Mhmm, see my other comments. It's one of my major pet peeves. There are no young, attractive gay characters who are just regular dudes and not super dramatic/femmy that don't get killed off or made a minor part of the story and who _regularly_ show love for each other/are affectionate without it being used as a joke etc.
These sorts of gay characters are so, so extremely rare.
