I know this is completely off topic, but the question about X-23's sexuality is pretty thorny.

The claim that she is a lesbian has been floating around ever since that picture of Jubilee biting (literally) X-23's neck. That isn't the most damning evidence, but it is the earliest I could find. Ever since, one camp has supported this theory.

Meanwhile, as far as I can tell, Angel's relationship with X-23 has only been in canon since All-New X-Men. Some people might complain that Hopeless should not be the authority on any X-books, but the fact is that, in canon, Angel has developed feelings for X-23, and she likewise, reciprocates said feelings. They do favors for each other all the time. But this all occurred post-Bendis, and has only been around for around a year.

Then there is the conclusion you get from just examining her past. As I stated, in her first appearence ever, in the short-lived NYX, she was a prostitute, who has sex with sadists because, well, it paid. So some people think she just will go with anybody who truly cares for her, regardless of gender. This would explain everything I said above, and truthfully, seems the most satisfying to me, as it would still keep the clearly-documented, currently-ongoing (literally last issue) Angel-X-23 relationship while also reconciling this with her weird sexual past.

Take everything you said as you would, and remember that in comics, sexuality isn't set in stone. Iceman wasn't outed until ~2015, and asking Hopeless seems...hopeless. If you have any scane to convince me otherwise, feel free to share, but for now, I'm sticking to that last paragraph.
