I usually profile teen idols after they've graduated to adult hunkiness, but sometimes I can't wait: they're playing gay characters, going to Pride events, wearring femme/fabulous outfits, or hugging their boyfriends while still teenagers. Their openness to gay potential gives me hope for a less homophobic future. I won't look for or post n*de photos, of course, but I usually include some adult co-stars to keep things interesting.
1. Taylor Gregory: At 17, the fierce, fabulous Barbie boy had grown up to become a bodybuilder and fundamentalist.
2. Alfie Williams (left), star of 28 Years Later and 28 Years Later: Bone Temple, is 15 as of this writing, but hangs out with a surprising number of gay guys, who call him "one of the girls"
3. Eldon Jones: Actor in gay projects, dancer, artist with a gay brother and a pink shirt.
4. Isaac Ordonez (not pictured). The sweet, sensitive, queer-coded Pugsley Addams on Wednesday dates dudes.
5. Alkaio Thiele. The wizard in training on Beyond Waverly Place and Kayden Koshelev (below) used to be an item.
6. Kayden Koshelev (left). Drag boy and nonbinary firetruck, Alkaio's Other Half before their breakup. Not to worry, he's moved on.
7. Recker Eans. The gaydar boy on Beyond Waverly Place drums in gay-friendly videos and sings in a boy band with gay-friendly songs.
8. Bentley Storteboom (not pictured). His name and physique had me fooled. I thought he was 25, and Dutch.
9. Benjamin Pajak (right) played six gay characters before age 15, and sang as Harvey Milk.More after the break
10. Dakare Chatman (not pictured): The Gemstones guest star was a conservative spokesperson as a young teen, then became a LGBT ally.
11. Paxton Booth. The Coop and Cam little brother likes girls' clothes, unicorns, and cock sparring.
13.Kowen Cadorath. Played the son of the three gay Krelboynes on the Malcolm in the Middle sequel.
14. Iain Armitage: The Young Sheldon star is a musical theater fan and celebrates Pride, but hasn't exactly come out. Yet.
Left: Johnny Galecki, who would play the buddy of the grown-up Sheldon.
15. Jake Diaz (left) dates dudes, hugs Alkaio's ex, and lives with a muscleman. What else do you need to know?
17. Dashiell Messick and his twin brother Fox played the son of a homophobic mom on Fuller House and a lost toddler with two dads on Danger Force (starring Cooper Barnes, left). Plus he has a gay brother and a fabulously femme fashion sense.

16.Tristan Borders played the Young Kelvin Gemstone, pushing up the queer codes.

18. Lox Pratt turns the gay subtexts to texts in Lord of the Flies and Harry Potter. Plus he's from Cornwall.
Honorable Mention: Sergei Silney. He's not an actor, and his real name isn't Silney. But with a hunky dad like that, who can resist?
