The conversation around BL is so interesting to me. I recently went to a film festival where two professors of mine had made GL movies. These professors were cis heterosexual males, and it was just a coincidence they both happened upon the same subject matter. It did made me think about to the impulse to make romances without the gender you identify as the center of the story. I think for a lot of cis heterosexual people who are so hemmed in by gender norms, it can really be freeing to work with two characters of the same gender.
