A GAY FULLER HOE WRER DISH ON THE SHOW'S QUEER CHARACTERS
I’m talkg about Max Fuller, the eight-year-old middle child of DJ Fuller (Candace Cameron Bure), a character that was almost one of the youngt (or possibly the youngt) gay kid TV history. Instead, Fuller Hoe created a ltle kid that lets them make all sorts of gay jok whout actually givg the show’s gay dience (which most fely has, nsirg jt how massive a h the show is) any reprentatn.

So that brgs me to my next pot: is ludicro for me to pontifite about whether or not a 9-year-old actor is gay or not. I will addrs naysayers and head-shakers and say that, gog om personal experience, I knew that I was gay when I was 9 (my massive csh on Jurassic Park’s Alan Grant still stands today).
My hband knew he was gay when he was 9. Most gay men I’ve met have always known, even if they didn’t really know until way later life (I fally me out to myself at 21).
