Kugai:
In some ways I agree with DSL.
It seems to me he's one of those guys who overcompensate for a lack of social confidence and/or graces and can't understand why they keep getting proverbially (and on the odd occasion. literally) kicked in the balls when they say or do something totally douchey.

For me, it's that Clinton doesn't have much in the way of emotional maturity. He acts like and talks like a teenager. Claire does too but only with him. As a general rule, she actually manages quite mature interactions with most people which, given that she likely had a pretty difficult time growing up due to her Trans status, is quite remarkable really.
Here's the thing: Setting aside apparent triggered behaviours, Claire can be thoughtless and a bit snappy with other people. However, the only time she's out-and-out childishly offensive is with Clinton. I'm wondering if this tells you more about Clinton (and, by extension, how he interacts with Claire) than anything else.

I agree with your analysis. For what it's worth, Clinton is only 21, which I believe makes him the youngest member of the cast. He really isn't much older than a teenager.

Youngest aside from Sam and the AnthroPCs, anyway.
edit -- Sam and the AnthroPCs would be a pretty awesome name for a band.

Well, except for Sam. And they do have a lot in common in behavior.

Fair, I forgot about Sam.
