Hi, thank you for your feedback! I designed Zegha (MC) as a very shy person who keep denying that he is interested into men to speak up but his whole body rejects and keep saying yes to men, eventually he is completely gay by time goes.
If he has internal conflicts with liking men then you need to do more than having that same line if you don't want it to come off like cringe. I only say this because he's seemingly forgotten everything except that he doesn't like men. From a story standpoint its unneeded.
