Which Gay Character Would You Recommend as a Role Model?

The ECONOMIST MAGAZINE said he's (Berlin's mayor) a dapper dresser.  ;)


Somebody already said Neil Patrick Harris.  I admire him from coming out while he still has a career.  Not like Tab Hunter or others who come out to sell their book.

At one time I would have said Reichen Lehmkuhl with absolutely no hesitation. And I may still say that. I'm just not as sure about him as I once was. In some ways he seems to have gone down the Hollywood lane, but he has also gotten a lot of bad press that may not be true. I certainly, without a doubt, would recommend his book. That book had a huge impact on me cause I could relate so well to him especially when he was growing up and discovering that he was different.

Lets try Dr. Smith from the 60's series "Lost in Space", he is a real hoot !

Kd5000:
"Dr Smith" LOL!   I loved Dr Smith.   I only got Lost in Space it in repeats in the early to mid 1970's.  I really liked "Will" alot. ;-)   He had so much adventure in his life, meeting aliens and all.

Guess he's a typical child star who didn't have much of a career in tv/film afterwards.

Billy Mumy "Will" had an ongoing role on the "Babylon 5" TV series for a number of years. He grew up into a very good actor and I really enjoy his performances on "Babylon 5". A little bit of trivia : the theme music to "Lost in Space" was composed and conducted by John Williams (listed in the credits as Johnny Williams) who has much greater fame later with the Jaws and Star Wars movies.
