#DD8A"]I'll be honest though, I'm _*still_* not sure where it was made "pretty obvious" on the show itself that she was bisexual. It doesn't bother me if she is, but unless I'm completely missing something obvious, I really never saw it myself. [/bq]

 
I feel like the main problem is that a fair few people see benign friendship stuff in this series as "shipping fuel" when it really _*isn't_* all that fuel-y, especially considering how intimate this show is when it comes to friendships (none of these are tagged "shipping fuel");

The show isn't exactly afraid to have characters who are friends hug each other or hold hands without having a air of romance or shipping tacked on. For it to be bonafide ship fuel, it kinda has to go above and beyond the standard. And there's _*been_* that kinda thing both ways with Sunset, it's just been overshadowed;

Stuff like using romantic tropes like with the kitchen scene in Rainbow Rocks is a good identifier for _*bonafide_* ship fuel, because it's _*intentionally_* setting up the idea of a ship between these two characters in a way that's both clear and yet not just being outright about it (hence _*fueling_* the _*ship_*).

Or having Twilight get all blushy when Sunset compliments her, as another Sunset/PonyTwi example.

Or in this case outright having a character blush and fanboy over another acknowledging them; it's _*pretty clear_* that this is _*meant_* to be a bit of shipping fuel. And if Character A (a female) has a bunch of shipping fuel with Character B (a male) and Character C (another female), then making Character A bisexual is the easy choice to make because then your fueling of both ships between A and B and A and C make sense in-universe.
