Any Spanish BL or GL readers here?

Hi there! First time on the forum here!

I want to know how you all refer to the BL and GL book genres in Spanish.

For example, in Thai, we call it "Y book / Y novel" (นิยายวาย) because it comes from Yaoi and Yuri (I guess?? lol).

That's why I'm curious how other communities refer to this genre, especially in Spanish, lol. But feel free to share how it's called in your languages too!

Thank you <3

There is no term in spanish to describe BL and GL, since those terms are technically a neologism. We simply use yaoi or yuri. Older people that aren't into the anime/manga world and obiously don't know those terms would just name them Lesbian/Homosexual romance book/novel/etc.

I've never thought about that question before. My native language is Spanish, but Amor de Chicos y Amor de Chicas is the only thing that comes to mind. (Although obviously, it will always be BL and GL).
