Members robbwolff Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Exactly. I've known quite a number of people who started have different feelings/desires later in life. My former supervisor was an out and proud lesbian for well over two decades. She was (and still is) a very vocal activist for GLBT rights. Then, about 13 years ago, she started dating a man. They're still together and happily in love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Then who was the Melrose equivalent to Kelly Andrews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dio Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 who says he's just discovering it? Maybe, he's had feelings for men all his life and been denying them in favor of that 'perfect' straight ideal? He has jumped into serious relationship after serious relationship, and even married young. what I find dumb is there hasn't been 'that guy' what makes Kevin finally go for it? I wonder if it might be newly single Noah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted May 26, 2015 Author Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Remember Kristin Davis' character Brooke? I have to believe Kelly falls along the same lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dio Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 i think the spoilers are exaggerating... I don't think Avery will become a psycho, at least not in the classical soapy sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dio Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 hmm, I wonder if that's why they cast that guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Well for me personally, I've always known and all of my friends that are LGBT have always known. It is refreshing to hear that someone else's journey was not the same as mine. However, I am glad that you acknowledge that Pratt would not be the best candidate to tell this story given his history [as I mentioned earlier too]. Well then Y&R should've given us hints over the years. Or at least the past year. I just find it odd [and a bit disturbing] that Kevin came on as a predator targeting young girls but now he'll possibly [if true] have feelings for men. I wish this story would've been given to Fen as someone stated earlier. I'd believe it more. I just don't see it for Kevin and I hope I don't offend anyone by saying that. It's possibly b/c of his history on the show combined with my hatred for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Aside from myself and my husband, I know many people who didn't know their sexuality until later in life, some even in their 40s and older. Just as I know folks who came to the realization earlier in life. Everyone's journey is different. As for Y&R giving hints that Kevin is gay, that's not realistic. Why would previous writing regimes give hints about Kevin's sexuality when they weren't intending to make the character gay? If this is the story that Pratt plans, then it's on him to plant the seeds of the story. (I say that as a writer myself.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Wait, do we know for sure if they're going in the gay direction, or is this just speculation/wishful thinking? That just seems very far fetched, and the spoiler worded in such a way to bait viewers and exploit their knowledge that Greg in gay and recently married IRL. It also seems that they tried something very similar with Philip's return a few years ago, which was a huge bust, so I'm not sure I see them repeating that, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 It's speculation. Hopefully there will be no gay characters on this show anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 What if the something that "isn't right" were that Kevin now has a doppelgänger as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 Well, I don't want straight characters on what Y&R has become. Seriously, when I read these spoilers, I thought they were fake at first. Blood thirsty Neil, crazy Avery (as if this show needs one more crazy blonde) and Adam seeing ghosts? I can't believe this is real (reel) life. Slick Jones: Yeah, enough crazy women. This writing is pathetic and insulting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rlj Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 There is no legit spoiler from Pratt or the megs bout a unstable Avery, his summer previews says the opposite, seems boring Davery is endgame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 26, 2015 Members Share Posted May 26, 2015 In that last interview, didn't either Pratt or JFP also call Phyllis crazy? I think even if Avery doesn't go off the rails but becomes emotionally unmoored, I still think it's overkill. Why can't it for once be a man who grapples with a psychological/psychiatric unravelling?
