I've started work on a fantasy, in a quasi-medieval setting, that has two gay lead characters, one male and one female. I don't/won't hold back in showing their love lives, but my question is: should I call them "gay" or "lesbian" due to the "time period", and have them identify that way? Like, in a fantasy world, would - or should - those markers of sexual orientation exist or be used? I don't mean for these questions to offend anyone, I am genuinely curious.
