Shadows doesn't really show inner feelings, but an exaggerated version of them. The more hidden those feelings are, the more
exaggerated the shadow is. Yosuke's and Chie's personal issues weren't nearly as messed up as what other the other
characters have hidden.
Yukiko's feeling of being entrapped were literally implied by her shadow.
Kanji's idea that he could only relate with males were far exaggerated by his shadow.
Rise was demanded to live as a character, and she felt she was getting lost in it. Her shadow goes even further and show
multiple versions of herself.
Naoto's shadow is as messed up as Kanji's, attempting to change her sex.
He doesn't have to be bisexual nor straight nor gay. How do you expect a person who can't define his way to relate with people on a personal level to define his own sexuality?
The same goes to Naoto, who decided not to be a woman nor a man on a sexual level because she putted her profession over her sexuality. Her Social Link is my favorite because MC manage to break this wall and make her acknowledge herself
as a woman. I liked that this happens regardless of MC and her getting in a romantic relationship or not.
But yeah, Atlus used a clever way to play with sexuality in this game.
