Members bakedghoti Posted February 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 Face of the show. Show divas. Call it whatever you want. Point is the main divas/faces of the shows are not paired with men of color. As for Stephanie, hello? Massimo Marone, anyone? He's Ridge and Nick's biological father. And she carried on with homeless Adam, who was rumored to be the missing Adam Alexander, Sally's ex-husband and Macy's father. And Steph made out with Clarke, and then pushed him to Kristen. As for Brooke, she's slept through the Forrester and marone clans. But tay, a lesser character, slept through 3 clans: Forresters, Marones and Logans. Incidentally both clans are white. Days doesnt usualy have another man for marlena or Hope. That sounds like a flimsy excuse not to pair them with men of color, and I'm not beginning an argument there. JMHO. As for the lgbt issue, I think the topics should be discussed separately. Otherwise this will turn to a luke/noah thread. I began this topic about the main divas/faces of the soaps not paired with men of color, and I'd like to stick to this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jody Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 Viki was quite Fond of Antonio. I thought that People didn't like Antonio and Jessica Together because They were Boring or She was Clingy or Unfaithful and Cheated on Him or that She was Acting Stupid and He was Angry. Also, John McBain was with Evangeline and so were Todd Manning and so was Cristian Vega so there was A Hispanic Man and Black Woman. Jody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 Another World planned to pair Felicia (definitely a diva!) with a black editor ,Marshall. But,for whatever reason,things never progressed. Linda Dano was excited about the story and working with Randy Brooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bakedghoti Posted February 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 However, the main divas of oltl (viki and dorian) are not paired with men of color. And the main divas of soaps in general are not paired with men of color. It seems like interracial relationships are reserved for supporting characters.

Members JackPeyton Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 face of the show & Divas of the show are diff, IMHO. but hwatever, i understand what yiou are saying... I didnt know any of that (well i knew mass was ridges dad, but ateph.mass never hooked up on screen). I have only watched BB for a few years and i have never seen steph with anyone but eric. I dont see what taylor sleeping with men from 3 fams and brooke with men from 1 had anythign to do with, but regardless, both are whores and i am kinda shocked BB has ne ver paired with one with anyone but white men, but then again BB is a rather small show who only sues family members from a few familys, but then again thats no excuse. Who was hector paired with? I do not think it is flimsy at all. In 2o years marlena has been with two men. (John & Roman, and she was only with john because he was at one time roman... and maybe that alex northa dude aka the real original roman...). Hope has only been paired with Bo and patrick, now when she was Gina thats another story. But i do agree days seems to play it same race in couples. lexi always has affauirs, but only with other black people. Days did dabble in Chelsea/jett, but they dropped that and him fast (thank god) I understand what you are saying, but again, if you want to get tohe root of why, it is the same reason why LGBT couples are never done with main people. They do go hand in hand. I agree anout D & V, both have had many men and never one of color. However i disagree, when jessica was with Anotnio she was very much the star of that show and front and center. But she isnt the face of oltl like v is.

Members Andrew Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 I am waiting to see a Lexie/Bo triangle or a Lexie/John, in the past maybe a Lexie/Mike triangle, it is so silly that Abe being to only black character on Days, that means that Lexie exept for Celeste had to be paired with the only male character who was black, and when she has cheated with him, have they ever had her have a sexy romanche with a white character, now it where latinAmerican Brandon Walker and there where Thomas " Tek " Cramer. Renee Jones who is a beautiful lady, should be paired with a man above!......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bakedghoti Posted February 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 stephanie kissed mass a number of times onscreen while very much married to eric. there was a steph/eric/sally/mass quadrangle. she was kissing mass then also. steph was still married to eric, but she didn't want mass to get involved with sally. so steph rushed over to kiss mass while he was on a date with sally. well i think it is flimsy for all the soaps. b&b using the 30 minute format as an excuse as to why its main divas steph and brooke have never been paired with men of color is flimsy IMO. the lower tiered tay was paired with hector. she carried on an emotional affair with him while married to ridge. but she only kissed him i think. they were never intimate i think. BUT again tay is a lesser diva compared to the MAIN divas/faces of b&b: steph and brooke. steph and brooke have never been paired with men of color. the main divas of the other soaps have never been paired with men of color. as for the lgbt comparison, i disagree. but if you want to discuss that and defend why you think they go hand in hand (which i disagree with), then begin that as a topic. MAIN POINT: the big names/divas/faces of soaps have never been paired with men of color. atwt's carly and lily, b&b's steph and brooke, days' marlena and hope, gh's carly, gl's reva, oltl's viki and dorian, y&r's sharon, nikki and katherine. days' lexie, atwt's margo are not big names/main divas/faces of their soaps. it appears that soaps reserve the interracial romances with supporting characters, while the big names/main divas/faces of the soaps are paired with white leading males.

Members bakedghoti Posted February 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 this is my point exactly. these characters (simone, faith, keesha) are supporting characters. they are not the main divas/faces of their soap. these characters are not on the same level as atwt's lily and carly, b&b's stephanie and brooke, days' marlena and hope, gl's reva, oltl's viki and dorian, etc. the main divas are not being paried with men of color.
