It never came to the table, but when you talk theoretically about all the women on Themyscira and how many years she was there, then what he said makes sense. In this movie she does not experience any bisexual relationships. But it’s not about that. She’s a woman who loves people for who they are. She can be bisexual. She loves people for their hearts.”
If you were wondering if there would be any hint of sexual relationships on Themyscira in Patty Jenkins big screen adaptation of DC Comics' most iconic heroine, there's your answer.
