Looks to me like you're forgetting that Steve is straight, he isn't attracted to men.

Steve hooking up with a random chick makes more sense than him hooking up with any guy.

Um…how do you know Steve is straight? He could be bisexual. Hell, the guy was born in 1918 so it wouldn't be shocking if he hadn't expressed it due to repression and shame.

da

Of course Steve is straight, because even today, no studio would risk making their male superhero queer in canon.
And still, theoretically, him hooking up with Sam (lots of parallels plus a meet-cute), Bucky (parallels/antitheses, plus Bucky basically was your typical "damsel in distress" in the first film) or Nat, if you want a het option (antitheses in every which way, and yet they find common ground and trust and friendship) would make more sense than Steve "waiting for the right partner", "it's hard to find someone with shared life experience" Rogers hooking up with a random chick, much less a young, hot relative of the one person he canonically was in love with/had a crush on and their love story was one that ended in bitter-sweet tragedy lost to seventy years on ice and could-have-beens.

I agree, especially with your breakdown of why the other characters make more sense as romantic interests for Steve. Not to mention that, in my opinion, each of those characters was better developed and better-integrated into the story.

Yup, basically this. I realize they won't go that rout because reasons you mentioned - but from a narrative point of view, pretty much everyone makes more sense than Sharon.

comic Steve is kinda bisexual... I mean there are panels that make it kinda really obvious without actually spelling it out for people.
