Don't you think it's funny cause actual canon gay characters in BL manga will say "I love you" but only the shounen bromance can spew out some of the most romantic shit akin to a 19th century poet writing a letter expressing his surpressed love for his lover 😭.....
Genuniely can't tell if it's bait or not, but I'm going to treat this ask seriously anyway.
Here, have some examples of beautiful and poetic expressions of love in BL media!
I'm going to start with my favourite murder husbands, Wen Kexing and Zhou Zishu from Word of Honor/Faraway Wanderers!
This happens in episode nine, less than one third into the story- it's that early, they've known each other for like a week and are already able to tell they're meant to be. They've made their decision to be together, and over the course of the story:
They defend each other multiple times and fight side by side in multiple episodes, sometimes protecting their adopted kid/mentee Chengling as well
Zhou Zishu is willing to go against the whole martial arts society for his boyfriend. With zero hesistation, might I add.
They both know the other has done horrible things (lots of murder on both sides here) and that's not only okay, it's a big part of why they're soulmates and get each other so well!
Zhou Zishu is slowly dying (poisoned nails in his chest, long story) and Wen Kexing can and will risk his life to save him. Don't worry, they get a happy ending both in the show and the novel even if the show's last episode is behind a paywall and Netflix didn't even include it for some reason?
But enough about them, let's move on to the immortal fantasy genre boyfriends Hua Cheng and Xie Lian from Heaven Official's Blessing!
Please note how Hua Cheng is ready to accept Xie Lian in whatever state he's currently in- as a god, a fallen outcast, even grieving and angry and at his absolute lowest. He's stood by Xie Lian in his worst moments, even if at the time Xie Lian had no idea it was him.
Hua Cheng has loved Xie Lian for 800 years, ever since he was a boy Xie Lian saved from falling to his death during a procession.
Xie Lian became a god, then fell due to horrible circumstances, almost committed a war crime against another nation that destroyed his country, spend 800 years wandering the mortal realm as a poor cultivator with his powers greatly reduced, and eventually ascended to become a god again. Throughout it all, Hua Cheng loved him and did his best to help him and then find him.
They're both adorable and the definition of a power couple once they're reunited- no spoilers, but they eventually fight an incredibly powerful god side by side and win & the last scene in the story is them reuniting for good since there's no more obstacles to their immortal love.
Let's move on to my favourite Japanese BL, Our Dining Table (also available as a series that came out semi-recently, but the examples below are from the manga.)
Yutaka is a lonely salesman who meets Minoru, a restaurant worker and his much younger brother Tane grieving the death of their mother.
Yutaka and Minoru hit it off by bonding through food they cook and share. The series is incredibly heartwarming, and as seen above Yutaka becomes a much happier person thanks to both his new relationship and big brother-like bond with little Tane.
As a little bonus, the whole found family together!
This post can't be complete without Golden Stage (or Golden Terrace, as the English official translation calls it).
Fu Shen and Yan Xiaohan aren't even in love at this point! This is at the beginning of the story, when their marriage has just been arranged by the emperor and they're still bitter rivals.
Yan Xiaohan is already protective of his future husband- later on, he also builds him a mansion meant to accommodate his disability (nerve damage in both legs, which requires a wheelchair and/or crutches). They're both incredibly powerful military generals, and the emperor was an idiot thinking an arranged marriage would humiliate them.
Of course they fall in love, of course they're a power couple, of course they send each other letters through trained geese when they're separated during the war, of course they run to each other as fast as they can across a wide cold river when they're finally reunited! Of course they're important to me!
....Aaand how about some Wangxian to wrap up this post? They need no introduction, an absolutely wonderful and complex relationship in a complex fantasy/intrigue story available in several forms - the books, the animated series (as seen above), the live action series, the audio drama, there's so much!
Some of their most beautiful moments:
Lan Wangji writing a song for Wei Wuxian and naming it Wangxian. Years after it's composed, Wei Wuxian plays it and LWJ is able to recognise him even in a different body.
LWJ begs WWX to come with him to Cloud Recesses, to safety, after WWX makes himself an enemy of the whole cultivation world for protecting innocent people.
They confront the final villain together, and work together to expose his crimes. This is also when their final love confession happens, and it's hilarious- in front of everyone's salad, WWX declares he also wanted to sleep with LWJ.
Despite censorship, the animated series was still able to allude to their wedding, showing them in red wedding robes (unfortunately can't find a gif rn)
Respectfully, if you genuinely think BL doesn't have beautiful love confessions and displays of romance, you need to find better BL.

