He definitely wasn't my first crush, but it was the first crush that made me realize "wow, I'm really, reallly gay"

I am interested in this topic because I didn't fully appreciate someone being born gay until I had a friend explain to me his first crush. This was in 1998, my friend and I were adults, and I considered myself pretty open-minded at the time. But I suppose I still needed this "a-ha" moment articulated for me. We were talking about Gilligan's Island, and how I always liked Marianne more than Ginger. He said he first knew he was gay because of his crush on the professor. What clicked for me was that most of my friends considered Ginger the sexy one, but she was no comparison to Marianne, IMO. And I figured that was just an innate part of me. Despite the social pressure to like Ginger, I couldn't deny that I found Marianne more my fantasy woman. It was simply who I was. He went through the same thing (though obviously dealing with different kinds of social pressures). It was simply who he was.0

This person was apparently named Edson Stoll. I looked because I needed to know.
Also this thread is only fun for me because I am not familiar with any of these people. No TV watching (other than PBS) in my house til I was old enough to say "screw this" and just sneak in to watch stuff on my own at which point it was limited to what I could sneak. So even some older stuff that people my age (I'm 30) didn't catch in reruns, I missed.
Also @Kenneth - I believe Maryann consistently polls higher than Ginger actually. But I still prefer Tina Louise in the pure looks department. The Ginger character was supposed to be the eye candy, the maryann character was the girl you wanted to marry. Because old TV is sexist as ****. Wait....current TV is also pretty sexist. Well anyway. You get the idea. (Apparently in the pilot they were both secretaries, the 'practical' secretary and the 'airhead' secretary. Same sale, slightly different advertising).
I rarely find people I don't know attractive (like, pretty much never, and only when pressed and I take the time to pretend they are somehow someone I know in person) so I did not have TV crushes.0 -
I may, or may not, have had a tiny crush on doogie howser. Don't judge me!0

Its not to late to admit to Wesley Crusher too. Go ahead. You know you want to.0 -
.....first crush was Ken Ichijouji from Digimon. Yeah, a cartoon....I know. First real-life-ish crush would probably be Legolas from the Lord of the Rings movies.
I haven't encountered many big crushes on women actors or whatnot...I'm a bit picky when it comes to women I suppose. The girl from Underworld is definitely hot though. I always forget her name0 -

But after Dr. Horrible, how can you not have a crush on NPH?0 -
Linda Carter as Wonder Woman. Now, I remember why I have a thing for dark-haired, blue-eyed women! I then moved on to Charlie's Angels...Sabrina was my favorite one.0

Gil Gerard is going to be at Dragon*Con next week along with Erin Grey (a crush of mine from Buck Rogers...met her last year ) ). If I get any pics of him, I'll post it here. I'm a staffer with Dragon*con so don't know how many panels I'll get to see. I'm definitely going to look for Erin again so they might be doing a panel together.
I think my first and biggest crush was either...Julie Andrews or Olivia Newton John...which is odd because I don't normally go for blondes. Maybe it was the accent <grins>0 -
Kristy McNichol, complete with tom boy name "Buddy" on Family
Nancy McKeon as Jo Polnacheck on The Facts of Life
I am a child of the 80s. I appreciate the Charlie's Angels too but they were on too late for me.0 -
Sally Fields as Bridget and Paul Peterson from the Donna Reed Show (I"m really dating myself here!). Reaching way back, there was Gail Davis as Annie Oakley. Though I don't know if it was a crush so much as I wanted to BE her. I was really young when the show was running and I would go to sleep at night thinking about her, hoping I would dream about Annie Oakley.0

Jason, the Red Ranger from the Power Rangers (who later on killed someone, right?) and Dean Cain from Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.
