You're forgetting that Marten's dad is gay too.

KeepACoolin:
True, although he never appeared on-screen.

Only skimmed through most of the replies in this post so bare (or bear?) with me...
Hanners IS getting a lot better as far as her OCD is concerned and is shown in a few strips to have accepted an arm-around-the-shoulder hug from at least Marten (I'm working from memory here) and has recently contributed that it's because of her friends that she is more tolerant.

She intellectually understands whats going on with her, knows the physics of relationships and sex, would LIKE to be able to have a boyfriend (I think she mentioned that once around the robo-boyfriend arc) but can't control her reactions towards her phobia of germs and viruses. She's not 'emotionally' childish at all and has thought a lot about what her friends mean to her (with her discussions with Marigold) and how she would like more, but she's readily accepted that she's no way at all prepared for one because of her OCD. This is unlike Faye who is emotionally unprepared for a relationship - although getting slowly better - but more of a mental unprepareness.

I'm not an expert in psycology or anything, but that's my 2 cents :)

Awesome post workingrobbie. I agree with you 100%  I dont know what gets these "shippers" to get all crazy with the mari-hanners thing.  Dont see it happening.  I actually could see Hanners at least trying to get a dude but it would be on accident and she would be like a dog chasing cars.  Wouldnt know what to do when she got one.  She has changed a lot since she was first introduced.  And I agree whole heartedly that she is aware of her problem and she is not child.
