"I wonder if he and Keiko are still together."
Translation: "I wonder if I should get with them each separately or if a threesome is on the table."
Is Riker bi in beta canon?
I don’t think specie nor gender matters to Riker
Riker knows where Data's off switch is as well as how fully functional he is.
I don't like the implication. Riker always respected in consent.
Riker knows how to turn Data off and how to turn on Data.
He fell for a genderless, androgynous alien in TNG. I think he favors feminine beauty, but wouldn't say no if, say, Garek came along.
To be fair, the whole plot point is that their species appears androgynous, but they aren’t always. The one he falls for is explicitly female, which he noticed subconsciously, and comments on once she reveals that she is actually female.
So I’d say he so much into women he sniffed out the estrogen in a species that tries their hardest to appear genderless. The ultimate heterosexual.
