As opposed to, let's say, oh I dunno, that British show named Doctor Who that is clearly and officially a show aimed at 8 year olds - that has constant gay references and a gay character.
Children's innocent little ears are not going to burn just because they learnt here's more than one way to lvoe someone. Hell, maybe when they grow up, the suicide rate amongst gay teenagers would drop a bit?
As for the characters in SG, no, all fo a sudden turning a character gay would be ridiculous (although it has been done before in Buffy wit Willow.). However, there's no reason not to portray a new character as gay. And the characters have all been portrayed as straight - whenever they have any sort of a relationship, it's a straight one, not a gay one.
