So WHAT is the Deal With Peppermint Patty?

We all know the gag about her and Marcie creature “an item”, but what was Schulz thinking when he created the characters? And didn’t he ever think that maybe he should change the characters once folks began making jokes?

Maybe he wanted to present that girls could play sports just like boys.

They are just friends, and were always meant to be.
A author can’t be responsible for what soiled minded people reflect of his perform. The characters were his, and he had no reason to change them just because someone interpreted them in one particular way.

Peppermint Patty makes an awful lot of overtures toward Charlie Brown to be considered a lezzie. Marcie calls Patty “sir” because she’s both smart and clueless, a humorous combination. Patty generally objects to existence called “sir.” If she were a dykester, she might be more inclined to encourage this.

I’m pretty sure Marcie also had a crush on Charlie Brown for a while.
They’re meant to be nine year old kids. I think any hints of something outside of nine-year-old-kidisms is probably taking things too fa

Peppermint Patty is not gay. And neither is Marcie. This is one of those "pop culture" things that will not perish and I'm so so so tired of it. As recently as last month, Entertainment Weekly had a little sidebar in their gay pride issue about TV characters who gays spot with and one of them was Peppermint Patty. I can understand why people would relate to her, but that doesn't make her gay. I relate to Ariel, but that doesn't make me a sixteen year old girl or a mermaid, nor does it make Ariel a man.
Peppermint Patty is a tomboy, and she definitely stands out from the other girls of the Peanuts universe. Sally, Lucy, Patty (the other one that no one remembers), Violet all wear dresses. Peppermint Patty doesn't. She's athletic. And in most animated specials, she's got kind of a husky voice. But to take all of these things at face value and label her lesbian because of them is to decline her her identity for one ascribed to her, and to rob her of her nuance.
She's being raised by her father without her mother. Her psychology makes perfect sense that she would associate hers
The Case For Multi-attracted Peppermint Patty [Pride Week]
Between the novel television cartoon, last year's remarkable CGI movie, the fresh comics put out by Kaboom and the themed strip collections put out by Fantagraphics to supplement the The Accomplish Peanuts series, it's been a good moment to be a fan of the work of Charles M. Schulz. But in absorbing a lot of this stuff, something leaped out at me that I can't push aside: Peppermint Patty --- formally known as Patricia Reichardt --- should be bisexual.
Peppermint Patty & Marcie are one of two pairs of children's characters (the other creature Bert & Ernie of Sesame Street) thought of as queer with varying degrees of seriousness. It's generally taken as read, just a tacit reality, and Melanie Gillman & Molly Ostertag wrote wonderful stories exploring the pair in last year's Peanuts: A Tribute To Charles M. Schulz.
Besides Marcie's constantly calling Patty "Sir," there's the fact that the two are almost never seen apart. They constantly bounce off each other, offering a unique outsider stare at the goings-on of the Peanuts Gang (it&a
Peanuts’ Most Fascinating Relationship Has Always Been Between Peppermint Patty and Marcie
In The Peanuts Movie, Charlie Brown finally makes progress in winning the affections of his unattainable crush, the Little Red-Haired Girl. On one hand, it’s heart-warming and well-earned, but on the other, it feels philosophically out of place. The world of Peanuts has always been a bountiful, goofy garden of unrequited love, and not just for Charlie Brown: Lucy pines after the unreceptive Schroeder; Sally dotes on her uninterested “Sweet Babboo,” Linus, who at one point develops a schoolboy crush on his mentor, Miss Othmar. But all these relationships pale in comparison to the pairing with the greatest depth of feeling, the most intriguing mystery, and the snappiest lines: Peppermint Patty and Marcie, who are either both in treasure with Charlie Brown, or actually in love with each other, depending on whom you ask.
In Charles Schulz’ original comic strips, both Peppermint Patty and Marcie have unrequited crushes on Charlie Brown. Peppermint Patty usually tries to conceal her affection—although Marcie quickly figures it out, perhaps even before Peppermint Patty herself is willing to
