Thinking back, I can remember a few het fics I found actually hot - or interesting - so now I'm wondering why it holds so little appeal for me.

I'm wondering if it might have something to do with the fact that I really enjoy character whumping and extremely messed up relationship dynamics, and that feels … to close to life in het? I'm not sure. But when I think of some of the fics I enjoy most in m/m, reading those same situations in m/f would cause me to back button rather than UNF. …and thinking some more, I've read those situations in f/f and really enjoyed it. Hmmm.
