If you're counting all of Seguin's douchebro-i-ness as something special snowflake-y in, I can see that as tinhatting. But if you're just talking about the one tweet, he was (unintentionally) calling himself gay too, because he was dumb and didn't pick up on the intendre, and I can see how it would be fun to assume he meant it in fic.
