Link to Kurt's d*ck
Mr. Young (2011-13), on Disney XD, featured Brendan Meyer as a genius who graduates from college at age 15 and, instead of taking a professorship at MIT and working on the string theory of the universe, becomes a high school science teacher. In standard teencom style, he has a best friend, a crush, and a bully -- all students at the school -- and hilarity ensues. And a lot of tongue-lolling, jaw-dropping "Girl of My Dreams" heteronormative ideology
But it wasn't totally execrable. There was a gay-subtext bromance between the buddies, and the bully Slab (Kurt Ostlund) only expressed heterosexual interest once. Plus he had some gender-atypical traits that key in to gay stereotypes.
I've checked the adult careers of the three main male actors, and it looks like Slab is the only one with gay potential. So let's take a look:
Our guy went on to play more slabs in heteronormative projects:
Hothead in Mark & Russell's Wild Ride (2015): two high schoolers try to win the Girl of Their Dreams or something.
Oggy in Unseen (2016): A family man who's invisible searches for his missing daughter. It's not a comedy.
But then he went full-on bear to play gay-vague or "no expression of heterosexual interest" characters, such as a comic book fan who is targeted by a ghost for stealing important issues in an episode of Supernatural (2018).
Soldiers in Project Blue Book (2019) and The Terror (2019).
Strong Boy in 15 episodes of Snowpiercer (2020-2022), about a train that carries the last survivors of humanity after the world becomes a frozen wasteland. He is brain-addled from his trauma, but eventually recovers, joins the resistance (there's always a resistance), and sacrifices himself to save his friends.
More after the break
A Christmas romcom, Mistletoe Connection (2023), but Markian Tarasiuk gets the Girl. Kurt plays his gay best friend.
How to Rob a Bank (2024) is a documentary about Scott Scurlock, who robbed 19 banks in Seattle during the 1990s. Kurt plays Mark Biggins, his guilt-ridden accomplice in several of the robberies. I can't tell from the plot synopsis if they were a gay couple, but no girlfriends appear.
Kurt fills his instagram with bodybuilding photos, and has perfected the gay clone look. No relationships mentioned, no "I'm gay" statements, but it's sort of obvious.
I didn't find a lot on cruising sites, but one shot looks interesting.
And of course there's always his backside.
