1. The way it was done in season 3 was horrible. They left the scene ambiguous on purpose and then claimed "Mulan is a lesbian" in an interview. A character's sexuality should not be revealed in an interview, it should be on show.

2. We saw on the show that Mulan has feelings for phillip, so claiming she's fully lesbian is really offensive to bisexuals.

3. They left it "open" and we have'nt heard anything about that character for 2 seasons, they didn't even mention her. I know the actress wasn't available, but they should not have started a storyline they couldn't gaurantee to continue and one episode two seasons later is too little too late.

4. It seems that Ruby will be Mulan's love interest and it really bothers me since it was established that Ruby is a heterosexual woman who had a serious relationship with men. Changing her sexualoty just because they need someone to be with Mulan so why not Ruby. Now, I don't have a problem with characters going from being straight into being gay, but it should be something organic and developed on screen (i.e. Willow from Buffy, Callie from GA). It should not be done in one episode.

5. The fact that there are no reports of them filming after 509 means that is really going to be a token and not really serious. Wow, great representation of what happens in real world. They are going to be suddenly gay without any development on screen and then travel to forgotten charaters island to never hear from them ever again. So many assumptions, many of which are wrong. Point 1 is fair enough. For Point 2, You can care for someone and not want to sleep with them, and that is how a inturpet Mulan and Phillip. For Point 3, they didn't know Jamie would be so busy for the next year and a half. And they start a lot of storylines that continue later. It's just how this show works. For Point 4, I agree with the thoughts if Red is shipped with Mulan, but all of the thoughts hold no water until we confirm that Red is being shiped with Mulan, which I am still not convinced of. For Point 5, we don't know that they haven't filmed for other episodes, and Adam and Eddy already have said things that imply they will be back, especially Mulan.
