The 90's were a different time.
Anything counterculture used to latch onto and adopt anything else counterculture.

Lesbians adopting Tank Girl had an additional bonus, since she was a hetero character they wouldn't be charged with "promotion of homosexuality" which was illegal at the time in the UK.

didn't Neil Gaiman put a decent amount of homosexuals in sandman?

like i remember a story where the kid of a lesbian couple dies and the fat one makes a deal with literally Death and then the black guy dies because of course he does

The UK is very strange about upholding some laws and laws like this were only used to charge someone with something (anything) to stop them rocking the boat.
Inclusion of homosexual characters wasn't the same as promotion of homosexuality.
Neil could write about whatever characters he wanted, but once people started using the likenesses of those characters in a pride parade it became illegal. However unlikely it was that charges would be pressed to silence them, they still by law 'could' be pressed.
Hence the very counterculture Tank Girl being an officially hetero character adopted to get around that.

This and hewligans haircut are still one of my favourite comics.

Hewlett is a fun guy in RL too, met him a few times.
