That sounds pretty bonkers to me, but I believe you. I think it's possible that the person in question could be a closeted lesbian, but also, butch-leaning straight women definitely exist. And even if this woman was closeted, I really don't understand at all how she could be "hurting the company" by not talking about her sexual orientation at work. It's ok to be honest, but also if you don't want to share, then you really really shouldn't have to. This sounds like the world's stupidest sexual harassment lawsuit brewing.

Oh it was bonkers, you are correct. Unfortunately she ended up being fired, which these same gossipping people were up in arms about, but I can't help but wonder if their constant shit-talking contributed. Poor lady.

You would have blown their tiny minds with this.
