GH 50: Discussion for the Month of April - May 3, 2013

I get where Chit is coming from on this show that just had a ball that was supposed to be dedicated to a character who has HIV.

[dragonflies]

Seriously given all the crap she's done to him, she's lucky he didn't say worse, that was pretty tame

[VirginiaHamilton]

@ some getting hemmed up over a known slore being referred to as an STD petri dish while having zero problems calling other characters "skank" and "cvnts" in this very thread.

SON never lets me down when it comes to their hypocrisy...

[DRW50]

I think it's just a lazy remark to begin with, but AJ has a history of prejudiced comments about AIDS, and has had unprotected sex, so there's even more annoying. The problem with this type of cheap writing is you degrade both Carly and AJ. AJ is 45-50 years old and he's often written as a punk. There's no need for it.

[chicklitsandfantasies]

Everyone is written likle they are stuck in their teen years.

[ChitHappens]

You missed my point too, but I'm ok with that. AJ has called Carly whores and skanks plenty of times, and you didn't get a peep out of me.

[dragonflies]

If anyone would have an STD it would be Sonny the man whore who sleeps with anything that has two legs and knocks them up just by looking at them lol

[DRW50]

That makes him a stud. Only women are sluts and whores on soaps.

[VirginiaHamilton]

I didn't miss anything, as I simply pointed out that the outrage at AJ making an STD reference at the Slagbeast's expense is the height of hypocrisy since plenty of you have no problem making derogatory references to other female characters who you don't like. T'is all.

[Vee]

I don't know what you people are going on about - I just couldn't get over how much chemistry VM and Sean Kanan still had the other day at Kelly's, after all these years.

[VirginiaHamilton]

I'm also further amused that AJ making an STD comment/joke (someone enlighten me on which it was) at the Slagbeast is a heinous offense committed by the character/Ron's writing, considering that none of you had sh!t to say whenever that snaggletoothed skunk hurled the vilest insults at Robin for being HIV+.

[Marco Dane]

Milo and Connie look good together

[DRW50]

A lot of us probably weren't even at SON at that point (and SON didn't even exist when Carly originally made those comments). I'm confused.

[TeamEric]

This is a show that wrote a pregnancy due to unprotected sex, announced as that ball.

I mean really RC didn't even bother to pay lip service to HIV or AIDs research at that ball. I'm pretty jaded and even I was appalled at the crassness of his NB ball.

[Sapounopera]

Exactly. I have read far more offensive things on this board over the years. People make fun of someone looking fat, old, having had plastic surgery, looking like a post-op, like a heroire addict and nobody minds. Nobdy has ever been offended. Soap fans can get as mean as they want, but fictional characters have to behave and be nice to each other. I don't get this board sometimes.
