Actor Wil Wheaton, known for his longtime role as kid genius Wesley Crusher on Star Trek: The Next Generation, welcomed pride month this weekend by giving a special shout-out to his queer fans.

Wheaton, 48, took to Facebook to publicly acknowledge the number of Star Trek fans that had a crush on the actor–or his character–during the show’s run.

“Over the years, I’ve met several men who have told me that their childhood crush on Wesley Crusher was a big part of them coming out and living their lives with joy and love and pride,” Wheaton wrote. “I can not even begin to tell you how much this means to me. I love it so much that I, and some of my work, were there for people (when I didn’t even know it was happening) who needed a safe place.”

“Happy Pride,” he concluded, “you lovely and perfect humans. I, and Wesley Crusher, see you, and we absolutely adore you.”

As the post went viral, Wheaton’s wife, Anne Wheaton, also weighed in on Twitter.

Over the years, I've had men tell me they had a crush on Wesley Crusher and then immediately apologize to me for it. Don't apologize! We both love that his character helped you figure out who you are. And I love that Wil wrote a FB post about it.

“Over the years,” she wrote, “I’ve had men tell me that they had a crush on Wesley Crusher and then immediately apologize to me for it! Don’t apologize! We both love that his character helped you figure out who you are. Happy Pride, friends.”

Wheaton’s on-screen Star Trek mom, actress Gates McFadden, also voiced her support.

“Proud of my spaceson for writing this!,” McFadden tweeted. “Love you for posting space daughter-in-law.”

The Wesley Crusher character had a slight habit of getting annoying on Trek. Truth be told, that didn’t stop us from crushing on the character as adolescents ourselves. We have a feeling Wheaton’s pride wishes will make rewatching Wesley-centric episodes of the show a bit more enjoyable.

What does it say about Wesley that he was broken by the broken buck of the Enterprise?

Wesley was an absolute faggot and Wil Wheaton wishes his gay fans would fuck him in the ass.

 

[Chan the Wizard]

Literally no one has had their sexual awakening to Wil Wheaton.

Even the vilest child predator looked at Wheaton and got a limp dick.

He's really hideous now. I wish the enterprise was real, so we could throw him into a black hole.

 

[Damocles_Sword]

Sorry sailors, youre not going to get the key to his chastity away from Felicia Day.

I just wish I could rate Wheaton's comment "optimistic." Of all the people to have a gay crush on on TV of that era- hell, even on that show- and he thinks Wesley was it? Dream on.

Wil is either being dumb, or lying out of shame. Gays didn't crush on him, they wanted to crush him, like the rest of us. I wonder if is normals and the gays and whites and blacks, all of us, together in thinking Wil is a massive faggot.

I also take issue with people calling him a cuck. A cuck is someone who manipulates his lover into a destructive BDSM game that will almost always kill a relationship.

Wil is a spiritual eunuch. No cock cage is needed, he sits and knits in front of his television whilst imagining he is being interviewed as he dreams of a life that he knows he was never going to have. His "wife" lays in bed upstairs, searching the internet whilst daydreaming of a man who could make her feel like a woman and not a mother.

This has been your journey into the mind of Wil.

So some gay people have shitty taste? Why is this news?

 

[KiwiFuzz]

I bet some pedos did.

Maybe in Stand By Me

Also, nobody is talking about the true queer icon of Next Generation?

Because humiliation is part of the fetish

 

[PuffyGroundCloud]

I feel bad for the gay boys for having a bad taste in men

 

[Fomo Hoire]

I wonder what's more common, irl gays crushing on him or fujoshi making fictional gays crush on / fuck / rape him.

There's no bigger attention whore than Wil Wheaton. Even Pride Month has to be about him, one way or another.

“Over the years,” she wrote, “I’ve had men tell me that they had a crush on Wesley Crusher and then immediately apologize to me for it! Don’t apologize! We both love that his character helped you figure out who you are. Happy Pride, friends.”

Wesley in TNG was a teenager, these fags had a crush on a child.

 

[Iceland Heavy]

They probably meant the future version of Wesley and Wil thought they were talking about him.

Lol he braggin bout bein paedobait

 

[Troonologist PhD]

This doesn't surprise me. Lot's of gays and fujos have terrible taste in men.

 

[Whatsup bud?]

When I was growing up I thought his Stand By Me costar, River Phoenix was cuter. Would probably have a much better career than him were he still alive
