Is it heterophobia?
I once commented on an IG post shipping two male characters, saying that one of them is canonically hetero/straight, he literally had a child with a woman. And the poster replied kys

I'm single af and enjoy bl too, but I still enjoy good straight romance...

    Lol no it isnt. Sometimes we as readers just want to read about a character just doing regular stuff. Sometimes when an author writes romance into it they mess up the whole flow of the story while all we wanted to see is adventure or whatever

    Most of the adventure/shounen manga/manhwa I read treats romance as side unimportant stuff, but happens because life usually has some of it. Eg. Dragon ball, one piece, Naruto, bleach, solo leveling, soldier becomes monarch, greatest civil engineer, ... It doesn't ruin the series. But comments avoiding a series if it has any bit of romance like they have trauma of it. The series tags/genre is pretty reliable here. Like chill, we can skim pass the icky bits to enjoy the rest of the story.

    do you skip suicide hunter because of the romance in it?

    Might be my prejudice but normally the adventure harem I can't tolerate is Chinese manhua. Korean Manhwa harem usually when it's smut but that's what I sign up for.

    ...lol in reality and some BL non straight dudes have gotten into relationships or drunken one night stands with women and had kids. It didn't make them any less not straight, but I get what you mean.
