What interests me about this whole thing is that it clearly shows our bias and stereotypes. If Rebecca had been the one drunk off her ass, and Robert had been sober and they had sex, everyone and their gray haired granny would be screaming rape. However because Robert is a man, there are those who seem willing to dismiss the fact that he was too drunk to consent to anything that night. Him getting an erection does not constitute consent, it's a biological response. Men get erections several times during the night during their sleep. It's not difficult to get a man erect when he is otherwise incapacitated, that doesn't mean he consented. It only means his body responded to outside stimulation. Rape doesn't just mean the person said no and was forced, rape also means not being capable of saying yes and the other person had sex with you anyway.

Adam the actor has been calling for a romance between Adam and Aaron again. www.digitalspy.com/soaps/emmerdale/news/a827387/emmerdale-spoilers-adam-thomas-wants-adam-aaron-romance/MM fangirls widely love this idea. Same as they did with JP and Craig. But Adam the actor is a homophobe. He has used slurs against gay fans. Dou you remember when Adam did CPR on Aaron after his suicide attempt in the garage? Adam didn't even give mouth to mouth. Adam the actor put his hand between their mouths. That's how homophobic this actor is.

Danny himself was somewhat homophobic at the time. Look how much he has grown. I think we should give the same allowance for growth to Adam. I mean, he's calling for a gay romance for his character. Sounds like he's made some progress on the issue.

Sounds like he's made some progress on the issue. I agree because I watched when it was Aaron and Jackson and you could tell Danny wasn't as comfortable then as he is now. Because my comment about him as an actor if you're not comfortable about the role then you shouldn't take it. Because to me when I'm watching I want it to look believable and I could tell Danny wasn't as comfortable as he is now and he had made some comments I didn't like. I also gave him props for changing his attitude and growing up as an person and actor.

I also want to mention that Danny Miller was also very young when he started on Emmerdale so that can explain his action a little.

Sounds like he's made some progress on the issue. He wants big storylines. Maybe fandom. Why else would he have gone into the jungle? People only go there if they want exposure. I doubt it's his heart's desire to snog his former flat mate. He may be less insecure now, fair enough, but I think that has more to do with his wife and child than personal growth.

If Robert had to cheat with someone, why coulnd't it have been with a man? Straight affair storylines are so boring. Yes, I'm still salty about Connor. What could have been, sigh.

It's a soap rule. Queer characters may flex. A few days ago lesbian Tina on EE slept with a man again. Corrie did it with Marcus. Straight characters never flex. Because in soap land they would have to have an all round accepted coming out and be bisexual or whatever.

Emmerdale has won the BAFTA for (best) 'Soap and Continuing Drama' Specific episodes judged were Aaron's abuse; Holly's death; Emma causing the car pile-up and Ashley's dementia.

I never wanted a Monday, to hurry up and get here so much. I have truly missed Robron so much.

I am SO glad they didn't drag this lie out. Poor Aaron. Now he can deal with it.
