BTG: March 2025 Discussion Thread

I really hope they don’t go down that route. There’s already a pervasive ideology from right wing bigots in this country that most gay people are gay because of sexual abuse they’ve experienced during childhood. BTG should stay away from feeding into that.

Bill seems to know what the situation is, so I am assuming Martin may have killed someone and it was covered up or some type of other coverup. 

See what you posted here? It's exactly why it may or may not go this way with Martin. People believing that homosexuality is associated with sexual abuse. It's all on the writers of course. We'll see.

Yes to Derek, no to Ashley.

In this case, the show then says that the reason Martin is gay is because of the molestation. Lots of gay people are claiming that in real life.

Not true. Lots of gay people are not claiming that.

Where are you getting this bullsh_it?

@Contessa Donatella we do appear to be on the same page with a lot of things with this show. Thank you for clarifying about Cady and her status.  Is my rhythm a good thing or bad thing??  I do also agree with you on Dani and Andre getting burned. 

GOOD!!!

Cady McClain... LOVE Her as Pamela yesterday.  I hope we see more of her and learn more about the character and her backstory. I would LOVE to see her have her own storyline as well.  Is Cady on contract or recurring??

Recurring. Only those whose casting was announced prior to filming (via Paramount press releases) are series regulars (as listed here).

Ok. Should I say SOME instead of LOTS? Some of you don't know the way of this world obviously.

It does feel like he was a victim of assault and probably had to kill his attacker.

Which is far from getting 'turned gay' by molestation, which is an ancient homophobic myth and not common belief among gay people.

I want Dani to get into her car drunk, drive erratically and cause Derek and Ashley to crash their car trying to avoid her and die. She goes home, passes out, not realizing she caused an accident. The story would be about her slowly realizing that it was her and trying to cover that up. You have Jacob investigating trying to find out what happened. Maybe Naomi finds out first and sabotages his case to throw him off her trail. Andre sleeping with Dani for comfort not realizing she's the one that caused him this pain. Potentially have Hayley find out and blackmail her into helping her get into better standing in the community. Oh and Id want her to keep that a secret from Bill which will cause problems in their marriage down the line

Lol! Good grief.

And people said she was functioning. Yeah... that's functioning alright.

 

I hope they play this right. I feel like Dani is the type of person that it's hard to empathize with because she's a larger than life diva (and insanely impulsive) but the situation she is in is so devastating at it's core that I understand why she's acting like this but I don't want them to only play the campy side of it. She needs to hit rock bottom and get help at some point. And I'd like her family to acknowledge how deep her pain is.

It's not just Bill leaving her for Haley but they're also tormenting her by constantly shoving it in her face. 

I have to agree...

 

 

Hayley is annoying. And not because she's a homewrecker. She needs to stand in this [!@#$%^&*] 10 toes down and she's not. There's nothing appealing about a wishy washy hussy #BeyondTheGates #BTG

Everyone makes excuses for her and/or is quick to cover her tracks from her friends to her family. They need to show tough love and leave her to face the consequences of her actions. She needs to get locked up next time she commits a crime which we know she will do. She needs to get slapped with a dose of reality

So you're the only one here who knows "the way of the world"? That is ridiculous.

LOTS is wrong and so is SOME, because it implies there's a significant percentage of gay people who claim they're gay because they were molested.

The number is not zero, but the number is very low. You are not going to go unanswered when you attempt to pass off ignorance as fact.
