Kids don't know about any of that when they are young so they would be wondering why.
I'd rather not open that can of worms(or have a cartoon do it for me) until they are a little more mature and can even contemplate what love is to begin with.
I think young kids are happy in their naivety and don't need dilemas of that magnitude to contend with.
How backward. Kids are going to ask about things anyway, and censoring things on the TV doesn't mean they're not going to say, see two men kiss on the street when they're little?

They're going to ask questions about everything, and to sever something so commonplace from the media they're given is just shortsighted imo. I'm not saying we should have characters make out on children's TV, but showing a diverse range of couples and people is vital to their own understanding of the world around them. Anything less is just highly selective and stunted.
