I posted about this above but for me it's because seeing guys being emotionally vulnerable is rare. In typical romance movies it seems like it's all about the guy "winning" the girl and he might be like "Oh, I'm in love" for a moment or two but by the end it's like: She's kissing him! That means he WINS! So, when it's two guys they have no choice but to be a little vulnerable, and be all mushy with each other, though it's difficult for them because they haven't been socialized that way. Most m/m fic is really good at drawing that stuff out and filling it with UST, which I also like.

Also, there's the fact that I started reading dudeslash before I fully figured . And it helped me a lot at the time, because there wasn't much f/f and well, I was confused.

I wish to give this comment a big "YES!".

I like how m/m fanfic has both sides of the pairing being a bit vulnerable, mushy, working out their feelings, and it's not as apparently one-sided win (sometimes it is still someone wins - the one who realizes their feelings first and is trying to gain the love of the other - but even with that sort of dynamic, it still feels less one-sided).

Personally I love it when they both know they're in love but they're afraid to say anything so they dance around it for like a million years, but at the same time they keep cuddling and going on dates and holding hands in the winter-time and you know what I don't care if it ever gets resolved, sometimes when I re-read stuff I skip the ending.
