List of gay male relationships in SF
This is a list of gay relationships in SF. Emphasis is on significant relationships between two (or more) well-developed male characters. The relationships must be same-sex and acknowledged as romantic/sexual (slashed homoerotic subtext, a la K/S, doesn't count) but the characters need not identify as gay. One would expect relationship scenes in the work.
