Anyway, for TV purposes, there neeeds to be lead in because we've seen Ruby for years and to randomly come back after two season s and just be a lesbian would be perplexingly odd. Well, if people don't watch the show closely enough, and are then confused, that's kind of their own fault. XD

I do agree that your take on Red though, which is why I really hope the lesbian relationship is Mulan and Dorothy. He talks about GA that doesn't follow Adam's tweets or interviews. A lot of GA thought Mulan is refering to Phillip. If the narrative needs to be explained in tweets or interviews then it is not the audience's fault. Well that's just because the audience is so heteronormative that they misread the scene. That makes it more of a society issue, that we just assume that Mulan was coming to confess her feelings about Phillip, because everyone is straight, right? So yeah, it kind of is still the audience's fault, even if it does have to do with a larger societal issue. No. It's because it was very clear in season 2 that Mulan had feelings for Phillip. Don't blame the audience about an ambiguos scene that was deliberately written that way and the pronoun game Mulan was playing in 509. When I watched Season 2 I didn't think Mulan showed a noticeable romantic interest in Phillip or Aurora. It was definitly not "very clear". Sure, they could make it easier for the auidence to understand Mulan is a lesbian, but shows don't have to spoon feed everything, and I think it actually shows how Mulan is somewhat uncomfortable with her feelings (which is a very real thing many LGBT people go through). So yeah, that's my takeaway.
