the blog runner wants to make SU the ultimate gayest show ever, they decided that Greg needs to have a boyfriend.
</p><p>Give Greg a Boyfriend, if you're reading this, please don't kill me. I'm very neutral on this "Greg needs to be gay" thing. Let me explain.
</p><p>Part of me says: "Yes yes yes! We totally need more male LGBT characters!" another part of me says: "No Greg loves Rose and we already have tons of awesome LGBT characters do we really need anymore". I agree that in kids' shows, there aren't as many male gay characters as lesbian characters. But we have Mr. Smiley and Mr. Frowny for that. Also, we have hope for male background characters who are gay. (we have two moms from Sadie's song)But we already have so many awesome LGBT characters:
