Boys' love

fiction genre that depicts homoerotic relationships between male characters

Danmei (; also known as BL) is a genre of Chinese literature and other fictional media that features homoerotic relationships between male characters. Derived from Japanese boys' love and influenced by Western slash fiction, danmei is a diverse genre that first emerged online in the late 1990s. Danmei works are primarily hosted online as web fiction, and they are typically consumed by heterosexual women, but also consumed by bisexual and gay individuals. People in China generally use the term yuandan () to refer to danmei, though it actually stands for "original danmei".
