these are my top playlists that are well received.
if you like any of them, feel free to follow!

and i hope you like my bl manhwa recommendations from this interest stack.

Manga & Manhua & Manhwa + novels in the bl drama or psychological category that are AMAZING reads. I would highly recommend all of these.

Not your typical frail submissive bottom. These guys are badasses in there own right which means their "tops" gotta know how to be awesome without overpowering their partners. Love these dynamics! It takes some pretty amazing guys to keep up with these bottoms. These are true badasses with hearts of gold 💛

For those of you who have a weakness for the "bad boy" type look, even wothout the actual delinquent personality or yakuza background, these inked hot hunks are just what you need! Enjoy these badass tattooed ML to your heart's content!

You will find yaoi, BL, manga with a male cast who act gay and fruity but "aren't", and anything similar here. It will be a selection of those I can recommend. Be aware that some are 18+. (More will be added from time to time)

I also made an Anime stack, so check it out if you feel interested!

Boys Love Compilation (just because it's here doesn't mean it's good)

As much as some yaoi with the typical older seme and effeminate much smaller uke can have great stories, cute, passionate or endearing, I more often prefer them with mature, adult-looking pairs and partners. GBT male appearance can certainly be a range, but for manga and yaoi, mature pairs are underrepresented in my opinion. So here are some of my favorites I've completed, am reading or plan to read that involved mostly "mature pairings".

just beautiful art from BL stuff that's candy for my eyes, nothing to do with whether the story is good or bad (because i'll admit there's some bad ones here)
