Yeah, and I think that exactly nails down my objection to it. Because the fact that some readers have a different response to books that I write in which a m/m (or f/f, I do those too) relationship exists than books in which all the relationships are opposite sex does not change the protocols I use to write those books.

And that's why it gets up my nose. Because as far as I'm concerned, this relationship *isn't* any different from any of the other relationships I write.

:-P
