Yess. Like hell, I've been dealing with this so much lately!!

It's completely ridiculous, imo, If people like, relate, or feel, for that character. Eliminating the canon aspect of those troubles might as well be throwing up a big middle finger at everything anyone facing such a crisis might go through in order to accept themselves and work towards being comfortable with who they are.
Because you are absolutely right 100%. Working out a fic where she accepts and deals with her denial and homophobia would not only be more interesting, (let alone accurate). It'd be more beneficial to the people who actually relate to her, and need that comfort that fiction always gives, that if she can get through this, then maybe I can too. Rather than skip the details and getting lost in the delusion that making her as gay as possible is more feeding into a pipe dream rather than as an existence that could be had.

The young lesbian who reacted to you in such a way is very clearly is still going through some issues of her own. If she can tolerate the character in canon, but cannot conceive the idea that she could be anything other than a broken record of scratching on and over again what a big queer she is, then quite frankly I'm concerned for her.
