Maybe because the two scenes served two very different purposes? Molly and Sherlock are friends, well as much friends as someone can be with Sherlock and the kiss was an expression of that. The Sherlock/Moriarty was obviously played for laughs, but I thought it was mocking more the idea of these two particular characters getting together because they're mortal enemies and Moriarty was determined to destroy Sherlock and the fandom obsession of hooking two guys up even when it makes absolutely no sense rather than the fact that they're men. Although would there really have been less complaining if they had kissed since it was pretty obvious we weren't meant to take any of it seriously?

Rationalize it all you want; I'll always believe there was something fishy going on behind the scenes regarding that double standard.

That's your right. But there are other just as valid explanations for the scene. I don't know what was in the mind of the writer. It's possible he was mocking gays, but it's just as likely they were mocking fans and their theories generally especially since part of the episode was all about poking fun at all the wild theories about what happened on the roof none of which were treated particularly seriously.

Please explain why Sherlock/Irene gets treated as a legitimate ship and Sherlock/Moriarty does not, when they are both criminals who tried to fuck him over?

Now of course Irene didn't actively try to kill him like Moriarty did, but she was still working with Moriarty against him and I very much doubt she would have cared at all if Sherlock had ended up dead.

Is the fact that Moriarty actively worked to end Sherlock while Irene didn't not enough? Perhaps, you should also consider that Sherlock went to great lengths the save the woman. I mean. I'm not saying it's likely, because asexual or not, Sherlock spurns sex, but Irene didn't try to kill John at any stage where Moriarty did.
