I can already see there being a big backlash to Finn getting a female love interest if it happens
This is now a fire that should have been put out a long time ago, but was left to fan and has now got out out of control
Exactly.
That's kinda what I think people are stocking up to do...Boyega tried to dead the shyt and people immediately started accusing him of being homophobic.
Now that they've made it "a possibility", they can construe anything outside of Finn/Poe as "Disney got cold feet" or "The fans were for it? Why weren't they?" even if that was never apart of the plan.
Most people, being objective, know that Finn and Poe weren't meant to be a "thing" in this movie. But people kept making noise (Under the guise of being humorous or sarcastic or progressive) and now a bunch of people are expecting our first black hero to be a flamer....
Even More Hope For A Gay 'Star Wars' Romance

Our only hope at this point is that Episode 8 closes the book on Finn's sexuality. They are filming, and while there were rumored rewrites, I don't think they were going to be changing a characters sexuality so late in the game. Hopefully he gets with Rey or another female....
If Isaac is clamoring for Poe to be gay, he can fight for that on his own. But it's a shame that he's dragged Boyega/Finn into this mess. And I've noticed that he hasn't said a PEEP since the movie came out. Like...he's been nowhere to be found, while Boyega has been the one sent out to talk about this nonsense. Typical.
