Do They Have Nothing Better To Do?

TV Squad reports that the Polish government recently launched a probe to find out whether the kids’ TV show Teletubbies promotes a homosexual agenda.  Ewa Sowinska, a government-appointed children rights watchdog claims to be concerned about the effect that Teletubbies will have on children. 

Apparently her concern started when she noticed that Tinky Winky, a character she believes to be a boy, was carrying a woman’s purse.  I guess that if you are male and you are seen carrying a purse, you must automatically be gay, huh?  Using that rationalization, most of the boys and men in America would be gay.  I don’t think I’ve ever known a little boy that didn’t pick up his mom’s purse and carry it around or play with it at some point in time.

I hate to be standing up for the Teletubbies, because I honestly couldn’t care any less about that show but this is just ridiculous.  I’m thinking all of the time and money being put into this investigation could be better spent elsewhere.
