HALLMARK PREMIER S FIRST LGBTQ HOLIDAY MOVIE WH A GAY LEAD UPLE

The new, LGBTQ+ holiday films and seri are gog to make the yuleti hella gay this holiday season! * hallmark gay movies *

However, ’s a good first step that there are even enough movi for me to create this list of Hallmark movi wh gay characters. Most gay characters and upl the movi are whe and male.

My only knock on the movie is how Hallmark attempted to market as the work’s first movie wh gay leads.
