The "playersexual" stuff was always a bad idea.
I completely disagree. If individual companions only had specific preferences, then many players would not be able to romance who they wanted. Shadowheart is the most popular romance. Now imagine she is only lesbian and male characters are locked out. Oh, the howls of outrage. It would be the same if she were programmed to be only heterosexual.
Companions ask, you say no, and that's the end of it. (With the exception of Astarion who can potentially bring it up twice.) A lot of women wish it were that easy in RL to stop unwanted advances.
