Day 2: aspec characters in shows and movies

Matthew Cuthbert (drawn here in movie form) has always been on the asexual spectrum for me. He lived with his sister, and never married because he was too afraid of women (Marilla, on the other hand, never married because men were too afraid of her).

I was a little disappointed when the new Netflix version gave Matthew a romantic subplot, but he was still the same endearing Matthew, so I got over it. His love for Anne always makes my heart ache because it’s so pure.
