Colton underwood- american football player

I wonder if Gus taught Colton how to douche, to prepare his hole for the daddies
I assume so. It's not like he had anyone else to teach him.
Seriously? Do you think Colton needs help finding his asshole?
Or maybe how to run warm water out of the faucet?




There's internet these days lol.
Well, there is that ... but I figured out how to do this without help and long before the internet.
This really isn't rocket science.

Or he just could have told Colton, what he thought was the most efficient way to do it, seeing how Guss wanted to make sure he knew evening about sex. Calm down.

Well I guess I'll give my little two cents. I'm very happy for him for coming out and living his true self, that's a great feeling and weight lifted off your shoulders when you finally do it. However I'd be lying if I said the show didn't have some moments that made me scratch my head.

I think the biggest thing that popped out for me was the show began filming in November 2020 and he came out in April. So I'm a little curious to know how this show came about and if he simply thought about trying to make a cash grab off of something as big as coming out. I mean a lot of people in the world aren't fortunate enough to safely/financially come out as LGBTQ+ and the idea he used it as a means to get a reality show seems.. bleh. I mean compared to Carl Nassib who came out in June with an instagram video and then resumed his life like normal, so the difference is pretty striking y'know. But regardless, still happy for both of them equally.

Also I feel like there was a lot of missed opportunity to discuss some important topics in more detail that came up in some episodes. Clearly he was affected by his religious upbringing and the sports environment he grew up in and I feel like there was room for some educational moments to really highlight how these factors have affected others in our community who have grown up LGBT. But I did like them bringing other gay athletes in to discuss their lives and how it was for them.

Overall I'd give the show 6/10. And it's mainly that high simply because I am gay and don't wanna be a complete debbie downer on a fellow gay lol but it just felt very Bravo-ish and I'm not huge reality TV fan so that made it even more difficult to watch at times. But there were some funny and uplifting moments I enjoyed but probably won't be making it to my re-watch list anytime soon.
That's the part I don't get as well. The show started filming six months before he came out publicly? Clearly he came out to someone in Hollywood, and either they or Colton or both decided to monetize and pitch it as a show. Which, you know, I don't really have a problem with, but I feel like it could be part of the narrative when Colton etc talks about how this all came to be. It feels shady to hide it, though it is reality TV, which has never been known for its ethics or even reality.
 
started his Netflix show and so far it’s doing a somewhat effective job of trying to rehabilitate his image. So far he has not been specific about his past mistakes and talks about them only in the abstract and when he comes out to people he also does so without using the word gay most of the time, and just says “I’m coming out” which is a little pathetic. I’m a forgiving person, so I’m willing to let him make a good faith effort to hold himself accountable for his past mistakes. Bow if he turns out to be an anti-vaxer, all bets are off lol.

I agree. The series has a reality show presentation, and at some stage, you can’t help but wonder in the hypocrisy of the premise, for nothing’s really changed, the myopic focus is still on Colton, and on some level, he’s apologizing to the wrong people.

I mean where’s the Netflix coming out series for the closeted young men coming up in incredibly homophobic school systems who didn’t qualify as the high school jock and sucked at sports?

Those who were demoralized for their sexuality before they themselves had any understand as to who they were and assigned names before they knew the meaning. Who were ridiculed by the coaches in PE and further ridiculed by guidance counselors if they dared reported they were being bullied.

Whose high school social existence consisted of a handful of female friends and possibly a sympathetic teacher, and never looked back when they finally finished, for they knew life would never be that bad again.

I would wish Colton luck, but privilege is begetting privilege here and he has his own series operating as celebrity matchmaking, so he really doesn’t need luck, does he?

To think just because he was a jock does not mean he had a hard high school experience. You can experience homophobia without being outwardly feminine. Also, any exposure to the community is good exposure. He is a former pro athlete and was on the bachelor. His appeal towards a more conservative fan base could do great things for the community.

That's the funny thing about fillers. Really, men should only use fillers to replace the loss of volume when they hit their fifties. A good amount will make you look fresh, youthful but as you were when you were younger.

But as is the fashion in Hollywood, they always put too much in. So instead of youthful, you end up looking like you had your face reconstructed after a car crash.

Unfortunately much younger men are being convinced to be over filled too. So being over filled like a 50 year old makes you look like you are 50.
unfortunately, Brodie is correct...filler is an art..and changes monthly...its an expensive project and worth it, if done correctly...many of the guys in So Cal look like women due to the injectors mainly working on women, which is totally different way of looking at the face.
 
I think an issue about him is that he monetized his 'straight' persona and now he's monetizing coming out. He was actually being blackmailed about being gay and this info about him was going to be exposed anyway---I mean, it's one thing to be confused about your sexuality, but its another thing to go on National Television and making money by lying about who you are. He says in his new show that he knew he was gay early on--so why become America's bachelor and date 30 women, knowing that you are gay. And how intrusive is it of him to have these private moments of coming out to his parents, filmed and have a crew watching you. Perhaps his parents might have had a more private response if the cameras weren't in their faces. This guy has no problem intruding on other people's lives to make a buck.
I Haven’t Watched The Show And To Be Honest, I’m Not Even Slightly Interested In Watching It. But I Have Read Many Articles About The Whole Debacle Surrounding The Bachelor And The Aforementioned Blackmail Scandal And I Must Say, I Absolutely Agree With Everything You’ve Said Here.
 
The Aforementioned Blackmail Scandal
I must admit that I did think about this when I was watching the show. Didn't he say that was sort of the reason he needed to come forward? Like getting ahead of it I guess? My interpretation of the events, based off the show was that after the shit went down with Cassie, he had to up and leave LA. Now yes, the blackmail could have happened between those events but it's odd it wasn't mentioned.
 
His parents must've known that with a name like Colton UnderWOOD he would have to turn out gay, right? I mean if he went into porn he wouldn't even have to change his name. That's like the most Sean Cody name I've ever heard.

Literally this is what makes this series nauseating! Knowing that his entire coming out was pitched as a reality tv show so he can profit on coming out.

I literally thought this series was the "after" part of coming out, but no, it's the before. I felt a bit disgusted in seeing someone monetize what many of our LGBT community go through on a daily.

I mean, I don't think this show is great art, but that is what coming out is like. One does come out to different people, not just every week but -- assuming you want to come out explicitly in X context -- forever, every time you change jobs or make a new friend. (Obviously these days, depending on your station in life, it can be less dramatic than saying "I'm gay" and more about mentioning a husband or crush and letting them fill in from there, but still.) I didn't have a problem with that repetitive aspect of the show.

I suppose one nice thing about being a famous person (Colton barely qualifies as such) who comes out publicly is that you really do only have to do it once, unlike the rest of us schlubs.
 
it's painful to watch... seriously, he's coming out to a different person/group of people EVERY FUCKING EPISODE. It's redundant and painful to watch.
Seriously it is lol. Like, some of it is serious material that many of us can relate to. Then he comes out to someone else and you can see how scripted it is and it's just cringey to watch.

The first two episodes made my skin crawl knowing he profited on coming out. Something many of us know the difficultly when doing this.

As a gay man, this series gets a big thumbs down for the exploitation on coming out.
