montims:
see, with regard to # 2 - that is where I cannot follow you.  I cannot
conceive of any society being "strictly heterosexual" in any place or time.
So it stood to reason for me that a percentage of the WW was gay, even if it
was not explicitely mentioned.  And it is interesting to me to find out who
is gay, so I hope she outs more characters as time goes by...
