It always strikes me that Walter the Softy appears gay (clothing style) but he is the butt of all jokes, and violent attacks. We are meant to think it is amusing...
Should such stories and sterotypes be allowed?

On subcription page Walter is getting shot out of a pink house by a hose pipe with hands on his bottom..
Its not just that the SNP is centred on Dundee, the comic book encourages bullying , especially against "soft" people

The mystery of how you arrive at your political views has now been answered.
The Beano is better than Mein Kampf I suppose.
Religion encourages the belief in fairies and magic can we ban that next
Damn thats one of the most impressive smack downs I have seen on this forum
What about milhouse in simpsons or stewie in family guy they both meant to be gay .
I'll have to bow to your superior knowledge on that.
No, Stewie is British.
But yeah, the Beano is clearly a scourge on modern society and should be banned immediately before its corrupting influence plunges this country even further into the abyss.
FFS.
A savage indictment of the millionaire aristocratic Tory cabal
You'll know when half-term comes.
We're in to the second week of half term in Scotland already
Are they?
Tattie week is what this break used to be called
When I was at school it was the first week of October and we got sent to farms to pick potatoes and it was a crap job Freezing cold and it got real bad when bigger boys would throw potatoes at smaller kids heads Got about £2 for six hours work
Loved picking rasps in July but hated the October tattie harvest
You do realise that the Beano was first created when Homosexual acts were illegal in this country (which it was until the end of the 1960's)
WTF
i never had to do any work at half terms
£2 must have been a lot of money back in the 18th century though
I'm not sure that sort of language is to be encouraged in a discussion of homosexuality.
