OP literally called this character straight despite declaring her love for other women. I think you're giving too much credit to an argument that was blatantly biphobic.

I am not endorsing OP's argument in any way, shape, form, or fashion. I'm not expressing any opinion at all about its correctness. Just trying to explain what point OP was trying to make.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, I didn't call her straight. I said she's straight for a certain guy. If fans were saying she was gay for every girl she says she's in love with, but not gay, period, that wouldn't be as bad. I said you could call her bi if you want to. It's not what the writing intends, but canon doesn't say she's straight, so it's OK to say she's bi. I said that right there in the secret.

Re: OP

You're already using "straight" in an idiomatic sense that doesn't assume that it determines the entirety of a person's identity

So how are you seriously angry at people for saying that she's gay in what is often a similarly idiomatic sense

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

They're not using it in an idiomatic sense. They're not saying she's gay FOR certain girls, they're saying she's gay gay gay the gayest who ever gayed, full stop. Some are even saying they feel bad for her male friend because she's JUST SO GAY, entirely contradicting the fact that she has canonical romantic feelings for him (and that he doesn't seem to have any for her.)

Re: OP

I think that the sense you are describing is idiomatic, at least to some extent
