Well, maybe it's actually a bit of fetishization, but I think there's more to it. Mm novels often show much deeper internal conflicts between characters. The way characters frequently deal with issues concerning prejudice and their own need to overcome a self-imposed closeted life only brings a more meaningful perspective to a love story. (This is only my opinion. I read any kind of romance, but mm and mmf are often more interesting than regular mf.)
It will probably take some time to convince me that it’s fetishization, but even if it is I don’t see how it’s inherently harmful to gay men. Doesn’t mean there aren’t good arguments or examples out there, just that I haven’t yet been presented with them. As far as I’m concerned, writers can knock themselves out writing about whatever the fuck they want, so long as they understand that if they write about certain taboo topics they’ll (probably, hopefully) get called out.
