Line 102:
Even though Quinn refuses to be tied down to one guy (for reasons of wanting multiple men to serve as proverbial slaves to her every whim), and is perfectly comfortable flirting with other guys while on dates and stealing other girls' boyfriends, Quinn is rather conservative in terms of sex itself. She has on multiple occasions avoided or rejected the sexual advances of older men, and was quite shocked when she believed that Daria had lost her virginity to her boyfriend [[Tom Sloane]].
When asked whether Quinn was sexually active during the series, [[Glenn Eichler]] replied, "Quinn, no. She was all about attracting guys, not acting on it.
Indeed, Quinn is very squeamish regarding anything overtly sexual, to the extent of refusing to participate in a lesson in sexually suggestive posing with male students during a modeling workshop ("[[This Year's Model]]" and recoiling from close physical contact when Joey, Jeffy and Jamie all attempt to dance with her, saying she doesn't slow dance until "at least" the fifth date ("[[Daria Dance Party]]"). Pertinent comments about the show's creator's views on Quinn and sex appear in two fan-conducted interviews on [[DVDaria]].
Quinn was never known to be using alcohol or drugs. She once threw a keg party when her parents were out ("[[Gifted]]"), was elected "keg queen" by a frat house during a college tour ("[[College Bored]]"), and has been to a number of bars on dates ("[[Speedtrapped]]"). However, she also declined a chance to drink underage and was very concerned about her friend [[Lindy]]'s apparent alcoholism in "[[Is It College Yet?]]", even at the risk of driving her away and ending their friendship.
