Thanks for the friend request

That's a pretty direct question and the more I read it, the more I laugh because it assumes that only gay guys and women watch BL, which is probably mostly true but I find it amusing regardless. To prove the point, I do fall in one of the two categories-- I am a gay guy lol.

I think I could really ramble about BL being taboo for guys, but I will try to keep it short (no promises).

It is first important to know that BL is usually written by women, for women. Most BL consumers are women. In this way, men aren't really meant to or accounted for by companies when producing BL. So I think it is, in a way, intrinsically designed to be taboo for guys.

Socially, men, especially straight men, face many expectations for behavior and how to act, what they can enjoy, and many other "rules" that govern how a man "should" be. Feminism has really helped women in breaking down these expectations in the past century (A very basic example is women wearing pants... something that in the past, would have been socially unacceptable for women and would make her face harsh judgment from others), but men do not have the same luxury (a very basic example is men can not, without facing social judgement, wear skirts, dresses, etc... despite women being allowed in modern society to do "manly" things). I think people should be able to do what they want regardless of gender so long that nobody gets hurt.

I digress, these social expectations for men make it taboo for men, particularly straight men, to consume BL media. This cannot be denied. I don't think it should be taboo for straight men to consume BL though. Anyone that enjoys romance can read/watch BL. I'm gay but still watch straight romance shows and even some GL... I just like romance... it doesn't really matter what gender the people in the relationship are. My manga list is mostly BL, and that is because I like trashy BL with hot guys, not really because I'm looking to read a groundbreaking piece of literature. My favorite anime ever is Nana, a straight romance drama. Which kind of proves that for me at least, the orientation of the couple is unimportant

I hope this answered your question, if not, feel free to inquire again with me lol.
