BIKINI BOTTOM?: The Internet is Currently Debating On if Nickelodeon Really Revealed Spongebob Squarepants is Gay

Many believe that Nickelodeon may have confirmed that the character Spongebob Squarepants is in fact gay in a tweet celebrating Pride month.

Happy Pride month to a certain yellow sponge who lives in a pineapple under the sea! On Saturday (June 13th), Nickelodeon seemed to confirm many folks’ longtime suspicions that the character of Spongebob Squarepants from the series of the same name is, in fact, gay. Although they didn’t explicitly state it, the network shared a post on Twitter celebrating Pride month, which included some photos of a few of their characters that are apart of the LGBTQ+ community. One of the photos depicted a rainbow-fied Spongebob smiling wide.

“Celebrating #Pride with the LGBTQ+ community and their allies this month and every month,” the tweet read. The post also includes images of Schwoz Schwartz from Henry Danger and Korra from the Avatar spin-off show Legend of Korra. Fans have known for ages that Korra is bisexual, as it was explicitly written into the show itself. The character of Schwoz is played by actor Michael D. Cohen, who recently revealed himself to be a transgendered man.

This of course sparked major debate via social media about the beloved character. With some even pointing out a 2005 interview where the creator of the show labeling the Sponge as Asexual, someone who is without sexual feelings or attractions. Asexual individuals may still experience attraction but this attraction doesn’t need to be realized in any sexual manner. Check out some of the excited reactions from Twitter users about Spongebob’s unofficial coming out.
