...what did she suggest calling ourselves instead?

She calls herself gay usually. Which is not wrong if you take gay = homosexual I guess, but at least where I am at, many people treat "gay" as a continuum, they say "a little bit gay" or bisexual people will be like "oh yeah I'm so gay" even though they are bi. Not trying to bash bisexuals, though! It seems like gay erasure and bi erasure...
