FF13 Is Lightning Lesbian or Asexual?

[Heatman]

Lightning seemed to be one of those ladies who will have hundreds of pet cats while living alone once she reaches her 40's. She doesn't seemed to be interested in women neither. Fang did flirt with her but Fang is obviously with Vanille.

So it's obvious that she wanted to live and be left alone by both male and female human counterpart. Being with her cat pets is more comfortable and convenient for her. There is nothing wrong with that in my opinion.

Lightning, in my view, is a gay character. Despite the fact that her sexual orientation is not expressly verified in the game's canon, her interactions with female characters and absence of romantic ties with male characters indicate a romantic interest in women. This interpretation is bolstered by the fact that many fans have picked up on these subtle hints and regard Lightning as a gay figure. While everyone is free to hold their own perspective, I believe that this is a valid interpretation of the character that adds depth and complexity to her story.

Lightning is one the most depressed characters ever when it comes to Final fantasy and socializing has never been one of her strongest virtues (for lack of a better word)I mesn she's nowhere to be seen.

I don't know about Lightning but Fang and Venille are definitely lesbians. Does lightning even have any love interests?

Whenever they touch, the honesty is too much.

Yeah they are definitely shagging. Fang did try flirting with Lightning but Lightning does not respond. Lightning is too asexual. Serah is the one to continue the family bloodline. Lightning will die alone but happy I guess.

I would not know anything about Lightning's love interests-but its possible I would suppose, that she could like girls-or Fang could like girls as well, but I think it would be hard to tell when you play these Final Fantasy games?

It would be pretty difficult to decide by just playing the games simply as a result that the developers are bent on creating storyline that intrigue our interests and giving us what to talk about. I would assume that it is just the love she has got for her sister.

Lightning's sexually is up the player's interpretation because its never denied nor confirmed. Most of the fanbase thinks she is kind of bordering to the rainbow spectrum, Square decided to be mysterious about it so it won't offend the conservative countries.

The hints of gayness is just fan service for the male players. In Lightning returns there are some hints but it's not in your face.

Hi. Personally I would imagine she is heterosexual. I'm not particularly interested in love stories, and i'm not sure there's any character I would approve as Lightning's significant other.

She has a manly face indeed, so I'd say she's a lesbian. At the same time, it's the first time I am thinking about it lol, whenever I am playing I am immersed in the game, and not in the sexual orientation of the characters.

Most people don't care about that. That is why I hate some devs forcing certain genders and/or sexualities in games or situations where they don't fit, just for political correctness. Keep that stuff out of our games.

She doesnt like men though, She never flirted with them. She is mean to most men except from Hope.
