I don't understand the point you're making. I'm in agreement it is not clear cut, and I would go even further to say that 'cuts' whatsoever are completely arbitrary in this case. If there's an understanding that a person is unique in their preference, why should it hold any relevance if their behavior is considered 'gay' or not?
They are asking if the behavior indicated their sexuality not if society considers it gay. Like "if I like pegging am I gay" is to say they believe only a gay man would want it in the button because he desires penis. Therefore is gay. It's not hard to understand why this is confusing. Demanding everyone know it right away means you don't understand it's sometimes hard to figure out.
That's a fair point, and changes my view to an extent. However I see it then as a matter of the poster's ignorance. To really break down the question in your example that question is, "I enjoy receiving penetrative sex from a woman, do I enjoy receiving penetrative sex from a man?". I don't approach this with much sensitivity as I have no reason to believe any of these posters are gay. I have no demands people find what they like, and use labels if they like, but my point is the label brings nobody closer with truth. And used in this sense implies some false commonality amongst gays. Their shared experience lies only in their treatment and cultures developed in response. It is not as though 'knowing you're gay' gives you any further insight as to what you like or who you are.
Homosexuality exists if you want to label it or not. People simply want to understand what they are into. You really can't blame people for trying to understand themselves even if you don't feel like calling it something. Complaining about people saying stuff like "I like cooking am I gay" is a more realistic complaint because that is a cultural stereotype and not accurate or something all gay's are into. Getting angry people want to understand what they are into is irrational.
I feel we are in agreement. Perhaps it is just more obvious to me than you that cum eating, pegging, and attraction to transgender people are infact even more ridiculous to connect to homosexuality than cooking
IIN I hate the question, does this make me gay?

It's understandable in such cases. Sexuality is not always so clear cut.

These people are literally talking about their attraction to women and asking if it makes them gay.
