Visor Robot
How do we know the Visor Robot is a boy?
- He has the brain of a kindly old man (Homestarloween Party). And he admits in an Easter Egg that he is not Valerie. Bad Bad Guy 15:06, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
No it is not
Teen Girl Squad Issue 12 iwas this " dude she said she likes cloth ." he talking to the guy next to him you twit — 66.234.218.129 (talk • contribs) {{{2}}} (left unsigned)
- "Did that dude just tell you she likes cloth?" That quote you said isn't even real. Bad Bad Guy 23:56, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, you might want to watch that cartoon again. There are only 3 people in that panel. What's Her Face and the two Band Name Boys. One of the guys says to his friend, "Did that dude just tell you she likes cloth?" Not a whole lot of ambiguity there. —BazookaJoe 00:07, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Homestar Reading Off of a Card
In Malloween Commercial, Homestar calls Marshie "Little boy or little girl," and in isp he calls Strong Bad "ma'am". However, he appeared to be reading a template when he said these quotes. Should they count anyway? Bad Bad Guy 00:07, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Oh...excardon me...
Does anyone else think Senor Cardgage should be separated? Like, not his own article, but a separate section in this article. I mean, SB states in Cardgage's first appearance that he's got a bit of gender confusion. A separate section would make it easier to find other characters' confusions, which definitely are the exception and not the rule, as in Senor's case. I'd be up to doing this if no one else is, but I figgered a consensus would be in order first.--Onamuji (b/w T. C.

Homosexuality...Gender Confusion
Before I get into an edit war over this, let's discuss this here. Frankly, I don't believe that homosexuality is either the same gag or really an example of gender confusion. Could someone please try to explain the rationale behind it's inclusion (remembering that this is a family talk page).

PS: BBG, "<>" should be read "is either less than or greater than" or more easily "is not equal to". Essentially, my rationale for removal was that Homosexuality is not Gender Confusion
- I would concur that the examples of "homosexuality" is not appropriate for the page. It is not a related gag, and I would argue that some don't fit. Coach Z's belief he's Bubs date in Date Nite would be an example of gender confusion and/or cross dressing. wbwolf (t | ed) 13:59, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- Can we please NOT have this controversy? The coach z one is just coach z's perception of reality. The homestar one is a funny one-time gag, and the brianrietta one wasn't even TBC's joke. I don't think that this topic has any place on our family-friendly wiki. — Defender1031*Talk 14:40, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- I object to the idea of Homestar Runner characters being sexual at all, hetero-, homo-, or otherwise. I think TBC have purposefully avoided this kind of humor, and it wouldn't be accurate for us to construe their characters as having sexual preferences.

- In a scene like do over, the right way to think about it is that Homestar is like an elementary school kid who has absolutely no idea what he's talking about when he says, "Uh, Strong Bad? I think I'm falling for you." In a situation like studying, Strong Bad probably doesn't know what bases 2 and above are, and if you asked him, he'd stammer, "Actually, I don't really know anything about the ladies. I mean I do! I mean—WHGT! JGTH! YES I'M AWESOME!"
- This issue has been hashed out elsewhere, and since TBC have purposefully avoided making their characters sexual (saints be praised!), it wouldn't be accurate for us to speculate about the subject.

- There's a flaw in that, in the fact that homestar and marzipan date, strong bad is always talking about the ladies, etc... sure they've never explicitly said or done anything past first base, but still they do have an orientation. — Defender1031*Talk 16:32, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- I still contend that they go on dates without there being anything sexual about it. Trey56 16:35, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
- It seems that it takes 3 logical assumptions to make this section worthwhile. A. That the dumb animal characters have the capacity to be sexual beings. B. That the same dumb animal characters have engaged in homosexuality enough instances for it to warrant inclusion. C. That homosexuality is indeed Gender Confusion.

It seems that Trey took care of (A); DeFender took care of (B); and no strong proponent for (C) has emerged. Seems like a very clear consensus and syllogistic proof against the inclusion of this subsection. Flashfight 18:36, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
