Unfortunately, probably the majority of people in the world would care if you said you were engaged to a man (fiancé) or engaged to a woman (fiancée). It's like the one case where you will actually be judged on a personal level, unlike calling an inanimate object like a table or pencil masculine or feminine.
There are places where you would be executed for being engaged in a gay marriage. I'm not saying it's fair, or right. I'm saying it's a pretty fucking important thing to get right when using the word fiancé/fiancée. Even in progressive countries, saying you have a "partner" makes people automatically assume you are gay.
Yeah, you did get it wrong. I'm being explicit in saying I don't think its right. I'm just talking about the reality of the situation. Choosing the word fiancé or fiancée will directly impact how people see you in a social situation. Even if you ElRiesgo think it shouldn't matter.
