I'm really excited for it.... but I can't shake off the feeling that Robert is just being really devious. Like if Aaron tries to break up with him (if it goes that far) Robert will try and get him back on side by threatening him over the truth about the raid or the stolen cars...

I haven't been this enthused for a storyline in quite some time.

He's always been straight though so he's obviously only using aaron.

Well actually I agree, I suspect that's where it is going as well but I also don't believe people choose a sexual orientation at 16 and it's locked in for life... We don't know what he's been doing for last however many years

That's true. It is a good storyline and the ambiguity re robert us intriguing. I imagine aaron will be sobbing at the end of it. Lol.

Yay - another soap story about a str8 character doing gay things with a hot looking guy.

Doesn't matter if he's closeted or just manipulating Aaron - it's just another fantasy take on sexuality.

As a gay man - the scenario bores me to tears.

But they do storylines like this with straight couples all the time.... its not just a fantasy then?

I would rather have gay characters used the same as straight then have a campaign / public interest story everytime....

No - having a GAY character manipulating Aaron whilst he had another boyfriend would be using the characters the same way as they use str8 characters.

The old trope where str8 guy goes gay while str8 girlfriend is unaware was being done in soaps a decade ago.

And so have affairs, who's the daddy, murders. God knows Corrie like to wrongly accuse people of crimes and eastenders loves to shoot phil. I guess to me it's just part of soaps to have repetition.

Each to their own though

I don't watch Emmerdale, but I'm interested in this storyline. For anyone in the same boat, you can get up to speed with Aaron's return here:

I agree with you, the way he used Lawerence to get what he wants, the fact tonight he finds out what Lawrence asked Katie to sleep with Robert to break him and Chrissie up and then he finds out Aaron's gay.

I think they want people to believe he's gay so they are shocked that it turns out he's using him.

You can't just turn gay at his age, and he's never even shown any inclination towards men. Finding it a bit unrealistic.

he has been off screen for years. Who is to say he hasn't been sleeping with men, while hiding his sexulaity and having a girlfriend for show.
it happens. And many people 'turn gay' as you so stupidly put it in later life.

Danny has said this is a controversial storyline a guy cheating on his girlfriend with a guy isn't controversial.

Now Robert using Aaron and pretending to be gay and maybe even going as far as sleeping with him to get what he wants is.

Why is Aaron's sexual orientation brought into every S/l with his character? Surely the writers could think up something better for him than gay/thieving/angst ridden/loner/etc etc. Why cannot they write him as they would a straight man/woman? I find him totally and utterly boring, plus the fact that his acting isn't all that tbh.
