^ I always thought that if one of them went that way, it would be Abby instead of Kristy. I don't like the fan fiction assumption that one of them HAS to be a lesbian, though. After all, I don't particularly want a lot of male attention right now, and I'm definitely straight!

I don't know. But Abby seems like the asexual type where she's not attracted to males or females. I wonder why that third possibility never gets brought up for any of the sitters, especially her.

I think it's really only come into mainstream awareness recently. Also, Abby's 13 and I think it's normal for people to not get interested in anyone romantically/sexually until a bit later.

I agree Amalia, I have gotten that vibe from Abby too! Nice to see someone else think the same. And like greer said, it doesn't seem as recognized by the masses as being straight, gay, or bi. (I certainly hope asexuality becomes more recognized and accepted by the general public.)

I always pegged Abby as the one who'd be a lesbian. Kristy doesn't give off the vibe as much-- hard to explain, I guess. I didn't know I was asexual until college, when I realized that people my age actually wanted to have sex (and some actually --gasp!-- HAD). I grew up thinking you did it once for every kid you wanted and that was it, purely biological. It's probably too soon for Abby to tell, but when she's older, she'll know I could see Abby being ace, for sure.

And kristy's based on the real Mrs. Perkins

Is there any confirmation that Ann is gay?

Is there any confirmation that Ann is gay? From her, no, but it is apparently a well-known fact in the publishing world.

I don't see Abby as being asexual. To me, it always seemed like she had a giant crush on Kristy. She could possibly be asexual, but that would be kind of weird because I'm a Jewish asexual from Long Island and I don't like to have TOO much in common with book characters.

Also, for some reason, I have the feeling that Claudia was somewhat bisexual. No idea where I'm getting this from.
