Haven’t you thought that it’s done to show how unfair and devious Cheryl is? That’s what the writers or artists wanted to deliver, that Cheryl will go to any length just to get what she wants. And actually, it exploits men more than women because it showed that men went to their lemonade stand just because of a beautiful girl in bikini. Oh, and there’s the rationale of humor too.

I went searching for information, but could find very little on Pat mentioned anywhere online, and nothing with a pronoun.

I was commenting on the creative team for this issue — I wouldn’t presume to know the makeup of Archie’s internal staffers. If you’d like to share some names, I’d appreciate it.
