Who run the world ? GAYS !

That is one awful title.
Anyway, I wanted to make a list out of those mangas addressing the hardships of being gay, and the confusion in one's process of finding his own sexuality.
I try to gather here yaoi mangas that go against clichés, stereotypical plots and the homophobic/sexist/rape tropes that any yaoi reader has already come across. I only put in lists mangas I grade 4 or 5 stars (and usually completed) so you might find very popular as well as almost unknown stories here.

Smells Like Green Spirit

Author(s): Nagai Saburou
Genre(s): School Life / Yaoi / Psychological / Drama

This author can be a little awkward at times, but you can find some great second degree humor in this ! But most importantly, it is so on topic with this list. It has a great view on bullying and rejection in general, and makes us wonder just how can people go and how much are they ready to hide of themselves because of the pressure society puts on them.

This is slow pace kind of story (which is probably a positive point to me) and I just love how Oosawa, single and hard-working father comes to term with a new vision of his own sexuality when getting closer to restaurant customer Yoshioka, openly gay and seriously in love with Oosawa.

This is just too sweet.
But the notes by the author at the end of the book make me question her views of homosexuality... (?)

This is a great series about boys dealing with the fact that they are gay, their relationships, sometimes tragic, the passion but also the angst of love...
A "down on earth" story, and a great (and long) read.

This one is not that oriented toward the issues of homosexuality, but I think it is still really sweet and a great love story so I wanted to put this here. Also because this is my list and I can do what I want *evil smile*

Bonus point for the drag queen dad.

Author(s): Old Xian, Moss
Genre(s): Shounen Ai / Slice Of Life / Tragedy / One Shot

Okay this one is kind of off topic. But hear me out ! I mean... read me out !
This list is about taking a stand. And this oneshot by the wonderful Old Xian for the drawing and Moss for the script is just doing that, taking a stand. I don't know if I could expose the issue mentioned in here without spoiling the surprise for you, but do read it. This is actually happening, and it should concern all of us who live on this beautiful Earth.

This reminds me a bit of the feeling I have while reading Junketsu Drop.
Two boys coming to term with their feeling and sexuality. Sweet. Cute. Read it.

This one almost shocked me at the beginning. It was awkward, to say the least. But it turns out into a great love story, even though being who you are can even cost you your very own friends.

What can a LIST do?

You may feel your favorite manga should be gathered together into distinct categories for your own reference and, now, you can do this with a LIST. After you've created your list or lists, you can proudly recommend them to other manga fans to showcase and share your taste in manga.

Haha thanks ! I had doubts at times and thought of changing it. I'm relieved I'm not the only one laughing at my lame jokes.
