I choose to assume that Ianto's "I'm only gay for Jack" speech was a way of winding up his sister
It's a story he's written before; character committed to being X sexuality falling for someone outside of X. (Bob and Rose, in which Bob is a gay man falling for a woman, apparently based on a RL friend of RTD's.)
I'd choose to interpret it as... Ianto'd never even considered being bi before Jack. Never thought about men like that, and is far enough towards the het side of the scale for it not to have crashed into his awareness. And post-Jack, well... who could compare with that?
