I get the feeling that the only difference between Ianto and Jack in that area is that Ianto hasn't met anybody of an alien race.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Plus, Ianto doesn't strike me as particularly sexually confused. Isn't that kind of an old way of saying things? Doesn't that just mean, "I, in my narrow view of things, find your sexuality confusing" at some level?
And evidently, in the Torchwood world heteronormativity not such a big concept. Is anyone in that office not at least bi? Owen?

Thrive to spite them
Gwen snogged the chick who was possessed by the alien, but I think that's as far as she got.
Owen's had sex with men and women, when he dosed the girl in the bar with the alient pheromones her boyfriend started after them so Owen dosed the boyfriend as well and had sex with both of them.

Given the couple he space-roofied in the first episode, I'd say that door swings both ways.
Yet another inevitable buffista x-post.

I thought she more than snogged her. Also, I thought the alien did not so much possess the woman as wear her remains as a costume.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, that's right. So Gwen's as close as we get to straight in this show. Sexual confusion not actually too big an issue.

Gwen hasn't shown any inclination to make out with women who aren't putting out hyper-intense Do Me pheromones, so I'd say she's pretty straight. With wildly variant taste in men.

Compassionately intolerant
I just watched for first two Torchwood episodes last night. I'm now part of the fandom. Whoohoo. I may not be a cool kid, but at least I now know what the cool kids are talking about.

Ain't that the truth?

We watched the first Torchwood ep last night and enjoyed it. Capt. Jack is a hottie. Woman from Rome never lasts long in a show, does she? That one guy is a total rapist.
