  • Being offended by somebody "calling themselves straight" is stupid and fragile.

  • Being "proud of being straight because somebody else is proud of being queer" is stupid and fragile.

  • Being "content with being straight and wanting to label yourself as such in an environment where that makes sense" is reasonable.

I dont play the game so I dont know the context but I assume labeling yourself straight does not make sense in a fishing game and as such it is most likely about the second point

Why are peoples sexual orientations part of this fishing game at all?

Because people like to express themselves. Were social creatures. You'd might as well ask why hats or different coloured fishing rods are part of this fishing game.
