    Ooo good question! I think I have a particular favourite which would be Juliet from Heavenly creatures. The film although dark helped me make sense of my own sexuality in my teenage years.
    What’s yours?

    Probably Simon and Victor from the Love Simon universe, and the male leads from HBO Max’s Looking show. I really appreciate how their only personality trait isn’t being gay. As someone who’s still on their journey of self discovery when it comes to liking the idea of being with a man it’s comforting to see those characters presented as real people. Opposed to just gay stereotypes.

    I like your choices, I definitely agree with Victor from Love Victor. Though I must say my all time favourites are:

    Santana Lopez from Glee- tbh she helped me come out
    Brittany from Glee- I just love her for so many reasons
    Unique from Glee- she is just a really inspirational character.
    Kurt Hummel from Glee- I know he's stereotypically gwy and I admit I didn't like that he was really stereotypical at first but it's grown on me.
    Blaine Anderson from Glee- I love how he's not stereotypically gay.
    (Sorry, I'm a Glee fan)
    But I also like
    Casey from Atypical- she is just awesome, I admire her. She has so many insecurities but hides them by joking.
    And Seb from HSMTMTS- he is just the cutest.

    Sorry for giving loads of answers haha...

    No need to apologize for listing that many and being a glee fan. This is a open place to share your opinions freely. Two more that came to mind after I made my picks are David and Patrick from schitts creek. Seeing their relationship slowly develop was a fantastic experience.

    Your welcome, my mom got me into watching Schitts Creek because she thought I would enjoy it. We had lots of fun with its characters. Each one bringing their own unique charm to every scene.

    Jake from Tales Of The City (2019). I just recently watched it and I could identify with the guilt he felt for realizing he was gay and having a girlfriend. I also like Patrick from Schitts Creek and Ryan from Special.

    Wallace Wells in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Shows that a gay guy can be a jerk.

    Loki and Sylvie from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Loki was always a great character and Sylvie was a great addition in the Loki TV series and it was a nice touch that Loki came out as bi, with a strong hint that Sylvie is, too, even if it wasn't explicit.

    Both Patrick and David from Schitt's Creek as well as Patrick and Kevin from Looking have all played a big role in me becoming comfortable with my sexuality. Oh and also Quentin from the Magicians resonated with me.

    Most recently, Charlie and Nick in Heartstopper have been really soothing for my hurt inner teenager.

    Somehow I missed this and I'm disappointed I did.

    It wasn't a major thing, which was actually nice, just something he acknowledged about himself in a moment in passing.

    Wait was it that scene on the train? If so I need to rewatch that.
