- Thread starter Lightning Count

Marky-Mark. I'll never forget finding my Mom's People magazine when I was a kid and unfolding the poster with him in his Calvins. 🤤
Michael J Fox in Back to the Future.
Purple briefs. 🥰🥰🥰

I know this site skews older but I can't be the only one who caught the gay from watching the disney channel.

It was that exact same scene for me too lol
Shoutout also to shirtless Rami Malek at the end of the first Night in the Museum
Deinitely this as well. I remember watching this film in the cinema at the age of 15 and during this scene thinking, oh fuck I'm gay
Lol I had the exact same experience except with Sailor Mars.
Speaking of Sailor Mars was my first for sure and maybe Cheetah from Thundercats >>
As far as actual humans I'd say either Xena or Simone Simons from the Band Epica
Link because era is being a butt
Still got a crush on all these ladies. Lol my current main celebrity crush for ladies (since I'm bi) is Gwendolyn Christie.
Bearded Ewan McGregor in Attack of The Clones. Was certainly when I finally realised it, though there were plenty of others before and after.
Shirtless Billie Zane in The Phantom.
I did find both Frodo and Sam very cute together in LOTR. Ended up developing a celebrity crush on Elijah Wood that still lasts to this day.
Casper van Dien in Starship Troopers, as mentioned before, was certainly a big one. Maybe that's why it was my favourite movie back then, haha
Plus every shirtless guy in a film I saw in those days, probably. Oh well.

Funny enough I wanted to be pink ranger but not with her unlike my crush on Sailor Mars so I can't join the power rangers crew 🤣
Yep this was mine as well. Rocky and Adam as well.Another power ranger crush here 😂
Some consideration has made me realize I had a crush on Poison Ivy form Batman: the Animated Series and Elisa Maza from Gargoyles lol
Uhhh...lots of Power Rangers fans in here.
Every season of that show just had smoking hot people in it, PR is probably responsible for like, half of queer awakenings in the english speaking world.
I watched that and Cell or whatever it was called so many times whenever they came on TV, lol.
Mmmmmmmmmm the Corbett brothers.
And then Titanium (and his allergy to shirts) the very next year? I didn't stand a chance.
Same same same. And then Sentai to a small extent, Rider to a much greater extent, casting pretty boys to appeal to moms…. tokusatsu is incredible to her gays and I love it.

Not sure about him being the first, but he was definitely among the first, same as David Gallagher.
Might explain why Kingdom Hearts is one of my favorite videogame series, with them voicing Roxas and Riku respectively... xD
Also, Noah Hathaway as Atreyu from the first Neverending Story movie.
I was crushing SOOO hard on both of them as a kid. Also most of the original Power Rangers like everyone else. 😂
damn you making me remember how I was crushing on both Ewan and Nicole Kidman in Moulin. Kidman is so much more hot when she's a red head
Phil of the Future is my answer as well. I'm not sure if I even realized I like guys at the time I watched it, but looking back I definitely was into him.
Best I can recall is David Tennant in Doctor Who. My memory is garbage so there were probably others from when I was younger.
James Duval was the first time I noticed "Hey, that guy is pretty" in a way where it meant something.
Probably in Independence Day(which had to have been where I first saw him), although I probably didn't recognize then, but definitively during The Doom Generation or Nowhere(whichever I watched first).
Dude knows he's good looking and likes going shirts-off in a lot of movies
(lookit that V!)
I really had to think about this, but it was probably the Sprouse twins. I didn't even watch their shows, but still. We're the same age anyway.
I think the one that really made me start being more open about myself and really gets me hot and bothered was Adam Driver when I watched Girls. And then we went to be Kylo Ren and my favorite IP and my man crush joined forces.
Crispin Glover. Although technically if we're just talking about FIRST male crush then...
...the Daffy Gremlin from Gremlins 2.
Sabin Figaro, absolutely. Didn't know it right away, but after several replays I'm pretty sure my horny teenage imagination came up with a similar depiction to this art in my head (which is clipped since the full thing is very nsfw).
I do not remember my first actual person gay crush, only my hetero one (Drew Barrymore), so I will post my fiance's lol (Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, nsfw)
It's funny, I look back and don't think of her as a crush. But she totally was. Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers was so pivotal.
I had a small picture cut out from a magazine of Jason Donovan sweaty and shirtless on stage, I was probably about 11 or 12, not that I had a particular crush on him, but this shirtless, sweaty pic was the trigger for me. The first crush I had was Scott Bakula in Quantum Leap I think, dreamy.
DEF had major gay awakening with Kano. i had trouble thinking of who from way back until you posted this. Yeah def think it was Kano from the Original movie.
Also just thought of Aries from Xena/Hercules. He def was one of my first crushes too. Still think Kano was first tho
Hahaha, yeah Kano definitely woke a lot of guys up! I remember being in the theater and when he stepped out of that hut or whatever I was like whaaaaaaaat???????? Such confusion 😂😂😂
Lenny Kravitz. Child me saw a bit of his booty in one of his old music videos, and I was intrigued .
