    Is it just me or are these gay love scenes a bit intense for daytime. I know the gay storyline was a bold move for Days, but some of the love scenes between the men and women on the show lately have not seemed so intense.

    I wonder if anyone else is a bit turned off by the scenes.

    I got used to the kissing, but I hope they skip the love scenes, Do what they did today, pan up to the picture above their bed.

    I get it, they are playing the gay game.  But, too much is too much!!

    Sonny was really hateful to Lucas today.

    And according to spoilers, Nick and Gabi will end up in bed probably soon.  They haven’t known each other more than two or three days. They would really be pushing getting intimate  way too soon.

    I had to look away.  I haven’t heard anything about either actor being gay so, if they are not, they must really need that job to agree to those scenes. 

    As I’ve said before, I don’t mind them being gay but I do not want to watch them making out.  It’s bad enough when they have the straight couples doing it, and I still don’t understand why they think we want to see that.  I’d be very interested to see if there are any viewers that enjoy the "sex scenes" on these shows.  I don’t want to see Victor and Maggie in an intense scene like that either.

    I also said before, they are probably doing it to please the gay guys (I don’t think lesbians care one way or the other for soaps) but I would say the majority of us are against it.  It seriously made me very uncomfortable, and really, I’m not a prude at all nor am I anti-gay.  It was just extremely distasteful.

    I can live with them doing a gay storyline, but I said from the beginning that I would not want to watch very intimate, very explicit love scenes between Chandler and Freddie.  I know they are actors, and I don’t believe they would be forced into doing a gay love scene if they did not feel comfortable with it.  I know Freddie Smith has kissed a guy on other shows; I don’t believe Chandler has.  I just believe to do an intense love scene between two homosexuals could be an indication that they are, indeed, very comfortable with it.  The first Adam on Y&R quit the show rather than do a kissing/love scene when they decided to do a gay storyline between Adam Newman (then Chris Engen (sp?)) and an attorney on the show named (of all things) Rafe.  A kiss is one thing – an intense love scene is another.

    that with these gay SLs – not just on Days but so pervasive now in all of entertainment – are unreflective of the population stats. The best figures and studies suggest gays make up no more than 1.7-4% of the population. Yet you’d think from watching film and tv it would be so much higher. Of course, the concentration of gays is higher in the arts/entertainment world so that is a factor.

    I don’t want to view graphic situations like that gay or heterosexual.  It would be very interesting to know what kind of feedback Days is getting from the viewers.

    I don’t care if there are really cameras, lights, and a bunch of other people behind the scenes.  It’s all just filler to me.  One of the best scenes ever IMHO was in Urban Cowboy when Pam takes Bud back to her apartment.  She tells him she has something to show him then opens a bedroom door.  You see a saddle on a sawhorse type thing.  Bud gives a big smile and the scene fades as she closes the door.  End of scene.  Let your imagination figure out what happened next if you please.

    I thought the rolling around on the bed with shirts off was a little bit much


    but I also think it’s a bit much when it’s a man and a woman!  Some things are better left to the imagination.

    I felt uncomfortable watching Gabby and Nick today and they weren’t even in bed yet.

    I agree with these post as I don’t want to see so much gay or straight.  I have yet to participate in a real life love scene and grab the other persons shirt and rip it open and off.   Really folks that is not romantic at all IMHO

     I agree about the gay/straight love scenes.  Some things are just better left to the imagination.  But I do have to say that I was never offended by the Bo and Hope love scenes.  They were always tastefully done and very romantic.
