Why would "gender swapping" (putting gay people in the shelf I guess) make poorly communicating, or even lying about, intentions be okay then?

Because 99 times out of 100 that isn't the case, it's almost always men who cannot fathom interaction between men and women outside of familial and potential mates.

Again, what about gender makes that okay/not okay?

Edit: poor communication goes both ways here. It's bad to lead someone on if your not going to follow through with it. It's also not okay to try to be friends with them to fuck them.

We can do this without enforcing gender stereotypes.
