Coronation Street Bisexual Storyline: Maria & Marcus Kiss Their Relationship Moves Beyond A Friendship.

Is sexuality always black and white or is it a shade of grey? Or is sexuality fluid? Can a gay man who identifies as a homosexual  fall in love with a woman? The British soap Coronation Street, asks these controversial questions in the new storyline with the characters Maria and Marcus.

Maria is straight, she’s dating Jason but she doesn’t really love him. Jason wants a commitment and take their relationship to the next level. Maria isn’t thrilled about Jason’s desire to move into her apartment. Jason’s family is concerned they think Maria is a flake and she’s leading him on. Meanwhile, Maria has doubts because she’s in love with her gay best friend Marcus. Marcus is tender, compassionate, and very sensitive to Maria’s feelings she’s falling in love with him.

However, Marcus is  dating Aiden and he likes him. Maria has a cancer scare and the good news is she doesn’t have breast cancer.

Marcus and Maria kiss, but how long will they deny their sexual attraction? I know some people are upset that Coronation Street is making Marcus have a romance with a woman. I think it is interesting because although Marcus doesn’t identify as bisexual, why are bisexual men invisible? I notice there is a paucity of storylines about male bisexuality and this is due to the fact it is still considered taboo. Society doesn’t seem to have a problem with female bisexuality but people seem terrified about male bisexuality.

Days of Our Lives Gay Storyline: Lucas Finally Accepts Sonny and Will’s Gay Romance!!!

I love this episode of Days of Our Lives because Lucas finally sees his son Will’s happiness is important. In a previous episode, Lucas was uncomfortable seeing Will and his boyfriend Sonny kiss in the Horton Town Square. However, Lucas realizes that he wants Will to be happy and he accepts his son is gay. I also enjoyed watching the conversation Sonny had with his uncle Victor at the coffee shop. Victor approves of Sonny dating Will and he even invites the couple to barbecue at the mansion.
