That's awful. :(

And for the record, I've never seen his as unquestionably gay. Usually it doesn't take much for me to queer him up (there's just so many opportunities in canon!) but then, you know, the fic I'm writing now, he's straight straight straightity straight, and it is an absolute bear to convince him otherwise.

Just looking at canon with an unjaundiced slasher's eye, I think there is a lot of room for a lot of different sexualities. I think you could argue for asexual (funnily, his interactions with Chaya ping me that way more than they do het), obviously with Nancy, Chaya, that Teyla-kiss, Larrin, you could go for het, as a sort of a guy who prefers casual relationships because he fucks up the ones with people he cares about (there are other ways to see the het, I'm sure, but that's the way it reads to me), and then there's the relationship with Rodney, which reads UST off the charts to me (but which is not exclusively gay, as the only guy he seems to have *that* sort of chemistry with is Rodney (though I'd prefer it not be an 'I'm not gay, I just love Rodney'-type thing, personally).

I'm sorry that happened, bb. That sucks. Sometimes people are unthinking about things, and they don't realize the kind of hurt they can cause. There is a difference between canon and fanon for a reason.
