Yes, because it's about if they are or if a player can play them as such. Which is why most of the MC's are. With the exception of the MC of Rules of Engagement whether they actually are LGBT depends on how they are played. You can play the MC of The Freshman as completely straight and those two kisses with Kaitlyn don't count against that because it wasn't about her interest in Kaitlyn one way or another. That doesn't matter. She can be straight, but she can also be completely lesbian who rejects Chris and James at every turn in the first book. . . because that book is insane on the everyone loves the MC scale.

We've never had a case quite like this before. The closest we've had was Hayden and Rory (though Rory is in the same book) where we decide the gender of the character and who they will date. Both can be completely straight (presumably. It is a bit early to say that for sure with Rory) or completely not (again a bit early to say that with Rory. Everyone is in love with Rory. That doesn't mean Rory is in love with everyone).
