Same-sex scandals in 'Skins'

Following Neil's oh-so-charming introduction of me and my slight obsession with House, you may be shocked and/or gutted to learn Hugh and co aren't the focus of my first blog.
The new episode of Skins is the first order of the day and let's just say it's full of lady-lovin' this week as the spotlight falls on mouthy-but-meek Naomi.
It's argument-central in this ep as the teens compete against each other to be elected school president. After some persuasion from her friends, Naomi finds herself going up against Cook - and the battle is fierce...
Chez Naomi, things are even more chaotic. Her mum's invited the entire Naturist Society to stay in the house and unfortunately for Nomes, that means she's got to share her bed. Click 'play' to watch a preview:

Also this week:
- Someone falls for Cook's charms - but it's not Effy
- There's more than a nod to the Chris/Angie saga when one teen snogs a teacher
- Two teens partake in a spot of drink and drug fuelled skinny dipping...
- ...then fall into bed with each other
- Freddie pines after Effy. Again.
- It looks like Emily may have bagged herself a new girlfriend...
- Cook makes a move on JJ. Sort of.

Why, when they involve "same-sex" relationships are storyline's considered "scandals"?

Welcome to TT Dan. Whilst Skins is a worthy topic for your first post, House is better! As a House fan, you need to sort out a petition to get House on air sooner than the Autumn! We want House! We want House! I am sure all of the House fans here on TT and DS could get it sorted. (The sooner House comes to our screens, the better! -Dan)

Uhh why exactly have you called it a scandal? They're both willing and single, how is that scandalous? I love Naomi and Emily together, will be really interesting to see a tenative girl/girl relationship handled on skins. (Once you've seen the episode, it might seem like more of a scandal. Emily's not the only teen to get it on with Nomes... -Dan)
