I want to buy bl merch.... but what do i tell my homophobic family if they see it LMAO

I have a shit bunch of gay books, they don’t really show it on the cover except for one lesbian book cover, everyday I’m terrified they see it LOLOL

If its books, you could get book sleeves to hide it.

If possible I'll always aim for books/merch that don't explicitly say it's lgbt or substitutes romance for "friends/roommates" (ex: Song of Achilles, been on my shelf for years and my homophobic family never once questioned it)
