SpongeBob Nickelodeon Pride Stands with LGBTQ Community
Celebrating #Pride with the LGBTQ+ community and their allies this month and every month
SpongeBob SquarePants‘ sexuality has entered the chat — and lo and behold, the Bikini Bottom dweller might be, as many suspected for years, gay.
Nickelodeon tweeted Saturday in support of Pride month, and attached photos of three of their canon characters as a clear indicator that they’re all part of the LGBTQ+ community … but without actually saying it outright.

All of the characters — Sponge, Schwoz Schwartz from ‘Henry Danger,’ and Korra from the ‘Avatar’ spin-off show ‘Legend of Korra’ — are featured in a rainbow color background.
