Asexual?

Yes, people, it does exist. No sex drive at all. Is this Buck's condition?

There is no "off" position on the genius switch.

Sure seems that way. I liked the sub-plot regarding his sexuality. Just as it would play out in real life, it isn't Buck who has the issue with his lack of sexuality, it is those around him, with the whispers and comments. Very well-written film.

I thought it was an interesting running thread as well, especially because just when you think they're going to ask for his secrets, all they care is whether he's gay. He seems asexual to me, but what I really want to know is: Has he had work done?

Haha, what I want to know is, what number was written on the piece of paper when that brainless news anchor forgot to drop the coin?

P.S. I definitely agree that Buck is asexual. He doesn't show any interest in either sex; he's too focused on his act and himself! Is there such thing as 'egosexual'?

I think he probably was, but who knows. I don't see why everyone was so concerned about it but that's people I guess, always gossiping.

Buck's own explanation to the woman was probably the right one, that he just hadn't found true love yet.

I know Buck is only loosely based on Kreskin, but does anyone know about Kreskin's sexuality?
