I feel like I’ve been hearing this nonsense since I was like 7. Kids would call Tinky Winky gay because it was purple and I think had a handbag that could be called a purse.
The teletubbies are an extinct branch of the tree of life, the only living relatives of which are the boobahs. Little is known about the sexual habits of these vanished creatures – indeed, we are unable to determine from skeletal remains even whether they were sexually dimorphic, how their young were gestated and raised, or why they were so fabulous. The only thing we know for certain is that they inhabited a lost area of gently rolling hills and possessed a rudimentary agriculture, keeping flocks of nuu nuu for tubby toast and tubby custard.

The teletubbies are still on?
BrockChocolate says
Tubbies are asexual in the biological sense, they clone new versions of themselves. This is well known tubby lore

If you find yourself considering the sex life of a mascot, an anthropomorphic candy, or other fictional being without genitalia, maybe that’s on you.

It’s the handbag isn’t it. Always the handbag…

Leave Tinky Wink alone!

Is it even a dude? Like, does that sort of thing ever come up in the show about giant toddler monsters?
