Would you say that it was “comically florid and antisocial” if a straight guy had spoken passionately about reuniting with his gal?

The dialogue option in question is ‘I’m heading back to camp’.

If a fellow straight dude responded ‘I’m about to bang the brains out of the girl beside me here’, I’d have the same reaction as I have to Dame Aylin.

As in, you’re an absolute unhinged lunatic.

In modern speak they call it ‘too much information’.

It’s bonkers.

Her sexuality is irrelevant to how absolutely mad this line of dialogue is. A substituted straight character would be equally repellent because it's so completely random and antisocial and gratuitous.

It’s just nuts.

How can you respect someone who advertises their sex life, out of the blue, when you’re just saying ‘I’m heading off to bed’?

It’s never implied either that she’s this crazily arrogant, because for the most part she seems normal enough.

Anyway, to be banned for one week for the above is even crazier than the Aylin writing. Whoever did that needs to be wheeled out to padded cell.
