Well what do you expect? The LGB parts of LGBT are focused on sexual attraction. It's only natural that it ends up a focus for these characters.
The opportunity to write with characters who might share a comon experience that my character has. Sexual attraction may be part of the LGBT alphabet, but it's not the only way we relate to one another. Especially if you, or your character, is under one of the other letters. It's also often nice to play with someone who's player (and possibly character) understands your characters gender identity, challenges and direction.
It's entirely possible to find, as I've done it through other formats plenty of times.
