"General Hospital" has already went down the gay male storyline road.
In 2005 the character of Lucas Jones, the adopted son of Doctor Tony Jones and nurse Bobbie Jones, came out of the closet.
He was at first being played by that uber hottie Ryan Carnes from "Eating Out" and then "Desperate Housewives."
There's been speculation that he quit the role because he was going to be stereotyped as only able to play gay characters (hey, that's plenty alright with me!
)
They re-cast him with Ben Hogestyn, the son of "Days Of Our Lives" veteran Drake Hogestyn. He was capable in the role but personally always made me think of Clay Aiken but I'm getting off subject here.
The show seemed loyal to it's storyline even having Lucas involved in a storyline where he picks up a hot Latin stud and then ends up getting gay bashed by the same hot Latin stud (not so hot to me after that!
)
Lucas then started flirting with some random guy on the show but that storyline bit the dust the same time Lucas' dad Tony was killed off the show in November of 2005 after 21 years of service and perhaps the most heart-breaking soap performance ever when Tony watched his dying daughter B.J. give her heart to cousin Maxie (May, 1994).
Today Carly Corinthos, the sister of gay Lukas is the central star of "General Hospital." But do we ever see or hear mention of her brother?
That's a big "nope"
