Glad to hear that you're coming back to what you were doing so well before
p.s. My memory may be faulty but wasn't Peppermint Patty keen on ol' Chuck?

Wasn't she also a lesbian, though?
Not sure how that would have impacted on poor Charlie's masculinity.

There was always the Patty/Marcie relationship
but I thought the sexuality interpretation was brought by some (many) readers rather than intended by the artist or expressed by the character.

I'm pretty sure they said the same thing about Bert and Ernie.
But I mean, come on.

I always thought the point was that Charlie was blind to Patty's attraction to him.
I was going to say that he sought out Lucy's attention though she wasn't interested in him as she hung around Schroeder (the piano player)

I always thought
pattie liked charlie and marcie liked pattie.
If they were a little older, charlie could have had a good thing on his hands.

Yep.
Peppermint Patty thought Charlie Brown was great. But in the world of Peanuts she was a weirdo who couldn't be trusted. It was part of Schulz's complex world. And yes, Marcie was presented as in love with her which further complicated matters. Thank you for the kind words.
