I get this but from a lesbian context. I hate when gnc/masculine/dominant women turn out to be straight. Like Abby in The Last of Us 2 game... my stomach was so upset when I realized Abby was in love with a dude (🤢).

So I do get why fans can feel "betrayed" (let down, disappointed) when an umm unique character turns out to be straight (or "cis" pertaining to whoever Tonks is... I've never read the HP books). I personally don't mind stereotypes... if a muscular gnc woman is a lesbian, that's fine by me!

I see what you mean, but "dominant" women can be straight.

I'm aware, but that really throws off my gaydar and makes me wish straight women would stop acting like lesbians! Yeah, yeah... I know GC is about crushing gender stereotypes, but it conflicts with my sexuality. 😤🤪

Well some straight women may just have a dominant/assertive personality which reads as "masculine", that's not acting.
