Gregorio gay now?

And just because she was married, doesn't mean she wasn't gay.
Why do people keep saying that all the time? It's like there's a desire to prove that people get married to the opposite sex but are secretly gay.

Her being a lesbian is in no way a recent attempt by the writers to get people to like her more. It was always planned. The head of CBS' entertainment department spoiled already before the season even began that Gregorio was a lesbian, but even without that spoiler, there were hints earlier in the season. She never had a "great" relationship with her former husband. In fact, she mentioned pretty much the opposite, that they got married really young and that she didn't know who he really was, and that she didn't even know who she was.
Vanessa Ferlito who we cast in NCIS: New Orleans, her character is lesbian and theyre doing a storyline a little later in the fall where the audience will understand that and see that.
That's a quote from an article published August 10th.

CBS' entertainment president specifically said lesbian, and I don't see any reason to doubt that, since it's not uncommon at all that people don't realize (or accept) that they're gay until they're older. So if she got married real young it's not impossible or even unlikely that she's a lesbian and not bisexual. And her line about how she "didn't even know who [she] was" indicates lesbian, rather than bisexual.

Your either gay or straight the networks have no room for Bisexuals. It's like they are afraid of the topic. My guess is it offends some lesbians because there are a few whom under no circumstances wants to see any woman sleeping with another woman also sleeping with a man. This is said to both sexes.

Unfortunately, you're not wrong.
For instance, a show called Chasing Life featured a bisexual girl, (and she always identified as bisexual, and never as a lesbian,) when she dated another girl, everything was fine and dandy, but when she dated a guy, some lesbians attacked the show for giving into hetero storylines. I mean, what did they expect Being bisexual means that you're likely to sometimes date a girl, and sometimes date a guy.
However, fortunately enough, there were a lot of lesbians that called them out by saying that biphobia is just as ugly as homophobia.

William on This is Us. He's older, dying of cancer, black, & a grandpa. And boy are some having a field day. Just like Gregorio, people are saying the writers basically just threw this in. But we have no idea of their past. Both had relationships with the opposite sex, but we don't know a whole lot more.

I am one of those having a field day cause I think they basically just threw this in, and I'm appalled. The show was going so well and to me it's taken a turn that I neither foresaw or expected. I've lost my desire to continue watching it. So far I've missed the two new episodes and still wrangling in my mind if I want to continue watching it. I don't like when I'm sprung these kinds of changes. If I started off watching a show with the character as gay is one thing, but when they do a 180 on me, it pisses me off.
It's the same with the Marvel Agents of Shield character. One of the leads (and such a handsome and fine guy), was a good guy, and then they did a 180 and made him a very bad and hateful person. I don't like 180s with my lead stars.

I could understand if it was one of the "kids". But with William, we know very little of his life. He loved Randall's mother(which means he's bi), hooked on drugs, & is great with music. We don't know anything else. TiU is such a great show. I do hope you give it another try.

But they didn't just throw this in, it was planned since before the season began, as was spoiled by CBS' entertainment president. That's a fact, so no offense, but it doesn't really matter what you "think."

The fact that Viola Davis won an Emmy for her role as bisexual on broadcast, primetime TV means that the industry has come farther than you're saying
You see this as coming farther? So the more open we become about men sleeping with men and women with women means we're progressing? DWL. What a world we are now living in. Give me the old time way any day.
