Also, as to not knowing definitively, [=AfterElton.com=] does have some WordOfGod on the subject: \\\"Renly is “gay in the books, too,” says George R.R. Martin, the author of the bestselling novels. . . .“I never meant to make it a mystery,” Martin says. “I like to handle things subtly. I couldn’t ever actually say, ‘such-and-such is gay,’ because, as I’m sure you know, the word wasn’t invented until the 60s. And I’m talking medieval times, and I’m not going to say, ‘so-and-so is gay.’ But I thought it was pretty clear in context.”\\\"

So he is using modern terminology, and out-and-out saying they\\\'re gay, not bi or poly or fluid or some no longer existent medieval expression of sexuality. This could shape our discourse a bit.

Not sure if this is actually in opposition to what you were saying or completely compatible, but I thought I\\\'d put my two cents in.
