Boys of the world unite. We can't permit this sacrilege.

The dumbing down of our toddlers has now reached another stage.

Girls know how to wiggle, girls know how to tease
Girls know how to stay in step, they know how to please.
Girls are really different, they have a mischievous
streak.
And when they have grown, as history has shown
it's their difference that makes them unique.

Just a thought, FP72E.

"Oh no, Is nothing sacred? We now have a GIRL Wiggle"

So Dorothy the Dinosaur is male?

Hmmmm. In which case the other lads would be friends of Dorothy, right?

Should we tell Fred Nile, do you think?

No... the lads are just good acquaintances.

But Captain Feathersword on the other hand... Check this out from wiggles.wikia.com:

""Captain Feathersword" is called "the Friendly Pirate", wears a hat, patch, and puffy shirt and wields a "feathery saber". He is best known for his catchphrase "Ahoy there, me hearties!". A running joke with the Captain is his use of the phrase "Well, blow me down!", which usually results in the characters nearest him obeying his wish by blowing him...

...to the ground with a gust of breath. According to Wiggledance! Live in Concert, the Captain can even juggle balls.

The Captain was created because The Wiggles understood that young children, especially boys, like pirates; they gave him a "feathersword" because they wanted him to be nonviolent."

Is that sound a duck quacking?

The Captain was created because...
WmTrevor,
...it is a dextrous tactic proven to foster the fag brigades' agenda.

Okay, we finally have a Wiggles thread...(about bloody time:)

My son is now ten, so he's well past the Wiggles. However, he did so enjoy them during his younger years - circa Greg Page as the yellow Wiggle.
You're right, Pericles, that Dorothy is the most feminine of dinosaurs - she even has a garden where she will serve you rosy tea. Captain Feathersword is less gay and more your bumbling vacuous friendly pirate. I always thought Henry the Octopus was the gay one.

To tell the truth, I miss having the Wiggles on (although I still have a couple of DVDs which I'm now tempted to secretly watch while everyone's asleep)

Here we were continuing to raise the average IQ and interest level of this thread when antepenultimate to this comment…

You may be right about Henry, though I always thought purple was deliberately counterintuitive. Lilac, on the other hand, may have been too unsubtle a choice of colour… Usually cephalopods are suckers, but I bet you, Henry thinks it's the size of your hectocotylus that counts.

WmTrevor,

I think Henry was wrongly cast... in my experience it's usually the heterosexual males that appear to have eight hands.( although I've led a sheltered life :)

"in my experience it's usually the heterosexual males that appear to have eight hands"

Hence your :)

As you've said elsewhere... 'half yer luck'!

To rephrase the 'schoolboy' joke, Why do OCTO-pusses have TEN-tackles?

Well! Now I understand many more of the posts I've seen on here.

Dear Wmm Trevor,

Why do OCTO-puses have TEN-tackles?

Because they're suckas?

Why could a girl join the wiggles ? Because like the three apparent blokes she too only has a finger to wiggle.

A middle finger?

What the Wiggles should be looking for is someone with flair, exuberance, humour, sex-appeal, abundant intelligence, wit, wisdom and wherewithall….. like…. like erm…..like MEEE!

A Ludwiggle!

Piffle to a female Wiggle. THIS is what they REALLY need!!
