Since they mentioned "confessing to a man makes you gay" before, I REALLY have to wonder at the sexuality of these genderswapping characters, here...

I mean, a lot of them seem fine with having sex with a man after transforming. (At least, they don't treat it as a wholly traumatizing rape as a straight man would generally react to being forced to have sex with a man would.) They are fine with "heterosexual" sex no matter what gender they happen to occupy at the moment... but also can be attracted to women while also a woman, themselves... and they can desire men before they become women, just so long as they intend to feminize them, later...

I mean, is bisexuality the default and accepted sexuality, but just liking men, alone, (I.E. "purely gay") looked down upon?

I believe liking manly men while staying as a man is looked down upon socially (since Mickey as a child dislike the notion) but obviously everyone has to deal with the fact that the only women around are formerly male eventually, and Mickey has gotten over it by the time he comes of age (before he lost and became a she).

Roland is just a sexual deviant.

Maybe, but Roland's a deviant for liking breasts that much, and the gender flip didn't seem to do anything about his/er love of breasts or attraction to women, which begs the question of how much the whole genderflipping process actually affects sexual orientation.

Oh, and next chapter is up.

In a previous chapter, where the barmaid was telling the story of those two travelers who overused their eggs until they broke, it was mentioned that because of the low population, making yourself a woman whose incapable of procreation ('Eggless') was seen as an act of deplorable anarchism and rebellion.

Being purely homosexual is probably seen in the same way, if not even worse. Because, you are not only not producing children yourself, but you are also preventing another man from doing so, either as a woman or by procreation with women.
