You make a point that others have raised as well and I think it's an extremely good one. And it really makes me want to say no no no. I do not trust these writers to do justice to that story line. I adore my show, but I also am well aware of their limitations (and probably the restrictions they are working under).
I feel like there has been some good progress in some areas (Charlie being one of them), and I would like to think it could continue to do so. But taking that giant leap and doing it sensitively and meaningfully, I think, isn't possible atm.
I'd be happy if they concentrated their talents and efforts on getting the story lines that they are exploring at the moment in some sort of focus. I'd also be happy if they continue to explore the nature of male relationships that don't necessarily have to be about sex. I think there's still a lot to be explored there.
