Who was your first Gay crush??

[~sudsshane]

I thought it would be fun for us to share our first gay crush.

For me there is no question. The first time I saw Jon Erik Hexum, my heart skipped a beat. When he died tragically in 1984, at age 26, I was crushed.

I then knew I was gay. No question.

I had so many crushes... I was a walking hormone all through puberty.

If you're talking about celebrity crushes, I always went for boyish types, not overly muscular. The first I remember were:

Kent McCord (Adam-12 TV show)
Andy Williams (blame my mother)
Rock Hudson (4-alarm gaydar, even before he came out publicly)
Robert Reed
James MacArthur (book 'em Dan-O)
Jim Hutton
Ken Berry
Bobby Darin
Lee Majors
Harrison Ford

I can remember who my first in person crush was, but not my celebrity crush. Probably Tom Wopat and John Schneider. I was a huge fan of The Dukes Of Hazzard lol. I think it was the tight jeans.

Eric Paulsen, journalist and news anchorman of WWL-TV in Louisiana, is Jon-Erik’s cousin. Shane i thought you might appreciate this little bit of trivia. alr2903

Well, Shane,

we actually agree on something.
A first!

My crushes were Race Bannon, Captain Kirk, Sulu (whom they often managed to get shirtless, yum) and, later John Schneider and Phil Morris.

And I really wanted to dress like Barbara Stanwyck in the westerns.

Sigh.

I was always into Bears, and otters

Dan Blocker, and Burt Reynolds.

There is a reason: My father was very hairy, and after he died when I was five..........

I wanted Dan Blocker as sort of a dad, and Burt Reynolds as sort of a brother.

Lawrence/Maytagbear

Hmm,

I would have taken Burt Reynolds over my brother any day.

Actually, I wanted a dog.

But never mind. Furry men, bears or otters are just wonderful. I am soooo happy that this nonsense about waxed chests is over and done with.

If a guy has a nice six-pack, well, ok. Otherwise, it's like all those idiots you see out bicycling in lycra...like, maybe one out of a hundred can carry it off ---and they're usually in baggies and a ripped T-shirt 'cause they can't be bothered.

My first crush was a local neighbor named Jeff who I remember walking home with oneday where we both layed on a lounge chair,fell asleep and I woke up about an hour later seeing his boner hanging down his right thigh ever so beautifuly throbing,begging to release but,being 9 years old was a serious issue for me at that time.My second was Chad Everit on Medical Center.

 

[whitekingd]

My first crush had to be Speed Racer back when I was about three or four years old. I remember being fascinated with him. I can also remember having several orgasms while thinking about him (when I was three or four, of course!).

The next I remember was Sean Cassidy. Nncchh - Nuff Said.

 

[dblrinz]

Jim - From Wild Wild West

Can't for the life of me remember his name right now, but YUMMIE!

The other was Doug from Days of Our Lives - OK laugh all you want! My great aunt watched it when she baby sat for me and knowing that if I watched with her I would see him shirtless, well, I sat through all the episodes I could. I was pretty young, but this is when I realized I was gay. Though it would be 15 years before I came out...

The Rockford Files

James Garner.

I think it was made more exciting for me in that he looked very much like the next-door neighbor.

Not the hottest but "attainable" HA!

robert conrad

and he obviously has made a deal with the devil

or maybe it is the name Robert...

 

[toggleswitch2]

Ben Afleck still has an attractiveness in my book.

Of course that naughty video of him (or a look-alike) on the web is quite interesting.

I'm convinced the hair on the north pole is not his, but who cares!

[countryguy]

For me it was Lyle Waggoner from the Carol Burnett show.

 

[turquoisedude]

It was a lifeguard at the local pool - he was straight, but well, he was easily influenced too. He had the 'swimmer's build', nice abs, curly blonde hair, and green eyes... sigh.
Better still he had 3 hot brothers who also lifeguards...

 

[dblrinz]

Robert Conrad!

STILL makes me skip a beat...I'd like to make a DEAL with him! THANK YOU for the picture! AAAAAAHHHHHH SO YUMMIE!

 

[dblrinz]

Ben?

I have watched that video several times trying to figure out if it is Ben? One way or the other it is EASY to watch. I definitely think he has aged well and is more attractive now!

 

[toggleswitch2]

I'm trying to think of my "EUREKA" ["I found/get it"] moment.

I'd enjoy going to the depatment stores with my father when he was buying new clothing, oooh how I enjoyed seeing the guys in the fitting room in their undies............

I remember thinking as very young boy, why do mom and dad sleep in the same bed? EWWWWWWWWW....

I remember some of the innocent "show and (don't)tell" kids do.

I remember in grannmmar/elementary school one particulary exhibitionistic student of my age would try to pee on the moving flies in the boy's rest room. He peed on everyting! *LOL* and put on quite a show.

*SIGH* innocence.

IIRC, according to Masters & Jonhson sexuality researchers one in three males has a same-sex experience of some type by the age of twenty-something. Some grow out of it, some don't............

Never heard of Jon Erik Hexum

But what a guy! Have to netflix Voyagers now.

My first crush was William Smith on Laredo.
Then Clint Walker he was in a bathrtub on camera once that did it for me!! What a chest!
