Seth MacFarlane reveals baby Stewie is gay
”We had an episode that went all the way to the script phase in which Stewie does come out. … But we decided it’s better to keep it vague, which makes more sense because he’s a one-year-old. Ultimately Stewie will either be gay or be a very unhappy repressed heterosexual. It also explains why he’s so hell-bent on killing Lois and taking over the world. He has a lot of aggression, which comes from confusion and uncertainty about his orientation.”
