Ok so...Bias

Okay so...I was catching up on my 'news' today and found this little article on Towleroad.com discussing a protest against all of the anti-gay PDA bias on As The World Turns for their gay couple Noah and Luke...affectionally dubbed "NUKE".

Nevermind that I shouldn't have an opinion on the subject since I'm not a soap fan or that I'm a bitter ice queen incapable of human emotion...but that isn't going to stop me from stating my opinion...

Okay...I may be getting old...but back when I was an impressionable young twink I would have been very pleased with a gay couple that was out and served as a positive role model. I get that some people want more gay PDA, but I think CBS should be applauded for going as far as they have gone...

Be happy that a gay relationship is on a soap opera as a regular occurence and not a ratings stunt, be happy that other young gays have positive role models, be happy that gay couples are finally making their way into the bastion of old women and young mothers.

Some fans even put together the video below to prove their point...



This looks like a lot of affection to me...but I guess straight people on soaps get more nookie

  1. Hi Rodan,

    I could use some passionate kisses. After being stood up for the past four dates I need some romance in my life. I actually even thought of taking a few extra pills of my migraine medication just so that I could get a buzz...just like the buzz I get from just one passionate kiss.

    I could us a hug.

    Your Nashville Friend,

    Thom

  2. I have to agree with Rodan on this one. People this is not gay porn it is bad overacted daytime tv! Really all that kissing is shocking. So yeah this show is so getting added to the Tivo.

    Now for the people who think this is not enough. Really....admit it you want to see full on Queer As Folk Brian McKinney Hot Bed Breaking Butt Sex. Not going to happen on CBS....yet. However, I am all for frontal nude shots of the hot Jewish gay boy on Brothers and Sisters.
