Post by JohnPost by IncubusPost by PanchoWell who would have guessed.
I know it is mean spirited of me, but I do wonder if
there is any evidence that he has ever shagged a man?
Imagine my surprise. But is it really necessary to
humiliate his wife and family like this? I doubt that
anyone else really cares much anyway; but does it have to
be done so publicly?
His poor wife. If she knew Schofield was gay then
presumably she knew he was sloping off for sex with his gay
partner but trying to keep it hidden from the daughters. It
must have been awful for her.
Quite. ISTM that once one has made certain commitments
(marriage, children), one has obligations that are more
important things than sexual preferences. I imagine that
nearly everyone would do anything they humanly could to
shield and protect their family, so I can't understand why he
would do something like this. I expect it's just the rather
tawdry world he inhabits.
Where else but in that tawdry world can someone be lavished
with love, praise, tears of joy and celebration of them as an
individual for lying to their family and betraying them?
Unfortunately, we live in the same tawdry world because it is
being forced upon us. Anyone who thinks differently will be
subject to vilificaion.
It's all down to sexual gratification, today also, a GP has been
given 3 life sentences for 'deceiving' patients who would never
have known if it wasn't for the exposure the case has generated.
Has he said how many male sexual relationships he has had while
being married for 27 years?
What kind of potential health risks has he subjected his wife to?
Presumably she will be divorcing as soon as she can? Otherwise what
is the point of him coming out, because does he think he can
continue to have gay relationships within marriage now that it is
public knowledge?
Other than why this is headline news at all; my only other surprise
is that he didn't wait until next Friday to make the announcement.
Schofield says he's "single" and "not looking for love", presumably
meaning he had no gay partner.
That makes no sense to me whatsoever. Why bother with any kind of
sexual orientation if you don’t want any sex?
Post by PamelaIf he currently has no gay partner, then his announcement only has
the purpose of declaring he doesn't find his wife sexually
attractive.
She must be full of the joys of spring right now.
Post by PamelaWhat a strange thing to announce.
Precisely.
Post by PamelaThe real facts may be stranger still and we might even find there's
blackmail from his spurned gay lover, to force the timing of the
announcement.
I wonder how much longer the "We Buy Any Car" ads will continue?
Today Phillip Schofield says, "I knew I was gay when I got married 27
years ago".
Curiouser and curiouser.
To-morrow, his wife will say that she also knew.
In the Schofield household at least, it seems being a poofter can hide
being an adulterer.
If Schofield was having sex with a young female secretary instead of with
gay chums, then we would be blaming him.
I really don’t see the importance of gay people ‘coming out’, except
for their own narcissist reasons.
I have never came out as heterosexual, I just got on with it.
What extra does he hope to achieve by telling everyone (other than his own
family) that he is gay? Is he now expecting to get bombarded by offers of a
quick arse-job by the general public? If he is not on some kind of high
profile flirt-fest then I see no reason to bother.
Does everyone watch a TV programme and spend their time playing ’spot the
gay’?
