    I think it's pretty straight forward: who is your gay, lesbian, bi, trans, etc. hero?

    I don't know, Oscar Wilde perhaps, as a personal hero who happened to be LGBTQ.

    But generally I don't like the idea of idealizing one individual over all the others. Many nameless queer folk have struggled and sacrificed over the decades and centuries to achieve the progress we have today.

    Oscar Wilde as well, and Alfred Douglas before he got all 'Religion saved me from sin'.

    Alright, people are doing multiple people (wow, that sounds suggestive):

    This is a list of LGBT people I find admirable through them being LGBT (as opposed to only admiring them for what they do)

    1. Ellen
    2. KaiserNeko
    3. Freddie Mercury
    4. Elton John
    5. Panti Bliss
    6. George Takei
    7. Billie Jean King
    8. Gaga
