Oh yes, I think the comments by the press make complete sense. There's a reason we all know what they mean by 'confirmed bachelor' after all. Plus, they want an angle for this story and this would be a juicy one.

I'm more annoyed by the comments like the one from the pub owner in Hound. I loved it at first and was thrilled that they had some gay characters that weren't stereotypical like 'Jim' had been. But then I started to think about it. Was this comment supposed to carry more weight or be funnier because it was said by a gay character? Insinuating he had gaydar or something? Because otherwise he's just assuming any two men who travel together are a couple, and I doubt that's true either.

I hate it when people get nitpicky like this and I don't want to see anything behind this. It's probably all meant in good fun.

I did love the fact that Irene Adler asked if they were a couple. Or at least, if John was jealous. At first I thought it was going to be yet another in a long line of similar remarks. But then there was that exchange of 'I'm not gay/I am, yet here we are.' It almost give me hope they might take all the comments somewhere. At least it's a definite acknowledgment that it is a possibility even if John is straight and Sherlock...Sherlock.

Oh yeah, completely agree with you there.
