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
And again I don't think anyone understands this but the label should be one of empowerment not classification. To ask about it in the way these posters do shines a negative light on being gay and treats it as some sort of disease you should know if you have. Anybody can call themselves gay if they like and that's the way it should work. People are not asking, do I see myself as gay? Which is to some a powerful question, but they are asking Do You, the internet see me as gay? Which is a stupid and pointless question. I am not trying to feed anyones insecurities or internalized homophobia
Okay so asking "am I a man into dudes" a bad light. It sounds like you really hate the homosexual population and would prefer to pretend they don't exist. I mean they are just people like anyone else. No need to be so hateful
You're so dense. I don't need to prove shit to you, but don't act like you know people. You are in no way trying to understand what is going on and simply trying to position yourself as some hero to gays taking down a homophobe. Sorry, but you might want to try that somewhere else.
IIN I hate the question, does this make me gay?

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