About assuming someones sexuality/gender again...

So it is about the question I ask before because I didn't explained it clearly. Okay so it's because someone who was a guy was being talked about liking another guy and I tell those people that we shouldn't assume that he's gay unless he says he is. And then this person told me sounding all annoyed, that why would I assume that he is a straight guy either? That's what makes me confused. Why are they getting mad at me for calling a guy "a guy"? When he is originally a guy in the first place?

They really shouldn't get upset with you for calling a guy a guy, and your right they shouldn't assume he's gay, that's how a lot of problems start. Calling him a guy didn't say anything about his preferences of being straight or not. So I believe you have it right, they didn't want to seem stupid for saying anything and tried throwing it off on you.
