You aren't wrong to be annoyed by that. The thing is, why do people think that? There has been nothing at all in canon to imply that Jack is that kind of guy, or even that he ever was that kind of guy. I guess what that boils down to, for me, is that the problem is that there is NOT ENOUGH in canon to suggest that Jack is NOT that kind of guy, and the easiest way to fix that in canon would be to show that he's not that kind of guy within the confines of his relationship with Ianto, and they're not doing enough to show us that, apart from one line in TtLM. And that's where my anger comes from, from the fact that you could have gone to the loo during TtLM, missed that one line and come out of this show with that perception of Jack, as a guy who uses omnisexuality as an excuse to stick it in as many people as possible, intact. It's not good enough.
