It might be surprising that some countries have emerged the film industry with queer contents especially, East Asian countries since they are the least countries accepting LGBTQ+ community. One of which is BL. The term stands for "Boys' Love." The said genre was created mainly for the teenager girls as the audience, but as time goes by, it was then referred as a hentai subgenre that depicts romantic relationships between men. Although there is no definite standard of the above-mentioned genre, bl manga and/or bl hentai feature young hentai characters, often around their 20s or sometimes even younger. They are literally hot anime guys, who are effeminate in nature by having no facial and body hair. Bl hentai depicts and emphasizes sexual engagement that can happen between two handsome anime boys. One of both of them can be sexy anime gay boys. This gained popularity in a sense that not all people are attracted to the opposite sex, but rather with the same-sex. The main attraction of bl hentai could be its lack of judgement. Seeing hot anime boys and gay anime boys pursue their sexual relationships in spite of socially defined gender roles in the real-world, shows a favorable satisfaction whatever your sexual orientation is. For some readers and viewers, bl hentai can help them accept the real parts of their own identity and sexuality, especially with that of the homosexuals. It gives a generous openness and acceptance of themselves that people think they have to hide it from the society. Bl hentai recognizes something that can be built and developed between hot anime boys and gay anime boys, and show that it is not something to be ashamed of so that a lot of people can feel supported. While LGBTQ+ community is being supported nowadays, there are countries that are still firmly against it. Thus, bl hentai can aid their insecurities and manifest their sexual fantasies with the same sex.
