“Days of Our Lives” under fire for not having newlywed gay couple kiss at their wedding

My God, it's 2025!

They don’t want grandma to stroke out.

R2, grandma can’t find her story on Peacock.

Christopher Sean stays beautiful.

We were saving the kiss for our wedding night threesome with the whore Paul is gifting Andrew as the groom’s gift.

Haha. Stroke. Haha.

They were shown, post fuck, in bed earlier in the episode. It's not like Days shied away from that, maybe the writer thought people would be bored with a kiss.

If what r6 says is true, it probably wasn't due to homophobia. Unless one of the actor's refused... (IDK if the actors are gay or straight. Not my thing...

Days has never shied away from treating the gays like everyone else, including love scenes. If someone is going to get hung up on a kiss, they haven't been watching the show. I haven't been to a wedding in a while. Do people still kiss at the end?

Anyone watching Days of Our Lives is, at minimum 70, so it makes sense.

If it's so gay friendly that it shows gay fucking on air, why shy away from showing a kiss?

hate to repeat my comment, but I seriously wonder if one of the actors refused? A kiss on the lips might be more "eww" for a homophobic straight guy to do than simulated sex.

Maybe the hug has come to symbolize and mean more than the traditional wedding kiss.

The actor playing Andrew is openly gay IRL, and the one playing Paul has had numerous gay sex scenes on this show. Maybe one of them had the flu that day.

I'm with R11.

R13, has the one playing Paul ever had a KISSING scene, though?

Yep.

..

Christopher Sean, who plays Paul, is straight but has always been a really supportive ally. He has always seemed genuinely grateful and honored for the role.

I would find it hard to believe that he refused to play a kiss.

There haven't been any real sex scenes. Just scenes where they are in bed, presumably naked, in a post-sex state having pillow talk. It usually ends with a peck on the lips kiss.

Maybe the producers think a peck on the lips is fine but a full on, deep wedding kiss isn't

From about 5:30 on...

Maybe Andrew’s chin kept getting in the way.

I guess it’s better than the shoulder pat between male partners we used to be stuck with.

R20 - BOTH their chins, in that photo!

What kind of shit is this? Wedding with no kisses.

That does seem really weird and I doubt it came from either actor.

How can two men have sex? I’m confused? He’s not setup like me.

Why I won't attend any fictional daytime drama gay weddings where the couples kiss

Amateurs

Sorry, I’m STILL traumatized and unforgiving about Susan and the husband arguing in the living room while the baby outside through the open door on the back-yard, has fallen off the swing! 😱🥺

Imagine the frau outrage if a heterosexual couple didn't kiss.

R28, that happened on the show?
