If a character is painted as soooo desirable purely because he's a sub/bottom, without him being given other character traits that heighten his desirability, AND if the narrative emphasis is entirely focused on said sub/bottom's desirability, without there being reciprocal focus on how intensely desirable the dom/top is, then I tend to feel the same way as you do, OP.

OTOH, I feel like BOTH characters in a ship being painted as highly desirable - especially to each other, but also to the world at large - is an extremely common if not standard element of romance erotica regardless of whether it's queer or het. The mutual desirability of the characters ensures that no matter how the reader identifies and no matter what they like themselves, the story fulfills the fantasy of being special and desired and valued, while ALSO fulfilling the fantasy of getting to be with a partner who is special and incredible and highly desirable.
