There are two significant exceptions in Han/Leia and Anakin/Padme, but most of the characters are never engaged in, or even hinted at being in, any romantic or sexual relationships, most prominently Obi-Wan and Luke. Not sexless, as contemporary superhero movies are often wrongly (and, in my opinion, stupidly) accused of being, but asexual. Which isn’t all that unusual in the Star Wars universe which is a largely, almost aggressively asexual universe. She has lots of interests and passions, and none of them appear to be sex.
She feels a very strong connection to her missing family, she’s a total fangirl for Han Solo, she feels great compassion for BB-8, she’s very concerned for Finn by the movie’s end, and she has a lot of pent-up anger from years of being treated like dirt. Refreshingly, unlike a handful of other suspected asexual characters like Sherlock Holmes or that sociopath on Dexter, this doesn’t mean that Rey is devoid of emotions or is distant. On top of that, she’s quite good at a lot of very technical and difficult things, like flying and engineering, which would suggest that she doesn’t spend her spare time thinking about men and women. She expresses absolutely no interest in anyone, male or female, and is either indifferent or oblivious to Finn’s obvious flirtation with her. The tricky part of labeling a character as asexual is that you’re essentially trying to prove a negative, though with Rey it’s not that difficult a case. To clarify up front: asexuality is generally agreed upon as the lack of sexual attraction toward other people, though there’s a whole spectrum ranging from “no interest” to “low interest” (not to mention a whole spectrum of romantic orientations to go along with it). It’s not confirmed or anything, and could easily be changed by information in later films (please don’t happen), but my current impression is that she’s Ace as hell, and even a cursory Google search shows that this is not an unpopular opinion.

This is great, in part because “why not?” (pretty sure the Star Wars films have zero queer characters) but more importantly because it keeps pesky shippers away from Rey, who is free to be the most high-profile asexual character in modern cinema.

A significant part of the Force Awakens viewership sensed a palpable chemistry between the characters played by John Boyega and Oscar Isaac, and the scent of yaoi in the water kicked off an editorial frenzy of everything from professional essays to tumblr photosets. If you have any interest in Star Wars and spend any amount of time online (which, honestly, is less of a Venn diagram than it is just a circle) then you probably know that the Internet really, really, really wants Finn and Poe Dameron to get together. (NOTE: For the purposes of this essay, only the six feature films are considered canon, since all novels and comics are extratexual materials, I haven’t read any, and they were mostly declared non-canon by Disney, anyway.)
