I don't read BLs, but this happens 9 times out of 10 in GLs too, and honestly as unrealistic as it might be I prefer it that way because I don't wanna see a straight couple in my queer romance. Not #heterophobic or anything, it's just when you read or watch literally any genre of a story there will ALWAYS be a straight couple or ten featured in there anyway, so why not have a billion queer couples in queer media, too? Just my personal opinion though.

(IM NOT HOMOPHOBIC IM BI AND GENUINELY CURIOUS) Why is it that literally everyone in a bl story is gay..? Obvi not talking abt the main ppl but anyone who sets their eyes on the uke just wants to get that ass like woah. I mean duh it is a BL but does every asshole they encounter just have internalized homophobia?
