Roadrunner. (As in the “meep-meep” bird partnered up with Wyle E. Coyote.)

Was roadrunner a boy bird or a girl bird? Did they ever really say?

    male because the coyote dressed up as a female roadrunner one time.

    Oooooo! Good one! I had forgotten that.

    Wait…. what if the roadrunner is a lesbian?

  3. superdestroyer says:

    Considering the cartoons were made in the 1950's, I doubt the writers had that in mind.

    Somehow, I neglected to worry about roadrunner's gender identity.
    I got sidetracked by trying to decide if god was a he or a she.

    I did wonder, though, whether beep-beep could be replaced by a more musical sound. without endangering the inner self of the character'.

    Male. I remember him dressing up as a female roadrunner. Besides, he did really stupid things (attaching rockets to skates and skating off a cliff, etc. ) so he had to be a male. Just kidding!!!!!

    Thanks, SD!

    But what if it was a Victor/Victoria thing (a female pretending to be a male pretending to be a female)?

    Actually I always thought both the coyote and roadrunner were boys. Maybe because I had a brother 22 months younger than I. (No sisters.) My brother and I used to try to get the better of each other, not that our games were as violent (or cartoonish as the show), so there was definitely a very similar dynamic. And we weren't as stupid as the road runner. :) Just my brother. :0- He still is….

    (I say that last in good humor.)
