    AMERICAN HOUSEWIFE fans debate about a lot of things that grab place on the reveal. One of the more persistent and liveliest topics of conversation is whether or not middle kid, Oliver Otto, is gay.

    Taylor decides to drop synchronized swimming and goes into drama, but then she decides to quit drama, forcing her parents to remind her of the "Otto Motto", which is "never donate up". But then Greg points out that Katie is a habitual quitter, which leads her to consider taking up something and sticking with it.

    • Ambiguously Gay: Oliver. He keeps an attainment board with shirtless celebrities in his closet, he studies ballet, and he very convincingly acts the part of Eyo's lover when he shows Taylor how to rehearse for the play they're studying. (As Greg says, he's either as good an actor as Ian McKellen or he's as gay as Ian McKellen.)
    • Armored Closet Gay: Angela, a lesbian, speculates that Oliver's
