I chose "Tosh would label herself as bisexual" due to her comment about her family thinking that being with a woman is worse than being with an alien. It gave me the impression that Mary wasn't the first time Tosh had been attracted to a woman. Also early on there seemed to be the attitude that everyone in Torchwood is bisexual.
However, I admit this is weak evidence as this attitude seemed to change in later episodes. Gwen's only same gender experience is "under the influence". Owen's was "get out of a jam". So the "everyone is bisexual in Torchwood" argument is weakened and Tosh never again shows any interest in another woman.
I am not a fan of pulp novels, but I am film fan so I did catch the "old production code compliant story of the innocent woman corrupted by evil lesbian" vibe. I didn't think much of it at the time because I assumed we'd see more female characters in lesbian relationships.
