You illustrate the difference between adult and youth thinking which is why this does not belong on Sesame Street.

To the kids watching Bert and Ernie they are either peers or age-close role models - meaning they behave in a way that is childlike and appeals to that age group/level.

End of thread.

Ernie and Bert live together in an apartment in the basement of 123 Sesame Street. Ernie and Bert sleep in separate beds, though they still share a bedroom. Sesame Workshop states that the two are not homosexuals,[7] and some of Bert's interactions with female characters appear to show that he is attracted to women: serenading Connie Stevens in the Some Enchanted Evening segment of a first-season episode of The Muppet Show, and recording a song about his girlfriend, I Want to Hold Your Ear, which was released on several albums.
Bert and Ernie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah Bert & Ernie look the same today as they did 42 years ago.

This is becoming borderline pedaphillia.

Under NO circumstances should they show these two life long best friends getting married to one another.

Well, I have to admit the gay friends I have compared to the hetero do tend to take better care of themselves . . .

Friends can become lovers.

Unless they were engaged in a monogamous relationship and didn't do drugs.
