How is Kermit the frog represented as a male character?

Kermit the frog is a character which does not have many characteristics which indicates him to being male. However those which do are:

- the colour of him, the colour green is usually seen to be a quite boyish colour,
-he does not have eyelashes, as they would be considered as a female characteristic,

- In addition, his character is a frog which usually in fairy tales, frogs are seen to be male as if kissed they would turn into prince charming.
-As well he is a basic looking character with little clothes and no make-up, I think if he was supposed to be female, make-up would be added as well as some kind of clothing.

In conclusion Kermit the frog is a very hard character to distinguish its gender just by looking at a photo, to gain more knowledge you need to hear and see the behaviours of the character.