The Victimized Geese Turned Messenger Birds from Golden Stage
Submission: VICTIMS OF UNJUST WORK CONDITIONS. Fu Shen shoots them down (but doesn't kill them), heals them and gets them working as messenger geese cuz he wants to send a message to Yan Xiaohan during wartime and there were no phones in Ancient China. Good birds who Deserve Better.

I finished Golden Terrace recently and I loooooved it. It was such a fun novel, Fu Shen and Yan Xiaohan are so funny and sweet together and their dynamic is delicious.
I love the development of their relationship and how Fu Shen in particular fell into his feelings and became so possessive and protective of his wife 😵💫. And seeing the depth of Yan Xiaohan's devotion is so 😍🥹💗 10/10 great read

For who really like the "subversion of stereotypes" (no shame of other tropes, i just like variety), I feel very lucky to have known Yan Xiaohan, Wen Kexing and Yan Zhengming in danmei fandoms.
Top gay men who doesn't feel threatened if they get called wife or other fem cute nicknames, there is no toxic masculinity who coincides with the "i'll be less of a man if I get called wife/princess etc, after all I'm the top in bed so I'm the Man" mindset. They give no fuck 👌
I repeat, no shame to different dynamics but it's refreshing and nice and so real to me personally seeing also this fluid representation on mlm couples 🌈

Fu Shen: "Gege?"
"It’s okay." Yan Xiaohan lowered his head to watch him, sighing silently in his heart with a slight bow on his lips. "Call me that again and I can just give up the darkness and turn to the light for you".

LGBTQ+ Disabled Characters Showdown Round 1, Wave 2, Poll 3
A character being totally canon LGBTQ+ and disabled was not required to be in this competition. Please check qualifications and propaganda before asking why a character is included.
Check out the other polls in this wave and prior here.
Fu Shen-Golden Terrace / Huang Jin Tai
Qualifications:
Both of his legs got crushed in an avalanche (assassination attempt) so he mostly [uses a] wheelchair. The military doctors partially saved his legs but even after that he needs mobilization aid (specially made thigh high boots, kind of a prosthesis) and heavy medication (with a lot of side effects) to move around using his legs. So unless necessary, preferable method of movement is still wheelchair.
Propaganda:
Badass military General (Fu Shen) and shrewd politician (Yan Xiaohan) could never see eye to eye in political issues. The Emperor forced them into an arranged marriage after Fu Shen's 'accident' to handicap both of them even further as they were too powerful to handle. Joke's on him, they just became the most in love with each other couple in the whole country and neither the marriage nor their disabilities could stop them from getting what they wanted, be it more power, prosperity for the people, or just each other. Fu Shen's physically very strong even when he is wheelchair bound (he has stopped assassination attempts on the Emperor), and when he wears his mobility aid boots he has fought wars and lead his army to victory. But the sexiest part of him is his wit which can complement Yan Xiaohan's perfectly. The only thing that 'causes a setback in this is his sense of morality and loyalty which creates a contrast with his husband.
Yan Xiaohan is also strong and skilled in double handed swordsmanship, but his forte is psychological warfare. He has no bottom-line (except his husband) when it comes to doing things beneficial for his goal. Which is why the withdrawal flare ups caused him quite a bit of distress. These two are that couple who'll flirt with each other even in the face of death, so even their disabilities are a fuel to the flirting and teasing. One of Yan XIaohan's famous quotes is "only one of your three legs can stand up Marquis". He also hides all of Fu Shen's mobility aids (wheelchair and boots) when they have a lover's spat so he can tend to Fu Shen personally (carry him around, helps him bath, dresses him etc.) and make up in the process. On the other hand Yan Xiaohan's addiction can be partially satiated for a while by the next best thing for euphoria, i.e. sex and food. So they fool around in risky places (read: public) using that as an excuse.
Elphaba Thropp-Wicked
Qualifications:
The musical had cut out (and censored) a LOT of things from the book to keep it PG. Elphaba 100% qualifies if you go by the novel.
Propaganda:
She's trans-coded; she was emphasized to look masculine since birth, and there's an actual quote where she says she chose to be female. The book included scenes from when she was a baby, where she was shown to be neurodivergent in a way that scared her caretakers and strained her relationship with her parents.
