Whatever you have to say to Bert you should be able to say in front of Ernie, they've been a couple since 1984! 
Sesame Street is trying to straight-wash history!

By far the most 'important' thing today, Sesame Street's M Saltzman confirmed he wrote Bert and Ernie as a gay couple (well, duh).
Later Sesame Workshop & Frank Oz came out to say essentially:'You idiots, they're Muppets they don't have a sexual orientation!'
So what are these?
