Trying to look up some novels on Amazon that feature M/M relationships in... not “the queer experience” style stories (as in “centered on a M/M relationship without it being about these characters being gay).

It is awkward as fuck to find ones that publish in paperback (because no Kindle) AND aren’t with covers I’d never ever walk out of the house carrying, and then there are the ones I have to disqualify on the grounds of Omegaverse (...you know, I don’t think I’m ever going to unassociate that entire genre - which wasn’t my thing in the first place - from the lawsuit, even if that happened because of het writing... Ye gods what even is the world we live in).

Also have to sideeye that these all seem to have female writers, like... Don’t gay/bi men get to write about our own experiences? Answer my own question: I remember a few years back, some post going around had someone who’d been in the erotica editing biz for a while and actually said that they were told by their boss that what gay/bi men were writing wasn’t what the female audience wanted, which... *deep sigh*

Still, dammit, I need to put some actual books about gay people into my wishlist cuz I’m kinda having a hard time dealing with all the straightness in my media right now...
