To which he responded with extreme disappointment (and Approval loss,of course... -5, I checked) and the scene ended abruptly.

Seriously, how is that a tasteful, NON-invasive way to put the player on the spot?
Now, while I consider my straightness a non-negotiable, incidentally I'm open-minded enough to find this more tacky than openly offensive, so I won't run in some corner of the internet to have a hissy fit about woke culture ruining everything or some shit...
But when you get more, uh, conservative players being made uncomfortable by this type of scenario, can you honestly blame them for voicing malcontent?
Because after a certain point it doesn't really matter how much you agree with their worldview. They have the same right to not have their identity being made a mockery by the game they are playing.

I agree, that this sounds very invasive ( it's actually similar to my Daisy experience). But like Queen, I 'm sure, this is a bug. I would report this too. I had nothing like that so far in my game and a friend desperately tries to romance Gale, but it doesn't work. So it looks like the romances are pretty broken atm.
I guess, the more people report this, the quicker it will be fixed.
