    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    That's actually kind of a murky and controversial question. There's overlap, which should be fine, but it resulted in a lot of pointless rivalry and infighting, so... Generally spreaking, bisexual is attraction to two or more genders, where one of them is your own. Pansexual is attraction to...

    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    But that also filters out pure GL with bisexual protagonists.

    Irn Bru - A fizzy drink with a distinctive orange colour and a kind of indescribable and sharp (but nice) taste. Clootie Dumpling - One of the most delicious foods on Earth. According to this article I'm reading, it's generally made from sultanas and currants, breadcrumbs, flour, sugar, spice...

    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    The Founder of Diabolism, a very popular BL, is mostly about mystery and problem-solving, with a relationship that only comes to fruition at the very end. There's nothing but ship teasing and slow-burn development beforehand. However, it's held up as one of the best BL around.

    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    The suitability of that depends on the context. If there's a GL pairing but they're not one of the protagonists, it gets tagged with "Girl's Love Subplot" rather than the GL genre.

    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    I'm pansexual, but I personally read GL to read purely about love between women and escape all the hetero stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with stories that have multiple love interests of different genders, but it's rare that I want to read them. A Boy-Girl Romance tag would be greatly...

    Is anyone else bothered by the large amount of gl novels containing het?

    I do wish it was easier to distinguish stories that just happen to have bisexual protagonists from novels that aren't going to be purely GL. That way readers wouldn't be mislead so often. As for people using the GL genre when there's no GL... That's a definite misuse of the genre tag. I can't...

    Are you 'Pantser' or a 'Plotter'?

    Kind of a mix, I guess? I do a lot of planning beforehand, building the world, fleshing out the characters, and planning out roughly where I want the story to go and what scenes I think I'll need. But some of those notes stay just in my head, and I'll adapt flexibly to the needs of the story...

    Feedback needed for [synopsis] and [prologue]

    Oh, this looks like a really interesting story~! However... I feel like your synopsis reads quite flat. You technically have everything there to indicate a great story, but the delivery feels more like a disinterested attempt to describe a story concept rather than an author pitching their...

    I have a slight predicament

    This one probably isn't for me, then. For some reason "His Little Pirate" had me thinking that this would be a BL novel. Maybe because the title it's referencing originally refers to the main character? But thank you for telling me about your novel so that I could decide. And good luck with...

    I have a slight predicament

    I can't really provide a full list of everything I search for, but I do like fairytales. I particularly like mermaids and the sea. I'm actually running a fairytale adaptation anthology event for the Yuri Garden here...

    I have a slight predicament

    Romance isn't a problem for me - the main genre I read is GL (lesbian romance). I'm also a veteran reader of BL, but I'm pickier about the types I'll read these days. I'm much more interested in the type of story itself. Romance just means a focus on love. Other than that, the story and the...
