Baby Stewie in ‘Family Guy’: He’s gay!

astewie__oPt

Seth MacFarlane is finally spilling the secrets of “Family Guy” —  yes, baby Stewie is gay.

“We had an episode that went all the way to the script phase in which Stewie does come out. It had to do with the harassment he took from other kids at school. He ends up going back in time to prevent a passage in Leviticus from being written: ‘Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind. It is an abomination.’ But we decided it’s better to keep it vague, which makes more sense because he’s a 1-year-old. Ultimately, Stewie will be gay or a very unhappy repressed heterosexual. It also explains why he’s so hellbent on killing [his mother, Lois] and taking over the world: He has a lot of aggression, which comes from confusion and uncertainty about his orientation.”

    Oh dear God, I am so sick of the self-important boors that have apparently taken over the entire world. Excuse me Mr. MacFarlane, it’s a cartoon character. An important character on a very funny show, but in the end it’s no more real than the wisdom you are pretending demonstrate.

      Hey, übercon  (note the correct spelling)…  Stewie’s an icon, a symbol, and a weekly (sometimes daily) presence in our culture. For that, he carries weight.  A culture is measured by it’s iconology. There would be zero discussion of a gay character on TV when I was growing up. If you’re young enough not to remember those days and don’t see the point here, then thank your lucky stars and find something else to bash.
