[QUOTE="Spooky Owl!, post: 432803, member: 57984"] But everyone thought he was straight. Seriously. In the '70s, there were various gay characters who popped up in guest roles from time-to-time --- not a lot, but occasionally. Which is what Kit Mainwaring and his big living room cock (I assume Larry and Patrick nailed the set wall) was: just a "guest" character. In 1977 came cross-dressing Jodie Dallas on SOAP -- to [I][B]much [/B][/I]media controversy (young as I was at the time, the ruckus still seemed excessive, as other series -- like ALL IN THE FAMILY and MAUDE and even MARY TYLER MOORE -- had already addressed those issues for several years.... but only in single episodes. And SOAP was making Billy Crystal's character a regular, weekly role. Then came The Carrington Stevens --- gay, bi, straight, asexual and, ultimately, binarily cast. No wonder the Stevenbot was so uptight. [/QUOTE]
