Nip/Tuck: How To Do Sexual Fluidity Right

 *SPOILERS FOR NIP/TUCK* 

Ok in one show I am currently watching there is a questionable storyline with a gay character which I am giving the benefit of the doubt for now. But it reminded me of a storyline in Nip/Tuck the tackles similar subject matter but does it right (in my view at least) 

In one of the later seasons a character in the medical family drama Liz Cruz, who is a queer woman has a emotional fling with Christian Troy (One of the two main leads) and even marries him but.....like many of his relationships, it doesn't work out. 

Now here's why an obviously problematic sounding storyline is done right and her thought provoking about the idea of sexual fluidity 

Now what is sexual fluidity, the idea that anyone can be capable of being attracted to anyone. Now this isn't saying that sexual identities aren't real or that anyone shouldn't have them. Labels such as gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc. Are real and people should not forced to sleep with people they don't want to sleep with. But i do think that any person can be capable of being attracted to someone outside of their regular range of people whom they are attracted to

Now how does Nip/Tuck do it right? 

1. Liz's attraction to women is not erased and she still sleeps with women after Christian 

2. Their marriage doesn't last 

3. While the political candidate analogy she uses to describe it to someone else is kind of odd, it is interesting to think about having conversations about sexual fluidity 

And also conversations about sexual fluidity should be discussed but without completely erasing peoples sexual orientations and ranges of whom they are attracted to. You don't have to sleep with someone you are not attracted to when you don't want to
