With MM romance as both characters are men the roles are much harder to define, both men can be whatever the writer wants them to be. I like that. I like not knowing what kind of story I'll read. That's the best way I can describe it.
Why don't you try one, you never know you might like it. Josh Lanyon is an author I would highly recommend for a newbie to the genre, he writes mystery detective type stories. Stranger on the Shore is a standalone recent story that I really enjoyed.

Interesting. I can see that. I'd be fearful to read one though! Lol.
