also, there's a lot of wlw pairings in arthuriana if you know where to look and i wish they got more focus. even in a non romantic lens. isolde/brangaine, laudine/lunette, enid/guinevere, morgan/sebile are there in medlit and their relationships are sooo complex layered and fascinating.
also, if arthur gets to have homoeroticism with his knights then so too should guinevere with her ladies.
