Idk I'd say make them read some stories where the dudes are almost gay for each other without being cannon... Then slowly go for plot heavy shounen ai.. to slice of life comedy shounein ai then those 5-6 chapter japanese bl, where they have sex at the last chapter but it ain't smut but romantic...
By that time if are into it they'll find the rest for themselves
If you were trying to make someone get into bl manga what would be your list of recs? Please dont send smut heavy stories I have to ease them into it.
