Was Peppermint Patty a man?

She was a tomboy.

You are stupid.

She's also an ungrateful bitch.

Yes sir.

Lez.

So was Marcy.

This.

I'm glad you brought this important issue up, OP. I'm pretty sure Peppermint Patty was the first lesbian character to appear on American TV. And is she ever given credit for her pioneering role? Not a word is ever spoken about it. I guess because she's a drawing, but still it seems an injustice has been done.

Weren't both her and Marcie in love with Charlie Brown? I remember a strip where Marcie took ages to build up the confidence to talk to him and finally kissed him (prefacing it with: "I know you could never love a girl like me who wears glasses" or something) and he was so startled he couldn't speak and because he didn't respond she decided she maybe didn't like him as much as she thought.

Actually, I might be mixing up two storylines with Marcie and Charlie Brown there, but this is one of the ones I was thinking of:

^...both her and Marcie..

Oh dear, R8.

Eh, English isn't my first, or even my second language. It's bound to happen, sometimes.

What the fuck could anyone ever see in Charlie Brown?

Well, I guess he was a lot kinder than any of the other cunts in that neighbourhood.

Would you top Charlie Brown? I fucking doubt it.

...

R12 - I feel triggered by that comment.

She was... abrasive.

She wasn’t a man but I’m sure she was the one who wore the strap-on.

I always detested Peppermint Patty. She was ugly, dumb, and rude. I really disliked the Peanuts special "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving." She rudely invites herself and others over to Chuck's for what she expects will be a lavish Thanksgiving dinner. Charlie Brown (and Snoopy) gamely try to appease her by throwing together a meal made of popcorn and toast and other what have yous (neither one of them are cooks). When Peppermint Patty sees what she's been served she explodes "Where's the turnkey?! WHERE'S THE PUMPKIN PIE?!!" Poor Charlie Brown is hurt and mortified. God, I hated Peppermint Patty. She had an unrequited crush on Charlie Brown as I remember, but Charlie Brown had the good sense to continue to pine after The Little Red Haired Girl.

As long as she was careful R18. I wore one once with my lesbian lover and put my back out!

And pine was all Charlie would do. No one will ever want to fuck Charlie Brown.

R1 - tomboys are not allowed anymore. Neither are lesbians. She's an early case of FTM trans.

R21 - Seriously now, I'm starting to feel attacked.

Don't ask if Peppermint Patty was a man.

It wounds.

R22 Yep, macho dykes are being forced to become transmen now. See Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

R12 & R14, Charlie Brown has a 10 inch Dick and will be fucking BOTH YOU UNGRATEFUL BOTTOM PIGS .

Phil, you see plenty of action because you are rich and famous. Charles will have to save for months to get the money for a red-haired hooker.

Trans. She used to be Hamburger Patty.

R28 However she tastes and smells more like a Fish Patty!.

I liked Sally, Chuck's sister. She was kind of simple and blunt.

Hehe, I remember her screaming out the window at Charlie Brown while he was dithering about with Marcie: "KISS HER, YOU BLOCKHEAD!"

We're going to debate the manners in 'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving' and not speak of Franklin being segregated on one side of the ping pong table by himself?

You remember wrong. She clearly said, "Fuck her, you fuckhead!"

Charlie Brown today is a hot muscle top.

Forget the segregation. How about those plates being violently tossed at the guests? Snoopy wanted to decapitate these bitches.

Now we're talking about Peanuts, I've just gone and had a look over a few strips... is it just me or is it actually quite a depressing strip? Schulz clearly understands human nature very well, but it's a very grim view of it.

Charlie Brown is a bottom, you blockhead.

Nope. She is clearly a Dyke just waiting for her first Bike.

You know them titty bits are just waiting to fly free at Pride.

Considering that Charlie Brown was suicidal over Christmas, yes, I would say it's a depressing comic.

I've never seen the Christmas special, or any of the TV specials come to think of it, only the strips in the paper.

Why didn't anyone report Pigpen's parents to DFS?

Lucy would've been better off being sent to a psychiatrist than be one.

R41, we discussed this in the Great Fucking Pumpkin thread. The parents didn't give a shit about these kids. Apparently this was the norm back then.

One story that cracks me up is that in the early days of the strip, Schulz introduced a character called Charlotte Braun, who as you might guess was a joke on Charlie Brown. This character was loud and obnoxious and one girl ended up writing to Schulz to ask him to remove her from the strip because she and her friends hated the character. He agreed, but in the letter added: "Remember, however, that you and your friends will have the death of an innocent child on your conscience. Are you prepared to accept such responsibility?" and signed off with a picture of Charlotte with an axe embedded in her skull!

...

Sally would fit in around here...

Charles Schulz's strip was groundbreaking until it become over-commercialized in the 60s, starting with the Happiness is a Warm Puppy book.

All the TV shows and movies that followed were crap.

I liked the stage musical, however.

I always hated how badly Charlie Brown was treated by all the females in his life. Lucy and Peppermint Patty needed to be capped and buried under Snoopy's dog house.

Marcy always seemed a little "slow", if you know what I mean.

OP on the left.

She was FTM trans, you stupid whores. It sounds like you all missed the 30 years later reunion documentary on A&E.

Remember the wing nut blogger/artist Peppermint Patty. WHET her?

I didn't think Marcie was "slow." She was kind of weird, but not slow. I liked her.
