*San Francisco Chronicle, August 29, 1988:
Daytime soap opera has hardly been a bastion of prudery, but until last week one sexual taboo remained inviolable. Although seemingly every sort of sexual and psychological exotica has made its way onto these serials, male homosexuality has been off-limits for leading characters, according to Douglas Marland, head writer for the CBS series " As the World Turns."
On Thursday, August 18, 1988, that barrier fell, as the mysterious Hank Eliot informed his erstwhile girlfriend that he was gay. Although lesbian relationships have surfaced on soaps, Marland said, "there has been a strong belief that there would be resistance to male homosexuality from an audience that is primarily female."
The show's producer, sponsor, network and audience, though, have supported the new plot twist, he added.
"I like to believe that 'As the World Turns' is representative of everything in our lives," Marland said. "In the mix of 32 contract characters, I felt it was lacking that there wasn't one gay man." The relationship will remain off-camera, however, and - at least, for the immediate future - AIDS will not enter the story.
