“Spongebob Squarepants is Gay.”  No, that is not a blatantly incendiary comment intended to start an elementary school jihad, that is a headline from the daily newspapers appearing around the world.  Is nothing sacred or innocent left, that cartoons now have to have some deep, hidden sexual identity agenda?  When I was a child, I didn't for one moment remotely think about the sexual orientation of the cartoons I watched -- heck, I didn't even think about Fred and Daphne maybe being a couple until I was an adult and saw the Live Action movies!  Let kids be kids, for pity's sake.  They grow up fast enough as it is.  And besides, innocent people are being beheaded in Iraq, genocide is being ignored by first world countries, the region of Indonasia has lost 215,000+ people in one swoop, and this is news?  I wonder what the Rev. Falwell has to say...

All right, allow me to introduce myself.  (And no, I'm generally not that politically charged...I'm a die hard Conservative, and I live in BC.)  I am Jocelyn, the ever cute and most favourite cousin of the Hilbaleys, and I will be adding a much needed dose of femininity to said website (hence my Username:  The Estrogen Defensive.)  I am new to this “blog” thing, so please bear with me, dear readers.  I am also a natural blonde, and an only child, which lends itself to certain eccentricities.  But hey, if you want dirt on any of of the guys, drop me an e!  :o)
