Yes, I too am another straight female viewer watching this show, but I WANT Sonny and Brian to have sex, because with ALL the years of watching soaps and seeing other straight "endgame couples" have sexual relations, affairs and marriages with other characters besides their OTP, I think those two ending up in bed would add to the character development of both Sonny and Will.

Both Will and Sonny have had sex with other people, though. Technically, all of those encounters took place before they officially started dating each other, and Will's "other person" was a female, but we were already at the point where neither Will nor Sonny could say that they were the only person whom the other man had ever been with before they even shared their first kiss.

That said, there's still plenty of time for one or both of them to sleep with other people, even if that doesn't happen during this storyline. After all, there's already a lot of super couple angst for Will and Sonny in this storyline as it is, and the writers probably don't want to put all of their angst staples in one basket, so to speak -- they'll need to save some things for later, when this storyline has run its course.

Without trying to speak for anyone else, I think that part of the reason that you might find some fans to be resistant to the idea of Sonny and Brian sleeping together right now is that Brant Daugherty is only a recurring character at the moment. If such a storyline were to play out, I think that having it play out with a character who is actually on-screen for more than a handful of episodes every six months or so would be preferable.

The other reason -- for me, at least -- is that we've recently heard Sonny tell Will that having sex simply for the sake of having sex isn't what he wants. Given how fresh that statement is in my mind, it would just seem odd to me if Sonny had meaningless sex with Brian right now. It wouldn't completely irritate me or anything like that, but it would seem like a bit of a characterization misstep. I will say that before Sonny said that, I was kind of expecting him to sleep with Brian at some point before reconciling with Will, but after I heard that piece of dialogue, I stopped believing that Sonny would do something like that.
