Yes, he is straight, because Hayley is a woman.

I think Sylvie's reaction will be quite brilliant.

Roy's straight, although Hayley still had male parts when they first went on a date did she not? At least she told him before they...

For goodness sake, Hayley is a woman now and Roy sees her as such. He is straight.

Yes Hayley is now a woman but was a man when they first met.

Roy loves Hayley because she's Hayley. He's not bothered about what gender she is and I'm glad that they have not elaborated on this. All we need to know is that they love each other.

Roy fell in love with Hayley who he believed was a woman (even though she wasn't technically, not that it mattered to him) so I think that makes him straight.

Hayley is a woman. Even when she was a pre-op transsexual, she still lived her life as a woman. This makes Roy straight.
Honestly, it never ceases to amaze me how narrow-minded people can be regarding issues surrounding sexuality. The recent debates over the amount of gay characters in Corrie have proved that much. Anyone would think we'd regressed a generation or two...

Yes he is straight. When he was first in Corrie, he fancied Deidre! He was quite shocked when he first found out that Hayley was a transsexual and finished the relationship, then he changed his mind, accepting her as a woman. Her sexual status is rarely mentioned these days but it is bound to come up at some stage, especially as his mum has now appeared.

The Hayley story line is one that I think Corrie writers have got exactly right. They didn't sensationalise it too much and made it very believable. As a character I love Hayley and Roy is the perfect partner for her.

I don't think it is narrow-minded for people to be "confused" as to whether Roy is straight or not. But the beauty of love is that it doesn't matter, male or woman, black or white, ginger or brunette; it's about person and who they are that matters. Who cares if the label is straight or gay? For example, is Sian not bisexual rather than gay? Unlike Sophie, she was attracted to guy and simply loved Sophie for who she was. Would she be attracted to other girls or is sophie special because of their connection? I wouldn't find it odd for the character to be attracted to a guy, but perhaps would moreso with Sophie as she was shown to not want to be sexual with guys and not have much experience there. And isn't that the same with Roy. He looked past the fact she was a "man" when they met to see Hayley, the woman, the person he loved.

They didn't have a sexual relationship while she was still pre-op, so he's straight.

It shocks me how people still don't understand. Hayley has always been a woman, but unfortunately was born into the body of a man.

No, it makes him bisexual, as he wasn't bothered either way!

Isn't it painfully obvious?

Roy isn't attracted to men, so he isn't gay.

Seconded, reallly nicely done generally, not given the EE screaming and shouting type guff.
