Sexuality issues ⚣BL⚤ Straight ? Not anymore

This list is about SEXUALITY as it's CENTRAL PLOT. 
At first, I created this list for myself, putting in here the mangas I could relate to. But then it grew up to this.
I added the more reasonable & realistic ones at least. 
 
Others are in flat denial. some are just too cowardly while others just don't plainly understand what the hell's up with this weird attraction to their bros. 

Remember everyone,
Even the straightest spaghetti noodle bends when being boiled up

two straight guys (both in denial, pft.), but one deceptively looks effeminate. uke still cannot believe a lovers relationship with another man is possible. seme is also in a situation where he loathes crossdressers and femme gays but he still got attracted to a guy.
TBH? it makes me roll my eyes. WARN: Won't vouch for realism but uke had really thought hard and long about his sexuality & I think that good so I added it here.

OKAY. i don't get me wrong. Main story=masterpiece BUT NOT FOR THIS LIST It's an erotic romance masterpiece so I raised my expectations. It's just that. (⊙…⊙ )
But to be fair, the family quarrel get to me. But not how sexuality is treated between the MCs.
My rec: Chapter 20
ch. 20: closet gay (transgender) seme x gay uke
- minor couple's backstory. A transgender's difficult life that can happen to anyone. Touched my heart.

* gay doctor > gay pharmacist (MC) > divorcee.
#Love triangle at a pharmacy store. #sex friends
Sempai got into an accident, so MC took in the unemployed doctor as a part timer. Guy tried to seduce uke into choosing him over the cowardly sempai who is afraid to leave the "normal" het lifestyle.
One thing i can say is uke made the right choice

divorced "straight" seme x gay uke.
Why does it has a low rating? This manga is very good w/ a thought-provoking plot about homophobia w/ some realism. It does not ROMANTICISE gay-in-denial BL.
As I read on, I think Sone has smelt gayness on Mitsui all the while after the #reencounter that is why he persisted through the depressed divorcee's abuse & self-destruction mode. I felt so grateful for Sone's existence in his life.

gay x gay.
I'm inlove with the title. The irony is how he really don't like the skirt/dress uniform but as if a statement to the world, he kept wearing that uniform like an armor.
uke already out to mom at the start.
One of the best age gap manga. Talks about sexuality as well that gay=/=trans. Slow burn mutual attraction, boy's met his first crush.

Wow, this is nice. An actual sexuality oneshot by a bara mangaka. A story about narrow-minded society, acceptance, and family love
- (official summary) ordinary Japanese man who decides to tell his parents he's gay, and the family drama that follows.

Thank you for this list! I'm going through a 4year 'phase' where I don't know who I am or if it even matters if I should know.

*sings "Let it go, let it go". You'll figure it out. If you are not comfortable talking about it with people you know, there are nice people in good places like reddit and yahoo answers (if it's still alive)

as someone who struggled with finding my sexuality, lists like these are amazing! I love yaoi that actually deal with this issue in stead of just ignoring it
