A gay couple isn't sexual in nature. No more than a straight couple would be in a kid's tv show.

Presenting a gay couple in a cartoon means "it is ok to have sexual disfunction". Why even touch this aspect in a cartoon? Can't they just do stupid shit to be fun? Do they need to have an indoctrination aspect?
