What male soap actors are gay? Part 2

Keep the discussion going here.

by Anonymousreply 99May 21, 2023 10:48 PM

if you could pick one guy in soaps to be gay, which one would it be?

by Anonymousreply 1February 6, 2017 1:10 AM

Closet gay Wes Ramsey is involved with Laura Wright. Yeah like that's real.

R2 didn't you read that the soap press says that LW has found love again so how can it be that she would get with a closet gay and the soap press doesn't lie.

Right R3. The soap press doesn't lie. They just omit the truth.

Here's a 2006 quote on the subject from Mimi Torchin, founding editor-in-chief of the now defunct "Soap Opera Weekly:"

[quote] The mainstream press still doesn't care about soap actors very much. The soap press is going to protect them. It's just what we do. We don't out our stars. We respect the privacy of the people we cover. If they don't want to say they're gay or lesbian, it's not our job to reveal that. Most of the soap fans don't want to know that stuff anyway."

by Anonymousreply 6July 8, 2017 9:48 PM

I can respect that position, but the last sentence is hilarious. Hopefully what she meant was our delusional frau readers don't want to know the truth about the men they're lusting after.

The soap digests and weeklys pretty much outed actors in their interviews. There were always the ones who were really artistic- who painted and were into the arts big time and were single. It didn't take a lot to connect the dots.

R63 That has been discussed SO many times on the DL I'm surprised every single person who has EVER posted her does not know it.

Jean LeClerc, who played Jeremy for many years on AMC, was with Christopher Durham, who was on CAPITOL and later on Ryan's Hope and As The World Turns.

They split after one of them (this is the part I am never sure about as to who) tested positive.

Just watched Will/Paul bed scenes on YT and they did a lot more than Will/Sonny. Freddie's triple chins and gut obviously limit what they want shown. Even if Freddie slimmed down, Will and Sonny have no chemistry. The gay theme of the show was lost when Chris Sean left.

Used to be knee deep in the soap world when I started out - Back when there were 6 shows taped on the West Coast. Who was gay or a lesbian was pretty much an open secret. None of em really hide it. Every press person knew who was, who was not, what to talk about what not to talk about. The funny part was the producers were often clueless, unless they were also gay. I remember when Ricky Martin was on GH and the network I worked for ( you can exclude ABC lol) kept saying "we need a ricky martin type where can we get one?" and I would laugh and say "have you tried WeHo?" and I would get blank looks.

I believed that Strudel was gay on DOOL. His sex scenes with Paul were the most convincing gay scenes I ever saw in my life, outside of porn (and even more convincing than a lot of porn). Strudel was a great bossy bottom, riding Paul's bat to ever greater heights of pleasure.

I was so sad they killed Will. Apparently, so was Strudel, who reacted by spending all of his DOOL money on a series of uglier, larger, and more career-destroying tattoos over the following months. Poor boy never played anything but hipster and drug addict guest spots after that.

He was engaged to a woman for awhile, but apparently she broke it off. Maybe she watched some of his Strudel videos, and found his love of a good man as convincing as many of us did.

R72 do you mean 2015 or 2017 or both? because the style that happened in 2015 most likely won't happen again in soaps after the complaints by puritans,homophobes and trolls. Who said the show went a step to far with those scenes or the homophobes who hated because it was gay.

Mark La Mura was married to an actress named Elizabeth Maclellan.
