SpongeBob Squarepants' queer identity is more complicated than you think

SpongeBob Squarepants is many things to many people. Absorbent and yellow and porous is he, but did you know Bikini Bottom's favourite resident is also queer?

 

To celebrate Pride, Nickelodeon posted a tweet with a caption which read: "Celebrating Pride with the LGBTQ+ community and their allies this month and every month."

 

Along with established queer characters like Schwoz Schwartz from Henry Danger and Korra from Legends of Korra, the post also included an adorable picture of SpongeBob wearing a rainbow tie.

 

While it's possible that Nickelodeon might be referring to SpongeBob Squarepants as a straight ally, it seems far more likely that he's actually queer too, supporting an idea that's been floated around by fans for over two decades.

Most sponges are both male and female. In sexual reproduction, they may play either role. The 'male' sponge would release sperm into the water, which would travel and then enter a 'female' sponge

'He's' a sponge.
