Okay, there are people who read bl because of the fetish gay stuff. However, there are a bunch of people who just read the story because of plot, fluff, etc. Things in bl stories wouldn't happen, if it wasn't for the couple liking each other or being involve with each other.

Ughh I'm gay and luckily I have wonderful parents and brother that accept me, but it doesn't mean that I haven't heard some really terrible stuff.
