I had my doubts at first, but I agree that he is gay. HOPEFULLY that means that people will give him a break (although the amount of gay bashing over the last few pages has been a little unpleasant.) Clearly the girls all like him and if having him here is going to improve the atmosphere in B1 then fantastic, I hope he stays. B1 is in desperate need of a lift and if this dude brings the fun then it's good news for everyone
Also, he's obviously not going to be Violetta's replacement, and having a gay guy there shouldn't impact on the female nudity
