*giggle* Erm, no, neither of those would be appropriate. I know you asked a question and then gave the context that made you ask it, but I was more or less just answering the question as it pertained to me.
I think it can be universally applied, in the sense that upon meeting someone, I rarely wish to discuss my sexuality outright, nor do I want to have my sexuality constantly pointed out to me. I would also feel very awkward and uncomfortable if someone were repeatedly pointing out my race, directly or indirectly.
