			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re a soap fan and you&#8217;re reading this blog post, then chances are you know about the gay romance (and first daytime gay sex scene) that debuted on ABC&#8217;s One Life to Live between the characters of Fish and Kyle.<span id="more-11322"></span></p>
<p>Well, a lot of speculation around the couple&#8217;s demise has been circulating across the blogosphere, so to help clear things up, <a href="http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2010/03/one-life-to-lives-brett-claywell-the-end-of-kish.html" target="_blank"><em><strong>Zap2It</strong></em></a> tackled the issue and spoke with Brett Claywell (A.K.A. Kyle) about the recent layoffs from the daytime drama.</p>
<p>According to the post:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Last December, &#8220;<strong>One Life to Live</strong>&#8221; broke new ground when they  aired the <a href="http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2009/12/one-life-to-live-airs-first-gay-sex-scene-world-does-not-end.html">first  gay sex scene in daytime television</a>. You read that right: the soap  opera format has been around since people were gathering around their  radios, and it took until December of 2009 for a gay couple to do the  deed.</em></p>
<p><em>Three short months later, the couple in question &#8212; Oliver  &#8220;Fish&#8221; (<strong>Scott Evans</strong>) and Kyle (<strong>Brett Claywell</strong>) &#8212; have  been written off the show. According to <a href="http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/soaps/one-life-to-live-kos-kish-4337.html" target="_blank">TV  Guide</a>, ABC says that the duo &#8220;failed to resonate with the  mainstream audience,&#8221; because ratings were &#8220;particularly dismal&#8221; when  Fish came out of the closet.</em></p>
<p><em>To say that fans of the couple are  upset about Kyle and Fish&#8217;s abrupt exit would be an understatement. Fans  have signed petitions, established the &#8220;Save Kish&#8221; and &#8220;<a href="http://dontputkishinthecloset.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Don&#8217;t Put Kish in the  Closet</a>&#8221; campaigns, and even planned a rally outside the &#8220;Good  Morning America&#8221; studios in NYC.</em></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For years, there has been a buzz about the lack of LGBT representation on the TV.  Of late however, there has been a growing number of gay characters portrayed on TV, especially in the circle of daytime soaps. <span id="more-7386"></span>ABC’s “All My Children” has had a lesbian wedding, and CBS has had an ongoing gay drama (including sex) on their long running “As the World Turns”.</p>
<p>Well, it looks like CBS has yet again stumbled into the gay ring on daytime.  This time it’s on the long running Young and Restless.  That’s right, Y&amp;R’s Yani Gellman, who plays the role of Rafe, is coming out as gay.</p>
